Maryland Vacation Rental w/ Private Pool & Dock

9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (13)
"My daughter and I enjoyed the place, especially the pool. She really loved the bunk-beds too. I asked for an early check in and that was granted which gave my daughter and I more time to explore the area and Calvert Cliffs. It did rain the entire time which dampened the exploring, and it was low 70s in August for swimming, but we made the most of it and had enjoyable memories."
