Relaxing Stay
The house was nice and the property is spacious. Great views from the dining room table. A little steep heading down to the dock but not terrible. Very private setting, but also only 5 mins away from pretty much anything you could need. Some nice restaurants just across the bridge in Solomons Island. Would love to return in warmer weather to take advantage of the kayaks and water.

Like Going to Grandma's House
We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay at this cozy house, a little piece of history on the Patuxent River with serene water views. The connected rooms, bed configurations (and foosball table!) upstairs were a good set up for family with children; grandparents were able to have more privacy on the main floor. The house is old but we like that. It is clearly well-loved, and has much more character than most newer, sleeker properties. For one, I have certainly never stayed in a rental house with a real player piano. (We did have to make an effort to keep the kids from playing with that fragile antique!) We loved our visit and hope to have occasion to return.

Perfect Private Peninsula
We had a great stay during Thanksgiving, enjoying the private waterfront yard, and close proximity to food and activities. We stayed with our pup who loved the yard and being able to explore the dock and kayak in the river. The kitchen worked great for cooking our Thanksgiving meal, and the rustic charm interior made the home feel cozy and warm for the holiday. We can’t wait to return in the future!

Family Fun Time
Quitesential bay vacation. The house is old and loaded with character. As a person that has been visiting the Pax river area since the early 70's, this brought back many childhood memories.

Fantastic property and house!
Great stay, beautiful house, yard and porch. Plenty to do, could have spent the whole trip at the house! We loved the player piano but please be careful with the rolls, a lot had rips and are very delicate! Beautiful area to kayak and a nice point to wave at your family as they paddle away. My husband took his canoe from the house and met us at Myrtle Point beach! Caught tons of perch. Notes: You have to walk through the foosball bedroom to get to the queen w/ twin bedroom. Also note that all three upstairs bedrooms have to share the first floor bathroom right at the bottom of the stairs. Not an issue for us! This house shares the dock/boats with another rental house. Was a bummer when we planned to go kayking and they had taken all the kayaks. Watch out for traffic going over the solomon bridge. I think this was unusual but it took us 30 minutes to get to the house from the main intersection in California. But very minor notes on what I would consider a perfect weekend get away!

Large Property and House with Water View
This house was perfectly located four visit purpose and intent. The large hose was located on a creek off teh Patuxent RIver, had great views of the water with kayaks to enjoy, bikes to ride and a sailboat for cruising. It was a rare find in the rental world.

It is a cool house that has a lot of potential, but it definitely needs some work to make it more comfortable and livable.

Charming Old House
We really enjoyed our stay at this property while visiting the area for Christmas. This older home with lots of charm was like spending the night at Grandma's house. We really liked that the interior was kept as original as possible with lots of wood and the antique appliances worked well. The waterfront property has great views and the we really appreciated the Christmas decorations that made it feel like home. We also enjoyed playing Christmas music on the 1920s player piano. The dining area was very spacious and great for Christmas dinner. We enjoyed playing the available games since we were inside a lot with the low teens temperatures outside. With a few minor improvements, I would consider this property perfect although none of these would prevent us from renting the property again. The HVAC struggled to keep up with the abnormally cold weather on the 1st floor. This could have been alleviated if the fireplace had been working (or better yet, a gas fireplace) One of the bathroom sinks had low water pressure. The seating while plentiful could be more comfortable.
