Amazing Chesapeake Getaway
We had an amazing stay—so much fun, and the host was absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a quiet, private getaway near the Bay.The host, who lives next door, was incredibly warm and welcoming. She helped us get settled, offered great local recommendations, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our stay. Any questions we had were quickly and kindly addressed.She also generously shared her kayaks, paddle boards, and crabbing equipment, which made it easy for us to enjoy all the outdoor activities without a worry. The private pier with Adirondack chairs was a perfect place to relax, watch the sunset, and take in the local wildlife.We would definitely come back and stay here again!

Overall great experience. Property had everything you could ask for. Kids loved fishing and crabbing from the dock as well as kayaking on the East River. 10 minute drive to a very clean beach.

Great Stay on the East River!!
We really enjoyed our stay in this cottage. Right on the river with kayaks and paddleboards available. Brand new BBQ ready for use. Everything was clean and the kitchen was nicely appointed. Town of Mathews is just a short jaunt down the road. Our family had a great time!! Five stars!
