Steps away from the Chesapeake Bay in the unique Bay Ridge community!

We stayed here for the week for our son’s commissioning from the Naval Academy. It was the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of downtown..excellent location across from Chesapeake.. quiet neighborhood for walking. House was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Kim was very accommodating and responded quickly with any questions we had. Loved the kitchen and porches. Can’t say enough good things! We would highly recommend this property.

We loved our time at the Bay Ridge Community! It was the perfect place for us to stay, and with all the attention for details there is no surprise that our host has only 5 star reviews! The house is so pretty and with many cozy and well decorated rooms, the beds are very comfortable, we all slept super well! The views are stunning, we loved to sit at the the garden table to enjoy meals and the view. There is plenty of beautiful areas to sit, chat and enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. I just wished we had more days...The kitchen is very well equipped with everything and beyond to cook for a family. We appreciate our host leaving milk, coffee and water for us. The communication was very easy, she was very friendly and gave all instructions and many tips on things to do and places to eat or order food from. I now miss the morning walks with the bay views... and the kayaking. It was just perfect, close enough from the Naval Academy and Annapolis but at the same time far from the noise and the traffic. We spent very happy days with my son at this house and we hope to be back soon.

We loved our stay as the house was perfect for our group. The setting was beautiful overlooking the bay and the neighborhood was quiet and lovely and the grounds were extremely well cared for. Our host was fabulous as she was very detailed with information about the house and was accommodating to our needs. We would definitely stay there again! Bravo!!

From the moment we arrived at 4 Sands Anenue for Commissioning week, we started feeling like we were actually on vacation. All the stress of preparations melted away. The very first evening when our soon to be commissioned son and I sat out on the patio enjoying a quiet moment while the light faded over the water, he said, Mom I can't imagine a better place to celebrate this week. The home is so lovely and the Bay Ridge community is idealic. The property has been meticulously updated inside and out. The furnishings are beautiful and the decor is fun and artistic. The spaces offer flexibility for entertaining and sleeping. The master suite is large with a separate sitting area, ensuite bath with tub and shower. French doors from this space open to a second level screened porch with beautiful sweeping views of the water. It's an inviting place for morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. It's truly a sanctuary. Another large bedroom w ensuite complete the upper level. A first floor bedroom with easy access to a full bath provided the perfect accommodations for my elderly father. There is also a den on the first level w a sleeper sofa that offers additional guest space or a quiet reading area. The eat in kitchen with large island is gourmet appointed. We had such a great time making family meals that we ended up never going out to eat. For our catered "after" party, the kitchen was separate enough for food set up and prep that it was out of the fray of the entertaining spaces. The living room, dining room and sun room all open to each other and best of all, flow right outside to a garden style area that is perfect for dining al fresco and yard games. The Bay Ridge Community is the perfect location for peaceful walks or bike rides. A little beach area is very close by and the owners provided kayaks and beach chairs for our use. Bay Ridge is still just a 10 minute drive to the historic district and the Yard. Our son was really happy we chose a more relaxing location from DTA. Our family had the most wonderful stay at 4 Sands Avenue, it was truly magical for us and I highly recommend it. Sandy Fennell Commissioning Week 2017
