Charming Waterfront Cottage Within Minutes to Historic St. Michaels. Kayaks and Bikes Included!
Comfortably furnished and cute as a button, this cottage is perfectly located for small families or couples visiting St. Michaels who want to be close to the action, yet enjoy the privacy of a waterfront setting. A short bike ride or drive into town will take you to the Bay Hundred Community Pool, golf courses, and all the charms and amenities of historic St. Michaels. The new owners have furnished kayaks, bikes, and even a few crab pots so you can try your hand at crabbing. But if you need a backup plan, the Crab Claw is just a mile away! There's even an outdoor fire pit to enjoy a marshmallow and hot dog roast or to warm up on unexpectedly cool evenings. This is a perfect getaway spot with a screened porch, private dock, and lots of great amenities.

Beyond Unbelievable and Disgusting
I have given Eastern Shore Vacation Rentals 10 days to make this stay right and have heard nothing from anyone above a customer service representative. June 2023 was our first visit to St. Michaels and loved the Crabby Cove. We returned June 2024. This time, we encountered a large snake alive and stuck to sticky traps that worked his way out from under the stove. Based on the number of traps noted, it’s obvious that there was a problem with this rental home. Eastern Shore Vacation Rentals, who manages this property, POORLY handled this situation. Renters Beware.

Eastern Shore Thanksgiving
This house was a very good fit for our family gathering. Well equipped kitchen helped for the T-day meal preps. Weather did not cooperate to allow much use of the wonderful yard. Very private location. Walkable to town but more than a mile each way.

Crabbers Dream
This cute cottage was a perfect fall family get away. We brought our boat and went crabbing and fishing and the kids fished off the dock. The house is fully stocked with all you need. Perfect home away from home. Minutes from town yet far away enough to enjoy the quiet cove and beautiful water views. We definitely will be back! Thanks so much for your hospitality, we love St. Michaels.

Beautiful Waterfront Property
We really enjoyed this property. It had everything we would want and plenty of space. It was very clean and quiet. The water, fire-pit, porch and living spaces were wonderful for a nice long-weekend get-away!

A great family escape
My family retreated to this lovely waterfront home for a long weekend away from the noise and craziness of daily life. The home is lovely with lots of space for us to spread out. The kids loved riding the bikes on the gravel road, kayaking, crab catching and fishing from the dock. (Warning, one neighbor yelled about “light pollution when my 7 & 12-year-old went fishing at 8pm with a dock light on.) We enjoyed a bonfire each night we were there that lead to more family memories. The town itself could not be any cuter! Lots of shopping and fantastic restaurants.
