We enjoyed our three nights in this charming home. It is beautifully decorated and maintained. This home is perfect for commissioning week, football games or a long weekend in Annapolis. The owner was highly responsive and ensured we had a wonderful stay.
Incredible stay. Host was accommodating and friendly. House was clean and fully appointed. And the back yard is like a park. Hope to stay with you again. Thanks Karen.

House was just as advertised. Obviously well maintained and very welcoming to guests. We were in town for the Annapolis Boat Show and the owners were very accommodating. They worked with us with regards to check in times and leaving our cars parked at the house after check out which we really appreciated. We will stay here again if we're back in town.
This was a perfect weekend getaway for our family. We loved how retro it all was decorated, with the conveniences of today. Everything was clean, and beds were comfortable. We even got to enjoy the cute backyard since the weather cooperated! Thank you for sharing your home. We would love to come back one day!

Outstanding!
An absolutely great place to stay. Perfect for families, couples trips or a romantic getaway. Incredibly detailed decor, we felt right at home in this cute house! Fantastic location, easy walk to all Annapolis has to offer. The patio alone is reason to stay here! Host was very thoughtful and we couldn't have asked for more. Highest recommendation for this place!
Immaculate and adorable home! Felt like we walked into a time capsule. Walking distance to USNA , waterfront and restaurants yet very quiet neighborhood.
We were in town for a girls weekend in Annapolis. Our host Karen couldn’t have been more accommodating. The property was clean and gorgeous, we loved the vintage feel. The patio was perfect for morning coffee and evening cocktails. It was close to everywhere we wanted to go. I highly recommend and we will be back!
We were in town for a week visiting my Mid at the Naval Academy and exploring the DC area with two other family members. Home was immaculate and clean. Kitchen was great if you want to cook instead of going out every night. Property is in an ideal location if you want to be slightly outside of busy DTA. Also, close enough to the stadium if you want to walk to a Navy football game. Host was amazing and always available if needed. Would definitely stay again!! 10/10!! Thank you for the great stay!!
I absolutely loved staying here. It's so clean, decorated beautifully, comfortable, and spacious. It's located in a lovely neighborhood. The property is very well-taken care of and I felt like I was home when I was there. It's a very special place. And the owner is wonderful to work with!
The cottage was absolutely immaculate. It felt like my family home when my grandparents lived in Eastport. Well organized and stocked. Perfect location for downtown Annapolis and the stadium!
We had a wonderful stay. Karen’s property is beautifully maintained, and well-stocked with all the comforts of home. Communication was stellar! We’ve already booked our next stay! Thank you Karen!
The home and the owner were perfect in every way. From fresh cut flowers, a very thoughtful gift basket, a personalized message, to a well-stocked coffee bar and fridge, no detail was missed. The owner truly cares about your experience and wants you to feel welcome. This has my family's highest recommendation.
Wonderful! Adorable house, great location and the owner is incredibly gracious.
A true gem in Annapolis. Sweet cottage, close to everything! Fabulous backyard for relaxing and enjoying good conversation in a nice neighborhood. It’s an easy 20 minute walk to great restaurants, shopping, and USNA. Plenty even closer than that. Friendly neighbors too! Owner, Karen, was a true delight, and I highly recommend her and her lovely home!
Charming cottage thoughtfully decorated with vintage furnishings. Very comfortable beds.
Our family stayed in Abigail’s cottage for Plebe Weekend. It was a great location. Very comfortable and furnished with everything one could possibly need and even extras. Extremely clean. Karen is an excellent host.

Perfection in Annapolis
We just had the most amazing Annapolis trip! The house is decorated to inspire cheerfulness and nostalgia for a simpler time. Karen, our host, thought of everything we might need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay and the house was sparkling clean. The back patio is a marvel, and we were able to enjoy sitting outside with a coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening.
Located within a reasonable walking distance to downtown Annapolis, the neighborhood was quiet. If you're not up to the longer walk into town, hop aboard the Annapolis Circulator bus (free of charge) about a block and a half down the street at the Westin Hotel. It also doesn't hurt that you're only a couple of blocks from Miss Shirley's for a breakfast you won't soon forget.
I couldn't reccommend this property and host more highly! Thank you, Karen, for a memorable stay in your lovely home in the beautiful city of Annapolis. We hope to stay again in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Property Owner
I love Annapolis and the characteristics of old vintage homes! I purchased this adorable home from the owner who lived in the home since the 1950's, I renovated the home but wanted to keep it cozy with a vintage flair. Its furnished with treasures of days gone by, vintage furniture from the past, memories of grand parents and aunts and uncles. Its a labor of love, the backyard is super cute , covered in twinkling lights making a romantic backdrop for small gatherings, having friends and family over or just sitting alone enjoying the quiet.
