A truly serene waterfront retreat. The calm water views, mature trees, private beach access, and comfortable outdoor seating create the perfect setting to relax and enjoy the beauty of the lake. A wonderful place to unwind and take in the scenery.

We had a great 2-night stay at the cottage, it was the perfect size and clean. The view of the water and the porch were perfect for the two of us.

This was a very nice escape for a couple's weekend.The cottage is very well equipped, and we could see all the attention to detail the hosts poured into this space.The waterfront view was breathtaking. The private beach and waterfront deck area are wonderful. A great value for the price!The only complaint is that there are no window treatments in the common areas (kitchen, living room) so at night it feels to be a bit of a "fishbowl."Even so, we would love to come back again someday.

This place was lovely and we appreciated the water, coffee, cream and all the supplies we needed. We were a bit disappointed that the fireplace wasn’t available for use as the weather was cool, cloudy and windy. Would love to stay again on a warmer weekend. Thank you for such a well appointed place!

The cabin was very clean and well-appointed. Beds were comfortable. Sitting by the water was the highlight especially at high tide. We did float in rafts one afternoon but wish we had brought water shoes. The proximity to Havre de Grace was great. We really enjoyed the town, river walk and restaurants - Market Street brewery had good beer and location, Prominade offers good and reasonably priced food, Hopkins Farm Brewery was a amazing!Neighbors were really friendly. One even shared photos of the area when it was a popular beach/destination. Parking was a bit confusing. Follow the host’s directions to follow the gravel path by the black fence and park there. We confirmed with neighbors that we were in the right spot.
