The place is modern yet a little rustic. The location is great. Close enough to Chesapeake City to drive over for a walk and coffee. Within ten minutes the other direction there’s a large grocery store and liquor store. The creek is in the backyard and it’s fun to sit on the dock and watch the birds. There are floats for the pool, but we didn’t have a warm enough day to get in. Really lovely place.

Great stay
Great location right on the water. Great for fishing or just sitting and relaxing. The house is in a quiet secluded area but only 10 minutes from Chesapeake Bay. Pool was an awesome extra. My son enjoyed it. The home was clean and plenty of space.

Family visit
This house has been beautifully renovated inside, it is very comfortable and cozy. It offers large windows on the front and back with views of the river. We had a fire in the real wood burning fireplace one morning when it was chilly outside. We spent Easter Sunday on the large deck enjoying the sunshine. There is a lovely pool, which we did not use. The location is very convenient to Middletown, DE and Elkton, MD; we could get to either location within 20 minutes. A fresh produce market, restaurant, ice cream shop, and park are within 5 minutes. It was quiet and peaceful during our visit. Brian was very responsive and gracious in communication.

Overall, our mini vacation was awesome. Initially, we did have a problem with the heat. However, the host was very responsive!!! The views are so refreshing and natural. The location is close to restaurants and any other outings! Before going, check supplies!
