Directly Across from USNA Gate One & Steps from the Waterfront and Main Street!

Vacations are meant to be carefree! Let the chimes from the Naval Academy chapel start your day. Stroll along our famed waterfront or sit at City Dock and imagine what Annapolis must have been like during the 1700's, when the City was a bustling seaport with vessels arriving from all over the world. Or, watch sailboat races in the harbor and understand why Annapolis is called, America's Sailing Capital.

This historic home was built in 1908 and has been fully renovated & perfectly equipped for your stay.

Located in the heart of downtown Annapolis, 10 Randall is conveniently located, granting instant access to the Main Gate of The US Naval Academy, the Annapolis Harbor, local restaurants and bars, boat cruises, and a variety of specialty shops ~ Making this location ideal for wedding parties, Navy parents and Alumni, sailors, and weekend travelers.

For those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle, the private courtyard provides the perfect setting for intimate dining or catching up on a good book.

Professionally cleaned and beautifully maintained, this home sleeps eight (8) comfortably in two queen beds, one convertible full bed, and one sectional/sleeper (queen) in the living room.

Parking is provided for one vehicle (up to a mid-sized SUV). If your vehicle is larger or additional cars need to park, it may be possible to provide parking at an additional cost. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Both the home and Annapolis have something special to offer...all year long. This home is ideal for Naval Academy events, family gatherings, wedding parties, graduations, boat shows and regattas!

Great place to stay
The house was in a great location to be able to walk to the Naval Academy and also walk downtown to enjoy the evenings and places to eat. The house was exactly as described and the host was great to work with. If there is a need for us to go the the Naval Academy in the future, we will certainly stay at this location.

Such a great location in the heart of downtown Annapolis. We didn’t get into our car the entire weekend—all the restaurants and shops were a short walk away. The place was clean and spacious, and we especially enjoyed breakfast and coffee in the cute patio outside. Will definitely stay here again!

The house was in a great location for accessing everything in downtown Annapolis with a short walk. We were able to park easily and didn’t use our car during the rest of our stay.

Perfect location in historic downtown Annapolis directly across the street from the Naval Academy
Everything we needed was provided. The fireplace was most enjoyable during this January visit and the first snow there in 6 years. There’s a delightful back patio but unfortunately the weather did not allow its use. The bed was comfortable and the heater and hot water worked great.
