This was the perfect spot for our multi-generational family getaway. There were things to do for all of our family members (23 -83 years old).The house, built in 1900, is comfortable, spacious and built for recreation. Very “comfy, homey vibe”. It felt like we were at my great-aunts house.We really appreciated having so many beds to choose from. Although we didn’t need all of them, some were more comfortable than others.I specifically chose this listing because of the private pier and kayaks. We didn’t need to use the sailboat because we brought our own boat, but I thought it was a nice option. Since it’s jellyfish season, we fished, crabbed, kayaked and boated. At night, we enjoyed the ping pong table, fire pit and board games. Nice variety of wildlife nearby. Deer, terrapins, snapping turtles , fish and crabs were all around.When we needed a pot to cook the crabs in, the property manager was kind enough to deliver it within 10 minutes.This was definitely a great choice for our family.

We stayed for a motorcross race (son was racing). We didnt do much at the house. Its nestled back in a quiet point on the water. Easy commute to and from to the grocery/simple shopping stores. Starbucks right down the street for you coffee lovers. The interior decor is simple and antique.

We booked the property because of the waterfront location and amenities offered. The home is located in a central spot where there are several large grocery stores and other shops within 10 minutes drive. We also visited the Naval Air Museum which was great. At the time of booking, we knew it’s an old home but since it has good reviews, we decided to give it a try. When we first walked in, you could feel the age of the house. It is dark and has a musty smell. Upstairs only has window units but the curtains are not properly fitted so you have to move the curtains out of the way so it doesn’t block the vents. Also, one of the larger bedrooms is connected to the game room. You have to pass the game room where the daybed is to get to the bedroom. I didn’t like that due to the lack of privacy. The furnitures, mattresses, beddings and kitchen items all need replacing due to poor conditions. Carpet upstairs needs to be replaced as they have been worn thin. Kitchen cabinets need to be gutted because they are just disgusting (excuse my word choice, but I don’t know which other word that would best describe the situation.). Water pressure isn’t consistent in the bathrooms. The basement is dark and dingy. The stairs leaves little head space so it’s a hazard. We all hit our heads even though we knew to dock. Outdoor space could also use some care. The stairs to the dock is steep and the bushes could use some trimming. Outdoor grill is rusted be replaced or repaired.

I did not realize that both bathrooms are on the first floor of the house, most of the beds are on the second floor. 2nd floor seems to be converted attic space and has window AC units that are very loud (but worked well to keep the space cool when it was 90+ degrees out) and my kids found it to be very creepy up there (so did I, but I didn't tell them until afterwards). Whole house smelled musty and moldy. Linens were very old and the beds were not particularly comfortable. Not much furniture in the family room area (2 loveseats). Dining room and kitchen were huge. Bathrooms were fine, although the water was a trickle in the one bathroom sink. I think this would be fine for a fishing trip as advertised, but if you have little kids, the set up isn't good. It has so much potential, if some furniture was upgraded, walls painted, little decorating. The outdoor space was nice, kayaks, dock, view, but could be even better if the trees at the end of the property were cut so you could see the bay from the house and a patio installed and some nice landscaping. We never even saw the ping pong, pool table. We were planning to use the bikes, but the house wasn't really in a neighborhood and we would have been biking on a fairy busy street with the kids. Overall, this place has a lot of potential, but fell short.

We love this place. The property is amazing. The house was great. All the kids had so much fun swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and floating. Check in was simple. The owners and PM were super helpful. My only advice is to bring shade and lawn chairs.

The house was nice and the property is spacious. Great views from the dining room table. A little steep heading down to the dock but not terrible. Very private setting, but also only 5 mins away from pretty much anything you could need. Some nice restaurants just across the bridge in Solomons Island. Would love to return in warmer weather to take advantage of the kayaks and water.
