Ladies weekend stay

Enjoyed our stay here....water pressure on upper BR's weak..and takes 5 min to get hot. Liked A/C in every room. Liked spacious areas and plenty of room to spread out. Perfect location for walking downtown to shops and restaurants. FYI, wasn't an issue for us but during heavy rain there were a few water drips from ceiling on1st floor back porch. Placed a paper towel at the spot. Just wanted you to be aware in case it was something you wanted to have checked out. THX for an enjoyable stay! We will come back again sometime!!

Perfect Family Spot

We had an awesome Thanksgiving together. The property was perfect for our group. There were plenty of rooms and all well appointed. We especially liked the morning sun in the back porch-room. Everything we needed was there in the kitchen for preparing meals, and we loved being able to walk into town. Annapolis is a beautiful town and this property was a really fun, old building right in the heart of town.

This house is quintessential Annapolis and in the heart of everything in the city. The house is old, but is well kept and has a lot of rooms for all your guest gatherings. Susan was great to communicate with and always available when needed!

35th USNA Reunion

What an amazing place! Perfect in every way. We had a large group coming in for reunion, and didn’t want a bunch of hotel rooms… we wanted to hang out and share “sea stories”, and be close to the action. This place was amazing!!!! We are already planning another trip … and this will be our Annapolis Go To!

Lovely historic home!

Our family loved the tri-level home with plenty of space for everyone. Loved the proximity to USNA as we were staying for Plebe Parent Weekend. It was so nice to be around the corner from our Midshipmen! Owner was quick to respond with questions. We hope to stay here again when we visit with our extended family.

Excellent location and house!

Six of us came here for our annual ladies weekend. The location and size of the house was perfect. Parking and unloading is a little bit of a challenge, but once you do that and park in the nearby parking garage, you can walk everywhere!! The kitchen is fully equipped for the night we cooked. I would highly recommend this rental and we will definitely stay here again when in the area.

great location and character

The location, character, space and price of this property were all excellent. We would have liked a few better pots and pans--to fit the Viking range!--and we found a couple of the mattresses on the soft side. The back sun room is a definite plus, and had it not been winter, we would have enjoyed the deck and back yard space as well.

Great location

The property was located so close to the Naval Academy which made it easy to walk to the various activities during commissioning week. The drawback to parking in a garage made the loading and unloading a bit challenging because our midshipmen ( now Marine officers) had to bring his 4 years of collecting stuff to the location. Overall, the space and location were suitable.

Perfect Alternative to Hotels for a large group

Simultaneous boat show + 4 reunions + football weekend seriously limited convenient and affordable hotel options in town. Susan's house was a better choice in any case. Perfect for our 9-adult get together. Fully equipped kitchen was perfect. Thank you, Susan, for a great weekend with friends. We will visit again soon!

This is a lovely old house, beautifully furnished and well equipped with kitchen utensils and dining ware. It is very close to all of the Old Annapolis shopping and activities. And it was very comfortable for all of us. The owner was very helpful and responsive.
