The pictures do not do it justice. This is a beautifully kept property. Everything we needed was available to us. We were there for a girls weekend and everything you could ever want to do was within a 5 to 10 minute walk from the house. ButWe enjoyed our stay tremendously.

Great location outside gate 3 of USNA. Walkable to everything. Very clean property and all supplies you need are included. Nice backyard sitting area. I had an issue trying to get door unlocked with the August app, but the problem was on my end and host Patty was quick to get door unlocked for us.

USNA Visit

Came up with another couple to tour the Naval Academy and historic Annapolis and attend the football game. The location of this property was great as it was on a dead in street, quite, and yet walking distance to everything. Layout and decor of the property was very nice! Next visit we'll stay there again.

Amazing Annapolis Home

We stayed here for the US Sailboat Show and the home is perfect. Nicely remodeled and close to City Dock and all of the action in downtown Annapolis. We loved having coffee in the morning in the backyard. Patty was great to deal with and we look forward to coming back next year. Thanks again, Dan

Would recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay here this past weekend. The place was clean, decorated nicely, and included all necessities. The location was perfect since it is a quick walk to the dock, restaurants, and bars. It was also on a quiet street right near the colleges. Patty was very responsive when we had trouble getting into the townhouse. I would stay here again and would recommend it to others!
