Very nice property
Great location, well maintained. Bedroom Closet space and kitchen/Refrigerator storage a bit limited if you are a big group: but the house and the deck are just wonderful. Very easy drive to downtown Annapolis. In the community there is a very nice park for children and a shared beach front picnic area. GREAT SPOT!
Reuniting with friends in Annapolis meant we needed ambiance and accommodations ! Found it here !
The deck and water view is just perfect for hanging out and barbecues . The 4 bedroom house is great and the three bathrooms pretty much gives everyone their own bathroom . We had lots of kitchen space for our groceries too! Thanks Marc for a memorable visit and all the lil perks like towel sets so meticously placed on each bed !
Great Waterfront Home
The home itself was great and its location was ideal. It is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood in Annapolis. I was able to fit a wedding party of ten and everyone was able to sleep comfortably. The best part about the house is the view from the backyard. We were able to take amazing wedding photos with a beautiful backdrop.
It was a hectic weekend but Marc was able to facilitate any last minute requests (check-in time). Marc was available and generally answered emails within 1-2 days time (if not within a couple of hours). He made a destination wedding less stressful.
The house itself is located about 12-15 minutes from downtown Annapolis and the Naval Academy. There are a number of great restaurants in the area and all are within driving distance.
Keep on looking...
Be warned, this is not a dedicated rental property. Marc managed to make this the most uncomfortable rental we've ever experienced in many years of vacationing through VRBO. The general feeling of being distrusted as strangers in someones home cast a shadow over the entirety of our stay, especially after Marc showed up unannounced on the first full day of the rental and inspected all of the rooms in the house.
Additionally:
* The water pressure was low throughout the house
* The ac didn't really cool the whole house (this was an August stay)
* No cabinet space was provided and food for 13 people overflowed the counter available counter space. It felt chaotic
* Half the fridge was filled with Marc's food, but not nearly enough to put food for 13 people
* Marc complained about us using a lantern that was readily available in one of the bedrooms. Also, this bedroom was actually a utility closet, and there was no AC in this room
* The 20 point checkin list includes a number of things that can and can't be used, however few of these items were marked or put away. Why not simply leave empty cabinet space available for your guests and put away things that can't be used?
* After another thorough and uncomfortable walkthrough Marc "checked us out". He then followed up 2 days later to let us know that he encountered a broken wicket on one of his aged dining room chairs. He then reduced our security deposit by $100 for a chair that in all likelihood was already broken and could have been fixed with a $10 dowel.
All that being said, the location is great, but I could never recommend a stay here to family, friend, or strangers.
Wonderfully comfortable home
We had a wonderful New Year's weekend with friends. Ten of us stayed for a long weekend and we were very comfortable. It was a lot of fun and close to activities. The view of the water was incredible!
