Irie ~ to be at total peace with your current state of being.....
AKA NO WORRIES!!!!

This charming, 2 story COTTAGE was Inspired by sun-drenched island vacations and tropical shores.... ahhhh ..... The feeling of Irie!!!

This 2 bedroom and 2 full bath maybe compact, (twin size Crate and Barrel sleeper chair and Half for additional guest), BUT She SURE packs a powerful punch!! TOTALLY open concept living area, caterers stocked kitchen (I’m a former catering company owner for 20 years, just trying to simplify), fully fenced in professionally landscaped yard with SO many colorful flowers, herbs and vegetables for the picking, functional and cute sunroom for additional living space amongst nature, endless entertaining, upstairs deck off of primary bedroom ... OFF STREET PARKING and Private FULL size .... YES... PRIVATE... pool in the heart of Eastport!

Enjoy your sweet or savory fare in the sunroom. If you must check in with work, we have an Ethan Allen secretary's desk off to itself.

Following breakfast you may choose to take a 10 minute stroll across Spa Creek Bridge to downtown Annapolis, City Dock, and the Navel Academy!! While in route, take time to admire the diverse number of power and sail boats in the numerous area marinas. ALL ... with-in a 10 minute stroll!!

You say you do not feel like walking, the best kept secret, Annapolis Water Taxi picks up and drops off only a block away!!!! $4-$9!!! It will drop you off right at City Dock!!

Once you return from your adventure to this amazing 2 story cottage, relax by the glistening saltwater pool in one of the sun loungers. Or take a dip to refresh and reset the mind. You do not feel like swimming?? No PROBLEM!! Enjoy an adult beverage in the new (Apr. 2023) sunroom while listening to some island music, reading a book, marveling at the flower garden, watching your family or friend enjoy the pool...
After all, your life is IRIE when you stay with us!!

Very nice, cozy property with a beautiful backyard. The kitchen was well stocked, and the host provided a welcome cheese and wine board. One item to improve the comfort of this home would be to get better couches for the living room and sunroom. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Perfect pool for family/kids

Early summer stay and the house, especially the pool, was very clean and tidy. Relaxing and secluded outdoor area with a larger than expected pool for the kids to enjoy. About 0.5 miles to the center of town with excellent restaurants less than 0.25 miles away in Eastport.

Beautiful Cottage in Eastport

421Irie is a great property, well managed and maintained by Liz. It was perfect for a weekend of sailing, golf, family and friends. We hosted a small cookout for eight one night, and the cottage was just right for the group. The kitchen is well stocked, the big grill outside was just fine, and the multiple seating locations were ideal for the various attendees. We would love to stay at the cottage again next time we are in Annapolis

Location and Pool

Our family (adults and two kids 5 and 9 yr old) was really very happy in this home. The pool was a huge hit with the kids, the location in Annapolis close to all attractions was a hit with the parents. The house was really well equipped with everything needed. Very clean, well organized, and would definitely stay again in the future. Liz was a wonderful host, made herself available to our questions and was very flexible with our departure time.

Got Ready for my Eastport Wedding Here!

Liz, the host, was one of the nicest and most accommodating hosts I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She allowed me and a few of my bridesmaids to get ready in her home for my wedding a few blocks away. It was the perfect location. Fully equipped with whatever we needed, meticulously well-decorated and maintained, and surprisingly spacious for our needs. The beds were very comfortable for some much needed rest. Liz’s garden is incredible. I definitely recommend a spring visit for that reason alone. We loved our stay here so much!

Beautiful home in a wonderful neighborhood

Husband and I stayed here with our adult sons to visit local family for the Thanksgiving holiday. Was the perfect location to visit family in the Annapolis, Howard Co and DC area and come home to relax in the evening. The property is spotless and nicely appointed (beautifully decorated w/lots of local flavor). It was also extremely well stocked with kitchen/bathroom essentials and then some. Liz was easy to contact via text and super responsive. It was truly like being at home. Highly recommend this property. I'm sure it's very lovely in the summer too with the backyard garden in bloom and the pool. Unfortuantely, we couldn't get the clothes washer to work but not really a big deal - just did all the laundry when we got hom

Amazing location & house!

We took a quick weekend getaway to Annapolis. It was our first time there and we loved it. The location of the house is perfect. We were so close to the bay with tons of restaurants nearby. It was a quiet neighborhood though so we didn’t feel like we were in a party scene. The house was so clean. The pool was huge (bigger than expected), and the host went above and beyond. Liz was an excellent communicator. She had more than enough essentials at the house that made our stay so relaxing. I felt very safe and comfortable reaching out to her if we had any trouble. She was a top tier host for sure. We highly recommend and highly enjoyed our stay!

Lovey home in an amazing location!

I wanted to do one last quick getaway before the kids (4 and 6 yrs old) started school and this house was perfect. The location is awesome - conveniently located to downtown Annapolis (we used the Water Taxi which is a couple blocks from the house), the Naval Academy, several great restaurants, a playground, and Pirate Adventures (a huge hit for the kids). The pool at the house was a huge plus too. Liz was great - wonderful communication and she left us a nice bottle of wine and cheese plate upon arrival. We'd love to return!

This is an absolutely fantastic place to stay!! The host Liz was so easy to work with and quick to respond to any inquiries we had. We booked for the Herndon climb (#plebenomore) and cannot say enough about how perfect this house was for us. It was an easy walk to DTA and gate #1. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything needed to make several home cooked meals for our son and his friends. The sun room is beautiful and the perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee or breakfast! The pool was also nice but, unfortunately the weather did not cooperate so we didn’t get to use it as much as we had planned. We will definitely stay here again!!

This is a truely amazing place to stay in the heart of the Eastport and on the doorstep of Annapolis. The house was stylishly decocrated, immaculately clean and well equipped. The garden was delightful and the pool heavenly. A pool in the middle of town - what a treat! Location is execellnt too - several good restaurants and bars just a couple of blocks away and an easy walk to downtown Annapolis. Liz was a great hostess and was very helpful and responsive with any queries. I can't praise this little cottage enough and we are already looking to rebook it! Thank you.

Annapolis get-away

This cottage is comfortable, spacious and clean. We enjoyed the pool after walking all over Annapolis on hot summer days. The yard and porch were our peaceful retreat where we could sip coffee or enjoy the birdwatching. (Hummingbirds were our favorites!) The neighborhood is quite peaceful and everything is walking distance from the cottage (or a very short walk to the water taxi). Liz is a gracious hostess who adds a warm touch to the cottage with her special touches! We truly enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Perfect Location with every amenity.

Our stay was very enjoyable as the check-in process was extremely easy. Liz was very proactive and responsive to all communication, and made sure we had everything we needed. The bedrooms were spacious and extremely comfortable. Downstairs living space had everything we needed, and the back porch is an added bonus. We wish it could have been earlier in the year to enjoy the pool, but that is a rare find in Annapolis! The only issue with the neighborhood was that we did have someone attempt to open our car doors in the night, setting off the alarm, but the proximity to DTA was perfect.

Gorgeous, clean, relaxing

We LOVED this house. We spent just about all of our time lounging in the beautiful back yard and swimming. We ate all of our meals on the perfect screened-in porch. The house is exactly as pictured in the listing, and was spotless. Check in was easy, and communication with Liz was above and beyond. Lots of little touches in the house to make it comfortable and relaxing. Great location in really cute neighborhood, walkable to great bakery and brewery, as well as a (slightly longer, but still really easy) walk downtown. Zero complaints and we already can't wait to book again!

Nice visit

Overall our visit was very nice. We were disappointed with the pool however, and the pool was the only reason we booked this home. It had a lot of debris from the surrounding landscape. Liz was very kind and even came over to skim it one morning without even being asked. Unfortunately no amount of skimming we did could rid it of the debris. Overall the setting was lovely. Liz was very responsive and kind.
