The Magical Yellow Cottage

Our family of three adored staying in this beautiful, sweet cottage. Charming decorations, amazing location in the Chesapeake basin, and a very well appointed home made our first time to the area a very memorable and relaxing trip. Just what we needed!

Amazing!!

When we walked in it felt so cozy. Love that it has beautiful views of the water. So nice to be out in the country area yet minutes from downtown Annapolis. The 50th high school reunion was awesome! Thank you Rhonda for a wonderful stay 💕Dottie and Jeff

Great stay at the cottage!

This was just a super place- right in the water and beautiful… and surprisingly spacious for a cottage. I loved the kitchen farm sink and the sun coming in the morning off the bay. Will definitely love to stay again. The owner was so nice and thought of all the little details!! Thank you!!

Enjoyable Getaway

My wife and I had a wonderful time staying at the Yellow Cottage. The location is peaceful but still close enough to everything you would want to do. Owner is very friendly and available if needed. Would highly recommend if you are planning a stay in Annapolis. Would easily consider staying again if coming back to the area.

Unique little cottage

The Yellow Cottage was a perfect spot for my daughter and I to spend the weekend near Annapolis. The location was perfect, near the city but also very close to a delightful winery. Everything was provided which means you can pack lightly. We unfortunately did not have the opportunity to hit the water on this trip.

Adorable Cottage! Perfect Visit!

We had a beautiful and restful stay while our daughter attended a summer provram at the Naval Academy. Rhonda was so helpful and kind with lots of good suggestions. Her gardens are amazing and the cottage was comfortable and well stocked. . The only suggestion is to bring beach shoes if you want to swim or kayak-very slippery by dock.

Peaceful getaway

What a magical property! Very cute, with a well-appointed kitchen (and amazing farm sink). Steps from the water, and having direct access to kayaks was so convenient. Only complaint is that the beds and furniture are, unfortunately, uncomfortable. Overall, a great place.
