Waterfront oasis, tranquil masterpiece for relaxing and recreating beautifully
Set on 6 acres overlooking the beautiful Corsica River amidst idyllic farms, your home away from home calls. A 5-bedroom, 6.5-bath waterfront oasis, Middle Fox Cove is the key to unlocking a memorable getaway you will never want to leave behind. This 5000 square foot residence is a tranquil masterpiece that makes room for relaxing and recreating. Outside, the sprawling lawn is ideal to play lawn games (croquet and badminton are provided) or stroll around the gardens. A magnificent heated pool overlooks the river, with comfortable loungers making for a relaxing afternoon. A gated fence surrounds the pool area for additional safety. Inside, windows stretch practically floor to ceiling along the entire waterfront side of the house, with sunset views of the Corsica River and the rolling farmland on its banks. The dining room overlooks both the Corsica and the pool, providing scenic views in all directions (as well as allowing you to keep an eye on little ones in the pool area). Around the corner, the lovely open kitchen serves up a design to meet all your vacation needs. Next to the dining area, a family room with 75 inch TV and a wood-burning fireplace provides a warm and welcoming place to read, watch TV, and gather as a group. A more formal living area with airy vaulted ceilings beckons with a wood-burning stove, and its sliding doors open to a screened in veranda perfect for sunset cocktails. Connected to the family room and kitchen, you’ll find two more areas to enjoy, a game room with air-hockey and a screened-in porch — the ideal space for gathering with family and friends throughout the day and evening. Downstairs, a game room with air-hockey and children’s toys provides a perfect gathering space for the kids…and the adjacent movie room is special place for kids of all ages to have an evening’s entertainment! When it’s time to fall asleep, the first-floor primary suite overlooking the water is designed to help you unwind thanks to its king bed, walk-in closet, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and comfortable reading chairs to enjoy a quiet moment. Another first floor en-suite bedroom has a comfortable queen bed and looks out over the rolling front lawn. The second floor presents two spacious en-suite bedrooms with magnificent water views, one with a king and another with a queen and a daybed. Downstairs, a cozy bunk-room with a water view and a full bathroom provides a comfortable sleeping area for up to eight. Together, the 5 bedrooms create a comfortable set-up tailor-made for groups of all sizes. And then there’s the home’s nautical allure. On the banks of the Corsica River, the ultimate alfresco backdrop is yours to explore — whether you’re looking to take in scenic views, get out on the water (on one of the 5 kayaks or 1 canoe provided) or simply relax on the glider bench on the dock, savoring the serenity rolling in all around you and watching the ducks and turtles paddle by. As evening arrives, gather on Adirondack chairs around the fire pit to roast s’mores and enjoy the star studded sky.
Although the home’s peaceful surroundings will transport you to a place where the outside world doesn’t exist, in reality, the charming towns of the Eastern Shore are mere moments from your doorstep. Just two minutes away by car or ten minutes by bike, the tiny hamlet of Centreville has a farmers market, several restaurants and cafes, and most importantly – an ice cream shop! (It also has a convenient supermarket.) Fifteen minutes away the riverfront Chestertown beckons with its numerous restaurants, art galleries, and farmers market. Easton is thirty minutes in the other direction, with its fine dining and boutiques, and another twenty minutes takes you to the quaint harbor town of St. Michaels with its waterfront restaurants and the Chesapeake Maritime Museum. Be sure to sample the many local restaurants, visit the farmers markets, take a cocktail cruise, or embrace the Maryland tradition of hot steamed crabs washed down by cold beer. Whatever the occasion, Middle Fox Cove is a chance to escape your routine and curate a vacation for everyone to enjoy.

It was a great vacation, the house and grounds were spectacular, the amenities, pool, kayaks, were great, and host couldn’t have been more accommodating or approachable, highly recommend in the future, hope to go back

This is one of the most gorgeous property I have ever been to in MD! The house is exactly how it’s described in the listing and very cozy. The view, pool, and home amenities were amazing. The owner was so kind and helped with anything we needed. Highly recommend this home!

Just the porch was very dirty and the outside was not clean near the waterfront. Rest all was great.

Thank you for the feedback - with the water and trees - looks like the porch got extra dirty- we will make sure to address this in the future.
Hope you come back again to enjoy the view!
Our group of 16 friends and family had a wonderful time. The kids, ages 6 to 11, had their own quarters downstairs with plenty to keep them busy. The pool facilities and kayaks/SUP were a lot of fun on the river. We couldn’t have asked for a better layout for both fun and relaxation. Hope we can come back again!
Our hosts thought of everything for our comfort: very comfortable beds throughout, better than well-equipped kitchen, extra beach towels, extra propane tanks for the grill, large eclectic book collection, complete range of life vests (nice ones, not old dirty ones) neatly hung in the shed. Grandkids, parents and grandparents - we all had a great time.

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review. We’re truly happy to hear that every generation in your group felt comfortable and at home—that’s exactly what we hope for. Knowing the beds, kitchen, beach gear, and little extras made your stay easier (and more fun!) means the world to us. It was a joy to host your family, and we’d love to welcome you all back anytime.
This home is a stunning gem! There are water views from almost every room, and cozy places to sit both inside and out to enjoy the view! All 9 of us had plenty of space to gather, spread out, cook our meals, and eat together. It was the perfect place for our fellowship retreat, and we are grateful we stayed there; would definitely return!!!!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing Middle Fox Cove for your fellowship retreat. We’re so glad the home gave all nine of you the space to gather, spread out, and truly enjoy the water views—those cozy spots are some of our favorites too. It means a lot to know the house supported your time together, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back again whenever you’re ready to return.
Ages 4 months to 87 had a lovely time! We really enjoyed the pool, boats/paddleboards, and fishing off the dock. Everyone had space to spread out across the sprawling house, and the windows and porch overlooking the water made for amazing sunsets. This was just the quiet retreat we all needed to get away from it all!

Thank you so much for choosing to stay at Middle Fox Cove and for taking the time to share such kind words. We’re truly grateful you spent your time with us and hope the cove brought you some rest, joy, and special memories. We’d love to welcome you back again anytime.
We stayed at Middle Fox Cove with 13 people ranging from 2.5 years to 75 years old. The house is huge with plenty of space to spread out. It is a beautiful house with great views all around. It is very well appointed. The pool and the dock were huge hits with everyone. We brought our boat and tied it up to the dock for the week. Had a blast exploring the rivers and Kent Narrows. We would definitely come back and stay again.
