Nature at its finest: Find peace and tranquility in this waterfront home with breathtaking water views from all freshly decorated rooms. Enjoy the water traffic on the C&D Canal along with the multitude of wildlife living in the area. Launch your kayak, canoe or row boat from the boat ramp, or store your jet ski or boat on the boat lifts.

Tidal beach is private for walks and leads to a short public wooded hiking trail. Privacy without distractions is perfect for use as a corporate retreat and wonderful for artists to express their creativity.

The sectional couch in the living area has the ability to sleep two persons and a corner restaurant-style bar area welcomes the would-be bartender to host house guests. Perfect for a retreat or a girls/guys weekend away and wedding party accommodations. Ambience is provided by adjustable recessed lighting throughout. Bicycle or walk the nearby 17-mile canal front trail. Bring your kayaks, bicycles and leave your worries behind.

Great place right on the water

Really loved this place. Will come back for sure. Our boat lives most of the time on a trailer so having it ready to go on the lift all week was a great time saver and we got a ton of use out of it. Loved checking out the Canal, all the way to the Delaware Bay and all over the Northern Chesapeake. The views from the Main rooms are wonderful. Controllable AC in almost every room which made it comfortable for everyone. Plenty of storage space. Owners were very helpful and responsive. My sister rented the 1 bed room apartment on the end when she came to visit for a couple days so its flexible that way. Really the only bad thing (which really wasn't terrible and we worked around it), was the 2nd shower is a little too small for larger people. Still won't stop us from coming back.

The Perfect Escape

What a wonderful home! Our family decided to spend a week on the water for easy access with our boat, and are we sure glad we did! This home was perfect for us, and allowed for us to make the most of our week. The views, the amenities, the dock, the location…it was all perfect. The homeowners were super friendly, helpful and accessible. We plan to return! This home on the C&D was perfect!
