Waterfront Gem: Dock, Hot Tub, Beach, Pool, Kayaks

CourtneyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Andrea was so responsive from day 1 when I had questions about the house! We had 10 people in town for a wedding and her house was only 3 miles from the venue which was ideal! The house was clean and had nice little extra touches; the bottom floor was surprisingly spacious and perfect for hanging out! And the hot tub was a nice add also! Overall, it was a great experience!

The Glebe

KristinaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had such a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, peaceful, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The layout was perfect for spending quality time together while still giving everyone space to unwind. Private beach access made it even more special—we made great memories, met some lovely neighbors, and even had a chance to paddle board and spot a stingray! Huge shout-out to Leigh, our amazing host—so thoughtful, responsive, and kind. We’re so grateful for the experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous, waterfront home - Perfect for Families.

DavidRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Clare and Chris could not be nicer and easier to work with. My family/friends have been getting together since 1994 and have been to many great Airbnb's and VRBO's. My group could not stop telling me how great of a week we had. The primary features that were import to us which the house scored big are as follows: It has a dock (we arrived via boat), The kitchen is big, laid out for many "Cooks", The kitchen was open to the dining room table, The dining room table is open to the sitting areas, The pool was clean and inviting, The fire pit with seasoned firewood was a big hit for our group, All the beds were comfortable, The bedrooms were large and comfortable, The baths were clean, modern & large and The location to "What to do in Cambridge" is only 7-10 miles away. We made prearrangements: Richardson Maritime Museum to have a guided tour with David Williams on Friday and Spocott Windmill with George Radcliff. Both of these tours were fascinating. Our weekend was 5-Stars.

Osprey Eyrie on the Chesapeake•Pool•Beach•Firepit

AlanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our family had such a great time staying at MJ's place last year that we came back again this summer. As before, we all loved the view, pool, firepit, grilling on the deck, and walking down to the neighborhood beach. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well-stocked. All the beds were comfortable, and all bedrooms had well-functioning blinds/shades, which is really helpful when putting younger kids to bed. The lower level bathroom had been renovated since our last stay which was a great bonus. We are looking forward to returning next summer!

The Little Gypsy BoHome

EricRating, 5 stars2 days ago
All the amenities (pool, sauna, steam shower, etc) were fantastic but attention to the simple things such as; lots of towels, bowls/treats for dogs, paper towels, cleaning and kitchen supplies was terrific. We often see places that miss on the little things that we end up shopping for. This place had it all, made it convenient for us to enjoy ourselves the entire time. This place is a gem and instant favorite of ours. Well done!

Shewell’s Rambler in the Chesapeake Ranch Estates

DanielleRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Lisa & Hyrum were extremely responsive and helpful from beginning to end, even before I decided to book. They were communicative and helpful, which made it an easy decision to choose their property for our stay. The home is well kept, beautiful, super clean and overall perfect for our stay. My only regret is that we didn’t have more time there! We will definitely choose them again when we’re in the area. Would absolutely recommend.

Potomac River Getaway

SkyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Had a great weekend in the Northern Neck here! We watched a pod of dolphins and stingrays from the backyard, enjoyed easy access to nearby parks, and had a great time cooking in the kitchen. This is seemingly a very recently renovated house, and all the towels, sheets, beds, etc. seemed brand new as well. It was super clean, super comfy, and the hosts were very responsive! I liked that the property was surrounded on one side by forest as well—it was nice and quiet and secluded. Finally, they have a super cute collection of board games disguised as old timey books. I'd definitely stay here again!

Riverside Retreat | Firepit & Oak Tree Dining

JennessaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We took advantage of a warm April weekend to get some rest and relaxation as a family. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. We went kayaking, which was amazing, ate all our meals outside and had a fire pit. It is well off the beaten path, which was perfect for our needs. We never left.

Beautiful, serene waterfront property

JonathanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
An incredible peace of property! This house has been beautifully renovated and exceeded every expectation. Unbelievable waterfront views from nearly every room in the house, back porch and fire pit. Also a very nice surprise of having a little play area stocked with toys for the little ones! This is a must stay if we’re ever back in the area!

Luxury Family 5BR: Beach, GameRm, Arcade, Theater

KathrynRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was our second year in a row visiting Julya’s place! Our family loved it so much last year we booked as soon as we could for this season. The house was just as beautiful as we remembered, the kids even said it felt like home the second day. All the thoughtful things included are so nice (blackout shades for the kids, all the kids kitchen stuff, extras for all usable items, beach items). And we love the location! Easy to get to activities, we very much enjoyed the marine museum, the Imaginarium, fishing on the shea-d-lady, and sailing with Sail Solomons. Island Hideway was huge hit with the whole family for dinner. The house is an easy walk to the beach and the view is so cool, feels like a beach treehouse. Will hopefully be back again next year (if not at the end of this season!) 😁 Thank you Julya!!

The View at Jerk Cove - River Escape

KarenRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This was our fourth time staying at this amazing place, and it never disappoints! The pictures really don’t do it justice the home is even more beautiful in person. The backyard is so peaceful and well kept, perfect for relaxing while the kids play. What really makes this place special is the stunning lake view, which you can enjoy right from the living room, kitchen, and bedrooms. It’s the perfect weekend getaway for our family cozy and incredibly relaxing. We always feel right at home here and can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommend!

My wife, 4 year old son and I enjoyed a week at John’s beautiful home on the Patuxent River. The house and property were perfect and the views were amazing every day. The house had everything we needed and we felt right at home. He was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. We look forward to staying here again in the summer!

Cottage on the Bay

HarrietRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a lovely stay at Jennifer’s cottage. Was great to get out of the city and be in such a peaceful area. Loved the private beaches and how quiet they were and easy to get to (on is literally at the end of the road). The kitchen was well equipped as described and Jennifer was easy to get in touch with. Really enjoyed and would love to come back again.
