Awesome property and experience

My family stayed at the property in July on 2021 for my Parents Weekend during my son's plebe summer for USNA. We decided to stay here again for my son's commissioning week as he graduated near 4 years later. We enjoyed a week of happiness as a family that we will never forget. The house and property were awesome for us.

Best house ever!

We had such a wonderful time, looking at the bay from every window. Such a cute and charming house on one of the Chesapeake Bay inlets (protected from the wind of the main part of the bay). Nice enough to kayak in November, outdoor bonfire and s'mores, huge front area to throw the football, such a beautiful area.

Great house and location

This was a perfect home base for us. We visited the area for a weekend golf trip. It’s central to several excellent courses, a short drive to Baltimore and the house interior is nicely updated. Beds were very comfortable too! The owner was also very helpful in her communications.

Comfy and cozy!

We stayed for a few days over the holidays. A half way point for our families to get together. The house was PERFECT! Clean, cozy, well maintained. Lots of things to do locally. And we had nice enough weather to enjoy the fire pit every night.

Best stay on the Bay!

This was our second stay and it didn’t disappoint. In fact, it was better due to our he additional updates the the house and the pier. The entire family has a blast swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and relaxing under the trees. The neighborhood 4th of July festivities are top notch. We hope to return again soon.

Spring Trip

We visited the last week of March for a nearby wedding. The house is super cool, right on the creek with a ton of awesome built-in amenities. An easy drive to Annapolis, DC and Baltimore, but off the beaten path enough to feel the peace and quiet on the creek. Melinda was super helpful and responsive to all of our questions and needs!

Accommodating and beautiful!

This house was absolutely perfect for my family to stay during our time in Pasadena. It was spotless, accommodating in every way, and had the most beautiful sunrises! I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking to get away or just stay in a nice place at an affordable cost. Melinda was an excellent host and was very communicative before, during, and even after our stay. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Love this place and this area

This was a fantastic property and an even better area. Much of the house has been updated. Beds and bathrooms were very comfortable. We loved sitting on the water and by the fire pit in the evenings watching the fire flies come out. The kids enjoyed the kayaks and catching fish. Neighbors were very nice too. Very easy drive to Annapolis, Baltimore and DC.

Great DC getaway

We really enjoyed our stay! It was the perfect house for our group of 6 to getaway from DC for New Years. The kitchen is very well stocked (including a crock pot!) and the basement was the perfect place to watch new years day football! We even got weather nice enough to enjoy the outside firepit. And the sunsets did not disappoint. Thanks for such a great place to ring in the New Year!

Family fun in Maryland

This immaculate house is on a quiet creek/inlet. Kayaking, fishing, crabbing - it’s at your back door. The sunrise is spectacular while you have your morning coffee next to the water. An osprey hung out in a tree by the back deck. Inside plenty of space for games or work. Recommend

Wonderful Getaway Weekend

This home is very well maintained. With 6 adults, we had more than enough room. We enjoyed fishing from the spacious dock, relaxing in the hammock, playing badminton and a nice fire and s'mores every night. The home has a well stocked kitchen for cooking meals. The bedrooms were tastefully decorated with comfortable beds. I would highly recommend this home. We stayed for a weekend but there would have been plenty to do for a whole week. Next time, we'll enjoy the kayaks and bicycles and hopefully catch a crab dinner.

Relaxing Time on the Water

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house. It was very relaxing to spend time next to the water on the house's dock. We also enjoyed taking out the kayaks and playing games such as corn hole. The location and house was a just a fun place to be. There was not a single item in the kitchen or elsewhere that we needed. The owner was very responsive to my questions. We would definitely come back again.

Short family get awat

We enjoyed quiet mornings and evenings watching the water. There are restaurants, grocery stores, and seafood marts in the area that made meals easy, but if want to cook the kitchen is very well equipped! Getting into Baltimore and to a park in the area was easy enough. Nothing we went to was more than 30 minutes away. When we came home at the end of our adventures we found all the beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were quite nice. We enjoyed meeting the neighbor as well.

Just Right

We had a great week at this house. The location was convenient to get to as well as get to other things in the area - but felt remote enough to feel like we were away from it all. The house and outside had plenty of spaces to gather or find some alone time. Very good kitchen. Used the fire pit most nights. Some of us fished several days and used the crab trap all week. Communication with the Owners was easy and they were quick to reply. We would certainly stay here again.

Spaces for all together and separate. Feels like a world away yet convenient to restaurants, airport and activities. Beds comfortable. Quality super clean towels. Lots to do inside and outside. Bob and Melinda reply immediately. Even on rainy days property positioned such that you feel you are on the water. Love washer dryer. Laminate flooring main level easy to maintain and just have fun.

Pasadena Perfect !

Wow wow wow. We cannot begin to sing the praises of this beautiful cottage! The large property is perfect for lawn games. The boat house had everything you would ever need with wonderfully clear instructions on where to find things and how to use them. The fire pit included a spectacular view of the water with a rising moon. Our kitchen was well equipped , the beds were comfy and the playroom downstairs had the biggest tv we’ve ever seen to watch the season opener of SNL Melinda, thank you for sharing your beautiful home! We were all scrambling for dates to plan a return trip Jan and friends

About the host

Hosted by Melinda Jones

Host profile image
We currently live in California, with frequent visits to Maryland. We love the outdoors and lead a very active lifestyle. Never a dull moment!

Why they chose this property

My husband, Bob, grew up coming to Pasadena, MD to spend the summer with family on the Back Creek. He learned how to waterski and boat on this creek. His parents ended up buying and building a house on Back Creek for their retirement. Our family of four, visited every summer and our two kids learned how to waterski and boat on Back Creek, just like their dad. We love it here! We love it so much that when the right piece of property came on the market we wanted to have a piece of Back Creek to call our own.

What makes this property unique

The views are amazing!! We love the large flat lot with plenty of room to play!
