This home is in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood with a view of the Bay (at somewhat of a distance). There is a nice big back yard giving the property plenty of privacy. The host is very responsive!
Booked this for Fatherâs Day weekend with my two kids. I think we were hoping for a kind of âdip your toes inâ Chesapeake escape â something between Lake Anna and Ocean City. Saw âwaterviewâ and figured maybe weâd land somewhere special. That wasnât quite what we got.
The house itself is clean and quiet. No issues with check-in. The upstairs deck is the one defining feature â nice for sitting out at night. But beyond that, this felt more like a peaceful neighborhood retreat than a Bay experience. Youâre near the water, sure â but thereâs no beach, no boardwalk, and no direct access unless you go looking.
We eventually found one small patch of sand down the road â clearly managed by the HOA â that seemed to be the unofficial community access point. Just a tiny patch of sand and the open bay.
There were other small misses. The listing mentioned complimentary wine â but it was mysteriously not place there ahead of our visit. Host apologized but never made good. Additionally, was hoping for a guidebook with a list of local tips, something to help you unlock the Chesapeake; didnât get even a suggestion of where to eat or fish. Meanwhile, the host could be described as over communicative â constant Vrbo pings morning and evening with reminders about check out, etc. Appreciated the overstated âwelcomeâ and enthusiasm but really killed the vibe at times.
Still, we made the most of it. Got crab up the road and used the fire pit for smores. Overall good weekend.
Perfect for our weekend stay. Checkin was easy and communication with the owner was great! Definitely would stay again. Kentmoor restaurant was awesome. Filled with locals who were friendly and welcoming! Food was great!
I had a fantastic stay in Stevensville! The house was cozy, clean, and exactly as described. It had all the essentials for a comfortable visit, and the location was perfect for a peaceful getaway. The host was attentive, friendly, and made sure I had everything I needed to feel at home. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches around the house that made it feel welcoming. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay, and I would definitely return in the future!
We had a great weekend on Kent Island. We loved the area. It was so family friendly. We had lots of young children in our group, and this house worked great for us. The inside was nice with modern, but minimal decor, which was perfect for toddlers. The fenced in backyard was also just what we needed to let them run around.
The host Adam stayed in constant communication with me and answered all of my questions in a timely manner.
The house was beautiful, spacious. My children ages 3&7 loved it! And playing in the insanely huge back yard! I would recommend this home and host to anyone looking to stay on the anywhere near Kent Island.
Pleasant stay in a lovely, spacious home, but "water view" (barely)
We'd stay there again but with modified expectations based on our experience. The 'water view' is quite distant and obtuse. The water is hundreds of yards away, and separated from the house by several suburban style homes and an unpaved road.
I had a group of 9 stay here and we all slept very comfortably, cooked all our meals and spent most of our time on the back porch, or inside watching movies. Adam was great and super helpful and the place was very nice and comfortable.
My children and grandchildren loved staying together in one house. We were able to play outdoors and there was space to socialize and play indoors. We were a group of 11 and I felt it was a bit small for all of us. Great location for what we were looking for.
We have nothing but great things to say about Adam and his beautiful home! He was so accommodating and the home was comfortable and spacious for our family of 5! Couldnât have had a better experience :)
The house is exactly as pictured- plenty of space and clean. Perfect for our stay with a group of friends, close enough to everywhere you would want to get to in Kent Island.
Perfect for our âsisters getaway.â Quiet neighborhood right by the bay. Just a short drive to nature trails as well as shopping and restaurants. Owner is very responsive! We would stay here again for sure.
