Photos and Description of the Port Republic vacation house rental
3 Bedrooms + Finished Basement Bunk Area, 3 Full Baths (Sleeps 8)

This beautiful and well-equipped family-friendly bay house, only one hour from D.C., features exquisite views of the Chesapeake Bay from atop a 300' cliff. Great for a romantic weekend or bring the whole family for a week's vacation - there's lots to do! Accommodations include a master bedroom with a queen bed and full bath on the third level, two bedrooms with full beds and with full bath on the main level, and on the lower level - the perfect kids' quarters complete with twin beds, sofa and love seat, cable TV (ready for video game hook-up), full bath with jacuzzi tub, pool table with cafe tables and bar stools - even a second refrigerator for drinks and snacks. Two new, individual kayaks with life vests come with the rental.

The house is furnished with a mixture of coastal-inspired new furniture and antiques, is light-filled and meticulously maintained, has incredible views of the bay and property from all rooms, and with its wooded lot and fenced backyard (double lot) this house offers privacy and serenity for the perfect, relaxing but fun-filled getaway.

Children are welcome but renters should know in advance that 1) the back yard is a rather steep hill leading up from the house. 2) The yard is within 15 feet of the cliff edge. The edge has natural barriers including dense hedges, tree groves and fence gates, but children must be supervised at all times. 3) Interior decorative items include breakable pottery and glass. 4) The Chesapeake Bay does not have deep, sandy beaches like the ocean. It does not have waves like the ocean. Swimmers and walkers should wear shoes.

Greatest Getaway!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 21, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
We enjoyed our mini-getaway at this wonderful Beach property location. These days trying to catch up with young teenagers with busy schedules, is not always easy. We played board games, experienced the beach and of course just relaxed talking in this quite private setting . Everthing at this property is very well maintained. I look forward to a return visit.

A wonderful retreat!

5 of 5
Submitted: June 6, 2011 Stayed: April 2011
I've had the pleasure of staying at this property on two separate occasions. It's a beautiful home and the morning's watching the sunrise on the Bay can't be matched. It also has a great deck for entertaining plus the solitude of a very private yard for an afternoon nap.

The house is well appointed and is a great weekend (or week) getaway and it is so convenient to DC being only an hour away.

Charming House on the Bay

5 of 5

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at this charming Bay house recently. It was wonderful -- beautiful views from every room. Comfortable house with wonderful cozy furniture and atmosphere. Nice size and very workable kitchen. It couldn't have been nicer.

Perfect place to relax!

I cannot imagine a more comfortable place to get away and relax. The view is absolutely unbeatable. If you can pry yourself away from the house, there are great places to hike nearby and delicious restaurants to enjoy. I cannot wait to return.

Relaxing and Tranquil

Thank you for allowing us to stay at your home. The home was in a fantastic location, secluded yet close to everything. The views of the Chesapeake were breathtaking, and it was only a short walk to the beach. The rooms were large and perfectly decorated, and the house was immaculately kept.
We look forward to our visit next year.
