This Annapolis area home provides a stunning 180-degree view of the South River, just off the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis.
Just six miles from downtown Annapolis, the location of the house is incredible. It feels "away from it all" but a quick drive takes you to the United States Naval Academy, shopping, restaurants, movies, the Annapolis Mall and other major conveniences. A 40-minute drive or Metro ride take you to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. The house is located in a quaint, quiet neighborhood - perfect for evening strolls or morning walks.
You'll love the five-minute walk (or boat ride) to Mike's Restaurant and dining on steamed Chesapeake Bay blue crabs and drinking ice cold beer from the deck. The home is so peaceful and serene, you won't believe that it's just a quick jog from Route 50 and Baltimore/Washington International Airport.
The large entertainment deck overlooking the South River off the Chesapeake Bay is perfect for cookouts, relaxing with a good book, savoring your morning coffee or just gazing at the plentiful waterfowl. Stairs go down to your own private pier where you can swim, fish, crab and sunbathe. A boat lift is available, and there's plenty of room for others to dock on the pier. A community boat launch is also available.
The home is beautifully decorated with hardwood floors and open architecture. The fabulous view of the water can be seen from kitchen, dining room/living room, and the master bedroom.
This is a popular year-round vacation retreat so be sure to book early! This vacation rental is perfect for all Annapolis events, USNA events, class reunions, homecoming, Naval Academy football games and Washington Redskin or Baltimore Ravens football games, Annapolis boat shows, summer vacations, winter getaways and weddings. Studying for the bar or writing your thesis or novel? You can't find a better retreat.

I found this great house by searching the web. My husband and I stayed here for one week in July 2005 then came back for another week in July 2006. We really enjoy the quiet little neighborhood and strolling around in the evenings looking at the cute cottages. Of course, the view is fantastic, and you really get a sense that you are "away from it all." Yet, a quick car ride takes you to the heart of Annapolis (which has always been my favorite small city). There's always something happening in the harbor area, where you can "boat watching," dine and shop. I've got to have the hot crab dip at O'Brien's every time I'm in town and visit the Annapolis Marine Art Gallery to see what's new. I love walking through the state capitol and up and down the residential streets (especially picturesque at night). And is there anything more beautiful than the campus of United States Naval Academy. It's an American treasure that everyone must see. If you have a boat, the rental home has a private pier and boat lift, and the whole Chesapeake Bay is at your doorstep. Explore some of the many little branches off the South River, drop an anchor and a crab line. Check out the exquisite real estate along the river and head out to the bay to take a trip up to Annapolis or a lap around the Thomas Point Lighthouse. Back at the home, relax with your morning cup of coffee overlooking the water or read a good book on the pier. Be sure to walk over to Mike's and crack some steamed crabs or enjoy a crabcake sandwich on the deck. I think you will enjoy this home as much as we do. It's a quality vacation getaway.
