Thanksgiving week at Woodland Retreat
We really enjoyed our stay at Woodland Retreat. Even in November we were able to enjoy the beautiful backyard. We cooked dinner on the grill and had s’mores while enjoying the fire pit. Really appreciated the cleanliness of the whole house and the comfortable beds. The woodland setting is private but convenient to shopping,etc. Hosts are very kind and quick to respond to any questions.

Naval Academy Graduation
Our family was in the area for the Naval Academy graduation so the weekend was somewhat a reunion as well.
Many positives: Location, small touches like bottle of wine and two Navy mugs as gifts, cleanliness and proximity to the grocery.
The only negative was that the two bedrooms on the upper floor never got cool. A portable air conditioner or window unit would be helpful. We weren’t even there in the heat of the summer. Being more specific in the description on VRBO.
Thank you for the use of this lovely home in a lovely setting!

Great Home on Eastern Shore
Shelley & Lou were awesome hosts! Everything was immaculate and welcoming. It was like staying at a friends home. Close to restaurants and shopping, and peaceful at the same time. Had two places for entertaining and a big outdoor space to entertain as well. We will be back next year!
