A Truly Mesmerizing Property in Chesapeake Bay

We had a group of three families ranging from 4 year old to 40 year old. Everyone had such an amazing time. This property was very well maintained and functional. The host were very responsive. If you are looking for a weekend gateway in the Chesapeake bay, I highly recommend this property. You won’t regret!

Serene waterfront getaway

Beautiful property, right on the water and in the woods, private except the one house next door made for a relaxing getaway! Open living room and deck were very inviting and comfortable; plenty of bedrooms and space. We were surprised to be asked to bring so many disposables from home (toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels, etc) but needn't have worried as the house was well stocked. Note it clearly is a house that allows dogs as there were hairs throughout, in case that's an issue for people especially with allergies.

We had perfect weather so we spent most of our time in the water. Location was ideal. The stairs to the water were unexpected but good exercise. We left 4stars for cleanliness because of a lot of dog hair and leaves. Overall great time!

Great space!

This house is a great size for a family vacation and is very well maintained, both inside and outside. The location provides easy access to small towns and the bay. The owner is very personable, providing dining recommendations, and sharing some nice background about the place as a family vacation home. One comment I will make is that there is video surveillance of the entire yard. This is, of course, the owner's right and it was put into place for good reason. However, we did not know about this ahead of time. The only reason we found out was when we broke a rule (arriving with two dogs instead of one - which I did compensate the owner for) - the owner texted me. She had watched us arrive on her video. For the remainder of our stay, we had no idea when she might be randomly checking on us. A bit disconcerting.

Fun Waterfront Trip Midway For VA and NY Families

Our 2 families with 4 adults and 4 kids ages 3-8 had a great time. The little beach was perfect for sand play, the swing was gleeful, the kayaking was peaceful and the indoor space great for games. Great meeting point for one VA family and one NY family. Have to bring your own sheets and towels, but the kitchen was stocked with great cooking supplies (according to the cook in the group). Nice games and toys for the kids. Great view. Felt like a tree house with air conditioning. The water was shallow and felt very safe for the kids to swim around in. A little mucky / shallow for adult swimming even far from the dock but not too bad. The kids had no problem with the steep steps to the water. Betterton Beach nearby was also lovely. Really great swimming there. And biking around the neighborhood was charming. Definitely mosquitoes and bees and hornets all over which was expected, but the house had benadryl spray, etc in case. No cases for us thankfully. The house owners were lovely and available as needed quite wonderfully. The kids and dads loved their nearby local ice cream excursion while us moms (pals for the last 23 years) took a quiet moment to catch up. 4 day trip success! ...if only there were magic there to help with a 3.5 year old at bedtime.

Lake House Getaway

Overall a beautiful, serene experience. We enjoyed a multitude of activities on the water including kayaking, boating, swimming, and fishing. Cute little beach area with a large dock for fishing. Peaceful with no disturbances from neighbors or other noises. What a wonderful getaway for a large family! Plenty of space for our family of 8(plus an infant.)

Great Place to Stay

The 6 of us loved staying at the Lake house and would definitely stay here again. The location was perfect for us and Loretta & Ty are excellent hosts. They are great at communication, very friendly and helpful. The house is clean, spacious and very welcoming. Starting our day with a cup of coffee on the deck, overlooking the water, boating all day, and coming home and enjoying the firepit was amazing and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Fishing trip.

The house was spacious and clean and the hosts were excellent to work with. Kitchen was stocked with cookware and had everything we needed. The outside area was great for entertaining and the fishing was excellent. We caught many huge catfish and a few bass. The steps down to the water could prove challenging for some people, but my friend Justin is strong and was able to carry our kayaks down with ease. I would recommend this house for a quiet get away, or a fishing trip with da Boyz.

Great peaceful time

We had a great time! The place was perfect and the host gracious. The kids loved fishing from the doc in the morning and evening and taking our paddle boards in the water and swimming during the day. We loved it and want to go back. My only suggestion to people comming is to make bring your own roku/firestick since the smart tv doesn’t have a lot of apps (that I saw). We liked doing a little bit of a movie with kids after dinner at the fire pit and couldn’t get like Disney plus

This home has everything you need for a relaxing stay! Bring your boat, jet ski or kayaks for easy access to Still Pond. The 49 steps to the lake may seem like a lot, but we handled it with ease.
