We enjoyed the location of the cozy cottage. The inside of the place was very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The outside needs sone TLC for the weeds and outside furniture.

Cute cottage where you can wake up to sunrise on the Chesapeake Bay! Great place to stay, cozy inside, clean and comfortable. Good size and function for a family getaway. Nice backyard space to be outside by the water. Picnic table for eating crabs, hot tub and firepit to enjoy at night. Front yard has a swing set for kids. Parking for three cars. Would visit again!

Backyard outside river view was incredible and cottage was cute. BUT . . . it was infested with ants particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. The outside cushions (not the same ones in the pictures) are in bad shape and had spider webs all over them. Hot tub had dirty filters and the cover was moldy. No outside light in front. Landscape over grown. No closets in two of the bedrooms. Only one hand towel avaliable unlike the picture.Highly disappointed.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 June 2026
Thank you for your review. What is particularly disappointing is that during your stay and in our direct communications, you repeatedly indicated that you were happy with the property and enjoying your visit. It was only after checkout, when your request for a refund related to circumstances outside of anyone’s control, including the natural outdoor environment along the river was declined, that these complaints suddenly appeared. As a waterfront cottage surrounded by nature, occasional insects, spiders, and outdoor debris can occur despite regular cleaning and maintenance. Had any concerns been reported during your stay, we would have gladly addressed them immediately, as we do for all guests. We take constructive feedback seriously and continuously invest in maintaining and improving the property. However, we believe future guests should know that the concerns raised in this review were not communicated while the guest was on-site and only surfaced after a refund request was denied. We encourage potential guests to review our many other reviews, which provide a more complete picture of the experience we strive to offer.

Relaxing

Landscaping was a little lacking. We're older so the low furnishings were a little challenging, but overall; very relaxing and pretty much what we expected.

Lovely spot at the head of the Chesapeake

Charming place with several private sleeping areas. My favorite was the screened in porch. Pet friendly and literally right on the water. Close to the small town of Charlestown. Play equipment for children. I didn't use the hot tub but it was conveniently already heated.
