Gettin to the point. ( Cove Point Beach)

ElaineRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Decorated perfectly! Has more room than what you expect. When you walk in you feel at home. We usually spend time walking the beach looking for shark teeth but this was a cold and wet weekend so was some limited. We still had an amazing time with family and we will definitely be back.

Cove Point Cottage with Chesapeake Bay views

AmiRating, 5 stars4 months ago

thanks so much for the lovely stay. I thought it was so sweet they reached out to ask if it was okay to do some light decorations for christmas. I appreciate the consideration and loved them. when I arrived at the home one of the smoke detectors was chirping and I offered to replace it if they could tell me where some batteries were. bill came over right away and took care of the chirping detector. I really appreciate that.

Beach Please! River cottage w/private beach & dock

AudreyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

This was our second stay at Beach Please and it was just as delightful as the first! The house was again squeaky clean, thoughtfully decorated and had plenty of room for our multi-generational family to spread out. Grandparents appreciated the first floor master bedroom and kiddos loved the game room, and the crafts and puzzles upstairs. The neighborhood is peaceful and cozy, with beautiful views in every direction. The addition of the acoustic guitar for songs by the firepit was a major plus, as our ten year old is a music lover and almost brought her own. We had a great stay and would recommend this AirBnB to anyone! Grab a week (or two) and don't think twice.

The Glebe

LynnRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Excellent stay at RivahLife! The views were spectacular and the home was exactly as described. Easy to find with lots of stuff for the kids and adults. Looking forward to returning during the warmer months as the fishing, boating, and swimming would be more desirable. Thanks for the high chair and portable crib. Those things really help when traveling with kids.

Private beach retreat in historic St. Mary's City

LeslieRating, 5 stars4 days ago

Spectacular place! Four stars! This place is beautiful! It’s in a peaceful neighborhood with other beautiful homes and on a quiet cul-de-sac. It has impressive, high-end appliances, lots of porches to enjoy the view of the water, a huge kitchen with lots of pots, pans, dishes, etc. The entire house is very large! We loved the big closet of games. We fished everyday off the dock, enjoyed the small beach area, and made a fire most nights. The hot tub was a nice extra too. We listened to Taps being played every night at 7:45 pm from the local navy yard. Everything was very clean and modern. Absolutely beautiful place!!

Cove Point Beach Home 1 &1/2 blocks to Beach

HelenRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We enjoyed our stay at Lorraine's place. The house was very clean and cozy - the furnishings were very high quality. Very pretty decor and well-maintained. The neighborhood is peaceful. Access to the lighthouse is closed until May. The beach area is a quick and easy walk. At sunset, there were many deer in the neighborhood. It's a good location to bring a pup for walks and swimming, although it was too cold for us to swim. It's a good beach area for young children. Our young daughters enjoyed shark tooth and sea glass hunting on the beach. Calvert Cliffs State Park is a short drive from the property.

Bayside Cottage- In the Town with views

LoriRating, 5 stars8 months ago

The house was cozy, accommodating and clean. The beds were very comfortable and linens were clean. It was quiet and the beach was just a short walk/golf cart ride away. If I had to make any slightly negative comment, it would be to provide more wash cloths and towels. But that was a very small detail and we just washed and reused what we had, no big deal. The owner was responsive to all our questions and accommodated a last-minute booking for us. We would definitely book this property with this owner again!

NoraRating, 5 stars1 week ago

What a gem of a place! So cute and cozy. A great location! Loved all the natural light that came in through the big windows. Everything was so clean yet very comfortable. Enjoyed walking the beach. Found sharks teeth and sea glass! Such a great surprise to find such treasures! Lisa was so very kind and accommodating. Appreciated the extras like coffee, bottled water, shampoo etc and she brought some wood for a cozy fire. They really worked hard at making our stay very comfortable. Definitely will be coming back. But plan on a longer stay because there is so much more in the area to check out!

Doug's Paradise

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviews4 months ago

Stayed here to see a few friends who live in the Ebb Tide area. The house was clean, spacious and well equipped. We were only two people but with the sun room it was clear to see there are a few options for people to spread out and not feel on top of each other. This is a nice peaceful area about 15 minutes away from downtown colonial beach and a great location for a getaway. I would stay here away without hesitation.

Michael's place was perfect for our spring break getaway. I really liked the laid back beach vibe and how kid friendly the house was. The kids were able to walk to beach themselves and had a great time on the trampoline! We loved seeing who could find the most shark teeth.

Place nicer than advertised. Although we only stayed 2 nights we definitely had a good time. The private beach was amazing and overall the place was very relaxing. My only complaint would be to make the pet fee as part of the booking process. My own fault that i didn't notice that after booking in the details.

We had a lovely stay at Patrick’s place! It had everything we needed for a long weekend on the shore. A very comfortable home. Patrick was extremely responsive and helpful, with easy check in and check out. The kitchen was particularly lovely and well appointed! The house number is a little small so keep an eye out. And the mosquitos were fierce - don’t forget bug spray! Thanks, Patrick!

This was our first stay in Colonial Beach and we absolutely loved every moment of it. The location is just a few blocks from the beach, numerous restaurants, the coffee shop, and two breweries. There was tons of live music around town each night. Our entire family - even the pup - settled right in. It felt like home. Andrea was amazingly communicative and proactive. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer weekend away!

This is a neat little cottage! Very well furnished! Very quiet neighborhood! It was easy to communicate with Scott! For six people this would be very cramped! It’s a long way from the street to the front door so elderly people with mobility problems will find this difficult!

2 Bedroom Cozy Beach Cottage

This was a great little beach-area cottage we stayed at for a swim meet at St. Mary's College. The house was clean and cozy. My daughter loved the bunk beds! It was a little too chilly to enjoy the porch, but the hammocks looked inviting. Host was wonderful, flexible and communicative. A great find!

Radiant 2 bedroom house close to the beach!

EarlRating, 5 stars3 days ago

This house was amazing. Super clean with lots of amenities. Every detail was thought out to make our stay feel like home. Our kids loved the bunk beds and the UNO and Jenga games. The location was just right, close enough to everything without being right on top of it all. We did not have any issues but when I did reach out to Eboni she responded right away and it was a holiday weekend too. I would definitely recommend this house and looking forward to coming back this summer.

I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house over looking the bay! The views all around the property were absolutely stunning, creating such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. I was on a work trip with several coworkers, and the house was incredibly comfortable and spacious —it truly felt like home. The space was clean, safe, and well-maintained, making it the perfect retreat after long workdays. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed to prepare a large family meal, which was a huge plus. Most importantly, our host was amazing—she was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a serene and welcoming getaway. Thank you, for such a great experience!

JenniferRating, 5 stars5 months ago

Our family traveled from South Carolina for a funeral in LaPlata MD (a short drive away from this home). Jane's property was just what we needed to accommodate our family of 6. The house was clean, comfortable and well equip with everything that was needed. The ping pong table in the garage provided much needed entertainment when we had down time. The views were absolutely beautiful and we can not wait to come back. While there we enjoyed crabs at Captain John's crab house a couple of miles away. I would totally recommend this home to anyone that is traveling for business, leisure or just a peaceful, quiet getaway. Thanks Jane for your hospitality and sharing your beautiful home with us.
