Peace and quiet.

Had another nice getaway. Caught more fish than last time. Best sunsets around. Had a fire going in the evenings and hung out on the pier. Was a real nice way to end vacation season.

Great place for sunsets over the water

Just finished a week at this property and had a fantastic time. The house is small, but perfectly adequate for two or three people. The kitchen is surprisingly well equipped and the patio and fire pit right on the water were worth the price of admission by themselves. I also really appreciate the flexibility for pets.

Beautiful view and cozy cabin

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. It was so nice that the kitchen has updated appliances and was fully stocked. The rest of the cabin was also very clean and comfortable. We started our days sitting on the dock drinking our coffee and ending our days sitting on the dock watching the sunsets. We can’t wait to come back. Joanne

A fishing get away

It’s a fishing shack , and it was great just to relax. My husband and son loved just going out tge door to fish and crab. House is doable for a small family . I was a little disappointed with having the jellies in the water. ( no swimming )

Loved the fish shack

We came to the area on a work trip to help our son get his boat ready for launch. The fish shack offered us a comfy place to relax and rest. It's in a great neighborhood. It's right on the water. The kitchen is well eqipped (we cooked 6 out of 7 nights). Everything works well. This place is not fancy but it's functional and comfy. You can't go wrong here. Jean

The vacation was fantastic I think my grade is 10 out of 10, it's the third time I'm in that place and it's relaxing of course I'm going to recommend it to family and friends, maybe just one point this is not a complaint but there are two trees in bad condition and they are very close to the cabin and on the last day of my vacation I felt a little afraid because of the terrible wind that made I think it's the only thing that made me feel uncomfortable for my family too.

Fishing Cottage not a shack

From the moment we drove in the pots of flowers by the front door made me smile - this was an unexpected surprise, very clean, all updated and top of the line appliances, perfect for the two of us and our Labrador Retriever - beautiful sunsets, bald eagle and osprey flew into the tops of the pines right next to us, the wind nestled in the trees if you would just listen - the best dock in the area - if you want peace and quiet and love nature this is it for you - great restaurant within walking distance..very unexpected amenities...great couple of days for us...very close to Calvert Cliffs and a great hike on the Red Trail...five star host

Great view, lovely cozy house with all kitchen needs…

We (a family of 4 with a dog) had a great relaxing stay for 2 nights in spring vacation week. The view is so beautiful, especially early morning and dawn. The house is nice and lovely, small but have all you need for a short vacation, and gears for you to catch some crabs! It made our stay so comfy and convenient. Big yard, great for kids and dog running around. The only unproductive part is my husband has tried so hard to catch some crabs or fish for two days but ended up didn’t get anything lol. Local people said the water is still cold. Good luck with people at a later stay!

Wonderful place!

I and my 10 year old son stayed at this cottage. It is wonderful, very clean and well-equipped. It did not seem small to us, in fact, it is rather spacious, with 2 bedrooms and a large and very functional kitchen. There is a great patio. We used it to watch sunsets and to view the sky through our telescope, but one can also do some grilling there. For my son, the highlight of the trip was swimming, we spent hours in the water, at his insistence. There were no jellies; I guess it depends on season. The shores are made with large and sharp stones, but there is a ladder into the water from the pier, and the bottom is soft and even. The owner is very responsive, great communication! There is an awesome restaurant just around the corner, and Weis is within 10 min driving. We tried to catch some crabs (very unprofessionally), but did not get any. Overall, we are very happy with our stay!

Relaxing vacation

Very relaxing stay by the water. The house was very clean and the kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, spices, etc. I would recommend a new nonstick but otherwise no issues! Plenty of ac units to stay cool and the dock was perfect for fishing and relaxing. We were able to get our kayaks over the rock wall pretty easily but our pups weren’t fans. They are more for the beach which we did find nearby. The fire pit and grill were great with plenty of charcoal and wood. We did buy extra at the market 10 mins away and leave some extras for the next person. Weis markets is 10 mins away and has everything you should need. Bring bug spray! Overall 5/5 and would stay again!
