Historic Beach Side Getaway - Pet Friendly, Wi-Fi, Just Steps to the Beach
Come enjoy our Historic single level Beach Side Cottage. This home is one of the original Ocean View Cottages built in the 1950's. We feature 2 Master Bedrooms with Queen size beds and 3 Twin beds in the 3rd bedroom for the kids. Additional sleepers (little ones) can sleep on the couches if needed.
We have high speed WiFi and a large 75 inch Smart TV for your streaming entertainment.
This Historic property was originally built in 1950. It is one of the few original flat top houses that still survives in this Chesapeake Bay neighborhood. Everything is on one level. We have a large yard that can easily handle parking for multiple vehicles including boat or travel trailers.
We have a beautiful fireplace and warm radiator heat that immediately takes away the chill.
Our full size kitchen is stocked and ready to prepare your meals if dining in. We have two dining tables to accommodate larger groups. We also have two bathrooms with showers, Both recently renovated.
We are located right on a public beach access. No roads to cross, just walk out the door and you have a 90 second walk to our wonderful Chesapeake Bay beach. We are not far from the Ocean View Fishing Pier.
Parking is right outside your door and we also have a combination door lock, so that you can check yourself in and out at your leisure.
We are pet friendly with a small pet fee of $99.
The unit comes with a charcoal grill, which is located under cover in the lattice covered terrace or porch. Our large kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need if you choose to prepare your own meals.
If you have a boat or watercraft, bring it! We have plenty of parking space and are close to a very nice public boat ramp.
Even with a thorough modernization the property is a historical home that is now over 70 years old. It has some eccentricities that reflect building standards and designs from the turn of the last century that lends to its charm as an older beach cottage. Our bathrooms are not as large as modern built, but even so, we hope that you will love our older and charming home.
This is a Family/Residential unit and area. No loud music or noise. Quiet hours begin at 9 PM.
