Perfect spot for families with young kids

We had a wonderful stay here. The house has a really functional kitchen so we were able to cook a lot of meals here. The pool was perfect for young swimmers (decent sized shallow end) and we loved hanging out on the dock, crabbing and kayaking. With plenty of adult bikes, we took a trip each morning to the playground too. We hope to be back!

Best Eastern Shore Experience

We absolutely loved our time here. It was spacious, quiet, and beautiful. Waking up and seeing bald eagles was an extra special bonus. Matt was wonderful to work with. The house and setting fit our family well.

Fabulous Family Fun

Our family of 11 had a fabulous week at your home. The house was clean, decorated beautifully and very well supplied. Adults and children spent hours in the pool and fishing on the dock. The best art of our stay was enjoying the spectacular view of the river from most areas. Thank you for a wonderfully memorable week in your home.

Perfect Choice

The house was perfect for our party and lent itself to everyone’s interests. The Sunrise and Sunset views were stunning, the best I have seen in the St Michael’s area over a decade of exploring! We arrived in mid-November with foliage ablaze, wildlife every where and a laid back relaxing atmosphere. Matt and Gerry are right in place to guide you through getting to know a new house! Look forward to going back or testing one of their other properties!

All-around perfect in Neavitt

All of us to the person enjoyed our time at this property. We had 3 teens, a 20-something, and mom & dad. We have never stayed at a property that had so much to offer, especially for the kiddos. They kayaked, paddle-boarded, used the sauna, played pool & ping-pong, and biked. There wasn’t a need to be on their phones or social media unless they were posting pics of the fun they were having. The home is spacious enough to give everyone their own space and it was beautifully appointed. We WILL return!

Wonderful Home

My family and I enjoyed a wonderful week here. Everything was just like the web pictures. The setting is spectacular, the house exceptionally clean, the pool area perfect for relaxing. There are about 5 or 6 Kayaks / Paddle Boards in the Crab Shack, and 7 or 8 bikes and helmets in the detached garage. The ping pong table was a huge hit as was the Corn Hole. Many hours were spent relaxing in the hanging chairs under the wisteria. The wine cooler in the pool house, another one in the mudroom by the ice machine, plus a third one in the breakfast nook in addition to the big ones in the kitchen and garage provided all the convenient food and beverage storage you could ask for. The entire family really enjoyed the week. I highly recommend this beautifully furnished, outstanding home.

Beware of Flies

The house was clean and the property was well maintained. There were many amenities that the family enjoyed. However, there was no warning about the flies that stayed with us on property - inside and outside of the house. After 2 full days of trying to kill flies inside the house and being unable to sit outside, we contacted the property guest manager for assistance. When the problem was explained, her response was welcome to the eastern shore of Maryland - the further south you go, the worse the flies are. She offered to go to Lowes and pick up some insect repellent - which she did and delivered the products to us. I wish we would have seen a review addressing the flies at this property while I was going through the booking process. One other issue we had a problem with throughout our stay was tripping on the step-ups/downs in the kitchen - different heights of flooring. Although beautiful, quiet, and peaceful, it is a 20-minute drive to any restaurant, grocery store, etc. Also, as advertised the property had only one tv, but there was no cable for it.

The house needed to be updated especially the kitchen, bathrooms and floor. only one TV in the room off of the kitchen area and you could not watch movies without commercials interfering the movies. No power room. If you had to use a bathroom you had to go into one of the bedroom bathrooms. The outside of the house was amazing. The view was spectacular. The pool area was delightful. One of the best pool we have ever experience. All in all our family had an enjoyable vacation.

Wonderful stay

Great property. The house has been beautifully remodeled and the outdoor space is fantastic with a number of areas to kick back. The owners were also incredibly hospitable, checking in to ensure we were having a good time and even leaving fresh caught crab in a trap for us. Great property and great stay.
