Great getaway!

We enjoyed our trip, the house was fully equipped and had all the comforts you could need. The water view, watching the birds, the kayak, the dock at sunrise, were our favorite things. We look forward to coming back sometime soon.

Perfect weekend house

Charming house with every amenity to enjoy the water- we were there for the Ironman so didn’t spend much time at the house but now want to come back just to have time to take advantage of everything the hosts offer to make it a great getaway spot. Thank you!

Thanksgiving 2024

The perfect Thanksgiving. House was just right for family of three although more people would have been fine too. Lived the crab shack and played lots of pool and ping pong. Kitchen well stocked. Owners were prompt in responding to any questions. We would come back in a heartbeat.

Thoughtful accommodations and excellent communication!

We stayed with 2 toddlers and the house was thoughtfully prepared! Equipped with games, coloring books, S’mores and bug spray! Rebecca was very responsive to messages. Enjoyed catching crabs off the dock and gaming in the garage. Highly recommend to young families.

Fantastic Family Stay Away from Home!

The Hudson House was perfect for our stay. My boys were in awe of the house. The owners have made it so cozy and have paid such close attention to details. There were snacks, amazing notes to help you navigate the house, and games to keep the kids busy. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to have a relaxing weekend right on the water. -Nicole M.

Oasis

This property was magnificent! It is located away from people and immersed in the natural beauty of the eastern shore. I have never stayed anywhere so family friendly with a designated "crab shack/game room" (formerly the 2 car garage). The owners thought of everything, including the S'mores for the fire pit! Thanks for a lovely vacation!

Very Nice Property, Very Well Managed

We spent a week at this house. It was clean and professionally managed. We were impressed by all the little touches -- firewood and fire-starters in the garage, "S'mores Kit" in the kitchen, crab traps baited and set, propane steamer set up and ready, etc. They really fool-proofed the crabbing setup. The house is thoughtfully (and festively) decorated, the amenities are all there (though we did need to buy trash bags and TP), and the host is responsive to communication. Paddle-boards and a tandem kayak are provided for fair-weather fun. Pool, table-tennis, Connect-Four, and other games are set up in the "Crab House" for rainy-day recreation. We were sad to leave. Very well done!

My kids voted this the BEST weekend ever!

This house is incredible! Probably the cleanest rental house I have ever stayed in! The house was well stocked and very comfortable. However, we didn’t spend much time in the house because the outside is the real winner! The Crab House has everything to entertain kids and adults for hours! We spent all day in the yard, taking in the beautiful sights! If you are an early riser, like myself and one son, don’t miss the sunrise. So peaceful! If you are looking for crabs while there, Soft & Salty Seafood is less than 5 minutes away!

Peaceful Waterfront Cottage

A nice stay in the small waterfront cottage on the Hudson Creek near Cambridge MD. It would be perfect if the cottage has a more direct view of the water and a quieter AC in the bedroom.

Home Away From Home

This house exceeded our expectations in every way. The kitchen is large and well-appointed, the beds are comfortable, and the peace and quiet is priceless. We enjoyed morning coffee in the sunroom, table tennis in the crab house, sunsets from the dock, and stargazing at the firepit. If you desire peace and quiet this house is a perfect choice!

A great stay in a beautiful location

We had a great few days here. The house was well-appointed, and there was so much to keep our grandchildren occupied, from ping pong to pool to checking for crabs in the crab pots. It was far enough from town to feel peaceful and serene, but still close to everything we wanted to do. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay!

After booking our trip for late June our granddaughter was chosen for the All Star softball team and had several games during the week iv our stay. I reached out to Rebecca and she generously offered us a week in August and she honored the June price! What A great experience we had! This was one of the cleanest places we have ever rented. Lovely decor, new appliances, comfy beds. The garage was so much fun. We enjoyed the basketball, ping pong and pool table. We spent time sitting in the Adirondack chairs chairs, enjoying the breeze. When we first arrived we were delighted to find several crab traps filled with crabs! We visited St. Michael’s one day and had several good meals in nearby Cambridge. But, our favorite day if all was spent just enjoying the water. We crabbed, paddle boarded and floated in river tubes we purchased at Walmart. We got three dozen crabs and had a delicious crab party! Wonderful stay! When I got home I realized I left my makeup bag behind. Rebecca and her husband kindly had it shipped to our home! Great home, area and hosts!
