Waterfront Family Retreat with gorgeous views and a large Deepwater Dock. 5' MLW

This 4 bedroom 2 bath home is perfectly situated on a picturesque peninsula on Hudson Creek. There is a beautiful water view from every room.

Enjoy the water with one of the 4 kayaks or take a bike ride on one of the 3 bicycles. Just want to slow down? Relax in the waterfront hammock and just take in the beautiful views. At night, enjoy the waterfront fire pit.

The large waterfront back yard is wonderful for family entertaining. The deep water pier provides excellent fishing and crabbing. (4.5-5MLW) Crab traps provided.

Loaded with the comforts of home , you won't need to bring much to relax here.

Boys Annual Fall Glamping
This house was the perfect venue for our trip- we caught fish and crabs off the backyard pier, we watched the sun rise and set off the pier, we very much enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit with the stash of fire wood right next to it. The picnic table in the yard and decks allowed us to dine alfresco. The deck grill was very helpful for us in prepping our meals.. we hope to come back again and recommend this place to anyone seeking some quiet time from the city.

Family vacation on the water!
What a great location - getting our extended family together at this great property right on the water was fantastic. The views were incredible and all of the kayaks and stand up paddle boards were so enjoyable to use. Communications Alan could not have been better. We hope to stay again!!

This was our second family getaway to this property. The home is very well appointed, and the water front views from the living room, deck, and fire pit areas cannot be beat. We'll be back again next year.

Big backyard with grill & kayaks, and dock for fishing & crabbing cages
My family and my sister in law’s family stayed there for 3 nights. We all had a great time! Grandpa and my husband love fishing and crabbing while kids kayaking. We also watched sunrise twice in the backyard, which is beautiful. Inside the house has enough room for my group. We enjoy our staying!

Peaceful Retreat
My family spent a relaxing Memorial Day weekend here. We had plenty of space for our kids and my parents to be comfortable. The home was clean and provided all the kitchen and grilling tools we needed. It was quiet and peaceful. We spent a lot of time playing in the huge, well-maintained yard. We even caught a few crabs off the dock!

Stay for Cambridge Ironman
This property location is great. Beautiful water views from the house, the yard, and the dock. Large bedrooms and living areas. Kitchen spacious and well equipped The kids and the adults enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards and the bikes that were provided. Fire pit was an extra bonus. Property was quiet and easy to find. Would be great for a longer stay. Property owner was very accommodating even offering late checkout for our 3 Ironman participants to come back to shower before our drive home.

Beautiful views and peaceful setting
The location on the water allowed our family to enjoy swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and attempts at crabbing. The outdoor space provided plenty of room for the kids to play ball, run around, have water gun fights without worry of disturbing the neighbors (the house is on a cul de as). We also biked, took long walks and visited local crab shack for delicious crabs. Our host Alan was easy to contact and answered our questions timely. Overall we had a lovely vacation! Lisa (renter)

Picture Perfect
Our family from 4 states came together for a great vacation. It's hard to choose based on photographs, but the house is roomier even than we thought, and the property was large and private--as if we owned the whole peninsula. The fire pit area, private dock, and availability of kayaks and equipment really enhanced our stay. The kitchen is well equipped with good quality utensils, cookware, etc. The owner was just a text away for any questions or concerns that we had. We are keeping this on our list of favorites!

Family getaway
Had a lovely stay at this Cambridge waterfront property. It is about 20 minutes outside of town in a lovely quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room for two families with children and dogs. We all had a nice time out on the kayaks and paddleboards, and spent evenings watching the sun go down and crabbing. We had quite a few mosquitoes, so plan to pack extra bug spray. The crabbing was fantastic, and the host had two large crab pots in addition to two small crab traps for our enjoyment. The kids had a great time, and we caught over 3 dozen crabs. The host was very responsive to communications and was a pleasure to work with.

Waterfront Weekend Getaway
This house offered a quiet, relaxing getaway for my adult family and grandchild. It is just as pictured. Roomy and comfortable for our family of six adults, and two dogs. Alan was very responsive, not that we needed him much. Bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, TV and Wifi were all in order. Didn't get a chance for the many outdoor activities offered, because it was cold and windy, but may come back again someday in warmer weather.

Fabulous views and yard
We thoroughly enjoyed a safe family gathering as a substitute for the Thanksgiving and Christmas we won't be able to share this year. Just about all of our time was spent with children and grandchildren outside - even in late November! We were creative and spent many hours around the fire pit warmed by propane heaters (which we brought with us). It's a bit of a unusual layout for a house, but very spacious and was just what we were looking for for this gathering. Kids were able to fish, catch a few small crabs and even kayak on a warm weekend day.

Fantastic house and location
TL;DR: we had the best vacation in years here! Long Story: We were 2 families (9 in total) and stayed for a week. The house is about a 25 minute drive to Cambridge where you have food, groceries and a Walmart for supplies. The house, dock and property location were the primary reasons we chose to stay here, as its very quiet and remote but close enough to go out to dinner. One tip: as you're driving to and from Cambridge, keep your eyes open for deer as they can jump out in front of you in a pack. The house itself was great, stocked with toys, games, fishing poles, crab traps, kayaks and bikes. You'll need to bring your own bedsheets, towels and supplies like toilet paper and paper towels. The owner, Alan, is very responsive and communicates all of this in his welcome letter. We brought our own fishing gear and right off the dock you can catch dozen of Perch and Spot in the early morning and evening which can be used as live bait for larger fish in the Chesapeake. We rented a boat from Slaughter Creek Marina and they delivered and picked up the boat to the house if you rent for several days, otherwise it's about a 45 drive to them. The bedrooms are comfortable and there's air conditioning in all of them. Wifi was great and cell service was fine on ATT, Verizon and TMobile. Watching the sun rise in the morning from the dock is amazing! If you're looking for a place away from the crowds but close to a city, you can't go wrong staying here!
