The house was clean and well maintained and had everything that we needed, even an umbrella to protect our daughter from sun when sitting at the water. The covered patio was a plus to spend time in the morning. Really appreciated the water filter and complimentary coffee in the kitchen. ##### Amena S.

We loved this home so much last year that we booked again this year for another peaceful family Thanksgiving getaway. The house is well supplied with everything we needed, and the sun porch facing the water provided seating that allowed us to watch the sunset as we enjoyed each other's company. It's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood off the beaten path, just what we needed to step away from our busy lives to rest. Easy check in and check out, immaculately clean. ##### C H.

Jan 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful retreat We loved our stay here! The views are incredible and the house is wonderfully decorated. The only thing I would note is that the water heater seemed to be on demand, so if people are showering at the same time you will lose hot water. A simple "turn off-turn on" fixed it right up, and it saves water! Our group would love to come back in the summer, I'm sure its lovely. ##### Claire S.

The house was exactly as described, and we really appreciated the toys & books for young children. We enjoyed the dock - we fed the fish with the worms on our hooks! Didn't catch any fish but had fun. The nearby swim area and playground was a 2 minute walk for the kids. We are already talking about coming back! ##### Elizabeth D.

We arrived after a 17 hour travel nightmare from the mountains of Colorado. Had a two year old and four year old in tow who were very cranky from the journey. We needed the house to be just right and it overperformed in every way. The view is amazing, the house is very clean, everything worked and was well organized. We had some family down from Annapolis and everyone was so impressed. Couldn’t have had a better time. Look forward to visiting again in the future. Very cool neighborhood and a gem of a house. ##### Wes L. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe B.

Location was perfect with a nice size backyard and dock for the kids to enjoy. Beautiful sunset view. Beds were comfortable and more then enough room for 2 families with multiple kids each. Property had onsite cornhole, bikes, and other amenities we weren’t expecting. Kids love to take the kayaks out into the cove and fish off the dock. House was super clean. We loved it so much we are thinking of making this an annual trip with our friends and their family. What an amazing Oasis local to the DMV. Who knew such existed. Definitely will be back. ##### Joe B. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jackie C.

Location is 35 min from US Naval academy; perfect to feel like he's really getting off the Yard. Having such a huge yard really offered lots to do (corn hole, frisbee, etc.). The incredible water views drew us all back home every night, along with the gorgeous sunsets. Had really nice weather so we took advantage of the 3 kayaks and paddled around the marina. Bikes were convenient too, as well as small playground 2 houses down. Dock is large, sturdy and fun to fish off of, although we didn't catch anything. House is spacious, clean, roomy and well decorated. Appreciated the info binder which gave great restaurant recommendations. 10 min drive to large grocery store, 5 min to beer & ice store. Neighborhood is family oriented and very quiet. We really felt we were getting away from it all and living the "water life". Thank you! ##### Jackie C.

The house was perfect with the most beautiful sunsets! The windows at the back of the house in the family room and in the Master bedroom allow the sunlight in with expansive views of the water. We did not want to leave! The house is very well equipped with everything that you need to cook a large family meal. The property Manager is awesome and she responded very quickly. I loved this house and would definitely rent it again. Also- for anyone that needs a reference of where the property is located- you are only 25 minutes to Annapolis and less than 20 minutes to Dunkirk in Calvert County .This property is also close to enough to DC and Baltimore if you want to do some sightseeing in addition to relaxing on the water. I would highly recommend planning to spend time here just relaxing and enjoying the beautiful sunsets!! ##### Vicki D. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel W. Aug 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great house and a boaters dream with a wonderful view on top of it all! House is clean and sizeable. Many amenities are included so you don't have to bring much even though we did! :-) Nice bulkheaded lot with good dock and boat lift. There is a community boat ramp 4 doors down and we put our 21' boat and jetskis in there no problem. We brought 4 kayaks to go along with the 3 they have. They also had a couple bikes to enjoy. Quick access to the Chesapeake and fun local dock and dine restaurants and bars. Good tennis courts near by at Shady Side park. Close by boat to Annapolis, the multiple rivers and even up to Sandy Point state park. You will not run out of things to do nearby. As far as the house, we had use of the 1 car garage and enough parking for our 3 cars and trailers. Showers were good with plenty of hot water. Washer and dryer are newer and were put to good use. Yard is fenced in and our dogs had the freedom to move about. The back enclosed porch had nice views and we ate most all meals at the long table. Smart TV's kept me entertained for the 5 minutes before I fell unconscious from the days activities :-) Grill was available for use as well and worked nicely. A fire pit would be a nice addition...we brought our own. as well as patio blocks, 1/2 cord of wood, and chairs but the fun we had at night enjoying the view, listening to music and toasting marshmallows was well worth the effort. It was a great family bonding time. Shady Side is a great spot to vacation. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/592dc5d4-9ac2-4b16-a80d-e2992d64a566-1755295804398.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b7088242-0aca-4c7e-95d4-1ad0fa29235a-1755296112819.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ab05ceb8-787d-442d-b35b-913593926bdb-1755296113092.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6dbb2d17-618e-4aae-9cdf-c32bfb5c967d-1755296113729.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Daniel W.
