About this property

Cute, cozy cottage getaway

Cute, cozy, and cheery...this little ranch house is on a quiet street in the quaint fishing village of Wenona, a small community on the southern tip of Deal Island. Crabbing and oystering are a way of life on the island. It makes for a peaceful vacation retreat. Even though water view is from just one window in the house, what this does mean is that you are very close to water...just minutes from a public boat ramp! This little house lives large and pleasant with its newly remodeled kitchen offering plenty of counter space, lots of big windows and bright light, and fresh paint throughout. We have so enjoyed this home and hope you will too with your next visit to Deal Island.

Great time on Deal Island

We were going to Deal Island to visit some family. While there we did some fishing and crabbing. We had a fantastic time on the Island and are looking forward to our next visit. We will tell all of our extended family to stay in the cozy cottage. Thanks again!!

Peaceful Getaway!

My husband and I were staying in the area to help our son & daughter-in-law with some projects. This sweet cottage was the perfect place to stay! The house was so clean and welcoming - had everything we needed and was in a peaceful, quiet spot. We could see the water from the deck and we slept so well! We look forward to returning and spending a week hopefully soon! Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us!

Quiet but with Animal Noises!

Pros:The house - Super clean, and the beachy decoration was really cute! The kitchen is stocked with general stuff you'll need. And the sunlight! Oh my gosh, the house feels like it was built for light!The yard - We didn't try the grill or sit out on the deck (because bugs) but there is ample room if you've got kiddos or dogs that need some space. (We did find some old bug spray in the cabinet, so that was useful!)The neighborhood - Really peaceful, and the neighbors are super friendly. (Everyone waves!) There are chickens and a rooster across the street, which was really charming, and sheep out back. All the animals belong to neighbors, but I really enjoyed watching the neighbor corral the sheep.Cons: Well water - I've never been exposed to well water before, and it wasn't my favorite. There is a definite odor to it and it leaves a brown film on everything because of the iron. As the listing says, you'll want to bring your own drinking water.Amenities - We had to locate sheets and make our own beds, which wasn't a big deal, but I wasn't expecting it. There aren't any toiletries provided. We also had to buy a roll of paper towels.The island - You should know that you've got a drive to get off the island. Though there's zero traffic, it takes like 20 minutes to get to the main road before you can go anywhere. Just be prepared for that.We would definitely come back in the future, and I can see why the place is booked during the summers!

We had such a peaceful and relaxing time.

All the details are well thought out. So family friendly and yet simple enough for a couple that just want to get away and relax. Very peaceful.

Good place to stay

The property was clean but very secluded. It worked for us as we had a short stay. There is no wifi and the closest place to get quality meals is in Princess Ann about 20 miles away; but the kitchen facilities were adequate so you could bring food to cook.

Very Cozy

We enjoyed the stay very much. The home is in a quiet area and close to the little beach. The use of items in the shed for fishing/crabbing was very helpful. The only downfall we had was the front door, in the afternoon the door gets so hot we had to use towels to touch the handles and the door itself without being burned. I got a small burn on my elbow from touching the door.

Very Welcoming Excellent Location Home!

If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, this house is definitely the one to rent! You are surrounded by beauty and it is extremely quiet. You are a short walk away from viewing the water and a very short drive away from the little beach. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and seeing all the sights. We especially enjoyed walking through the very old cemeteries as we are both into history. We also took a driving tour around the island and stopped at a few places around the island to enjoy the view. The home is VERY welcoming. As soon as I walked in, I felt right at home and relaxed. The owners have stocked the house very well with all the little odds and ends you may need. Will most definitely stay here again! Thank you for such a lovely experience!

I am 78 years old and I enjoyed biking, kayaking and fishing in secluded areas that can be found by being friendly to everyone you meet. I also liked the stillness of the night. Thank you for having me and my friend Dirk Moore!!!!

Wonderful stay in a cute little cottage off the beaten path

Staying in Wenona was a great getaway. The house was exactly as it was depicted in the listing, and there were so many amenities both in the house and in the shed to make the stay very enjoyable. The one surprise I had was that I didn’t realize I would need to put sheets on the bed when I got there. The bed was made up with the comforter and pillows, so when I got ready to go to sleep, it was a little confusing to realize that I had to make the bed before climbing in. Otherwise, everything else was perfect and it was a great week on Deal Island!

Seclusion peace tranquility

I wanted low key away from the hustle and bustle, vacation and this house was in the perfect setting! It felt like home! Had all the amenities needed for a family. House was clean, spacious yard for our dogs as well . With an hour or so ride to OC the girls had some fun as well. Thanks for allowing us to stay at your home!

STARS!

I've lived in the city for a number of years now and I forgotten how many stars there are! The night sky was absolutely beautiful. The house was comfy, plenty of room and spotless. The neighborhood was quiet, very walkable, near a small harbor. I'll definitely again when I can.

mini vacation

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home Mary. The pictures do not do it justice. My husband and I took a couple days to come down to fish and I was extremely pleased at how clean the place was and how well stocked. Also that you are right around the corner from the launch ramp was really great. Had a great time even though it was a little windy one day to go out, but managed to fish from the beach and catch some rockfish. Will definately rent again. Harry and Brenda from New Windsor, MD
