Our family group ranged in age from 5-84 and all of us had a fantastic time! Beautiful view of the water from the yard and the house. Fun to crab and fish off the pier and take out kayaks and canoe. Perfect yard to play yard games. Plenty of room to spread out in the house and when we had a little bit of rain it was wonderful to hang out on the screened in porch. Shawn was a terrific host, answered any questions and was great at giving suggestions. Would love to come back here again!

I decided to rent out this VRBO to stay during my wedding weekend to host the rehearsal dinner and get ready with my bridesmaids. This house is amazing! Each room has such character and it has a beautiful master suite where I took most of my bridal shots. The rehearsal dinner was amazing and the host, Shawn, was always willing to help. The view from the dock and the backyard is so beautiful and the location is very conveniently close to Herrington on the Bay. Would definitely stay here again!

We are a remote company and needed a place for a corporate planning retreat. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms to make everyone happy. The views of the water were fantastic and we enjoyed our stay very much. The WiFi is fast. Lots of local dining nearby but we did eat in at least once a day and the kitchen is well furnished. No complaints and we will be booking this location again.

I have stayed at Chesapeake Paradise at least eight times, but have always stayed at Shawn's cottage next-door. While we have loved the cottage, we were even more bowled over and loved this first stay at Shawn's newly-remodeled Chesapeake Paradise House! Contrary to what was written in a recent negative review, Shawn has always taken care of any and all needs promptly and quietly, while always giving us our space and staying out of our way. This time, she even went out of her way to make things work for us by waiving her 3-night minimum to let us come for a short last-minute stay. The first time I walked into Chesapeake Paradise House, I was struck by how much more beautiful it was than how it looked on the website.. Plenty of separate spaces, each with its own character: tasteful, beautiful decor and upscale finishes. I loved all the places to sit and every one allowed all of us to see out to the beautiful shimmering water. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and baking, even spices and condiments, and we didn't have any problems with blown fuses or the other things mentioned in that review; that was not our experience at all. (Having read Shawn’s response, I cannot imagine how anyone would think it was ok to plan a 60 person event that would bring 0ver 20 cars to a venue without checking with the host well in advance!) I could say more, but for now, I’ll just add, "We'll be back!" This peaceful spot is unique even to the Chesapeake Bay

The house is beautiful with an amazing waterfront and peer. I loved my time kayaking and the kids (adults now) loved the yard and grill. We had privacy and were greeted by the owner who was helpful and available and still gave us our privacy. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to cook. The house is roomy and clean. The screened in porch is my favorite place there. We will definitely go to this location again. Thank you.

My family, which included my parents, my husband's mother and sister, and our two daughters had a wonderful time during our stay at this house. The owner was very nice and responsive to questions. We had a seafood boil outside one evening, and the owner made sure we had everything we needed. The layout of the house was perfect for our group of eight. We enjoyed relaxing on the screened-in porch with a fire in the evenings. The house was so homey and comfortable. We enjoyed taking out the kayaks, hanging out on the dock, and checking the crab traps. A nice, very relaxing trip. We also enjoyed Second Wind Consignments located in Deale. We spent most of our time at this house during our trip, and everyone in our group absolutely loved it. Beautiful views.

Negative 5 stars. Vrbo advertises the privacy of stays and what I experienced is the exact opposite. I felt watched the entire time. Shawn is noisy, frequently on the property and rude. She made the entire weekend unnecessarily stressful. Don’t expect any privacy or to have the propery to yourself. She lets the guests stay at the property next door and the person living in the trailer in the front yard use the property and dock area. Which is against Vrbo policy! Her dog runs freely on the propery and will come into the house if you leave a door open. She was taking pictures of her dog that had our children in them which was completely inappropriate. We had to ask her to delete the photos which she was reluctant to do. It is a beautiful property. The house was clean but cluttered with the hosts Personal belongings. We had to toss out food because they got infested with ants. There is uneven floors throughout the house which creates numerous trip hazards. You cannot have more than two things running in the kitchen at one time or the breaker will trip (ie. brewing coffee and running the microwave). The AC doesn’t work well. I informed her I was having an event in advance. But she waiting until the day before to informed me of another contact, additional fees to extort money from me. She expects to be informed of any additional people who come to the house and will charge for them! She will count the people and cars you have at the property.

Very nice home in a very nice location!
