Vacations are meant to be carefree! Let the chimes from the Naval Academy chapel start your day.

We booked this for taking our child to USNA for I-day. It's literally right across the street from gate 1, which made going on and off the yard super quick and easy. Easy walk to downtown as well. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location, comfortable home.

Our two night stay here was excellent. The location was unbeatable for attending an event at USNA, as well as for dining and exploring the streets of downtown Annapolis. Communication with the owner was great, and he was very accommodating with my special requests. We will stay here again for future events.
