Your Waterfront Coastal Getaway on the Chesapeake Bay

Nestled in a peaceful waterfront community of just 15 homes along the stunning Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom vacation rental (sleeps eight) offers breathtaking sunrises and panoramic bay views. Surrounded by lush landscaping on a hill, with just a few steps leading down to a semi-private sandy beach, this home provides the perfect retreat.

 

Located on the Western shore of Chesapeake Bay in Southern Maryland, just 45 minutes from Washington, D.C. and Annapolis, Maryland, the home is beautifully decorated with artwork, oriental rugs, and comfortable furnishings, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

 

Take in the expansive views of Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, stretching over 8 miles, watch eagles and osprey hunt, and observe crab boats sailing by – all while being just steps from the water. It’s a photographer’s paradise.

 

Enjoy fishing and crabbing from our 450-foot pier that extends into Chesapeake Bay, stroll along the sandy beach just steps from the house, or explore nearby wooded trails.

REVIEWS

GUEST REVIEWS

“We had a girl's getaway here for my 30th birthday, and the experience far exceeded our expectations. The house was beautiful and was just steps from a private beach, there are clear views of the bay from almost every corner of the house, and I fell asleep to a 180 degree view of the bay and the sounds of the surf in the master bedroom. Its minutes from Solomon's Island and has something for everyone. The owners are extremely helpful and courteous. I'd highly recommend it and will come back again!”
