Fabulous property and wonderful place on the St. Mary’s River. We LOVED watching the freighters go by. The house was better than the pictures on VRBO! The decor is perfect for the location. It is very relaxing and quiet. We will definitely be back.

Awesome - no other way to describe it. Probably one of the best equipped, well communicated, and cool rentals we’ve ever stayed in. The house has everything you need and the views, water and yard are unbeatable. We just wish we could have stayed longer! Also the host is outstanding. 10/10 would recommend and also stay again if we’re ever back in the area.
