About the host
Hosted by Doris Price, Homeowner, Overlook on Dun's Cove waterfront vacation home
Dun’s Cove has always been a special location on the Chesapeake Bay for me. For years, my husband and I have anchored there while sailing between Oxford, Kent Island, and Annapolis. So, when Deep Harbor Farm on Dun’s Cove in Sherwood was subdivided into residential lots for sale, we jumped on the opportunity to purchase a waterfront lot of almost 3 acres. Working with local architect Margaret Garey, A.I.A. (Easton, MD), we designed and built a custom, easy care vacation home. We have spent many weekends and vacations enjoying this property which boasts an expansive view of the cove and a mature forest with a healthy mix of native evergreen and deciduous trees.
I have been a host and enjoyed sharing “Overlook on Dun’s Cove” with vacation rental guests for over 15 years. As described below under Why This Property, I have taken pride in overseeing the maintenance and periodic upgrades of the house and property, including its 220 feet of bulkheaded shoreline and deep-water pier.
It is indeed a satisfying pleasure to share our second home with vacation rental guests (several of whom book year after year) so they, too, can experience the comfort, beauty, and serenity of “Overlook on Dun’s Cove.” I look forward to hosting both new and repeat guests this year.

It is indeed a satisfying pleasure to share our second home with vacation rental guests (several of whom book year after year) so they, too, can experience the comfort, beauty, and serenity of “Overlook on Dun’s Cove.” I look forward to hosting both new and repeat guests this year.
Why they chose this property
Dun’s Cove is an especially scenic and ecologically vibrant bay in the Chesapeake watershed where residents and visitors enjoy abundant crabbing, fishing, oyster beds, and exceptional birdwatching (to include the spotting of bald eagles and other rare bird species). Under the guidance of our architect, we sited and designed a custom-built weekend cottage to complement and highlight the natural beauty of the wooded lot and expansive view of the cove. Examples include: a floor-to-ceiling A-frame window wall facing the water; a wrap-around deck of over 1,000 square feet; and an open concept interior with large windows which bring the outside in whether you are working in the kitchen, eating at the dining table, or sitting around the fireplace in the living area.
The property has its own private deep-water pier with lighting, electricity, water, and a dock box that accommodates sail or power yachts up to 40-feet in length. We also provide professional mosquito and insect control so you can comfortably enjoy outdoor activities and lounging on the deck.
In 2016, working with a highly respected general contractor and a renowned kitchen specialist (Kitchen Encounters, Annapolis, MD), I completed a top-to-bottom renovation of the interior and exterior of the house. In 2022, I did an upgrade of both bathrooms, to include the showers, tub, tile, custom glass shower enclosures, toilet, and new polished chrome fixtures. Vrbo traveler reviews comment on the exceptional cleanliness and meticulous maintenance of the house and property. “Overlook on Dun’s Cove” has earned a 5-star (5.0) rating with over 100 reviews by Vrbo travelers.
