It was a very long way from Chattanooga for the travelers but the day had been a strikingly beautiful one. Nature had just begun to unfold into a new season and the mountains evoked a pride which moved our spirits, we were glad to be Americans and living in this country. We arrived in the dark but there was a welcoming warmth emitting from the lights left on in the house. We remembered the elevator and in two trips, we were in that wonderful kitchen and then on up to the third floor bathroom. Our move- in was complete! I peeped into the bedroom, all white and pristine with soft lights bouncing off the numerous windows and the sound of the waves , lapping land just outside the doors. Heaven!

After a wonderful rest on a very good bed, we breakfasted and ventured out to look around. The grounds were simple and uncontrived but obviously there had been careful considerations to renters and their enjoyment of the property, Kayaks, bikes, chairs, even the way the house sits on the property. There is natural beauty every place the eye falls. We appreciated that the authenticity of this spot was in no way compromised by flashy beach clutter. We loved it!

The rest of our family arrived and there was ample room for everyone with little nooks to visit in. Lovely! The skies were heavy and there was rain with wind but it did not hamper our comfort or peace at Kentigern. The Tennessee family members and the Maryland family all had a wonderful and relaxing time. We walked in the Chesapeake mist, on her beaches and found driftwood and glass and smooth little pebbles. We hiked around the friendly neighborhood and visited the local interests which were just wonderful. A plus must be mentioned ... Rob and Bob were so kind and helpful and fun. We like Marylanders very much! We chose this lovely piece of America because Scotland Yard is a favorite place of our daughter and husband who are living in Frederick. These two know a good thing.! We are so happy we made the trip! Thank you Peggy for sharing this place.
