Right in town, convenient to everything

As listed, very convenient to walk around the town of Rock Hall, close to several great restaurants within a bike ride or a short drive. Loved Fresh Produce right in town, and quant shops. small yard for the pup.

Perfect Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at Oyster Cottage. The cottage is more spacious than it looks and well laid out. We took advantage of the multiple comfortable seating areas on the first floor. The updated kitchen was the best stocked kitchen of any place we have ever stayed. We also enjoyed having our morning coffee sitting outside on the private patio. The location was perfect for exploring Rock Hall and Eastern Neck Wildlife Refuge. We were also very happy to be able to bring along our dog, who also enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic house, lovely small town!

My friend and I wanted to meet up part way between our two cities, and when we decided on the Chesapeake Bay, Rock Hall seemed a good option, and we were right! What a great little town, and the house was just perfect for us. She brought her two little ones (6 and 2), and I was on my own. I think with just 1 bathroom, many more than that would really not be ideal. The whole stay was great, we both agreed we'd love to come back again. The only hiccup (and I am sure it will be fixed), was that the oven didn't work properly (couldn't heat up past being basically a warming tray).

Oyster Cottage

Oyster Cottage is a charming, comfortable place to stay within walking distance to many shops and cafes in town. The cottage is very nicely furnished and was a great place for my family to spend a weekend getaway together. There is ample parking behind the house, and check-in and check-out was an easy process.

Oyster Cottage

We enjoyed our stay at Oyster Cottage! This historic dwelling, in a very walkable area of Rock Hall, is thoughtfully decorated with many artistic touches throughout the property. The upstairs beds and numerous downstairs seating arrangements are all very comfortable. The updated kitchen and ground-floor bathroom are well designed. We enjoyed sitting in a shaded area on the patio during the late afternoon. We had a relaxing visit and Diane is a very responsive property manager. Thanks for sharing your cottage!
