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.

Beautiful, Quiet, Clean

We loved our stay at the cottage, and our visit to the Annapolis area where my father and I grew up. It was the last piece of the puzzle for my father, as he passed just 9 days after returning home. I am so glad I got him down there one last time. If Pat would text me at 1-709-689-3352, I would appreciate it, since I lost her cell number. My father will never go back, but I certainly will, maybe sooner than later.

Perfect Getaway

We had a perfect getaway at this property. Clean and welcoming as described. We used this as our base and traveled to Annapolis one day and St Michaels another day. Only regret is that we did not take more time to relax and enjoy the scenic quiet porch . Definitely would recommend this property to friends and family.

Galesville Cottage

This place was great for my husband and I to celebrate our anniversary. The cottage had everything we needed. It was so peaceful and a wonderful location to explore. After returning from kayaking, visiting breweries and wineries, as well as the Upper Amish market in Marlboro, we spent the remainder of the day playing corn hole in the yard. It is an easy walk to the lovely waterside restaurants. Pam the owner was quick to answer any questions we had even though we didn't have to ask many as the information from her listing and in the cottage was sufficient. We would love to make this trip again. Thank you - Kathy and Eugene

Wonderful weekend away!

The house was perfect for my husband and me to get away for the weekend. We enjoyed views of the water, paddleboarding from the pier in town, biking and walking. We also loved Stan and Joe's and Pirate's Cove. The house was comfy and offered everything we needed for the weekend. Pam was a fabulous host and very helpful with my millions of questions. Thank you so much!!!
