18-Acre Waterfront Sanctuary: Peace & Privacy

Welcome to your waterfront retreat in Southern Maryland, where over 18 acres of natural beauty and tranquility await. Nestled on a quiet resident creek off the Chesapeake Bay, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy and access to nature's wonders.

Just a stone's throw from St. Mary's College, our fully renovated cottage provides a light, modern, and cozy atmosphere. The open concept design is complemented by unique touches in each of the three bedrooms, making every space inviting. On the main floor, find a versatile bedroom with a queen bed and full-size trundle, complete with direct bathroom access. Upstairs, two more bedrooms offer lush tree views and queen or king-size comfort, alongside a shared bathroom. Blackout curtains in each room allow for restful sleep-ins or bright mornings.

Adventure is at your doorstep with a pier for morning reflections, plus pedal boats, kayaks, and paddleboards for exploring the creek and beyond. Discover the private pond, enjoy the under-construction firepit, or indulge in homecooked goodness from our chef's kitchen.

For those who mix work with pleasure, high-speed Starlink WiFi ensures connectivity and a Tesla charger adds convenience to eco-friendly travel.

Experience this peaceful oasis throughout the year, perfect for holidays, family reunions, and special events. Embrace each season's charm in this idyllic setting, where every visit is a celebration of nature and comfort.

Fantastic getaway spot

The house had everything we needed and was super clean. The house was bright and airy and very comfortable. The land was beautiful and right on the water. It'll be our first choice the next time we are in the area.

Wonderful stay!

The house is perfect! We were there for a swim meet and I'm so glad I booked it! The house is bigger than we expected, new, comfortable and clean. The kids had fun fishing from the dock. Communication was great, check in was super easy. We'll be back!

Nicely recently renovated home, secluded with creek access - what more could you want?

This was a fantastic place to stay for a weekend getaway. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. With the dock, creek, kayaks, and canoes the kids enjoyed going out on the water, fishing, and crabbing. It was a great few days and we wish we could have stayed a bit longer.
