About this house rental
Welcome to Crab Cakes and Football. Enjoy Historic Downtown Annapolis with convenient walking distance to both City Dock and the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Private parking for 2 cars!
There are seven restaurants within one block including:
- Thai
- Italian
- Irish
- Unique Annapolis Fare
This is the perfect spot to enjoy all that Annapolis has to offer. People who know the area know that having 2 parking spots is almost unheard of. We are located in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Annapolis. The neighborhood has a very peaceful, quiet feel. The property had once been a long term rental but we decided we'd rather share it with people coming here to vacation. We live 5-10 minutes from the property so you can enjoy your privacy but we are available if you need us.

Perfect weekend getaway! Liz is a fantastic hostess with a beautiful house offering all necessary amenities, great location close to attractions and restaurants, and thoughtful touches like prosecco and chocolates.

Such a nice part of town. Walking distance from everywhere. Really amazing house. Will definitely stay again!

Everything about this weekend was perfect! Liz is a hands-on hostess, and was a great resource for all things Annapolis. The location is great for walking to the naval academy, to town, and to several very good restaurants. Googled Leos for dinner, one of her recommendations, and it was 450 feet away. The same for The Lighthouse for breakfast. Both were excellent. The house is beautiful, and had everything we needed, including a welcome bottle of prosecco. 5 stars all around.

We had the best stay! My husband I took a short weekend trip with our dog. Liz was so accommodating and even left us wine and chocolates to celebrate. She was so nice and even let us stay as long as we wanted on Sunday!

We stayed here for our son’s Iday and it could not have been more perfect. It was a comfortable walk to Gate 1 and DTA.
Liz was very accommodating with check in and check out times and all of the special touches made our stay that more comfortable.
We will definitely stay here again!

Best rental we've stayed in during our daughter's 4 years at the academy. Liz is exceptional communicating! Reviews are 100% accurate. My favorites:
-Location: easy walk along West St to all sorts of cool places
-Backyard & parking: great for morning coffee and no stress finding a spot to park on the street.
-Real cable TV. No streaming necessary. Really appreciated that during football season!
Book it, you will be thrilled!!

Second Time Staying here - a Favorite
This is the second time we've stayed at Liz's place. It's one of my favorite rentals in Annapolis - location is great - close to everything, but quiet in the evenings, easy access to restaurants on West St., walking distance to Main St and the USNA. The home is very clean and is the most well stocked rental we've ever stayed in - kitchen has everything you could need and plenty of extra towels, pillows, blankets, and toiletries upstairs. We will definitely be back for a third visit in the near future.

Perfectly charming
This property was perfect for our stay in Annapolis for an event at USNA. Listing pics don’t do it justice- if you like what you see, you’ll love it in person. Everything was clean, well-stocked kitchen tools, clean and crisp bedrooms, comfy sofa in living room. Outdoor space is adorable (although it was too chilly for us to enjoy.) Liz was super accommodating for our needs, and we loved the touch of Prosecco and cold bottles of water waiting for us upon check-in. My only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer.

Such a find!
Liz thought of everything to make our stay easy and fun. We were welcomed with a bottle of Prosecco, there was plenty of bottled water in the fridge, coffee, tea and a very well appointed kitchen. She made sure we had dish and laundry detergent, plenty of extra towels - everything we needed after a long road trip. The house was perfect for us, our dogs and our grandkids. And, the location and off street parking make this property a rare find. We look forward to staying here again.

Thoughtful, personal touches
Location was perfect, we walked everywhere. Property was very clean had everything and more you could possibly need for a weekend away. All of the personal touches and extras were very much appreciated. Thank you so much!
I don’t think we’d will ever stay in a hotel in Annapolis again if this property is available.

Perfect!
The house was perfect! Adorable, super clean, and well stocked with all the essentials. We used it for my bridal party to get ready and it couldn't have worked out better. Liz was a great host - very accommodating and quick to reply. Would definitely recommend this stay to anyone visiting Annapolis!!

Navy vs Air Force Game
Liz is an amazing host. She's extremely accommodating. We were able to arrive early and depart later which helped us spend that extra time with our mid. Thank you and we'll be staying with you more often.

Plebe Parent Weekend
We rented the property to visit our two sons who attend the United States Naval Academy. The house could not have been more perfect. When we arrived the house was spotless and the owner even left us a welcome gift. There is not anything that the owner did not think of. She even had sippy cups in the cabinets if you have little children. Communication with the owner throughout the entire process was fantastic. The location is terrific. 5-10 minute walk to all restaurants and the Academy. We will definitely be renting this property again when we have our next visit. ( unless word gets out how perfect it is and it gets booked😂) Thank you very much, Liz. We had an incredible time with our family in your house. 🇺🇸⚓️ We highly recommend this owner.

Perfect!
Our favorite location in Annapolis! Home was perfect! Fresh flowers, wine, a gift basket and the most well stocked kitchen I have ever found in a rental. Commissioning week access to events couldn’t be better and parking for three small cars was golden for graduation day at the stadium because it allowed us to offer a walkable distance to those who stayed further out. Liz is wonderful to work with, would give 10 stars if I could!

Best Location
The owners are fabulous and there for you! The location is 10, walk to everything! The house is the BEST stocked home we have ever stayed in. We comfortably had 4 adults and a large dog. The backyard is really nice and both front and rear are fenced in. Zero reservations in staying again!

Forever a favorite!
This is the 3rd or 4th time that we've stayed at this property and it continues to be a favorite. Liz is so easy to work with and very communicative. The house is always clean, very well stocked and she leaves some really great personal touches for her guests. The property is close to dining but also has a full kitchen that is stocked for cooking while there. The backyard space is great for hanging out in, and the neighborhood is quiet. This is forever a favorite of ours!

Wonderful Home!
This house is amazing. Liz was wonderful to work with and very helpful. When out first CW house sold, Liz was right there to help me and reassure me that we were good to go. We wanted for nothing in the home. Liz has everything you could possibly want or need! I highly recommend this home!!! Thank you, Liz! You helped make our week stress free!

Great weekend in Annapolis staying at Crabcakes and Football
Can’t say enough on how great our stay in Annapolis was. First time using Home Away and could not be happier. After Staying in hotels when we came down to Annapolis we decided to rent this property. Not only was it more space but everything in the home was perfect and provided. Hoping to make this an annual location for our trip.

Wonderful Home Away from Home!
We stayed at Crab Cakes and Football for Plebes Parent Weekend at the USNA. From booking to checking out, Liz was so responsive to our every request and question. We found out before arriving that our daughter was sick and would want to stay in and rest while we visited. So I asked Liz about area restaurants that delivered or did take out and she sent me an extensive list of places to go. She also offered to let us check in a little early and leave a little late, so that our daughter would have plenty of time to recuperate before reporting back in. The house is spotless and filled with everything you need - plenty of towels, a blow dryer, extra pillows and blankets as well as a fully stocked kitchen and bathroom. We easily fit our two cars, The area is very quiet and peaceful. But you can be at a variety of restaurants and bars on West Street within a few minutes walk and the walk to Main Street in DTA is about 10 minutes. It's also only a 15-20 minute walk to the USNA, so very convenient to not have to drive and park on the Yard. We can't say enough wonderful things about our stay here. We look forward to returning many times when we visit our daughter over the next few years! Liz, thank you for sharing your home and being such a gracious and responsive hostess!

Great time and highly recommend
Where do I start? Great place, great location in a great town, made for a wonderful vacation. The home was perfect and had everything you need. It was well equipped with great attention to detail. Very well organized and very clean. Location was equally as great. Walked everywhere. Easy jaunt into town and you can even walk to the stadium. Shops, restaurants, the academy, the water...a great time. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back. Owner was also great and extremely accommodating and highly responsive with timely answers and suggestions to all requests. Thank you!

Not a single thing missing!!!
This home is absolutely perfect. Charming, decorated with excellent taste, and Liz managed to think of every single item you might possibly need or have forgotten, including contact lens cases! The kitchen is immaculate - every single dish, glass, utensil we used - and we are very picky in that department! The location is perfect, close to many restaurants and bars, and we walked back and forth to the Naval Academy several times over the course of our visit. Any questions were immediately responded to. The welcome goodies for adults and kids were most appreciated and the left behind bathrobe promptly sent without even knowing it was missing. We cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to our return visits over the coming years.

No football, but yes crabcakes, antiques, museums and more!!!
Our family of three plus dog enjoyed a spring long weekend at Crabcakes and Football property and it was perfect. The house is super cute and in good condition, and had everything we needed. Owner Liz provided thoughtful little touches that made us feel like we were old friends. The location is divine too; we basically parked our car behind the house when we arrived and did not touch it again until it was time to leave. We walked everywhere, down West Street, full of shops and great food (we particularly enjoyed The Metropolitan and Luna Blu), and onto downtown and the harbor. Our five-year-old enjoyed spending one rainy morning at the Annapolis Maritime Museum, and we all liked lunch at the Boatyard afterwards. We are already plotting our return to Annapolis and will be contacting Liz about another rental.

Wonderful Home, Wonderful Host
This is the first time we booked a home through HomeAway so we were a little anxious upon arrival. My adult kids, my husband, our two dogs and I were pleasantly surprised ! Liz's home was warm and inviting and very, very clean. Our dogs felt right at home and really enjoyed the special cookies that Liz left for them (us humans loved the champagne!). Liz answered our questions immediately and promised to make herself available if we needed her at all during the stay.
We will definitely stay with Liz when we come back to visit all of our Annapolis friends!

Charming, squeaky clean, super convenient
We stayed here with another couple for a USNA reunion weekend. This was perfect. The row house has the charm of a historic home and the comfort of up-to-date amenities. It's within walking distance of the stadium and several fun restaurants on West Ave. We appreciated all Liz's thoughtful welcoming touches. Would definitely do this again.

Unique well appointed historic home
Owners have taken great care to compliment the furnishings with brand name first class appliances. Air Conditioning System was excellent. Private fenced-in back yard with parking for 3 cars. Cozy front white picket fence gave a homely apparence. Home was very clean. Owners gave the impression of wanting to please you and make your stay enjoyable. Great location!

Enjoyed the crab cakes; looking forward to football!
This place was perfect for our family of four to take a short weekend away from DC. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the location was wonderfully accessible - walking distance - to downtown restaurants, shopping and art galleries. Owner Liz pays attention to details and had everything ready when we arrived. Now that we've been for a fun summer weekend and know how close the place is to the Navy football stadium, we hope to come back this fall. Can't recommend the historic district CC&F highly enough!
