Relaxing Waterfront Cottage Near St Michaels, Maryland

Interior remodeled/upgraded a few years ago. Bright living area incorporates: living room with two sofas and a recliner, TV with basic cable, VCR player and video collection; dining area which opens onto side deck; and a modern kitchen with silestone counter-tops, single oven, fully stocked with dishes and utensils, including toaster, coffee maker, electric kettle. Two modest sized bedrooms. Master with queen bed and sliding double doors opening directly onto front porch. Ensuite bathroom with shower and jetted soaking tub.

Self-contained for everything you need for a relaxing time away from home, work and the madding crowd!

Enjoy riding our 2 bikes or take a ride just 7 miles into St Michaels along 322 where you can enjoy coffee at the "Blue Heron Coffee Shop" on Talbot St. as good as you can find anywhere or dine at any one of many fine restaurants after you amble through the shops and explore the harbor.

Beautiful view of the bay. House is as described. Pool is clean. It’s an older home and shows its age in places but we had a great time here. Very relaxing.

This is my second time staying here, I love this place. We arrived a little early and met Lacy and she was just the sweetest lady. Only problem we had was that the pool was dirty so we could not use it, but not a big ordeal. We will be back every year, maybe twice. It had everything you need m, peaceful and quiet and all of the neighbors were very friendly. We really enjoyed such a relaxing, cozy place to vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Lacy Janda

Host profile image
I'm Lacy lived in this area all my life, wouldn't trade it for the world. The Eastern Shore is called "God's Country" we do things a little slower here. LOL We love the water and nature. I enjoy being a host to hear how much guests relax and enjoy being here. It's a different way of finding peace and harmony, come visit us and relax.........

Why they chose this property

Our cottage is in a small quiet town that lets you unwind from the busy hussle of the city life. You can ride our bikes, take a kayak to see nature at its best. Watch the beautiful sun rise and sunsets from the front porch or sit on the bench at the end of the dock and watch the world go by. Take a walk around the neighborhood or a dip in the pool. Come for a visit and unwind !

What makes this property unique

Our Cottage is located in a quiet town on a small creek. You can relax here and let nature take you away to a more serene place. We have a private dock if you like to fish, a pool to relax or the A/C to sit and look out the picture windows at the beautiful sunsets. The Eastern Shore is "God's Country" Come on down and sit on the porch and let time fly by !
