About this property
Private 2 Acre Waterfront Family Retreat with Pool & Pier
Fishing Cove is a fully-furnished eight-bedroom six-bath private waterfront family-friendly house tucked away in a lush pine forest. Our waterfront vacation home is on a very private cove with 2 acres of waterfront property and a large private dock and 3 boat slips. Easy access by car, or by boat from the Chesapeake Bay.
Drink your morning coffee on our 12' x 72' deck watching the birds and deer. Fish and crab from our pier. Swim in our pool. Our large welcoming house has everything you need for a relaxed vacation on the Eastern Shore, including accessibility features - electric wheelchair lift, ramps and wide main floor doors.
Located on Fishing Creek off the Little Choptank 9 miles from Cambridge, Maryland, we are near Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, and our shoreline attracts an amazing variety of waterfowl. We have great bicycling roads: Flat and scenic, so bring your bikes. Bring your canoe and explore the shoreline. The house is wonderful any time of the year!
During the summer we generally rent by the week only - from Saturday to Saturday, so if the calendar seems confusing, just click on the Saturday you want to begin your stay, and it will automatically offer you a full week. You can always contact the owner if you need different dates that you can't click on.
All new mattresses, new super-fast Fiber Optic WiFi, new geothermal heating and air conditioning system, new paint inside and out, and much more!
Sorry, we cannot accommodate weddings, wedding receptions or large group events. Nice doggies are considered. Our insurance policy excludes Pitbulls, Rottweilers, Mastifs.

About the host
Hosted by Virginia Townsend Rubsam
With 3 married children and five grandchildren we added a second floor to Fishing Cove to accommodate all of us as well as our friends. When our family isn't using Fishing Cove we offer it to other families so they can enjoy it as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
We bought this house because of its PERFECT location. It is only 60 miles from Annapolis so getting there is easy, going from the hustle of city life to perfect peace in an hour's drive. It started out as a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house that we enlarged and improved to fit the needs of our own large extended family. Then we decided to offer it to other large families for their vacations so they can enjoy it too!
What makes this property unique
We have a large house with lots of space for multi-generational family get-togethers. There's something to do for everyone.
