Wonderful Vacation Spot!

My family and I stayed at this lovely spot for a week in mid-August. The house truly has everything you need for a fun AND relaxing stay at the beach! We came all the way from California for a true East Coast vacation experience, and it was one of our favorite trips ever. To be just an hour away from the sites in Washington D.C., but also in a peaceful, beautiful beach area was fantastic. The house was beautifully decorated and well stocked both inside and out (a lot of beach-going amenities to borrow!) I had no idea how much I would love the outdoor shower - perfect for after a jog and of course for after a day at the beach! Cove Point is a sweet little community with friendly people, and Lusby has a nice selection of stores and restaurants to pick up necessities. Thank you, Deborah, for making your home available and so very comfortable. We forgot to jot a note in the guest book, but know that we had a marvelous experience!

Comfortable, relaxing and cozy long weekend

Our long weekend at this lovely home was everything we hoped. Our four children loved the property. We especially enjoyed the long, screened-in side porch with the rocking chairs and cozy sitting area and the close proximity to the private beach. The bedrooms are very comfortable with plenty of extra blankets and pillows. Main floor laundry and well-appointed kitchen made it easy to prepare meals and keep things clean. We had a one-year-old with us who shared the master bedroom which was a bit difficult because the main bedroom is a loft that is partially open to the vaulted ceiling of the greatroom so putting our son down for a nap and even keeping him asleep at night was a little difficult. If we had had the master bedroom to ourselves the fact that it was a loft would have been wonderful. Just a caution to others who intend to use the nursery area of the master bedroom that it may be worthwhile to bring a portable crib to be used in one of the other main floor bedrooms. We wished we had. Deborah, the owner, was so pleasant to deal with and very accommodating and simply kind. We searched for sharks teeth and the kids jumped in the water. A few jellyfish but small ones and it is September so we expected it. Overall, a lovely, low-key family getaway.

Well-equipped, clean and modern house 2 blocks from the beach. Quiet beach cove on Chesapeake Bay with ocean like feel. Good email communication from owner. Screened in shaded porch and deck with umbrella. Master bedroom is a loft without a door. Surprised to find such a pleasant, quiet, laid-back area so close to metro Washington. Had to leave home to get mobile phone service but wireless internet available. In a small residential area with friendly neighbors.

Wildlife at the Beach

This is a lovely cedar lodge with many great features -- well decorated and comfortable. The master loft is huge and a well equipped bathroom. The porch is a great place is relax, read and watch wonderful wildlife. There is a great fire pit that is perfect for roasting marshmellows and listening to the owls off in the marsh. The biggest surprise was waking up in the early morning to find a large bald-headed eagle hanging out in the pine tree outside the master bedroom window. Had the beach practically to ourselves except for the locals walking their playful dogs. It was great to be able to bring our dog along. Thank you.

My husband, son(2 years) and I stayed at Cedar Beach Lodge during a terribley rainy weekend in October. Despite the weather, we had a wonderful time! The house was spotless and decorated so beautifully! The covered wrap around porch was perfect to sit and watch the rain fall with a cup of hot chocolate! I would highly recommend to anyone!

We had an awesome time at the Lodge.Its very close to a private beach. You can have campfire on the beach. The lodge is very clean, very comfortable and has all the amenities that you can think of - grill, cable, wifi, etc.
