Renovated Chesapeake Bay Waterfront Pool, Dock & Boat Lift
WATERFRONT LUXURY ON THE CHESAPEAKE BAY — Available August 29, 2026
Wake up to panoramic Chesapeake Bay views from this fully renovated, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath waterfront estate on Kent Island. Situated on 1.09 private acres with a resort-style pool, private dock, and 15,000 lb. boat lift, 208 Lighthouse View Drive is one of the most distinctive rental properties on Maryland's Eastern Shore.
THE OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE The backyard is the centerpiece of this home. A stunning infinity-edge pool (installed 2014) is surrounded by light-colored paver decking and faces the open water — you will watch cruise ships and container vessels pass from your own pool deck. The private wooden dock extends directly into the Chesapeake Bay and is equipped with a 15,000 lb. boat lift, ideal for powerboats and sailboats alike. Three white Adirondack chairs and a covered patio create the perfect setting for morning coffee or sunset entertaining. The 1.09-acre lot is meticulously landscaped with river rock borders, mature trees, and a manicured lawn that rolls directly to the water's edge.
THE INTERIOR The 3,562-square-foot open-concept floor plan was designed to bring the water inside. Large A-frame windows and sliding glass doors in the living area frame unobstructed bay views and fill the home with natural light throughout the day. Dark hardwood floors, a tray ceiling dining room with a modern chandelier, and a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and glass-front cabinetry make this home as functional as it is beautiful.
The primary suite features a fully renovated bathroom (2016) with marble-look subway tile, a glass shower enclosure with a pebble-stone floor, and brushed nickel fixtures. Three additional bedrooms are well-appointed and comfortably furnished. The attached two-car garage provides secure parking and additional storage.
THE LOCATION 208 Lighthouse View Drive is located in Stevensville on Kent Island — Maryland's gateway to the Eastern Shore. Annapolis is 15 miles west via U.S. Route 50. Washington, D.C. is 45 miles via the Bay Bridge corridor. Fort Meade and NSA are 35 miles. The Naval Academy is 12 miles.
Local amenities include the 6-mile paved Cross Island Trail (steps from the property), Matapeake State Park, waterfront dining at the Pour House Pub and Fisherman's Inn, and multiple full-service marinas. Kent Island is a genuine community — not a resort town — with year-round residents and a strong local identity.
SCHOOLS Zoned for Queen Anne's County Public Schools, rated A-minus overall by Niche (2026). Kent Island High School holds an A-minus rating with a 16:1 student-teacher ratio and a dual-enrollment partnership with Chesapeake College. Matapeake Middle School is ranked #40 in Maryland. Bayside Elementary is ranked #159 statewide.

About the host
Hosted by Aimee Merkle
Here’s a host bio draft for you:
We’re Aimee and Tom, and we’re so glad you found us! We’re locals rooted right here in Davidsonville, Maryland — a quiet, beautiful corner of the Chesapeake Bay region that we love calling home.
When we’re not working — Tom runs a licensed general contracting business and I stay busy with projects of my own — you’ll find us cheering on our daughter at competitive volleyball tournaments up and down the East Coast, walking our two toy poodles, Salty and Ocean, or gathering with our church community in Annapolis. Faith, family, and good neighbors are at the heart of how we live.
We know what it means to be a guest somewhere and feel genuinely welcomed. Our goal is simple: we want you to feel at home, comfortable, and cared for from the moment you arrive. If there’s anything we can do to make your stay better, just ask — we’re happy to help.
Welcome to our little piece of Maryland. We’re glad you’re here.
Why they chose this property
Step outside and breathe in the Chesapeake Bay. Lighthouse View Drive is one of those rare streets that feels like a world unto itself — quiet, picturesque, and just minutes from the Bay Bridge, yet completely worlds away from the hustle of everyday life. 
The views here are nothing short of spectacular — a trifecta of the Thomas Point Lighthouse, the twinkling lights of the Annapolis skyline, and the iconic Bay Bridge stretching across the horizon.  Whether you catch it at sunrise or linger through sunset, the scenery on this street simply never gets old.
Stevensville sits on Kent Island, where the beauty of nature and the warmth of community genuinely converge.  Neighbors wave. Herons glide past at low tide. Boats drift lazily toward Annapolis or down toward St. Michael’s. It is the kind of place where you slow down without even trying.
What we love most is how close everything feels — a quick 15-mile cruise by boat to St. Michael’s or the Annapolis harbor  — while still feeling tucked away and peaceful. Panoramic sunsets, the glow of the Annapolis skyline reflected on the water, and the gentle rhythm of Bay life  make this neighborhood unlike anywhere else in Maryland.
We think you’ll fall in love with it just like we did.
What makes this property unique
Here’s your “What makes your property unique” section:
208 Lighthouse View Drive is not just a place to stay — it is a place to exhale.
This single-family waterfront home on Kent Island sits in one of the most quietly stunning settings the Chesapeake Bay has to offer. From the moment you arrive, the views take over — the Bay Bridge, the Thomas Point Lighthouse, and the ever-changing water stretching out before you create a backdrop that is genuinely hard to leave.
What sets this property apart is the complete waterfront experience it offers in one place. Spend the morning out on the private dock watching the Bay come alive, afternoons floating in the pool or unwinding in the hot tub, and evenings gathered on the outdoor entertaining space as the sun melts into the horizon and the Annapolis skyline begins to glow across the water.
There are no crowds here. No noise. Just the sound of the water, the warmth of a well-appointed home, and the kind of stillness that reminds you why you needed a getaway in the first place.
Whether you are coming to rest, reconnect, or simply breathe, this home gives you the space and the setting to do exactly that.
