Beautiful property with everything needed, and anything else you may want. Enjoyed our stay. Fished right off the dock and enjoyed use of kayak as well. There was ample wood to enjoy the firepit which was enjoyed immensely.

Vacation Paradise!

Our two week stay on Royal Oak was as close to perfect as it gets! The water front location is ideal for swimming and boating. The kitchen is well stocked with items needed to take advantage of the wonderful take-out options in the area, such as hard crabs. Yum! There is a great selection of games, books and movies for indoor entertainment as well. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet a short drive from the lovely towns of St.Michaels and Easton, which offer a variety of shopping and restaurant options. Our hosts, Stephanie and David, live next door and were attentive when we had questions, but very respectful of our privacy. If you get a chance to stay at this property, by all means take it!

Words do not fully convey the serenity and pleasure we experienced at Stephanie and David’s waterfront cottage. It is even nicer than the descriptions or pictures indicate. Stephanie and David were both incredibly welcoming and helpful for house-related and regional questions. Comfy, beautiful, perfect with our dog in tow, and were were able to host our family and grill and great dinner and enjoy on the patio with the fire pit alight and had all the supplies we needed. Even kayaks and fishing equipment! We would never leave if we didn’t have to. Beds and bathrooms are ample and update and the kitchen dining is terrific. Convenient to St. Michael’s and Easton. Unforgettably wonderful stay!

Quiet, peaceful getaway!

Beautiful place inside and out! Perfectly appointed with everything of top quality. We took our two dogs and we found ourselves living on the back porch looking over the water. Very convenient to St.Michael's. PS Dock well suited for a boat!

Perfect!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was absolutely perfect and has everything you could possibly need. The setting is very peaceful and quiet. The sunroom looking out over the bay was the best part of the house. It has such a beautiful view! The owners were very accessible and you could tell that they had put so much thought into every detail of the house.

Perfect Quiet Family Getaway

Quiet house and property on the water with many amenities to fill a week where you can reconnect with your family. Dock, crab traps, fishing equipment, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards provided, making a fun, active week. Also, lots of room to spread out and enjoy quiet time. Conveniently located just 15 minutes from Easton and 10 mins from St Michael’s. A hidden gem that is clean and well kept. Thanks for a great week!

Short Family Reunion

My husband and I, along with our son and daughter and married son and daughter in law, met at this charming, spotless home to celebrate a friend's wedding in Royal Oak. The views are wonderful from the house and porch, the sports equipment and gourmet kitchen kept us busy and happy. The experience exceeded our expectations and we recommend this property very highly!

Fantastic waterfront home

We had a wonderful week at this gorgeous house located right on the water. The house was perfect for our extended family holiday. Spacious, great kitchen and the porch provided wonderful place for dining and relaxing with unbeatable water views. Our family enjoyed the water craft - kayaks and paddle boats - and fishing from the dock. Sunsets were gorgeous as were the night sky. Stephanie and David are great hosts - most welcoming and helpful, providing advice on local sights to see, dining and fishing. We look forward to our next stay.

Girls Weekend Reunion

The house and the property are the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway, from the spacious great room to the hammock to the Adirondack chairs under the magnolia tree that are the perfect spot to watch the sunset. My dog was in heaven! It was so nice to hang out on the pier and be able to take a paddle board out. Everything inside was just as lovely, very clean and comfortable. It was the perfect spot for old friends to reunite and so easy to get to St. Michael’s and the ferry to Oxford. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Wonderful stay by the water in Royal Oak, MD

Stephanie has created a lovely cottage on the water near St. Michael, MD. The cottage is spacious and welcoming. Stephanie has thought of every detail possible to make one's stay a wonderful experience. As a person who loves to cook, I thoroughly enjoyed her well stocked kitchen and outside grill. My five year old standard poodle enjoyed playing on the lawn by the water and rides into nearby St. Michael to explore. I have already booked a return visit.

Perfect location!

We stayed in the cottage over Memorial Day weekend and enjoyed every minute of it. In fact, it exceeded my expectations. We wanted a place on the water, close to St. Michael’s, with enough room for the 4 of us adults to relax and a nice kitchen because we love to cook. This place was perfect! The pics don’t do it justice because they make the place look dark. It’s not. The sunroom was so wonderful, we opened up the doors and enjoyed our coffee there every morning, and had dinner out there and on the patio. Spent lots of time outside and even caught a dozen jumbo crabs right off the deck (with string!)! The owners live next door and were very helpful, found us a pot to steam them in. We loved our stay and had a wonderful time, would definitely stay again.

Beautiful home close to everything!

This was our second time at this lovely home. It has beautiful sunset views from your own private dock. You are close to st Michaels waterfront with stores and restaurants and in the other direction you are 15 min away from supermarkets and big box stores. A bit further downtown Easton historic area with more boutiques and amazing restaurants! The home had high quality linens, comfy couches, and open space for entertaining. Beds were very comfy, the house has an overall updated and comfortable vibe. Home owners texted us back when we had questions etc. I highly recommend!

Another wonderful stay!

This is our third time coming here and we have thoroughly enjoyed it each time. The location is great being right on the bay to catch wonderful sunsets, enjoy kayaking and then be just north 10 min away from St Michael’s to enjoy the cute shops and many great restaurants. The hosts are great and always very responsive. We look forward to coming back again next year!
