Worthy of a Repeat Performance
Review Submitted: July 24, 2011
Date of Stay: July 2011
Our family vacation consisted of my husband, myself, our married son, his wife, their small children, ages 7 months, and 3 years. We moored a 19' boat at the provided mooring, and rented the whole house.
We had a wonderful time, no problems with the air conditioning as with an earlier reviewer, it was actually cold when we arrived, and we had to turn up the temperature even on an extremely hot week.
It was a great rental location for the children. The three year old loved the bunk beds. Both children loved playing in the sand and in the shallow water.The children and my son enjoyed the wildlife in the creek located on the side of the house. Turtles would sun on a log during the day, and Eagles and Blue Heron were spotted daily. Puzzles, games and toys were available, along with movies, books, TV's (at least 4) to providing entertainment.
We enjoyed a campfire on a cooler evening, and enjoyed a marvelous lunch at Woody's in the North East, one of the best seafood meals I have ever eaten.
As long time boaters on the Chesapeake, we found the North East to be a pleasant boating location. Typical river rock as you enter the water, but not very far out, and then a nice sandy bottom. You could tube and ski right in front of the house. If you love lighthouses like I do, the North East is just a short boat ride to Fishing Battery, Concord Point and Turkey Point lighthouses.
The home was attractive, and comfortable, and we couldn't determine whether we preferred the lower or upper part of the house best. Each area had something different to offer.
I highly recommend this vacation rental, it was a pleasant experience worthy of a repeat performance.
