Waterfront Paradise on the Eastern Shore of Chesapeake Bay

This breathtaking property, located on 12 acres, is perfect for a vacation rental, weekend getaway, wedding venue, event venue, and so much more. Newly renovated and appointed waterfront home boasts stunning waterfront views and sunsets overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. An open layout includes the living room and flowing kitchen with a sunroom and wrap around porch, extending the living space to an entertainers delight or the ultimate place to unwind. A warming fireplace is the heart of the home, centered in the middle of the house, creating a fabulous gathering area for all to enjoy.

Please refrain from moving the furniture. If you do, kindly return it to its original position. Thank you!

Main floor contains 3 bedrooms, including master suite with sliding door accessing deck with bay view, and 2 bathrooms with walk in showers.

Basement with separate entrance is complete with 3 bedrooms, full kitchen and bathroom, laundry and pool table.
Bayfront patio complete with fire pit for roasting marshmallows/smores and enjoying the sunsets.
Some of our guests favorite past times here are eating locally caught steamed crabs, taking walks along the beach, collecting sea glass, swimming in the bay, relaxing and watching the regattas pass by in front of a captivating sunset.
The town of Rock Hall, known as the “Pearl of the Chesapeake” made the magazines “Southern Livings” Best South Small Towns list. This historic waterman’s town established in 1706 is an exceptional place to experience the bay for crabbing, fishing, hunting, bird watching and boating.
This private waterfront getaway on the Eastern Shore is only 3 miles away from town where you can stroll down Main Street, explore the unique shops, go on a self-guided waterman’s tour, enjoy the live entertainment, check out the Farmers and Artisans Market at Rock Hall Village in the center of town or bike to Eastern Neck Island, and an amazing National Park to where the bald eagles resides.

The house was perfect! We had 7 adults and 4 children. The pool was clean and a hit, the pool house with a half bath was perfect so we didn't track any water going into the house. The house was clean and with 2 full fridges there was plenty of space. And you can't beat the views. Highly recommend!

A truly exceptional VRBO property-book it! Extremely clean and perfect for large gatherings, balancing large group spaces (pool area, huge back screened porch, main living room) with more private spaces for small group conversations (front screened porch, side deck with firepit, pool house porch). We’re already planning our next stay!

Great place to relax with a View

We had an amazing time at this property. The entire family loved the pool, and it was a quick drive into town for coffee and walks downtown. New brewery opened up on Main Street and we loved the seafood at various restaurants. This property had all we needed to eat at home, relax and enjoy the family vacation. Plenty of room to spread out and the sunroom and pool room provided shade when we needed it. We also loved the two fire pits with the one near the water great for smores. We sat in the great Adirondack chair to watch the sunset every night.

Family vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. I gave it 4 stars for cleanliness because there were quite a few dirty dishes and silverware in the cabinets and drawers so we re-washed everything. The gracious owner offered to come over and wash all of the dishes for us. We believe the issue was that the dishwasher wasn't cleaning properly and the cleaning folks put away dirty dishes prior to our visit. The dishwasher was repaired immediately once we told the owner about the issue. Everything else about the house was perfect and very clean! We spent each hot day swimming in the beautiful pool! The owner is extremely responsive to all questions and comments.

Wow, just wow!

We had truly the most amazing stay. The house is set up beautifully for multiple families, so much indoor and outdoor space to spread out and enjoy. The kitchen extremely well stocked, we easily prepared a handful of large meals over the course of our stay and found everything we needed and more. The pool, grounds, and little bay beach had us pretty constantly outside even when the weather was not ideal. So close to Rock Hall and all that there is to enjoy in that idyllic small town. Gunner made everything from booking to checkout as seamless as possible. We hope to be back!

Perfect Reunion!

Gunner's Rock Hall property was perfect for our group of 10 adults and kids from 2 - 12. The property itself was huge and well manicured with amazing views and lots of room for the kids to run and adults to enjoy many gathering areas from the firepit area (where we enjoyed cocktails each evening for sunset) to the lawn for cornhole, to the pool and amazing pool house where we spent an afternoon picking crabs and dipping in the pool. Inside, the house having two level with distinct living areas allowed the older folks to sleep upstairs and the younger families with kids to have the lower level to themselves, which was great. The home is beautifully decorated and clean. The bathrooms and kitchen were standouts! The kitchen was the most well equipped VRBO kitchen I've ever experienced. Thanks Gunner, we will be back!

Amazing family vacation!

This was our second stay and we cannot say enough about this property. It's amazing in every way. The kids love the pool, the grandparents love the comfy chairs and endless views, the parents love the dual kitchens and everyone loves the beach. She may be a tiny spit of sand, but she still provides a ton of sea glass!! Gunner is awesome as well. I give the Lighthouse at Ellendale all the stars!!! We'll be back next year!

My extended family (8 adults and 3 kids under 5) all stayed here over July 4th weekend and had a blast. The pool was exactly what we needed and the pool house outside was perfect, with comfy chairs, a bathroom, and fridge. There was more than enough space for everyone to spread out and relax.

Fantastic property for R&R, responsive host

We are a group of 3 families with young children who had a fantastic stay for a long weekend together! The pool was amazing (and fully fenced for peace of mind), the house was very well appointed with all the kitchen gear and tons of pool toys and lawn games. We had one small hiccup with the HVAC system and the host was extremely prompt with getting someone out to fix it right away. We loved this place!

Great time with Family and Friends

This house was more than we expected, way above our expectations! Perfect getaway for a peaceful (AND fun) family vacation. The house comfortably accommodated our family of 14, including 4 children. The house, pool and view were so beautiful, with amazing sunsets every night. Gunner, the owner, was very welcoming, communicative, and helpful with any questions we had. The place was spotless upon arrival, thanks to Gunner's cleaning team. The house was well stocked with spices, kitchenware (pots, pans, utensils, plates, cups, coffeemaker, etc.). We brought our own groceries and did not have to, nor want to, leave the premises for the days we were there. Even the kids said they wished that we didn’t ever have to leave because it was so nice!
