Quaint cottage with serene water view!

Our comfortable and relaxing studio is a quiet retreat with a fantastic view while still only a 30 minute drive to Annapolis, and an hour drive to Washington DC or Baltimore. Situated in a charming waterfront and sailing community, this separate and private unit has: parking, 1 bath, queen bed, kitchen(limited), high speed Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker. Wake up to the cluck cluck of our four resident chickens who are tucked away in their attractive coop.

Sit on the porch and take in the serene view of the West River or take a leisurely 15 minute walk to two waterfront restaurants, Pirate's Cove or Stan and Joe's Riverside. Watch the boats go by and the sun set over the beautiful West River while dining out.

Lovely cottage in quiet waterfront town
Unit is attached to owners detached garage. Lovely quiet setting with water view (property not on the water). Clean, tasteful nautical decor. Note that other than electric baseboard in bathroom, unit not heated, so can be chilly early or late in season. There is an AC.

Perfect Cottage - Cute, Cozy, Clean and Peaceful!
The cottage is decorated just like the pictures show in the advertisement. It's super cute, clean, and cozy. The linens and amenities added to the perfect stay also - coffee maker, coffee, toiletries, extra towels, mints, blue-tooth speaker... We enjoyed coffee on the porch every morning and a cocktail in the evening, looking out at the water. The chickens were fun to watch. They are in a coop and were very quiet. (No rooster.) The owner responded to messages quickly. She even called to verify some information. The check-in and check-out details were provided prior to our visit and made the whole process seamless. This was a perfect location for our getaway! I grew up in the area and wanted to be close to family and a wedding venue. We enjoyed lunch at Stan and Joe's and dinner at Pirates Cove. Both are right on the water in Galesville, just 2 minutes from the cottage. I would highly recommend this cottage and plan to visit again!

Peaceful Getaway
I was not expecting this place to be a part of the garage. The driveway is long and narrow. It is very close to the main house. Difficult to drive to and from the place. For this reason, I would not rent again along with owner asking me to take the trash out. No dishwasher and you are expected to wash dishes before you leave. Wine glasses provided are plastic so if you expect glass bring your own. Place is pretty basic. Bed is small (full size) but pretty comfortable. The Best part of the trip was going to the restaurant, Pirate's Cove every day. Great food and service.
