Peaceful River House

We enjoyed this beautiful river home over the weekend with our adult children and their spouses as we were attending a wedding in Easton. It was about a 20 minute ride through cornfields and Eastern Shore countryside. The house was clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the peaceful Choptank River. We would definitely like to stay again

Beautiful location, relaxing atmosphere

My group and I chose this house as a retreat. It was a perfect place for rest, reconnection, and relaxation. This house was very clean, including the linens. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, and there was even a spice cabinet to use. We used the kayak and the outdoor firepit which was a lovely addition to the weekend. We had two issues: lack of an outdoor trashcan which according to the property manager is supposed to be resolved and a wonky bathroom door that hung sideways and didn't shut which made it awkward for people using the bathroom. Thank goodness we were close friends. Fortunately, these didn't interfere with our enjoyment of the property and the weekend.

Another great stay at the River House

This was our second stay at the River House and it was great. Everything was as listed and expected. We took day trips to Assateague Island, Annapolis and St. Michaels. Our boys loved being able to fish in the backyard as well as at the wharf one house over. It is a very peaceful and quiet neighborhood with beautiful views. The owner is very responsive and everything from check-in to check-out went smoothly.

Mothers Day Weekend

The stay here was just how I envisioned. The home was beautiful, clean and peaceful. It was a little chilly during the stay so we couldn’t experience any water activities but that didn’t stop the fun by a long shot. My husband was able to fish as much as he wanted with no interruptions and he caught a nice amount of fish also. 10/10 definitely recommend this home for a nice relaxing weekend. And the host was super helpful and super nice.

About the host

Hosted by Steven Gregory

Hi, we're Bruna and Steven. We are a loving family with two young boys, residing in coastal Maryland. We love our house on Maryland's Eastern Shore and want others to experience its beautiful setting.

Why they chose this property

Enjoy the day on the water in our kayak or paddle board, or explore all the wonderful, quaint towns of Maryland's Eastern Shore, offering a variety of experiences and great dining options.

At the end of the day, fire up the grill and eat on the deck, while watching the birds make their way back for the night--we have them all from cackling seagulls to majestic herons and eagles. Don't forget to take in the sunset from the adirondack chairs. Then, move to the firepit to roast marshmallows, while sipping a nice cup of hot tea or glass of wine.

What makes this property unique

The home is located in a quiet, residential waterfront community. If you would like to bring your boat or personal watercraft, you can launch at a public boat ramp less than a block away. Any public slip use or trailers left at ramp site may need a permit. You can obtain a permit through the county. Otherwise, you can park the boat/PWC/trailer in the driveway of the home.
