The property is amazing, right on the Chesapeake Bay with your own private beach. Fish, crab, swim and never have to leave the house. The house has a very warm, homey feel. Felt right at home.We caught crabs and cooked them up for dinner. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. Coffee on the deck in the morning, with only the sound of the Bay is priceless.We had a fabulous vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shore House.The common spaces were spacious and comfortable, with an abundance of light and wonderful views of the Bay. We biked and walked and explored the area during the day, then gathered each evening for the incredible sunsets from the deck. We were treated to soaring eagles and flocks of cedar waxwing feasting on the Juniper berries on the property. This was the perfect place for our family rendezvous and we all look forward to a return visit!Thank you for sharing this special place…

Perfect get away

If you are looking for a classic Delmarva get away, this is the place to go. Many of the locations down here have become overcrowded, but this is what it felt like 20yrs ago in southern DE.

The property was beautiful and relaxing and the proximity to the water was exactly what we wanted. Our host was pleasant and responsive and even left us a bottle of champagne as we were celebrating our anniversary. (It's the little touches that make for a pleasant time.) We are thankful.

Wonderful getaway!

We had a very special stay. It was even better in person than the listing. Very private, quiet, and relaxing. The water was very shallow which was perfect for our young kids. They found lots of wildlife to explore and learn from. We would definitely consider coming back in future.

Relaxing by a beach.

Excellent place to stay. Plenty of room to lounge around or sit on the verandah watching the water and the birds. Beach is just a few steps down and very clean.We had the beach to ourselves most days. Water is very shallow even at high tide. House is well equipped for cooking. Outside shower was a great asset. Definitely recommend and hope to stay here again.

Quiet down time

Had a lovely long weekend enjoying the views, the sound of the bay gently lapping against the shoreline and the birds and deer. Such a welcoming home with comfortable clean beds and furnishings, and stunning views. We will be back for sure!

Lovely and Magical

This bayfront cottage was the perfect weekend getaway. Shortly after arriving we saw a bald eagle fly into the sunset. The stars at night were absolutely amazing and the cottage was cozy and comfortable. It was a short drive to the little town of Onancock with grocery, restaurants, and shopping. We will definitely return with family in the summer so we can enjoy swimming in the bay and create lasting memories!

Amazing getaway

The home, the beach, and the weather all agreed with us this weekend. My husbands only complaint was that we couldn’t have a fire by the beach.

Beautiful private beach. Home had all the things you need inside. AC worked great. Nicely appointed.The bedrooms are not very private so be friendly with whom you stay! You will need to be wary of deer on your drive back. The town is lovely. If you want to be away from tourists and spend time with family and friends, it's really neat.

Wonderful getaway!

This cozy location was so delightful. It was secluded, quiet, felt like you were in the middle of no where with no one to bother you, even though a few houses are around it. Just very peaceful and relaxing! The owner was super flexible and accommodating! She also gave us info on how to rent kayaks that are delivered to the house! We didn't want to leave! Much like going to grandma's house (on the bay). :)

Great private cottage!

The cottage is a great place to get away. We enjoyed the beach and surrounding area thoroughly. The house lacks privacy as there are no doors on the bedrooms, but just curtains separating them. The lack of washer and dryer was a bit of a letdown because of my kids. It would have been nice to have access to laundry. The kitchen is very well stocked with every utensil day you could need. The sunroom twin bed was great for my son who loved to watch the sunsets. Overall we had a great stay.

Quiet and calming

The area is very quiet and secluded as it is about 15 minutes out of town with only a few neighbors. Nice views, especially sunsets over the bay. We enjoyed the wildlife activity as there were several herons, egrets, horseshoe crabs and even 2 bald eagles. A quaint little family cottage. On the cons side, the recliner sofa was uncomfortable as it fairly broken down and doesn't offer much support. The bedrooms do not have doors, just curtains across the opening so not very private if traveling with kids or other couples. And you have to go through the middle bedroom to access the main bathroom and other 2 bedrooms.
