Cozy home with fenced in yard-Pet Friendly . 2 block walk to historic downtown!

My husband and I stumbled upon this cozy home at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay in historic Havre de Grace. Only a few miles to I-95 for easy access to Philadelphia, Baltimore,Washington D.C. or New York City. A two story home with the bedroom and dressing room on the second floor. On the main floor as you walk in, there is a large porch with a combo lock box for easy entrance. A small couch/bedroom to the side has a window air conditioner. The main room has a baby grand piano which you are welcome to play. We have internet and wifi with a TV and an electric fireplace for chilly nights . The dining area and kitchen have microwave, coffee maker and dishwasher. There is a door leading to the large fenced in back yard with a large pet door. We welcome pets, there is a $200 Non- refundable pet fee( with references). Yes, the cats and dogs in the photos are real to let you know if you have allergies, this is not the place for you. Our pets are with us at our other home. The bath area is a newer shower with seat and a washing machine is available for use. Clothes can be air dried either on the line outside or the drying rack upstairs. There is a cot available for one extra guest. The upstairs bedroom has a window AC unit and a King size mattress. The closet and all dressers, nightstand drawers available to the guests in both bedroom.
Every weekend there seems to be a music, art or cultural festival. But, I have another home and are not able to take advantage of all the great events and happenings. Walk to restaurants, theater, the Opera House, Library, Post Office, Museums and the beautiful water. Go sailing, Kayaking, Paint, Hike the Lafayette Trail or enjoy Bombay's treats. Hollywood Casino and The Great Wolf Lodge is only a few miles away. Please note that the police department is only 1 1/2 blocks away and there are 5 fire departments in this town. Great for safety concerns, but sometimes the siren will go off.
This vacation home's walkable location gets good marks from our customers. During your stay, you're just a quick walk from Susquehanna Museum at the Lock House. A water park is available. The vacation home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

Just a bit more improvement
Porch is filled with cobwebs. Steps inside need a lot of improvement. Inside was very clean, if dated. However I was pleased with the updated shower, refrigerator, kitchen. No tv made the down time lonely. Netflix did not work, nor did dvd player. For me I needed a much more closer bathroom on the second floor. Getting up 3 times a night to use bathroom & navigating those poorly constructed stairs was scary. I did not want to stay in the single bed right by front door. SUZANNE was very accommodating personally, as far as consoling me when I couldnt get the Master Key to work, and then on top of that I lost the hidden key. Just wasnt my day. One other thing, again not her problem, the outdoor dogs living next store were frequently barking. One was very aggressive and scared me back inside the house. I guess that's the neighbors' fault, but it affected my stay. It was a bit further walking to the river area. Coffee was great, milk was provided, sweetner, cups, microwave. Clean inside. Very cozy older house. I now know to ask more questions, but I would recommend this vrbo as long as the next renters asked a but more questions than I did. The next renters may not have the same concerns. as Milk, ciffee, needed to

Cozy home close to the waterfront
Super cute house in a quiet neighborhood(unless the fire department has a call. It is right around the block.) Really enjoyed our stay. Just be warned, the stairs to the upstairs are not for someone older. They are a bit steep and narrow.

A weekend in Havre de Grace
Visiting for a workshop. The accommodations were very nice. Our host made every effort to make sure we had what we needed, even welcoming us with a box of wine in the fridge. The house is just a few minutes walk from shops and restaurants but still on a quiet street. We were able to park right in front of the house.

Successful Sabbatical!
This cozy home was perfect for me and my dog for an extended stay! We loved walking in HdG every day and went on several hikes throughout the area. The kitchen was well-appointed and I found everything I needed and then some! Suzanne left a bottle of wine for me, and she was responsive and made herself available for any issues/questions. I loved my time here and look forward to visiting again. Thank you for sharing your home with me!

Traveling with my dogs for an event in the nearby area. The fenced yard was great and very enjoyed. The home is quaint, clean & comfortable. Suzanne has information nicely organized & was easy to communicate with. The location is close to a lot of great restaurants & things to see. Thank you for a pleasant trip experience. Wish I'd had piano lessons to be able to play the beautiful grand piano.

Suzanne’s home was very cozy and the location was perfect. It was quiet, but walking distance from everything we needed. The kitchen was well-stocked and everything felt very homey. Suzanne was very sweet and communicative, checking in with us to make sure we were enjoying our trip. She was also very flexible with check-in and check-out, which was much appreciated!

Suzanne is an amazing hostess! The house is definitely cozy and homey - not your place if you're looking for posh or minimalistic - we loved it. Easy walk to downtown with lots of shops and restaurants as well as the Promenade along the waterfront and three little parks. The kitchen has everything you could need and linens were plentiful. Would definitely stay again.
