Sunset River Cottage

Elkton, Maryland, United States

This waterfront romantic nautical cottage will not disappoint. Nestled along the peaceful shoreline of the Elk River, Sunset River Cottage offers a front-row seat to some of the most breathtaking sunsets in the Chesapeake Bay area. With year-round water views, cozy charm, and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the perfect escape for couples looking for romance, friends gathering for a weekend getaway, or anyone craving a slower pace surrounded by nature.brbrFrom the moment you step inside, you will be greeted by the warmth and character only a true cottage can offer. This isn’t the Ritz-Carlton, it is a quirky, beautiful waterfront retreat where charm matters more than chandeliers and comfort is found in the little details. It is meant for guests who appreciate simple pleasures, stunning views, and a relaxed atmosphere, not for fancy, pretentious travelers seeking luxury resort amenities. Nautical touches, airy colors, and large windows bring the water indoors, while soft lighting creates a calm and relaxed vibe. The open living space is perfect for curling up with a good book, sharing a bottle of wine, or simply watching the river sparkle in the afternoon sun.brbrThe fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at your own pace, whether it is a romantic dinner for two or a casual brunch with friends. The dining table is perfectly positioned to capture panoramic river views, making every meal feel extra special.brbrThe bedroom is a peaceful retreat with soothing tones and a cozy cottage feel that invites restful sleep. The bathroom is antique and quirky, featuring a charming soaking tub with a shower and a one-of-a-kind custom shell sink that adds character to the space. During the summer season, guests can also enjoy a refreshing outdoor shower surrounded by nature, perfect after a swim in the river.brbrStep outside and you will discover the heart of Sunset River Cottage, the private backyard patio overlooking the water. It is the perfect spot to sip wine as the sky explodes in shades of orange, pink, and purple. The fire pit invites laughter and storytelling under the stars, while the direct waterfront access means you can swim, kayak, paddleboard, fish, or simply dip your toes in the Elk River whenever the mood strikes. Swimming is a lot of fun here, and guests are welcome to bring their own kayak, paddleboard, and fishing gear to make the most of the river.brbrLocated just minutes from Chesapeake City, you will be close to waterfront dining, boutique shops, and seasonal festivals. Explore the charming streets, take a boat tour, or indulge in fresh seafood before returning to your peaceful riverside hideaway.brbrWhether you are here for romance, friendship, or simply to slow down, Sunset River Cottage delivers a memorable waterfront escape. It is a little quirky, a lot beautiful, and entirely unforgettable, where every sunset feels like it was painted just for you. Book your stay and let the Elk River work its magic.

Relax by the campfire with your partner or close friend and craft a delicious meal with the cooking essentials provided by us. Don't sweat the packing, simply bring a cooler and clothes and prepare to enjoy yourself on this little farm oasis.brThe spacebrDisclaimers:br+ There is a beautiful stone home on the same property. Three lovely gentlemen (including my father) live there. They are very friendly and kind.br+ We did our best to seal the dome but there may be bugs because of the proximity to nature.br+ We have a compost toilet we will send videos and instruction on how to use. We ask you follow the direction perfectly for the best experience. It's not hard just different.br+ It can get very hot (summer) or cold (winter) in the dome because of the lack of insulation. Please prepare for this.br+ There is a main road about 1/2 a mile away which can cause some background noise during the night. We provide sleeping earplugs for those who prefer more quiet.br+ During the cold month of the year, we may need to turn the water off leading from the house. This will cause the shower to be unavailable. There will still be drinking water available from a water jug in the dome. We are working on a solution to the shower. Thanks!brbrSTRAWBERRY HILL DOME/ BEDROOMbr+ 12 Memory Foam King Size Bedbr+ Lux Hotel Sheets and Pillowsbr+ Star-gazing windows, so you can greet blue skies, watch the rain during a storm and peer at the stars at nightbr+ Japanese Tea Table for mindful practicesbr+ Games and Books for nature loversbrbrKITCHEN / COOKINGbr+ Weber Propane Grill (3 burners, grill tools included)br+ Campstove (2 burners)br+ Outdoor Sinkbr+ All the appliances of a basic kitchen (olive oil + spices, cooking and eating utensils, cutting boards, knives, pans, pot, plates, bowls)br+ Coffee, Tea, Sugar, Creamer, etc.brHowever, we DO NOT have a refrigerator or cooler on site, but you could get fresh groceries or ice within 15 min.brbrBATHROOMbrIt's outdoors, situated under the shade and protection of pine trees.br+ Compost Toilet (great for Earth, and not as scary as it sounds :) -- don't worry we provide instructions on how to use this, and it doesn't stink!)br+ Hot Water for Showeringbr+ Public Goods Shampoo, Conditioner & Body Washbr+ Running and Potable WaterbrbrOUTDOOR SPACESbrThe Dome is situated on Strawberry Hill overlooking the farm, which we're slowly transforming into an orchard and rewilding with native trees and wildflowers.
