We rented this house for a weekend getaway with four families, including 5 children ranging in age from 7 to 15. The property exceeded our expectations in terms of convenience, spaciousness and location! The house is literally across the street from the beach and the sunset views from the second floor balcony are spectacular. NOTE: This house happens to be across the street from the beach, but it is NOT a beach house in the sense that some renters may be expecting. It may not be a great fit for families with toddlers, young children and/or people with mobility issues who find climbing steep stairs a challenge. The kitchen is for prep and does not have sightlines to the living area. Having said that, our older children LOVED being able to spread out and find quiet places to hang out. The house has an unpaved alley that runs behind it where we parked our cars and our two rented golf carts; this was an unexpected perk because it made it much easier to unload/load luggage, groceries, kids, etc. without watching for street and sidewalk traffic. The back parking area also includes a golf cart charging station which is very helpful if you rent carts (highly recommended). We had very limited interaction with the property manager but that was okay because check-in/ out instructions were very clear and everything was in working order. Bathrooms needed a little more attention and the decor could use a feather duster, but all in all, a great stay!

Our family enjoyed our stay in this lovely, well equipped, fully furnished home! Proximity to the beach and to town gets no better than this! Ending the day with a magnificent sunset just was the perfect ending to a relaxing, step back in time as we enjoyed our time together as a family!

We particularly enjoyed the second floor balcony to watch the sunset. Cannot beat that location.

Our stay at the Chesapeake Bay View was wonderful! The house is even more impressive in person. There are enough beach chairs and beach toys for all so no need to travel with those. The house is beautifully decorated and the owners have thoughtfully and strategically put things out of the reach of toddlers which was a welcome surprise for us. Overall, we could not have asked for a better place to spend time with our family

A beautiful, comfortable house and yard for us to spend some rare quality time with our extended family, and to celebrate a cousin's wedding. Being close to the ocean was also very special. Anne was a lovely host and we would love to come back.
