Great trip, great house
2 night weekend trip with the family to check out USNA. House was perfect for us and the kids. Grill and back porch were perfect for grilling and meals. Check in and out was super easy, and comms with owner were great. Highly recommended for any family looking for a quiet, easy getaway to Annapolis, but away from the downtown bustle.

Quiet retreat close to Annapolis
We loved the clean, comfortable property in this quiet neighborhood. The house was well stocked and within walking distance to the neighborhood beach and park. It’s a short drive to Annapolis, but there are also restaurants and a grocery store nearby which were great options on a busy holiday weekend. Sharon was easy to communicate with and proactive in reaching out to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Our East Coast cottage
This is our 4th stay. We love the value, location, and water accessibility. This is an easy, short drive to USNA, which is what brings us to the area. We just commissioned our last child, and sadly won’t be back (most likely), but will 200 pct recommend Sharon’s Bach cottage to anyone looking for a quaint place to stay.
The outdoor space is a bonus, and sitting beachside in the evening to relax after a long day is one of our favorite things to do.
10 out of 10!!

Great place to stay with family
We were here for Parent’s Weekend at the USNA. This was a great place to stay and relax. Very comfortable and clean and the house has everything you need. We enjoyed a family meal on the beautiful porch and time at the beach. Groceries, coffee, pizza and ice cream were only five minutes away. The host was fantastic. We will be back.

Excellent Stay
This home exceeded our expectations! It's very well maintained, nicely decorated, and had several very nice features. We loved spending time on the screened in porch and appreciated the outdoor shower for rinsing off sand. It's within easy walking distance of the beach and in a quiet community. The host is an excellent communicator and very responsive. Great experience all around for our family!

We needed a place to stay in our neighborhood while we were moving out of our house. Sharon's place was a terrific refuge from the packing/moving craziness. Communication was great; Sharon worked with us to make our stay everything we needed it to be. The house was clean and had all the kitchen tools and other amenities that made family living possible.

A peaceful Bay Cottage
We first found this little gem 4 yrs ago, bringing our son to the Naval Academy. And booked it for the 2nd time this week for his Graduation. We have also requested another weeks stay in the future.
We love the location! And private beach. Our favorite spot is the screened in porch….making additional living space in the outdoors. The ceiling fans make it most comfortable.
Feels like home on the Bay.

Peaceful home away from home
Sharon keeps this home impeccably clean and well appointed! There was nothing that we needed for our comfort that was not provided. The screened-in back patio was spacious and inviting. The twinkle lights gave it a magical glow at night. The living room was comfortable for us to spend time together as a family. We have this property on our list of favorites, and we can’t wait to come back!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The screened porch is amazing, and we spent many hours out there. A nearby shopping area provides you with all necessities.

Cape St. Clair Getaway
The house was just as advertised. The screened in patio was very nice. The house is a 2 minute walk from a playground and a small private community beach on the Chesapeake Bay. The house has excellent directions for driving into Annapolis and avoiding Route 50. We took a day trip to Quiet Waters State Park and rode our bikes and did some kayaking. It was about a 20 minute drive from the house.
