Oasis by the Bay - Waterfront Heated Pool Hot Tub!
Summary:
Located only 5 miles from Annapolis, this newly updated, 3-story home with great views of the Chesapeake Bay is perfect for your next family getaway! It is located on an inlet of the lower Severn River which connects directly to the Chesapeake Bay.
Relax in the heated pool (open late April - late September) and the hot tub year round! Enjoy three levels of patio and balconies! The lower-level walk-out patio is home to the six-person hot tub, the second-level large deck opens from the living room with lounge chairs and dining for four, and the third-level large balcony opens from the primary bedroom with seating for two. The beautiful in-ground private pool is surrounded by comfortable lounge chairs. The green lawn ends with a cozy firepit area for evening S'mores and storytelling. Take advantage of the poolside built-in grill available for warm-weather barbecues with your loved ones.
The Space:
There are many areas to enjoy family time or sneak away to enjoy a book waterside. An extra-large waterside living room with a fireplace opens out to the large, main floor deck. The living room features large, comfy couches and digital projection TV for a comfy family movie night. A large rec room with a wet bar and seating opens to the waterside patio, where you can find the hot tub and grill, and venture out to the yard. On the lower level, the in-law suite has a cozy and warm sitting room. A great spot to hide with a good book - feel free to read historical novels from the homeowners' private library.
The spacious kitchen is complete with plenty of storage and fully equipped with amenities. You will never say 'there are too many cooks' in this kitchen! Granite countertops all around, ending at a large kitchen bar with stools plus a table and chairs for four. The open dining room with an extra-large table offers enough seating for your full family. Or you might as well dine alfresco on the back deck with a table and chairs seating for four. All in all, this home has stellar interior and exterior entertaining space for your family gatherings.

Even thought the heated pool is advertised as an amenity, there is an additional cost to have the pool heated. The hot tub did not appear to be working properly and instructions were not provided. The home is definitely not child proof. A basket of pool chemicals was left out on the floor. There were pods for the dishwasher in a non-childproof container in a lower cabinet. Cleaning supplies were also in lower cabinets. We were a small group and did not use all of the rooms. I think this house would be more suitable for a larger group of adults and was not really suitable for a family with small children.

Awesome house with all the amenities. Very relaxed atmosphere. Check in was very easy and accommodating. My only concern was the check in time needs to be evaluated for out-of-town guests. Checking in @ 4PM is very late! maybe look at 2PM after a long travel.

Dream location
This house is in a prime location. Sweet neighborhood on the Bay. The house itself has a great dock that provides constant activities for kids. The pool was clean and situated with a stunning view. The house has so many sleeping options and can accommodate large groups. The proximity to downtown Annapolis allows for frequent excursions. Property mgt very good. Highly recommend renting!
