About this property
Not a House Boat - But a BoatHouse - Water Front, Pet Friendly, Kayaks and Wi-Fi
The Boat House is built right on the deck overlooking the beautiful waters of the Chesapeake Bay. And we do mean right on the water.
The deck is directly on the water/beach for you to enjoy the spectacular views and sunsets! You are welcome to fish, access the water or simply enjoy the view from this expansive deck.
We also have a large fenced in backyard for your little ones to run and play. Parking is off-street in our driveway. We have 4 seperate units on this property and the deck and backyard, which is enclosed and perfect for your little ones to run and play, can be shared with other guests.
Our single bedroom features two beds - a Queen Size bed and a Twin Size bed. This unit is perfect for a couple and even a small family of 3. We will allow a bit of "piling in" if you have younger children, but any additional bedding or sleeping arrangements will be up to you.
Our kitchen, or kitchenette rather, is small and not designed for cooking meals. We do not have a stove, but do offer a microwave and small counter top toaster oven. This is not the place to cook meals but more of a place to reheat them.
Our bathroom features a stand up shower, toilet and sink. Not big enough for a bathtub.
We have a combination lock on the door which will allow for easy check ins/outs on your own.
