Relax on Kent Island in a 4 Bedroom Home w/Waterview!

Booked this for Father’s Day weekend with my two kids. I think we were hoping for a kind of “dip your toes in” Chesapeake escape — something between Lake Anna and Ocean City. Saw “waterview” and figured maybe we’d land somewhere special. That wasn’t quite what we got. The house itself is clean and quiet. No issues with check-in. The upstairs deck is the one defining feature — nice for sitting out at night. But beyond that, this felt more like a peaceful neighborhood retreat than a Bay experience. You’re near the water, sure — but there’s no beach, no boardwalk, and no direct access unless you go looking. We eventually found one small patch of sand down the road — clearly managed by the HOA — that seemed to be the unofficial community access point. Just a tiny patch of sand and the open bay. There were other small misses. The listing mentioned complimentary wine — but it was mysteriously not place there ahead of our visit. Host apologized but never made good. Additionally, was hoping for a guidebook with a list of local tips, something to help you unlock the Chesapeake; didn’t get even a suggestion of where to eat or fish. Meanwhile, the host could be described as over communicative — constant Vrbo pings morning and evening with reminders about check out, etc. Appreciated the overstated ‘welcome’ and enthusiasm but really killed the vibe at times. Still, we made the most of it. Got crab up the road and used the fire pit for smores. Overall good weekend.

Very comfortable

Amazing house near sea although there is no local beach around. Huge space with court yard. Nice hosting.

We had a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful throughout, making everything smooth and stress-free. The house itself was a great place to stay. It is clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

The host is simply amazing, so attentive and response time was the quickest of all the numerous VRBO’s I’ve stayed at. Highly recommend 10/10!

This home is in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood with a view of the Bay (at somewhat of a distance). There is a nice big back yard giving the property plenty of privacy. The host is very responsive!

Wonderful home and host. Very easy to check-in and communication was excellent.

We had a great stay! The property has everything we needed and host was easy to communicate with

Perfect for our weekend stay. Checkin was easy and communication with the owner was great! Definitely would stay again. Kentmoor restaurant was awesome. Filled with locals who were friendly and welcoming! Food was great!

Excellent experience.

Can’t beat that sunset. Beautiful area and comfy house.

I had a fantastic stay in Stevensville! The house was cozy, clean, and exactly as described. It had all the essentials for a comfortable visit, and the location was perfect for a peaceful getaway. The host was attentive, friendly, and made sure I had everything I needed to feel at home. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches around the house that made it feel welcoming. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay, and I would definitely return in the future!

A most comfortable rental! Clean, roomy, and a well equipped kitchen. TV…all the channels you could ever want.. a great rental!!

We had a great weekend on Kent Island. We loved the area. It was so family friendly. We had lots of young children in our group, and this house worked great for us. The inside was nice with modern, but minimal decor, which was perfect for toddlers. The fenced in backyard was also just what we needed to let them run around.

The host Adam stayed in constant communication with me and answered all of my questions in a timely manner. The house was beautiful, spacious. My children ages 3&7 loved it! And playing in the insanely huge back yard! I would recommend this home and host to anyone looking to stay on the anywhere near Kent Island.

we were pleased with the whole experience

We'd stay there again but with modified expectations based on our experience. The 'water view' is quite distant and obtuse. The water is hundreds of yards away, and separated from the house by several suburban style homes and an unpaved road.

Place was clean and welcoming.

I had a group of 9 stay here and we all slept very comfortably, cooked all our meals and spent most of our time on the back porch, or inside watching movies. Adam was great and super helpful and the place was very nice and comfortable.

My children and grandchildren loved staying together in one house. We were able to play outdoors and there was space to socialize and play indoors. We were a group of 11 and I felt it was a bit small for all of us. Great location for what we were looking for.
