This place was an absolute dream. When you drive down the mile long driveway, suddenly the house comes into view and you will gasp at the location. We gathered for a family reunion and it was perfect. Very remote so no neighbors to disturb. Enough rooms and beds for all our family members. Tons of room to gather and have quality time with your loved ones. Mary Beth leaves the place stocked with supplies, a filtered water machine, lots of outdoor activity toys. No light pollution at night when you want to hang outside and see the stars. The area is beautiful and we took one night out to go to the local Goose Creek Put and Pub and they welcomed us with open arms. We had such a blast and it was a perfect spot for our large family of all ages. Highly recommend.

Pictures didn't do this property justice. It was gorgeous!! The kayaks and canoes were used everyday and the pier provided a quiet spot on the water to reflect. Sunrises and sunsets were magnificent! Swimming was inhibited by early arrival of jellyfish, but the beaches Adateague and Ocean City beckoned the group anyway. We had a group of 19 and the caretaker was only phone call away if we needed anything. Sleeping arrangements were as advertised but mattress upgrades in some of the beds may make sleeping more comfy.Overall we loved this place and would highly recommend it to anyone.
