Quiet Eastern Shore MD

Very quiet and peaceful location but still near great places to see and eat at. Reed Creek has almost no traffic and very pretty to explore on the kayaks, canoes and paddle boards that you can borrow at the cabin. Creek is fun to swim in. Lots of farm stands around and cabin has everything you need to cook. My daughter loved walking the Lama's and there are great roads to bike on in the whole area.

Perfect Location to Unwind and Relax

The cottage was wonderful and there was plenty of space for oir group of seven people. We selected this location because of all the fabulous reviews and it did not disappoint. Our group of 4 adults and 3 teens had a great time, despite a rainy week. Our goal was to connect with nature and spend time outdoors. The

wonderful property

We enjoyed meeting the hosts and their llamas and emus. The home had everything we needed for our stay, and the view of the water from the house could not be better. We watch the sunsets wherever we go, and the colors were spectacular. There were plenty of things to do, and the restaurants were a short drive away. Thank you for sharing this property with others.

Relaxing Waterfront Getaway

This property is perfect for nature lovers and people trying to get away from life’s hustle and bustle. We saw bald eagles, heron, egrets & lots of jumping fish from the private dock. Sunsets were magical. We’ll definitely be back.

Great weekend getaway

We had a wonderful weekend in this beautiful property and enjoyed a lot of the outdoor activities. From hiking to canoeing, bird watching, playing in the river and visiting with the llamas, we never got bored. It is secluded yet just a few minutes away from the main highway in town. Doug and his family are friendly and very accommodating. I highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys the outdoors.

Lovely getaway

Cute cottage tucked back behind the llamas and emus at the main farm. More than enough space for 5 of us. Plenty of kayaks, SUPs, canoes with an easy launch area next to the dock. Just watch for the amazing huge orb weaver spiders in the evening on the dock and path down to it!

Living it up with llamas

We had a fantastic time at Spring Cove Farm. There’s plenty to do, from chilling with the llamas to enjoying the beach, kayaking and hiking around the farm. The house is well equipped and Doug checks in to make sure you have firewood and other necessities. Highly recommend!

Peaceful and Comfortable

We loved our stay. Mornings on the deck sipping coffee and listening to a symphony of birds in the trees while looking out over the river were lovely. We spent a whole day enjoying the water and appreciated the life vests, sun umbrella to cover the dock benches, and variety of kayaks and canoes to use. Our six year old loved swimming in the shallow water around the dock.

This looks like a lovely property

Unfortunately, due to health and personal reasons, I had to cancel my stay at the last minute. Unfortunately it was well past the refund date, but that was not the owners fault. That said, were I to be in the area again, I would definitely consider staying here.

Perfect family weekend at Spring Cove Farm!

My wife and I, and our daughter's family (including our grandkids (ages 5 and 8) spent an amazing long weekend at Spring Cove Farm. We all loved our stay so much. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed and the pier/water was gorgeous with ample kayaks and paddle boards. The kids fished from the pier for hours upon hours each day, and were thrilled at the selection of toys. Our daughter and son-in-law were working remotely and the Wi-Fi and Internet worked perfectlu. Dr. Dobbins was beyond accommodating. He brought a llama to the house one morning for the kids to pet and allowed us to roam around his beautiful, secluded property. We made fires in the fire pit at night and enjoyed the sounds of nature. We all enjoyed our stay immensely and hope to return next year.

Wonderful retreat

Our family had such a lovely stay at the river house/farm. The house itself is very comfortable and graciously supplied and managed - it's got everything you need, unlike many corporate rentals. The river is very quiet with very few houses nearby, a dock for swimming and kayaks for play. The surrounding towns are very charming as are the hosts and the farm. Highly recommend.

Pleasant home by river, with visiting llama

We were 5 adults whose needs fit well with this property. One guy went fishing while 3 others went kayaking. A couple of us went biking. All of us enjoyed swimming, especially with a little beach a short walk from the house. A unique feature was a visit by a llama, brought to the house by our host. There was plenty to keep us occupied for 4 days. We definitely want to go back.

This place is AMAZING

Absolutely peaceful and beautiful. Feels like a mountain setting on a Chesapeake Creek. Everything about it was great. Stores, shopping and restaurants are fairly close by. Doug was a great host. He let us borrow a fishing rod to fish off the dock. We will definitely be back in the near and far future. To understand how wonderful it is, you have to experience it yourself. You will not be disappointed. I cannot wait to return.

Quite and cozy

Just arrived home from our stay at Spring Cove Farm and I wanted to write my review while it's all fresh. This cozy home is not glitz or glamour, but you can easily find it in nearby Annapolis if that's your thing. It’s on a beautiful farm with trees, trails, fields and a llama or two. Our family is from both coasts, so we were there for the re-connection, peace, quiet and water view. It had all the amenities we wanted to live comfortably during our stay. The "innkeeper" Doug was very welcoming and accommodating and the property is absolutely beautiful. I just can't rave about it enough.
