Granson's 1st birthday party

My husband and I and two adult daughters rented this property for 4 nights. Our son lives in Annapolis and we all came to celebrate our grandson's 1st birthday. The house was a great size and very clean. Easy to get to and conveniently located.

Cottage that lives large

It was great. The host met us when we arrived. Very friendly. The whole family was welcoming. The courage was very clean and had all that we needed. There was a great set of play equipment for our granddaughter and our hosts had as granddaughter The same age. The two of them got along great. This was one of the best VRBO experiences yet.

Lovely Weekend Stay

Such a lovely and peaceful home! There are three bedrooms upstairs with a hallway bathroom and the 2nd bathroom is on the ground floor with the kitchen and family area. The house is very kid friendly. I'm disgusted by all things "kids" so we hid most of what was left out. It was a thoughtful gesture for those who partake though. There is also a lovely front yard play area where we were able to relax outside on chairs once we arrived. The beds and couch were all super comfortable. We were there during a storm (Ophelia) but the house kept us safe and dry and the surrounding area was peaceful. I was worried a bit about trees falling on the house or our car since the neighborhood is so wooded, but there were no issues. We had a lovely weekend and enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Wonderful Stay

Julie was a wonderful host & the property was just as described. The rooms were well appointed & the beds very comfortable. The entire house was neat & clean. The kitchen had all the cookware you could hope for, as well as a coffee maker with an assortment of coffee to choose from. The large sofa was perfect for the entire family to hang out together watching tv. The neighborhood was safe & access to the private beach was just a short walk. Communication was excellent & I would recommend this property for your stay in the Annapolis area. It's also conveniently located to the Navel Academy.

Julie was friendly and helpful. She offered my family and I games to play gave us access to the basketball court and the backyard including the grill. We had ample parking and felt safe.
