Why Donna chose Stevensville
Kent Island Beach House: Stay & Play by the Chesapeake Bay. Weekend/Weekly Short-term Rental with private beach volleyball court within walking distance to seafood restaurant, marina, and tiki bar. Sleeps 12. Spectacular views inside and out and lots of rooms and spaces for entertaining. Enjoy the large wrap-around deck for Grillin' and Chillin' or sip your Merlot by the fire. We are about 5 miles from the Bay Bridge and life is a beach here at KI Beach House for vacationers and locals alike. Experience a unique affordable hotel alternative for the group. Our home is your home away from home; allow your guests to make everlasting memories with family and friends. KI Beach House is the "pink house" as most people remember it but it is really a coral color ranch style home. Instead of 2 stories high just think of it as 2 stories long. Flyover and see for yourself. Start your morning with a stroll through a waterfront community or hike the South Island Trail that begins at Matapeake State Park and ends at Romancoke Pier, offering an off-road route for bicyclists, walkers and runners from the Chesapeake Bay to Eastern Bay. Come by Car, Boat, Bus, or Plane. Local taxi service is available. Seek waterview respite and relaxation. A very open floor plan offers quite the gathering spot for a group. Our rates are competitive, we respond within 24 hours and typically much quicker to your requests, and we encourage you to visit MD and experience Kent Island to the fullest. Location! BAYcation! STAYcation!
What makes this House unique
The view is something that a Google map just can't do justice. Your own private Beach Volleyball Court awaits you! This is our home away from home too and not just your little cottage on the beach with minimal views. When you are not renting it we are enjoying it and always trying to make it better inside and outside. Friends want to know when we will change our mind about the rental and move in ourselves. They consider it an all inclusive BAYcation overlooking the Chesapeake Bay! Recently a guest commented that the home is simply sneaky big inside with lots of room for family and friends. We love to watch the fishing boats, cruise ships, and the freighters waiting to get into Baltimore. It is fantastic to have a choice to prepare a fresh rockfish in the oven, cook up some steaks on the grill, steam some crabs, or just walk over to Kentmorr for some happy hour goodies or a fantastic dinner not to mention their pizza. Other times it is just great to relax in the Whirlpool tub with a bottle of local wine. Bob can even enjoy Nascar on the big screen while I have some quiet time in the living room or on the deck enjoying the gorgeous Chesapeake Bay sunsets to prepare myself for the next day.

Relaxing
The accommodations were wonderful. The place is so clean and relaxing. All the guests felt very comfortable! We are talking about going out again as a family and staying during the summer months.
Kent Island
In Maryland for a family wedding and we rented what I like to call the compound (two houses side by side) which suited our large family perfectly. There was plenty to do and we had comfortable, well stocked accommodations for us all to chill and have a great time. Thanks Donna and Bob for making our stay a wonderful experience.
Kent Island Beach Hidden Treasure
We were very pleased with the condition and location of the property. Our stay was comfortable, and our family had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy indoor activities. Our stay was during the winter because of a family event. We would like to stay again during the warm season. Great view of the Bay. One minute walk to Kentmorr Restaurant and beach. Hosts Donna and “On-The-Job” Bob were cordial, and remained interested in our comfort. Can’t say enough good about KI Beach House. Thank you, Donna and Bob
Great location, great house for entertaining everyone from kids to adults
We stayed in the offseason and still had a blast. Location was great, house was perfect.
Thanks so much Chris. Great meeting you and your family. We welcome you to consider one of our homes for a future stay and play week here in Maryland.
Great house!
We stayed for a short visit at the house and loved it. With two young kids, there was plenty of grass to run around in and they loved the beach volleyball court. Donna was very helpful in addressing any needs we had. Would definitely rent again!
Great guests!
So glad your little ones had fun at our home Brittany when your friend got married at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. Hope to host your family again some day.
Thank you again
