This house was perfect for our family as we dropped off our second Plebe to USNA. One of the best we’ve stayed in — the location can’t be beat and there’s plenty of space to unwind and relax with room for all to breathe a bit. It’s clean and tastefully decorated. The outdoor space is charming, too! We hope this house works for some of our future events in Annapolis!

The house was great and the location is excellent! Very authentic and historical and the backyard was darling. The room with two king beds is smaller than it appeared, so just be aware if you are planning to have multiple people sleep in there. The host sent multiple automated texts with standard check in and out procedures but was otherwise a little challenging to get ahold of. There were minimal supplies for a 10 person stay and I would suggest the house have more supplies for the size of guests. However I would still stay here again knowing that!

Thanks for a wonderful stay! Home was beautifully kept and just steps away from downtown.

This place has everything you need. It’s a short walk to everything you need in Annapolis and has a great backyard for entertaining and enjoying the outside. The bedrooms are very comfortable and we would highly recommend.
