About this cottage rental
Welcome to The Dabbling Duck! Located on the beautiful North East River, this waterfront cottage is a little slice of Chesapeake paradise. Guests have access to a private dock for boating, fishing, paddle sports, or relaxing to picturesque surroundings. Hiking, biking, and wildlife enthusiasts love the close proximity to over 5,000 acres of pristine nature. For the traveler in search of antiques, delicious eastern shore fare, or live music, Main Street and Nauti Goose are only a short walk away.
The Dabbling Duck is a private two bedroom cottage, tastefully decorated with a mix of island and coastal design elements as well as mid century modern furnishings. The open living and dining room area is sun-filled and overlooks the back patio and water. The space is AC-cooled and inviting, perfect for relaxing both before and after a day of adventure. Lighting is ample, for reading and playing games, as well as dimmable, for creating a romantic setting.
For the guest who enjoys cooking and entertaining, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed to prepare a nice meal “at home.” There is a gas stove and oven, full-sized refrigerator, complete set of pots and pans, cooking utensils, and serve ware for both indoor and outdoor dining. If additional kitchen items or place settings are needed, please let the host know and she will make every effort to accommodate the request.
The cozy cottage bedrooms have everything necessary for a good night’s sleep. Both bedrooms are outfitted with comfortable sheets, extra pillows and blankets, and AC. The primary bedroom has a king size bed, tv, closet with hangers, and a small dresser. The second bedroom has two twin beds and a nightstand with drawers. If the twin beds need to be moved together, please let the host know prior to arrival, and she will accommodate the request.
Guests have access to the entire cottage, which includes a front porch, a back patio with tables and a grill, and a backyard with a pergola and fire pit area. There are two parking spaces directly in front of the cottage for guests. If you need additional parking, please let the host know. Guests also have access to a private dock. The dock spans the length of the cottage waterfront and the main house waterfront. Guest access will be marked. Guests are permitted to dock one boat up to 30 feet in front of the cottage at no additional cost. Additional boats must be approved by the host to ensure they can be accommodated. There will be a fee for each additional boat.

I loved everything about this place! The waterfront property and proximity to the boat ramp and the most charming little town was more than we could have asked for. Chris and Tara were so accommodating and even add so many thoughtful little touches throughout the house for us. Their communication and hospitality was amazing. The place was decorated beautifully and was so comfortable. It was perfect for our long weekend getaway with our dogs and boat. We will be back!
