This is a beautiful home with amazing water views. We loved the backyard area and hot tub, with relaxing views in mornings and evenings as well. The house was clean and well equipped. There were board games and plenty of indoor spaces to lounge. Historic St. Mary’s city is close by. The neighborhood was quiet with a forested road perfect for walks. We definitely would return again!

Fantastic Property

This property is very clean, well appointed, and well maintained. It is beautiful and right on the water. It truly feels like a home and the owners clearly take pride in it. It is our favorite house for when we come to St, Mary’s. Very convenient to the college as well.

We had the BEST family vacation yet! This house was perfect for our family of 4 plus in-laws and a sibling. Everyone had thier own space. So many places on the property to go and relax. The pier was my favorite. We had the best time catching blue crabs, kayaking and enjoying the hot tub. The kitchen was PERFECT to make breakfast for everyone while watching them fish and play outside. Thank you for such a wonderful place to stay.

One of the Best!

I have been using VRBO for over 20 years in 5 countries and while all of them have been great, this was one of the best. Very clean, all amenities you could think of, very comfy beds, location was beautiful and nice area for runs/walks. St. James Deli was perfect and make sure you go to HSMC while you are there - an amazing historical archaeological site. Should we return, we will definitely rent this place again.

Perfect

Very clean. Wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces. Open floor plan kitchen with dinning room which was great for gathering. Loved the downstairs space to hang out in while still being able to look out at the water and pier. Beds were comfortable. The owners definitely have paid attention to the details to make for a comfortable stay and were very easy to work and communicate with. Can't wait to stay here again.

Exactly what we wanted

This place is absolutely amazing. Came here for a fishing trip with friends and was blown away. Easy access to the water meant every day was spent with maximum time kayaking and fishing. Also had one of the best stocks kitchens of any rental I've used.

Lovely home, spacious, clean. Nicer than photos. Amazing kitchen. The views of the River from the house and shady grounds were wonderful….my family enjoyed fishing on the lighted pier and kayaking in the St Mary's River. Grandsons loved playing in the sand on private beach. Quiet, peaceful setting . Close to interesting places to visit. Enjoyed visiting historic St Mary’s city. The nearby St James deli was a delight Home was very well stocked and appointed. Owners very responsive to questions. I would definitely return!

Absolutely Perfect Waterfront Stay

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful waterfront property. The views were absolutely stunning – peaceful, serene, and perfect for unwinding. The house itself is just as gorgeous as the setting, with beautiful decor throughout and an amazing layout providing lots of space with beautiful views. Everything was spotless and impeccably maintained. The home was fully stocked with everything we needed, from kitchen essentials to very comfortable beds, making our stay seamless and stress-free. It’s clear the owners put great care into every detail.If you're looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway in a truly special place, this is it. We can’t wait to come back!

What a lovely home! Bob and Chuck were very proactive in providing information about their home. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and spacious. We loved the different sitting areas in the house - so much space! I was a bit confused by check in because I didn't realize the owners had sent the entry information several months prior, when I had originally booked our stay. But Bob was helpful in resending it.

Chesapeake Bay

We visited with three generations of our family. This is a well maintained and functional home. Great amenities and well equipped kitchen. Loved the screened in porch . Plenty of places to enjoy reading a book. The upstairs outdoor porch was a great place to watch during a thunderstorm. The dock was a good fishing spot for some of us.
