The Space:
Experience a piece of Southern Maryland history. Bancroft Manor was among the first homes along St Leonard's creek. Every square foot of this house was renovated in 2019 - but the unique Tidewater Maryland architecture remains.
The Manor resides on 3 secluded acres. Close to everything Southern Maryland has to offer, yet feels a million miles away.
The Garden Cottage has a private yard with gas grill and and it's own private entrance. There are no spaces (other than the 3 acres of property grounds) that are shared with other guests or the owners.
Your suite is appointed in absolute luxury! Not a detail has been missed in making this your new favorite get away spot.
The kitchen has a full fridge, electric range/oven and large single basin sink. As well as everything you need to prepare and enjoy a meal. The kitchen also has a microwave, keurig coffee maker and dishwasher.
You'll find a starter supply of coffee pods, sugar packets, toilet paper (3), and paper towels (1).
Your living room is appointed with a 32 inch smart TV. Login to your Netflix, Hulu or Prime TV account and watch your favorite movie or show.
WIFI is available.
Your bedroom has a comfortable plush queen bed with nightstands and a lamp as well as easy reach for wireless device charging.
The bathroom has a shower/tub combo, and a good sized single sink vanity. You'll also find premium shampoo, conditioner and body wash should you need it. This bathroom is equipped with all the luxuries of home - including the size.
Enjoy your evenings in the garden with a glass of wine. Grab some local meat/produce just up the road at The Chesapeake's Bounty and fire up the grill. Or take a 5 minute stroll just down the road for a drink and dinner on the water at Vera's Beach Club.
The Neighborhood:
While this property is not directly on the water, the water is all around us and our property has seasonal water views. You can take a 5 minute walk down the road to Vera's and be right on the water for lunch/dinner and water fun.
Whatever you're looking for in a relaxing get away - you'll find it here in Solomons/Lusby! Launch a kayak, stand up paddle board, ride a jet ski, take a hike...or bring a book and just relax and enjoy a picnic on the property.
Solomons boardwalk is a 10 minute drive down the road with the best seafood this area has to offer. Drive (or take an Uber if you want throw back a couple cocktails) to Solomons and enjoy the best sunset you've seen in a long time.
We are incredibly grateful to be your hosts. Please reach out with any questions.
