It was nice to get outside DTA and see another part of Annapolis. 15 minutes from DTA it was quiet and beautiful small cottage perfect for our family. The home was clean and designed well. We would stay again. Thank you!!!

We have stayed in many VRBO properties around the country and "The Anchors" is by far the most pleasant experience we have ever had. The cottage is immaculately clean, thoughtfully fitted out, and in a safe, quiet neighborhood. The beds are comfortable and there is plenty of hot water-these are the most important things we look for in a rental property. The rainfall shower is a pleasant touch! The owners, Carolyn and Winston, are tremendously gracious and accommodating. They made us feel very much at home in this jewel of a cottage! The neighborhood is very quiet and relaxed- you can actually feel your blood pressure go down as you arrive in this laid back community! Cannot wait to return!

Clean, well stocked, nice furniture, quiet neighborhood, lots of amenities, good location. I would highly recommend this property. We stayed very comfortably for a week. Went in and out of DC without issue. Check in and out was easy. I'd stay here again.

A great location for our weekend in Annapolis with our 6 year-old grandson. Having the beach and playground just down the street was perfect! Clean house. Great local host!

This beautiful cozy little cottage is nestled in a delightful quiet private beach community. The Anchors (owners) are super friendly, attentive and quick to respond to you if you have any questions. Our family of 4 from Katy, Texas, stayed there for 1 week to celebrate our son’s commissioning week and graduation from the US Naval Academy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at their cottage. Grocery stores, restaurants, pharmacies, etc. are just minutes away. I highly recommend this beautiful cottage for any couple or small family that wishes to get away, unwind and enjoy the tranquility of a private beach community in beautiful Annapolis, Maryland.

We have stayed at The Anchors several times when visiting Annapolis and hope you will as well. The home is beautifully and comfortably furnished with all you need. The location is ideal, close to downtown in a beautiful water community ideal for long walks. The hosts are welcoming and really interested in your comfort. We will be back for sure!

Immaculate little place, loved the neighborhood, quiet diverse with homeowners, family rentals, young people old people ethnicity diverse. The beach for the little community on Chesapeake Bay is small but nice , gated, is open until midnight had plenty of room for family parties, has a small play ground and volleyball owners were in touch but not intrusive, can’t find a single thing to complain about.

Winston and Carolyn are extremely nice and thoughtful hosts. The space feels larger than it is with two comfortable bedrooms a nice living area and kitchen. They had the bedrooms, kitchen, and bathrooms extremely well stocked and were very easy to communicate with. We loved Annapolis but it was wonderful to be away from Downtown in a very quiet and extremely friendly neighborhood. We will be back no doubt. Thank you so much Winston and Carolyn!

I rented this house almost 2 years ago for my mid’s commission week. The Winston couple are the best host of Annapolis I have met in the past 4 years. The house is spotless and has everything we need. We held a postgraduation party and Winston couple helped us to turn it to successful party. What a pleasant stay!! I believe that Winston couple become our friends and we definitely will come back in the future.

Oyster Harbor is a wonderful home to stay when in Annapolis. The cottage has everything you need to feel comfortable, make a meal, walk the lovely neighborhood and have easy access to DTA. We are lucky to have found this gem and are sure to return.

The Host was accommodating and easy to deal with on every way. The property easily accommodated 2 couples and literally is just a few steps from the local beach in a quaint and quiet neighborhood. Also an easy 5-10 minute drive to all local events and experiences around downtown Annapolis and the Naval Academy.

From the moment you communicate with Winston and Carolyn, you know you are in good hands. The house was spotless, the towels plentiful and plush, the bed linens comfortable and the space was warmly and beautifully decorated with an eye for comfort and practicality. The kitchen had everything for heating or preparing a meal. The setting of the adorable house was great as well within a friendly neighborhood and with slight water views and a beach and dock down the street. We had family staying there but it would be comfortable for two couples or a couple with children. Well priced, well placed, and well taken care of! The hosts were very quick to respond to questions and even left us a basket of snacks! They are kind and warm hearted people and it shows in their rental. I would definitely rent here again!

We just love The Anchors, so much that my partner and I want to keep it to ourselves;) This was our third visit and we brought our friends along for a night who loved it, too. The neighborhood is perfectly serene but getting into the city is super easy. It's really nice to have both options. The community is very friendly, too. Everyone waves on walks and bike rides. Come and enjoy your stay here!

The house was very clean and modern. The hosts were great. The beach is really just down the block. The beach is small, quiet, and clean. The neighborhood was very friendly and walkable. The one disadvantage of this location was that it is a bit of a ride from downtown Annapolis (about 15 minutes).

This is our third time staying here for a week in the summer, and we always love it. The house is welcoming and clean. Winston and Carolyn are right next door and available if you ever need them, but we never have! The house is completely stocked with anything you’ll need. We love how close it is to the neighborhood beach. The neighborhood has plenty of quiet streets to walk and enjoy the bay views. The house is also only a quick drive to downtown, shopping centers, and countless restaurants. This is the perfect spot to do it all. We will definitely be back again next year!

We had a great stay at the Anchors! The cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. The kitchen was better appointed than previous VRBOs at which we’ve stayed. Winston and Carolyn were welcoming and available. We especially enjoyed the beach, which is a short walk down the road, and playing the available games in the evening. We definitely recommend this place!

Lovely cottage in the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis

The cottage is charming, stayed there with my 2 sons, age 11 and 17. Charming neighborhood with a private beach access, playground for kids. Winston and Carolyn are lovely, helpful, wish I’d had more time to get to know them! Short 10 min drive to Annapolis. The sunrise there over the water is beautiful. Highly recommend, their place had everything you might need. I could have stayed forever!
