Great escape
We were so very happy with everything about this experience, from the kind owners to the quiet location by the Chesapeake Bay to the property itself. It's a great house, very comfortable, with a beautiful backyard. The screened-in patio was perfect for our evening football watching and the whole place was warm and inviting. We'll definitely be back and have already recommended the property to family and friends.

Perfection
The house is cozy, immaculate and well stocked. We lived on the screened in back porch. The weather was perfect for a fire on the porch and a fire in the fire pit - both areas fully supplied. Food Lion and a few restaurants are all within 10-15 minutes, and an organized guide to the area was provided. It was easy to navigate crossing the bridge to Annapolis/The Naval Academy which was around 30 minutes away. Karen was generous and extremely easy to communicate with. We can’t say enough good things about our experience and hope to return.

Relaxing Getaway
We enjoy visiting Annapolis and the Eastern Shore, so this was the perfect location. It is obvious that the home was built for visitors to enjoy. The design and decor are beautifully done and the accoutrements are perfect. There are dozens of places to sit and visit or just relax. The owners were available, friendly and accommodating. We absolutely plan to return in the future. I just hope the oyster is still in the house!

Response:Thanks so much Maynard! It was our pleasure to host your visit! And yes…the Oyster Reef coffee has been a big hit! So glad…as I bought it just because the can was cool looking! We will be sure to keep that stocked at the coffee station. Thanks for choosing Off The Chart Stays for your home away from home!!! Mark & Karen

Great weekend.
Excellent property with tons of amenities. House was very cozy and extremely clean. We spent a ton of time on the outdoor screened porch. Our family had a blast. Would recommend this property to anyone.

lovely retreat
Everything you could need from chip bag clips to top of the line cookware and appliances with a lovely feel of a Maryland oasis. Very thoughtful with how this home has been stocked for guests and the decor and ambience are truly OFF THE CHARTS.

Slice of heaven
Depicted just as advertised and then some. This location is special. There are little unexpected touches to this place that makes staying here that much more enjoyable. The hosts are extremely communicative and without hesitation standing by to assist in any way possible to make staying here great. The screened in patio is a very cool element to the whole experience. Make no mistake about it, I’ll be back. Beautiful spot through and through. Great stay.

Great place, great people
This home, and the owners, is so great. Not much of a better way to put it. The house: Beautiful outside and in. Quite literally like a home away from home. We had shampoo and soap in the showers, all the kitchen needs, and our hosts were gracious enough to leave homemade muffins and some drinks for us to enjoy. The house is new, and much of everything inside. We spent most of our time on the patio out back, as it was perfect weather to just hang out and talk/play games. The hosts are just as great as the house. They’re local folks, who are more than happy to make your stay as memorable as they can. They’ve got an open line of communication, and are happy to come over to start the fire in the fire pit out back, or just tell you how to use some of the stuff they’ve got in the house. Overall, we’ll surely be staying here when we come back in the future for family visits. Great place, and great people.
