We loved our five-night stay at this enchanting property and recommend it wholeheartedly. The overall area is private, quiet, safe, beautifully landscaped, and a convenient home base for area attractions. The cottage location is all of the above with water proximity--views from indoors (close), from a delightful screened porch (closer), and from a set of inviting Adirondack chairs (closest, just feet from the Tred Avon river). The cottage interior manages to be both compact and spacious, offering generous areas for both togetherness and privacy. We loved the large, well-equipped kitchen. We certainly did not expect the selection of artisan oil and balsamic vinegars, the orange juice and fresh eggs, the box of munchies, or the scrumptious charcuterie board and bottle of wine that had been left for us, but they were all greatly appreciated and contributed to the ambiance of a special getaway. As our days unfolded, we found ourselves continually surprised and delighted at the little touches of thematic interest that were incorporated everywhere in the decor of this home, and how much care and consideration were given to the comfort and convenience of guests. Kudos to the hosts for creating this gem of a place and making it available to those seeking a magical Chesapeake Bay experience. We did not want to leave, and hope to return very soon.
