A proposito di questa soggiorno in fattoria struttura in affitto
Whether you need to recharge your batteries, explore one of the most remote creeks on the Eastern Shore, or introduce your children to the rural/farm life, you have found the perfect spot in Sunset Point Farm.
Everything you need to enjoy your stay is here: towels, sheets, shampoo, laundry detergent, farm-fresh eggs, beach towels, beach chairs, an umbrella, cooler, etc. I do not provide bug spray or sunscreen as everyone seems to have their preference in this department.
** Reviews posted before 5/20 are from a time when I lived in NH and employed a property manager. All reviews since then are directly related to my house/hosting.**
This is the home I grew up in and has been in the family since 1947. Having built next door (don't worry, you will have privacy) I am available to help you have a wonderful stay as your host.
Four bedroom, 2.5 bath house with living, dining, kitchen, screened porch, and back deck.
Water on two sides of the property - our dock is right outside the front door. Behind the house to the north/right is our forest/marsh area, home to a great horned owl, red-headed woodpeckers, and a few deer.
A five-minute walk down the field brings you to our shoreline - a great place to catch red drum, speckled trout, or stripers/rockfish on any incoming tide. In 2024, Mother Nature removed much of the sand here, so this coastline is mostly red clay. There is a sandbar in our creek that is nice. I don't know what Mother Nature has done to it this winter - she always changes its shape during the winter. But there should be a sandbar in Summer 2025 that is accessible by boat (if we are here, we can taxi you) or Kayak (we have three kayak/paddle combos). The sandbar is less than a mile from our dock via kayak.
What can you do on this property? In no particular order:
1) Crab/fish from the dock
2) Launch your boat (up to 24" ) flat bottom is best for this water, but smaller V hulls work too
3) Go birding - my cousin clocked 47 species in 2 hours last July
4) Walk down the field to the shoreline and scout for arrowheads
5) Read a book on the back deck
6) Have a fire in the backyard
7) Kayak (we have three you can use)
8) Have crab or clam steam ( we are happy to procure for you)
10) Collect the eggs (chickens in our nearby barn - roosters are friendly)
11) Go to the sandbar - if we are here, we are happy to ferry you
12) Book a fishing trip with our favorite guide Drew Sturgis
Please message me if you have any questions about extra guests, what's possible, etc. We aim to please.
Suggested:
Day 1: arrive, walk the field, settle in, enjoy a drink, and unwind.
Day 2: pack a lunch and go to the sandbar if the weather is good. If it's rainy, the Barrier Island Center shares some of the Shore's history and traditions in a beautiful setting. Follow this by lunch across the street at the Machipongo Coffee Company, or travel 15 minutes south to Cape Charles for lunch and ice cream.
Day 3: Drive an hour north to Assateague Island and enjoy the beach. Rent bikes and tour Chincoteague. Stop by the Island Creamery for delicious ice cream (No matter how long the line is, it's worth the wait!).
Day 4: Book a fishing trip with the best guide on the Eastern Shore, Drew Sturgis. Young and old appreciate catching a fish! End the day with a clam steam (we can pick up for you if you give me 48-hour notice).
Day 5: Book a trail ride at Phiefer Stables in Machipongo (20-minute distance from here)
Day 6: Back to the standard for more of the most beautiful places around here. Take a nap... cook in.
Day 7: Everyone does best with a good breakfast. Eat some farm-fresh eggs before you leave!

We have been enjoying vacations on the Eastern shore for years. This year was outstanding! The property was private, yet close enough to go exploring to Chincoteague or Cape Charles! Thank you to Ellen and Dennis for making us feel comfortable, checking in to ensure all was well, and sharing their farm life with us! Our dog loved the ability to be off leash and get some swimming in! He also looked forward to Birdie coming to visit! We usually rent a home for the enclosed porch, but the week we were there, I spent days reading on the outer deck, enjoying the constant breeze and comfy deck chairs, with a great view of the farm! Hoping to be able to come back again! Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

This was a truly wonderful stay! Ellen and her sweet lab Birdie were the most gracious hosts. Ellen was super responsive and helpful when we needed anything. We were 5 adults, 2 young children, and our dog (huge plus that there was no pet fee required!) , and found the home had more than enough space for a comfortable stay for our group. The home and kitchen were generously stocked with every possible thing, including fresh eggs from the farm for us on the counter when we arrived. The home is in a beautiful, quiet, country setting, which was exactly what we were looking for, and we enjoyed seeing all of the farm animals and wildlife around the home and surrounding areas. We particularly enjoyed having access to the dock and the property's small beach shoreline, which made for easy access to fishing and crabbing. We had the best time and would absolutely stay here again!

Ellen & her husband Dennis were very hospitable. Dennis helped us when we locked our keys in our car. He went above & beyond. They saw that we had FRESH oysters at our cookout. Our only issue was FLIES, mosquitoes & the heat. We understand this is that time of year however, if we could've closed off the back porch, could have turned on the fan, & maybe had some citronella tiki and/or candles. The split units in the house were a little hard to understand, so parts of the house were at times hot. We figured them out by day 2. But hey...it's summertime. I would love to come back!

The property manager is very kind and committed, but the place was really dirty. Not only did we did not want to spend time cleaning on vacation, but in the time of covid, we want to trust that the house had been thoroughly cleaned. The good things: AC, the view, the quiet, the stars, the paintings, the house. The problematic things: We arrived and I started picking up broken glass bottles from the front walk, found lots to clean inside, cabinets full of dead ants, dirty oven, and wrote to the manager who came right over to help out. The house notes say we have to bring out the garbage with us, but there were no garbage bags or paper towels. The manager called the cleaners to come back, but in quarantine, we did not want people inside the house. The view is glorious, but the bugs are intense and the house is on the water, but no swimming in the brackish water. It may have been a bad week and we were unlucky, and I know the property manager will make sure the house is spotless in the future.
