Property is amazing! Fully furnished for all your cooking needs! Not a lot of properties I’ve stayed at have that many amenities in the kitchen! Rooms were great and the balcony was a great place to sit and have coffee. We spent a lot of time on the beach and saw maybe 10 different people the whole week! I highly recommend this place and the communication with the owner was easy.
Beautiful, modern, well-appointed home on the bay with stunning views, sunny beach, and clean, clear water. Plenty of beach toys and direct access to natural conservation areas that begged us to take long beach walks, hunt for shells, identify birds and other wildlife…or just enjoy sitting around the fire pit. We and our group of friends would go back anytime.
This beautiful beachfront home on Chesapeake Bay was well appointed, very clean, and spacious for our family of 5. The home has modern amenities with plenty of beach toys and the views from the kitchen and bedroom levels and the 2 decks are phenominal with nearly a 180 deg view of the Chesapeake Bay. The home's protected beach is very clean and is within easy access of the house. My grandson loved playing in the sand and the waves. The shoreline across from the New Point Comfort light house was only a short walk from the property. I definitely recommend this home and will stay at this property again next year. A. McCormick
Perfect Getaway – We Can’t Wait to Come Back!Katie and Tim were amazing hosts—thoughtful, responsive, and clearly dedicated to making sure guests feel right at home. You truly don’t need to bring a thing—the kitchen is fully stocked, the house was spotless, and the beds were super comfortable.We spent every evening around the fire pit, and the kids were up early each morning taking the kayaks out and going crabbing. They had so much fun hunting for hermit crabs along the shore. The beach and water were absolutely beautiful, and we spent most of our days floating with drinks in hand, just soaking it all in.The kayaks were a huge hit with the kids, and the peaceful surroundings made it such a relaxing escape. What a gem this place is. We’ll definitely be back!
