Our stay in Annapolis was incredible! The home was adorable and perfect for me and my family staying there. The location was fantastic, we were able to walk to downtown which was a huge perk! The host was super communicative and made the home very accessible. The house was even decorated for the holidays which was such an added bonus and we appreciated. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the city!

Perfect for our visit

House was just as advertised. Obviously well maintained and very welcoming to guests. We were in town for the Annapolis Boat Show and the owners were very accommodating. They worked with us with regards to check in times and leaving our cars parked at the house after check out which we really appreciated. We will stay here again if we're back in town.

The perfect home

We were in town for a girls weekend in Annapolis. Our host Karen couldn’t have been more accommodating. The property was clean and gorgeous, we loved the vintage feel. The patio was perfect for morning coffee and evening cocktails. It was close to everywhere we wanted to go. I highly recommend and we will be back!

Great home and perfect location

We were in town for a week visiting my Mid at the Naval Academy and exploring the DC area with two other family members. Home was immaculate and clean. Kitchen was great if you want to cook instead of going out every night. Property is in an ideal location if you want to be slightly outside of busy DTA. Also, close enough to the stadium if you want to walk to a Navy football game. Host was amazing and always available if needed. Would definitely stay again!! 10/10!! Thank you for the great stay!!

About the host

Hosted by Property Owner

Host profile image
I love Annapolis and the characteristics of old vintage homes! I purchased this adorable home from the owner who lived in the home since the 1950's, I renovated the home but wanted to keep it cozy with a vintage flair. Its furnished with treasures of days gone by, vintage furniture from the past, memories of grand parents and aunts and uncles. Its a labor of love, the backyard is super cute , covered in twinkling lights making a romantic backdrop for small gatherings, having friends and family over or just sitting alone enjoying the quiet.

Why they chose this property

Annapolis is my home, i love it and am blessed to be here, i want to share what i think is the greatest place to live! The home is furnished with upscale furnishings, towels and bed linens. This home has 3 bedrooms with sleeping room for 5 adults. Located in the quaint historic neighborhood of Murray Hill, there are lovely parks, historic charming homes and all within walking distance of the US Navy Stadium Naval Academy, downtown Annapolis, sailing marinas and historic museums.

What makes this property unique

a homey and romantic oasis in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance of historic Annapolis. Home is decorated in 1930-50's vintage style and boasts a private backyard enclosed with fairy lights. A separate private cottage is also located on the property, the owner may stay on property or it could be available for optional separate rental.
