This home was exactly as advertised. Our family of two parents, three adult kids, one 11 year old and one grandfather fit beautifully. The accommodations were spotless. This is not a modern or fancy home, but a lovingly maintained family home with plenty of room for both privacy and the whole group to gather. The kitchen was way more than adequate for the cooking we needed to do, which tended toward cheese platters and morning coffee, and it, in addition to the dining room, accommodated all of us.
The bedroom situation is thus: two nice sized bedrooms (one with two twin beds and the other with a queen or double) were on one side of the house along with one bathroom. The fold-out couch in a room adjacent to the living room was fine for twenty year olds, but was not entirely separate from the living room and had a window and a door open to the living room. Not a problem for us, but nice to know. The master bedroom/bath was spacious and on the other side of the house, providing significant privacy.
THE PLACE TO BE was outside at sunset. What a show! Astoundingly beautiful sunsets most nights. Do bring your Off! mosquito repellant, but the changing view is absolutely worth a few mosquito bites.
We used the house as our home base for day trips to Easton, St. Michaels, Tilghman Island, Annapolis and Baltimore, and although we faced a couple of traffic snarl-ups, in general, we felt the location was quite convenient.
Harry and Scott the owners are very pleasant and fastidious homeowners.
I hope we'll be back.

The house is as depicted as comfortable and homey. It was very clean and well maintained and there were many amenities provided to make our stay comfortable. The owner was very helpful and had notes everywhere to facilitate our use of his home. I would certainly recommend this property and will stay there again. The only suggestion I would make would be the replacement of the mattresses in the second bedroom.We had a family gathering and everyone found the accommodations to be most comfortable.

Want to get a taste of what it is like to live on Kent Island? This is the house. It’s located in an upscale neighborhood but manages to retain the charm of its original owners. As you drive down the tree lined driveway towards the house, the bay becomes visible along with the private dock. When you are ushered through the front door, your eye is drawn to all the little historical details of the house such as the interior Dutch door, the brick fireplace in the library and the built-in corner cabinet in the kitchen. Once you’ve taken in the spotless appearance (spotless means no evidence of previous guests), you will marvel at the décor. Not your ordinary rental fare. The kitchen is well equipped with just about anything you might need to stir up a casual dinner of crabs to a full course meal with a better than picnic presentation. The bedrooms are located at either end of the house allowing for a private master bedroom/ bath combination. The central air conditioning worked beautifully in 95 degree temperatures.
The house is situated in a rural setting but within reach of the local stores. Kent Island has a charm of its own. You become an islander while shopping for supplies or dining in the restaurants. Souvenir shops were not around every corner. Remnants of century old historical sites are within a short drive as well as the public beach in the park. The locals are more than willing to give you tips on what to see and where to eat. Major site seeing destinations, such as the Annapolis Naval Academy’s new museum are just a short drive over the Bay Bridge and a day at Saint Michaels is just a drive southward. For one short week, our family enjoyed the hospitality of the Sander family, kayaked in the bay, crabbed off the dock, enjoyed site seeing, went for evening walks in the neighborhood and relaxed……………..

Terrific place. The owners couldn't have been more helpful. The family is already talking about coming back next year.

A beautiful setting and gracious hosts made for a totally relaxing early Spring break from all stresses. The house is in a lovely location, with sweeping water views, great dock and all wished-for comforts inside. Yet, just minutes away one finds every shopping, dining and service needs easily fulfilled,Whether you spend a weekend or several weeks there, you will leave refreshed and happy you chose this property. We've been there at least five times!!!

We stayed in the property over the last week of July and found it to be quite relaxing. While the weather was quite warm, it was not too bad for most of the trip and we spent a great deal of time in the water. My kids insisted on putting out the crab traps and we caught enough for a great dinner our last night.

There are plenty of great restaurants close by, and the location is very convienent to both the Annapolis area, and Easton and St. Michaels on the Eastern Shore.

One note of information.....The primary way to get to the house is across the Bay Bridge. During the weekend, the traffic going to the Eastern Shore can back up pretty badly. If your schedule will allow it, try to go across sometime late in the day.

The last thing we said as we left was..."I wonder what this place is like in the fall." Hopefully we will return and find out.

Quality, spacious vacation home property with excellent amenities, beautifully maintained grounds (3 acres) and outstanding location on Kent Island provided recent Memorial Day weekend experience that will long be remembered. Everything described was provided and delivered as promised. Property delighted our family members-- who ranged in age from 3 years old to 80+ -- with rooms for everyone to spread out, shared meals on enclosed sun deck with sweeping views of the water and sunsets, we fished and crabbed from the private pier and along the shore. We trekked to nearly local restaurants in Kent Narrows, found time to sight see in nearby historic Cambridge, Annapolis and Baltimore Harbor, Returned to this lovely home--more like a tranquil, peaceful oasis--to be refreshed and rejuvenated. Owners were extremely knowledgeable of the area, took great care to respond to our initial queries when booking and then provided even more professional, courteous and helpful support upon arrival, We hated to leave and can't wait to return.

We spent 4 days at this place. It was a nice little family get together. The house is amazing. Everything is exactly the way it has been described. Everything is provided for and very well planned with the anticipation of all the possible needs of the guest. We spent most of the time sitting in the porch watching the water. The sunsets are the best.

The best part of all is that the Sanders were very communicative from the start. Everything was very upfront and clear. I received my deposit back within 10 days as promised.
