About this property

Our Always Dreaming Cottage - The Bay At Your Back Steps

Welcome to The Aways Dreaming Cottage with two bedrooms which sleeps four (4) – where dreaming is a pastime you will enjoy. There is not another cottage with this Bay access and two level decks, for these multi-walking miles of beach front. Our cottage is a privately-owned Chesapeake Bay front home only steps from the water’s edge. Located just 50 mins from Washington, DC, 14 miles north of the quaint seaport village of Solomons Island and 40 minutes south of Maryland’s capitol of Annapolis, the Always Dreaming Cottage at Kenwood Beach will relax you with quiet walks on the beach, fossil, shark tooth and sea glass collecting and best of all the lull of lapping waves as you enjoy the sunsets on the water’s reflection.
Don’t fight the bridge traffic, come enjoy all the Chesapeake Bay has to offer on the Western Shore!
During your week stay with us enjoy nearby Calvert Marine Museum, Calvert Cliffs, Flag Pond, craft, flea and antique malls, concerts of mainline stars in intimate venues or local wineries and evening music entertainment. Prefer quiet afternoons? Enjoy a book on the back deck, track marine traffic as it steams by or sun bathe on the master suite’s private deck on the second floor of our Always Dreaming beach side cottage.
If you enjoy kayaks and swimming our calm bay waters are inviting you to visit our shores. One of the few Bay coastlines where you can walk for several miles, this section of the Chesapeake Bay Western shore is an uncrowded wonderland. If you enjoy fishing or crabbing, our private community dock is only steps away from our house. Amenities such as restaurants and grocery shopping are nearby for your convenience either north to Prince Frederick or South to Lusby/Solomons Island.
Our Always Dreaming Cottage is a two bedroom, two and a half bath home, with a fully equipped kitchen and gas barbecue grill. The owners are in the neighborhood easily available if a need arises or for suggestions of local activities of interest. We are a water conservative community and household, so showers only and no baths. The home does not have a dishwasher or washer/dryer at this time. There is a local laundromat. Sheets, bath and beach towels can be provided for a small additional charge or you may bring your own. The master suite has a queen-sized bed. The second bedroom has a full-size new bed with a private bath. The house is limited to four adults maximum occupancy. Bring your own water sport toys, sand castle building sets, kayaks, etc. to enjoy your time with us at the Always Dreaming Cottage.
