Great home and perfect location

We were in town for a week visiting my Mid at the Naval Academy and exploring the DC area with two other family members. Home was immaculate and clean. Kitchen was great if you want to cook instead of going out every night. Property is in an ideal location if you want to be slightly outside of busy DTA. Also, close enough to the stadium if you want to walk to a Navy football game. Host was amazing and always available if needed. Would definitely stay again!! 10/10!! Thank you for the great stay!!

Perfect for our visit

House was just as advertised. Obviously well maintained and very welcoming to guests. We were in town for the Annapolis Boat Show and the owners were very accommodating. They worked with us with regards to check in times and leaving our cars parked at the house after check out which we really appreciated. We will stay here again if we're back in town.

The perfect home

We were in town for a girls weekend in Annapolis. Our host Karen couldn’t have been more accommodating. The property was clean and gorgeous, we loved the vintage feel. The patio was perfect for morning coffee and evening cocktails. It was close to everywhere we wanted to go. I highly recommend and we will be back!

One of the best places to stay in Annapolis!

The home and the owner were perfect in every way. From fresh cut flowers, a very thoughtful gift basket, a personalized message, to a well-stocked coffee bar and fridge, no detail was missed. The owner truly cares about your experience and wants you to feel welcome. This has my family's highest recommendation.

Wonderful! Adorable house, great location and the owner is incredibly gracious.

A true gem in Annapolis. Sweet cottage, close to everything! Fabulous backyard for relaxing and enjoying good conversation in a nice neighborhood. It’s an easy 20 minute walk to great restaurants, shopping, and USNA. Plenty even closer than that. Friendly neighbors too! Owner, Karen, was a true delight, and I highly recommend her and her lovely home!

Perfection in Annapolis

We just had the most amazing Annapolis trip! The house is decorated to inspire cheerfulness and nostalgia for a simpler time. Karen, our host, thought of everything we might need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay and the house was sparkling clean. The back patio is a marvel, and we were able to enjoy sitting outside with a coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. Located within a reasonable walking distance to downtown Annapolis, the neighborhood was quiet. If you're not up to the longer walk into town, hop aboard the Annapolis Circulator bus (free of charge) about a block and a half down the street at the Westin Hotel. It also doesn't hurt that you're only a couple of blocks from Miss Shirley's for a breakfast you won't soon forget. I couldn't reccommend this property and host more highly! Thank you, Karen, for a memorable stay in your lovely home in the beautiful city of Annapolis. We hope to stay again in the future.

Perfect

We rented this adorable cottage for a long weekend while we visited our son at the Naval Academy. The neighborhood was quite, which we enjoyed yet close enough to Annapolis to walk to. Lots of nice touches throughout keeping true with the vintage charm. Thank you for sharing your home with us...would def come again.

About the host

Hosted by Property Owner

Host profile image
I love Annapolis and the characteristics of old vintage homes! I purchased this adorable home from the owner who lived in the home since the 1950's, I renovated the home but wanted to keep it cozy with a vintage flair. Its furnished with treasures of days gone by, vintage furniture from the past, memories of grand parents and aunts and uncles. Its a labor of love, the backyard is super cute , covered in twinkling lights making a romantic backdrop for small gatherings, having friends and family over or just sitting alone enjoying the quiet.

Why they chose this property

Annapolis is my home, i love it and am blessed to be here, i want to share what i think is the greatest place to live! The home is furnished with upscale furnishings, towels and bed linens. This home has 3 bedrooms with sleeping room for 5 adults. Located in the quaint historic neighborhood of Murray Hill, there are lovely parks, historic charming homes and all within walking distance of the US Navy Stadium Naval Academy, downtown Annapolis, sailing marinas and historic museums.

What makes this property unique

a homey and romantic oasis in a quiet neighborhood but within walking distance of historic Annapolis. Home is decorated in 1930-50's vintage style and boasts a private backyard enclosed with fairy lights. A separate private cottage is also located on the property, the owner may stay on property or it could be available for optional separate rental.
