Waterfront Oyster Farmhouse Built 2018 with Pool/Fence and Dock-23 private acres
Relax and absorb the beauty of living on the water at our 23 acre waterfront property on Harris Creek, in between historic St. Michaels and charming Tilghman Island. Our family has lived on this body of water for 10 generations and we would love to share the ambience with your family or group of friends.
The house was designed by DC architect, Richard Leggin and completed in October 2018 with 5,000 sq. ft. of awesome living space. There is a new 140 ft. dock and an outdoor pool with fence and tanning ledge installed October 2022. A 5 acre oyster aquaculture lease is located in the water cove behind the house. Guests of all ages enjoy fishing/crabbing/swimming off of the dock and beach area with a spacious lawn for croquet , cornhole, lawn golf, and fire pit. You may bring your own boat (or rent a boat at Tilghman Marina) to tie up at our dock. We invite you to observe the operations of our family owned oyster business, Harris Creek Oyster Company, and perhaps sample the product! Oysters are an ecological and sustainable product that benefit the Chesapeake Bay.
The farmhouse has a spacious/open floor plan with adjacent breezeway and detached garage/exercise room and full bath. There is a Master bedroom wing on the main floor with an additional master suite located on 2nd floor. The bathrooms have all glass shower doors and tile. The kitchen is bright and spacious with an 8 ft. quartz island, porcelain tile, 2 ovens, farm sink and wine/coffee bar. Family/TV room has granite wet bar. 2nd floor observation deck provides wide views of Harris Creek. There are 2 fireplaces (wood and gas) and entire back of house is encompassed by a 90 ft. brick and bluestone porch. Wake up to the sounds of watermen catching crabs for your evening dining pleasure at home or at any of the fabulous restaurants in St. Michaels or Tilghman Island. Explore the area with bikes and kayaks that are provided. Enjoy the evening with after dinner S’mores at our fire pit.

Thanks David and we hope you and your family will return next year for your yearly pilgrimage to Maryland! We will be having a pool installed in October.
We have been visiting the Easternshore area for about 20 years. This property is one of the best places in the area. It is clean and has all the amenities and supplies we needed, including a lot of seasonings and spices. The owners are responsive to your needs. I'd recommend the property those looking to spend a quiet get away in the Chesapeake Bay area.
This beautiful and spacious home is comfortable, well-appointed, and perfect for a family to enjoy indoor and outdoor time together. The layout of the house also allows people to have privacy or quiet time away from the group. The pool is a highlight as is the gorgeous and well-equipped kitchen. Already booked for next year!
A group of eight, including four children, we had a wonderful time staying at the house, and enjoying the expansive grounds and waterfront. We also really enjoyed the pool. The house has everything you would need, and is large and very comfortable. The location is also great, just minutes from St. Michaels. Thanks also to our excellent hosts for the welcome gift! Much appreciated. Overall, highly recommended!
This house was stocked to the brim with items for the kitchen, bedrooms, outside entertainment..., etc. I have never vacationed at a home with that many kitchen accessories, spices, cooking utensils, oils, flour, sugar, salt and pepper, paper towels... The house is beautiful as well as the property.
Beautiful home in a picturesque private location. Very well equipped kitchen with everything the home chef needs. Close to St. Michaels and all the village has to offer
This was our second stay at the farm. And we enjoyed it just as much.!!! it has such a beautiful peaceful view and all the amenities. Completely recommend.
This is a nice place to relax and sit by the pool. The property is beautiful and lots of room to play games and let the dogs run around. The house is amazing.
This property was a beautiful respite from the mad world. Comfy, with lovely views of the water and surrounding acreage. Great internet, well equipped kitchen and a nice manager of the property too.
Our family had a lovely time at this secluded quiet eastern shore property. The pool was lovely and had plenty of floats as well as kids toys. We all like to cook and this kitchen was the most well stocked kitchen we’ve ever experienced in a VRBO property. Kristen, the property manager, shared a lot of information about the surrounding areas and was very easy to deal with and responded promptly to any questions that we had. The house also had numerous crab traps and a holding trap and a very large steamer to cook crabs. This was one of the highlights of our trip.
We had a wonderful time in this beautiful home! Everything we needed was provided & we had plenty of space! We loved the pool & the child’s pool attached was a huge hit with our one year old granddaughter!
We rented a boat from a local boat rental & parked it at the dock, which was so fun!
Home is beautiful & location is great! Highly recommend!
A cross between a luxury hotel and a cherished family estate
We loved our time here. The house, the grounds, the surroundings are all amazing and absolutely beautiful. Very relaxing yet lots to do. Everything we needed for a fabulous weekend was there and available for us to use. The only downside to staying here is having to leave.
This was our second time staying at the farmhouse, and it was just as special as the first. I can't recommend it enough, for anyone looking for a tranquil escape. It's also fantastic for families, as the pool and the huge yard will keep the kids entertained all day. It's also a huge plus that the property is pet-friendly, as our 13-year old dog appreciated the peaceful setting as much as we did.
We hope to come back again next year!
We agree with so many of the previous renters in their descriptions of the home. It was a step above anywhere else we have stayed. It was the perfect location to spend time as a family. Lots of privacy and many things to do on the property. The restaurant recommendations were spot on, and we still can't get over how well stocked the kitchen was with every spice imaginable as well as supplies. We had a wonderful vacation at a beautiful home!
This was a return visit for me. Such an amazing home and the location is peaceful and quiet. It was the first time for my friends to visit the town of St. Michaels and they loved it. We all agreed we look forward to coming back again. The owners are very friendly and responsive to any questions. Highly recommend this home for your family get together.
This was our second summer at the property and again it was nothing short of fantastic. Our family has unanimously agreed that this is the best vacation home and location that is loaded with activities for all. We have permanently traded in the chaos of the NJ shore for the true enjoyment of Eastern Shore. Thanks again.
The Oyster Farm House is a magnificent property in a beautiful setting on Harris Creek. Great kitchen, comfortable sitting rooms, inviting porches, screened and open. Very well furnished and provisioned with indoor and outdoor games, bikes etc. Conveniently located near biking, hiking, water activities and quaint Eastern Shore towns. Wonderful for a reunion of 4 long time couple friends.
This house.. is fabulous. Plenty of space to spread out.. lots of outdoor areas to discover - nice walks - great views.. lots of privacy. Perfect amenities. I recommend this spot 100 percent. Oh yes! And it's a working oyster farm. Very special.
We are a small family of 4 generations, ranging in age from 18 months to 93 years. This beautiful home and property were the perfect setting for us. While the listing photos and description are very accurate, it was even better in person. Waking up each morning to the view of Harris Creek with the early morning mist was a lovely start to the day. We celebrated a birthday, prepared many wonderful meals in the very well equipped gorgeous kitchen, used the pool and workout room, and sampled the freshest, most delicious oysters from the homeowners' oyster farm. These were available to purchase from a self-service stand just down the road from the property. We explored the lovely nearby town of St. Michaels as well as Tilghman Island. It's a very picturesque area with beautiful water views.As our first-time Vrbo experience, this home and property have set a very high bar! Highly recommend!!
Wonderful property for a family or friends get away! The home is large with an open plan layout that is nicely furnished with a well appointed large kitchen.
We enjoyed the pool, kayaking, crabbing of the dock ,relaxing on the deck , s’mores at the fire pit and off course all of the great MD seafood! Would definitely book again next year! Great time for everyone including our dogs . Kristen, the owner was extremely accommodating and quick to respond.
