About this property
White Point Cottage - Quiet Waterfront Getaway
Welcome to White Point Cottage on the beautiful Potomac — 90 minutes from Washington, DC, but a world away. The renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage sits on nearly an acre of south-facing waterfront property, affording a sense of privacy along with sunrise and sunset views. We’ve owned in the same neighborhood in St. Mary's County since 2005 and are eager to show guests why we love it here. More on IG @whitepointcottage, and be sure to visit our sister property, Water's Edge Cottage.

About the host
Hosted by Victor D.
We have lived in the Washington DC area most of our adult lives.
We stumbled across St. Mary's County in 2005 as we were looking for waterfront property (our must haves: within 2 hours of DC and no Bay Bridge traffic) and are so glad we did. We think the area is a hidden gem -- incredible waterfront, beautiful farmland, and a quaint town nearby, Leonardtown, which has one of the few remaining town squares from Maryland's provincial period.

Why they chose this property
Our cottage is surrounded by farms and water; our street contains roughly 15 to 20 small homes, many of which (ours included!) were built as fishing cabins in the 1930s and 1940s. The neighborhood is quiet; neighbors are friendly.
What makes this property unique
The cottage's unobstructed Potomac views make it special. Importantly, the cottage faces south towards one of the few large west-to-east flowing stretches of water along the east coast -- which means we enjoy waterfront sunrises and sunsets (and we've been to a lot of places, and firmly believe our sunsets are among the best). If you are like us and find the looking out onto the water peaceful and relaxing, you'll love White Point Cottage.
