Home and porch is pretty and cozy. View is awesome. Dock was awesome. Great room controlled air conditioning. Love that we could bring our dog House had everything we needed. Grill was broken. Small leak in kitchen. Hose but no running water on dock. Ladder for climbing into bay should be stabilized. Outlets on one wall of kitchen not working. Everything else was in working order. Jellyfish in bay kept me from swimming. Husband fished off dock. He only caught croakers and rays. He also caught crabs in the cage which we cooked. We brought our dog to small beach a couple miles away. We went into the town of Cambridge, Blackwater National refuge drive through, and Harriet Tubman museum.

A great place for family and pets

We had a great time as a family with 3 teenage boys and 2 pets! We caught 15 good sized crabs and enjoyed them fresh. The hosts were gracious and responsive. Our dogs had a fun time as well. The only thing was not having a dishwasher but it isn’t a big deal. :) Memories were made.

Family Getaway!

Our stay in this charming cottage exceeded our expectations! Equipped with every necessity and a private pier, we reveled in fishing and crabbing. Although rain dominated our visit, we witnessed a breathtaking sunrise on our final day. Our host, Toby, was exceptional and attentive to our needs. We relished every moment of our getaway!

Little slice of paradise

Seamless communication prior, easy checkin, and well supported visit in a truly beautiful area and location. The dock was SPECIAL. You felt alone in the amazing wilderness on the water. The house was well provisioned and Kim and Toby were easy to get in touch with when we had questions or needed something. Highly recommend this beautiful place. Highlights: bringing our boat down, paddle boarding, crabbing from the dock, an amazing meal at the local restaurant, riding bicycles, flying kites, visiting the wilderness refuge and the Harriet Tubman museum. Loved this area.

Great Family Getaway

Both the property and house were very impressive. They had everything we needed, and we did a bit of everything while we were there: swimming, stargazing, camp fires, crab feast, fishing, etc. The owners were quick with communication and didn't mind us bringing our dog at the last minute. Overall, we loved it and didn't want to leave. If the opportunity arrises, we'll definitely go back.

Perfect place to relax

We LOVED Sunrise Farmhouse! It was spotless and with every amenity we needed. The porch was perfect for morning coffee and evening sunsets! We spent hours fishing and playing off the dock. Our hosts were more than attentive and I appreciated their quick responses to our questions. I would absolutely choose this property again.

We had a really nice time at the property. Unfortunately, the keeper crabs were not interested in being caught while we were there. We were able to buy some and cook them. Absolutely delicious! Our dog, Ziggy, had a nice time hanging out with us and chilling out!

Relaxing Vacation

Owners attenuative to texts for any needs. We arrived very late to property d/t I95 bridge being rerouted and it was no big deal with Toby the owner. Its a Quaint clean home with all needed amenities. Great kitchen. My husband and I love to cook. Be aware that main bedrooms are upstairs and bathroom is downstairs r/t toilet use at night/ small children. Property was well manicured with fabulous Chesapeake Bay views. Awesome dock for everything. Owner provided crab traps!!! Bring couple steaks to throw on grill and and pair them with seafood right off the local docks. The "Scotts" at MadHouse Oysters have killer fresh oysters. Friendly close net community. Can not find nicer people than the staff at the general store. 5 star rating across the board for our vacation fishing, crabbing and relaxing at the bay. However if you are looking for nightlife and touristy activities. This is probably not a property for you. Drive to OC. But water activities, fishing, crabbing, bonfires in the firepit, fun family meals together, and exploring the island etc. etc. absolutely.

Perfect spot for a quiet respite

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage. The location is extraordinary. We watched the sunrise every morning from the backyard dock and the sunset from the front porch. We spent the days exploring the island, collecting sea glass, hiking trails and birdwatching in nearby Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, eating crabs and oysters, and visiting historic sites honoring the memory and legacy of hometown heroine Harriet Tubman. Toby and Kim were excellent hosts. The cottage was well appointed, clean and orderly. It made for a wonderful vacation.

Absolute perfection

Could not ask for a better stay. The location was absolutely serene. The home was perfectly comfortable for our needs and was also had everything we could need. We booked this stay for our annual electronics free weekend with the kids (even though the home had great Wi-Fi connection and fully stocked movie options). This was not a negative for us, but just a tip to be sure you bring in everything you would need/want for your stay. There is a general store, but other than that the location is quite remote from the standard suburban amenities. A huge plus for us was being able to go out on the dock at night and star gaze unlike anything we have back home.
