Fronts the Beach with Fireplace - Poseidon B

Unique & gorgeous beachfront rental. This area was a gathering spot for rowdy commercial sailing captains that moved goods between Norfolk & Baltimore & an alleged meeting spot for Rum Runners in the 1920's. Includes wood floors, sailing inspired sconces, fireplace, and semi-private sauna. Beautiful wood trim & wainscoting created by craftsmen that trimmed ship interiors over a century ago, beach-front windows, large open kitchen, dishwasher, microwave oven, & shared full-size washer/dryer
The space
A Coastal themed , 1,200 square foot 2-bedroom guest rental with custom wood trim crafted by Ship Artisans over 100-years ago. Large open kitchen with walk-in pantry

The cottage is a 2 bedroom rental with sleeper sofa. Each bedroom is equipped with a king bed, a sofa that pulls out into a comfortable sleeper sofa that sleeps 2. Three large screen smart TV's and laundry room. The laundry room and sauna is shared between the Beachfront rental and the Court-yard unit. Professionally decorated with full-size washer/dryer.

Even with a thorough modernization the property is a historical home that is now over 110 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. The bathroom is not as large as what is found in modern structures and there is only a shower. The large laundry room is a shared one with the adjoining rental. Privacy is provided with locking doors.

Also found on the property is extensive outdoor seating areas, well kept grounds, professional landscaping, swings, water fountain, beachfront pergola with hot-tub, bocce ball pit, horse shoe pit, Jenga, beachfront grilling area with shower, sink with running water and more seating. Also provided are good quality beach umbrellas and chairs for guest use

Free kayaks are also provided. Liability waivers are uploaded to our guest and then the guest uploads it back to us. .

Other things to note
We have created a beachfront vacation spot where you can soak in a hot tub that is on the beach while enjoying views of the Chesapeake Bay, sit on the sand with our good quality umbrellas and chairs, play Bocce ball court, pitch horse shoes at the horse shoe pit, build a tall structure with Jenga, and enjoy the many seating areas whether it is on our various decks or next to our water fountain of Poseidon. Catch fish and crabs from our beach and use our beachfront outdoor recreational kitchen to cook them.

The Beachfront cottage is part of a 5-unit beach resort property that we operate
