Great cabin in a perfect setting on Chesapeake Bay! The cabin is well appointed (except for a wonky can opener :-/ ). We SO enjoyed local walks, kayaking, as well as sitting in comfortable Adirondack chairs for hours at the water's edge! Thank you!

2nd Stay & definitely not our last!

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend last year and knew we had to bring our kids back this year. The location is amazing. The quiet and privacy can't be beat. We even took a quick trip into the city to check out the aquarium. The house is adorable and RIGHT on the water. You look out the living room window and feel as if you are on a boat! We enjoyed walking around the marina, checking out the boats, our boys spent hours digging on the beach, and we brought their bikes to ride as we walked up and down the quiet little road.It's the perfect place to go unplug and relax! We will be back.

It was a wonderful trip and it was nice seeing people get married houses down

It was definitely a trip to remember thank God for the AC and heat conditioner it really helped because of the water of course it's cold at night but it's understanding I do wanna say the sheets on the Queen bed and blanket was very itchy when laying down so I didn't sleep as good but my kids was fine so that was good maybe the detergent not sure but that was my only issue the blanket didn't smell as clean as it should so I use my blanket in the car which was good for the nights

Wedding Bliss!

We booked this property, along with the other property at the marina for our wedding weekend and WOW - we LOVED our stay. The views from this cute little cottage are phenomenal. We woke up each morning to watch the sunrise. The hosts were extremely accommodating and even helped secure our cake topper that we accidentally left behind in the whirlwind of check-out. This was the perfect spot for our first look as well. I would highly recommend booking this place for a cute romantic stay!

Rainy weekend stay

Adorable, exceptionally clean waterfront home with loads of privacy. While the location felt more like a boat yard vs a marina, it wasn’t noisy nor did it detract from the peaceful setting.

Renovated Lovely Cabin With Water Views

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! The home was immaculately clean and provided everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The cabin was spacious, well-maintained, and furnished with cozy furniture. And it had lovely views throughout. Convenient private spots. The nautical-themed decor throughout the home was lovely and added a charming, coastal vibe that made our stay even more enjoyable. One of our favorite features was the outdoor patio area. It was perfect for enjoying morning coffee or relaxing with a glass of wine in the evening. The lounge chairs were comfortable, and the atmosphere was peaceful and serene, offering a lovely retreat. The location couldn’t have been better! We were just a short distance from the wedding venue, which made our stay incredibly convenient. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated place to stay.

Fabulous

My husband and I enjoyed our little getaway to the Heron’s Nest. It was just as described. The most important thing to me is cleanliness and it was very clean. The bed and couch were comfortable. We appreciated the coffee pods and creamer. It was very hot…mid 90’s…all weekend but the a/c worked great. Our favorite part was sitting by the water watching the boats and birds go by. It was very relaxing. We drive down to Annapolis for dinner one night. It was only a half a hour away. Great city! We had a terrific meal down by the harbor. Great stay! We would definitely recommend it.

Cute cottage

We stayed here the day before our wedding and our wedding night a year ago as we got married at the venue next door and loved it! This was our 1 yr anniversary. The cottage is so cute and the water views are incredible! Used the pool this time which was great as it was 95 degrees outside. The AC in the unit kept everything nice and cool. Highly recommend!
