Our Little Piece of Heaven
Beautiful oasis with walkout to enjoy private seating on the water. Minutes away from Solomons Island marina, restaurants, bars, and shops. Michele and Tom were kind and proactive throughout our stay.

Heron's Rest
So very peaceful. Loved watching the birds fly off an on to the neighboring pier. Fit our needs perfectly and with the well stocked kitchen we were able to prepare our Thanksgiving meal.

Garage Studio Apartment
This place is adorable! And it's right on the water! The space is well appointed and well designed with high-end touches. The bed was comfy, too. I'd highly recommend this apartment for couples who are looking for a quiet getaway.

Escape to Pax River!
Holly’s place was perfect for my long term stay. She was an excellent host, very responsive and thought of the small details. Location is superb! Great restaurants nearby and beautiful water view.

Blue Heron on Little Kingston Creek
Dave and Karen are wonderful. Everything about our stay was excellent. I would highly recommend this to everyone.

Stunning Sunsets on Breton Bay, Seaside apartment
What a calm and peaceful private retreat! My fiancée and I spent a couple of days enjoying the brisk bay breezes and beautiful sunsets at Vickie’s. Everything was exactly as advertised and Vickie (and Scott) are true treasures—extremely responsive and thoughtful hosts who want you to have everything you need. Plus, their knowledge of the area gave us a great introduction to Leonardtown. So much more to the area than we thought! Whether birdwatching from “the best view on the block” or reflecting on the glider by the bay, we loved every moment of quiet and can’t wait to visit again. Thank you!

Serenity Suite on Chesapeake Bay
This is a beautiful spot! The sunrise over the bay was stunning. Lori is a fantastic host and even helped us unload our luggage. She has everything you need for away from home - the bathrooms have shampoo and body wash - water in the fridge - and some snacks!

Sandy Feet Retreat - Beachfront
Sandy Feet Retreat in Colonial Beach was a great place to take my daughter and the grandkids for a 3 day Spring Break holiday. The condo was beautifully furnished and very well located on the boardwalk. My family loved having access to the beach right outside the condo and spent many hours collecting shells and sea glass. Fishing from the pier was a thrill for my grandson. I enjoyed peaceful mornings on the balcony and evening time there listening to the waves each day. Thank you Brittany for everything you do to assure a lovely stay for your guests.

Sunrise Waterfront Potomac Beach Haus
Heather was an amazing host, and the home was absolutely beautiful. Waking up to the waterfront views and the peaceful early morning walks are only some of the reasons why I would stay again. If you are looking for a peaceful getaway, look no further.

Waterfront. Spacious. HotTub. Kayaks. DogFriendly.
Jess is an incredible host who was always responsive, friendly, and periodically even checked in to ensure we didn’t need anything and shared the tide levels with us throughout our stay. The house is gorgeous! And so much fun. We never even left the house our entire stay because we were enjoying the amenities so much. The beds are so comfortable. The hot tub was warm and ready to go upon our arrival. Jess was so nice to allow additional guests to come to our Easter dinner which was not a part of our original plans, a dinner that then turned into a ping-pong tournament which was such a good time. Just waking up to the sound of the birds in the morning was such a wonderful treat. My own guests that I invited to come stay with me were so delighted and impressed with the home, everyone truly enjoyed their stay. It was by far 5 star accommodations that I would give 10 if I could!

Riverhurst on the Potomac
We had a great stay at Cameron’s home. Even though the weather didn’t cooperate we were able to spend a lot of time on back patio which felt like we were almost outside. Cameron was nice enough to let us check in early. Overall great time and looking forward to next time. Thanks again Cameron.

Beautiful, serene waterfront property
The place was beautiful and very clean. My only concern was no blinds downstairs for privacy and the oven needs cleaning. I will rent again.

Waterfront Escape!
Ryan’s home was lovely. Perfect for our family. Ryan thought of every detail to make our stay seamless and relaxing. His home was clean and well kept, but the personal touches made it even more lovely. We will definitely be back.

Lakefront/Dock, Woods, 3 Beaches, Kayaks, Hot tub
This cabin was everything we wanted and more! It’s in the perfect location, just a short drive to so many activities but also tucked away offering privacy. The house was so cozy it put us at ease as soon as we walked in. The owner was proactive and very quick to respond, including sending a great packing and local activity list a couple days in advance of our trip which came in very handy. Activities: This rental comes with guest passes to the private Shark Tooth Beach where our kids had so much fun finding real shark and manta ray teeth in the sand! Westmorland State Park and George Washington’s Birthplace both had great hiking and beaches for the kids. We visited Garners Produce twice where the kids fed animals and pedaled toy tractor’s while we picked up farm fresh milk and eggs. We spent our afternoons kayaking on the quiet lake soaking up the sunshine. We will definitely book another vacation at this cabin. You will not be disappointed with your stay at this little gem!

Waterfront Home, Spectacular View & Private Beach!
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!

Waterfront home, private dock
We had a wonderful get away from the city. House was warm and comfortable. Our host was extremely helpful and professional. Highly recommend to everyone.
