Potomac River Crabbing & Fishing Paradise

Your stay at Toney's Landing begins each day at sunrise when an endless array of fowl and fish swoop onto your lines, sweep down from the sky, and gather to be your visual joy and even your breakfast. God brings them fresh daily, and you don't even need a fishing license as the pier is private. The Osprey, Blue Heron, and Bald Eagles are your custom airshow while you wait for a tug on your line. Two crab pots await your bait, chicken quarters from the grocery store work fine, and soon you will have your fresh caught dinner as well. Fast internet will keep you in touch with the world you have left behind, and three wide-screen TVs are available for your relaxation. Toney's Landing is named for a bootlegger who ran moonshine from Virginia boats up to his customers on Capitol Hill during Prohibition and even today; you can venture out to legal wineries and distilleries in the area or take a 20-minute trip to Solomon's Island or down to St. Mary's City and Point Lookout. Your best adventure is to simply fix your coffee and enjoy the morning on your private picnic table on top of the pier and keep a watchful eye on your lines. Tall ships, historic Oyster Buyboats, fast power boats, and slow-day sailors will glide by while you ponder why you would want to be anywhere else.

A nice waterfront cottage
The owner seemed very nice and checked in daily to see how we were doing. Since the property is directly on the water, that is the most desirable aspect. The home is, as other reviewers have noted, full of every necessity: food, dishware, linens, etc. The only downside is that because the home is older and has not been updated structurally, it is very musty, which can wreak havoc on those with allergies and asthma. In addition, the well water that is untreated and has a heavy sulfur odor may or may not bother some as it did us. In short, my son and I left a couple days early due to the odor of the home and the well water, although these aspects might not bother everyone. Again, the owner checked in with us daily, but other than placing many air fresheners around the home as he had already done before our arrival, we knew there was nothing more that he could do, so we lost two days and went to a hotel, which was disappointing.

Quick Stay
Property was adorable and cozy. Wish we were staying longer because it felt like home. Host made so many things available to us. Host was a selling point. He was like a tour guide, giving us info on places to eat, shop and helped us out with crabbing. Came over to say goodbye on checkout day. We would highly recommend host and Toneys Landing to anyone.

I've stayed at quite a few VRBO properties but this experience was by far the best! Our host was very active in making sure we had everything we could possibly need for an enjoyable stay and the amenities were above and beyond what any of our needs might have been. The only downside? Not enough crabs wanted to get caught! I'll gladly return here again and again and won't hesitate recommending this property for a pleasant, relaxing vacation!!

Great week of R & R
Quaint little house along the Bay. Quiet area and filled with essentials. Our host had a welcoming stocked house for us. Bottled water, coffee, seasonings, snacks, linens, towels, toiletries too numerous to mention. Very thoughtful of the individuals renting the house. When we arrived it was raining and our host was waiting with an umbrella to welcome us. Ken (our host) lived next door. A wealth of knowledge, suggestions about the area and restaurants to eat. He showed me how to set up and empty the crab traps. Great choice. Thanks Ken for the hospitality

Fishing and Crabbing Paradise...it's true!
Had an excellent week at the property. Ken/Donna, the owners, are fantastic. House was stocked with snacks, spices, and everything you need for a crab feast. Location is away from the mainstream but easy to find and WELL WORTH IT! Figured out the Wi-Fi TV with Ken's help and will be looking to dump FIOS/cable for good at my home. We had the most relaxing time here and will consider returning next year. You get your own private fishing pier with 2 crab pots provided. This was an awesome stay, completely relaxing, and the Eagles, Ospreys, and Herons are visible and very close every day. Absolutely amazing bonus! Thank you for everything Ken & Donna. Glad you liked Paula's brownies!

Rustic Getaway for fishing and crabbing
My wife and I loved our time at Toney's Landing. It was a beautiful little respite on the Potomac River in an iconic 50's cottage. The setting is lovely; incredibly private with spectacular views 24/7. We caught some small fish but the big draw was 67 keeper-size blue crabs in 3 1/2 days. 5 star room service, marble floors, spa onsite and turndown service? Nope, you're looking at the wrong place. This is a homey comfortable-as-an-old-shoe-style fishing cottage. Our host was very helpful and provided all sorts of snacks, spring water, and even some bait and two crab traps. We spent much of our time on the private dock fishing and crabbing and watching birds, including bald eagles and numerous osprey. We saw dolphins one day as well. Will strongly consider returning next year!

Perfection
Toney's Landing was everything we had hoped for and then some! The property was exactly as pictured! There were so many personal touches and extra little things that it felt more like staying at a relatives home rather than a vacation rental. The atmosphere was so peaceful! Fishing and crabbing were amazing! We ate our daily catches nightly for dinner! Our host Ken was most accommodating and it was hard to leave because conversation just flowed so nicely with him! If you are looking for a wonderful place to just relax and escape reality for a bit, this is the perfect place to do so! While it was our first visit to Toney's Landing, it certainly will not be the last!

My husband and grandson fished from morning to night. We just fell in love with the place. First time when it was time to leave we wanted to stay. The owners were more than accommodating. The nicest person you could ever want to meet. He could not do enough to make your stay relaxing. We definitely will be coming back.

Everything as described
This maintained, quaint 1950s waterfront cottage was equipped as described. The owners lived next-door and Ken was very friendly offering local and surrounding history as well as ideas/reviews of places to visit and see. Although we did not catch any fish, there were fishing poles there for us to use. In addition, two crab pod‘s were available for crabbing. The neighborhood was very quiet offering as much solitude and restful sleep. The house, even though it was a two bedroom and one bath, suited us nicely for all of our needs. We are hoping at some point to return to this area and if this property is available we would rent again. Thank you to the owners for helping us feel welcomed.

Loved this place right on the Potomac River...all the comforts of home! Next time I hope I can bring my boat and dock on the pier. Very secluded, but not far from good restauraunts and Leonardtown business district. Ken was an excellent host and made sure we had everything we need and was very responsive. We will be back later in the summer when the crabs are more plentyful. Nautical decor with very cool folk art pieces, local artwork and maps through out the house.

Great weekend getaway with a great fishing pier!
Amazing little cabin! The host was one of the most welcoming and accomodating hosts we've encountered from our many trips through VRBO. He really cared about the quality of our stay and communication between us was excellent. The pictures are true to what we walked in to. The kitchen had all the needed amenities, cooking utensils and spices. The bedrooms were decent and had comfy enough beds. The view from the back sunroom was absolutely amazing! The fishing was excellent off the end of the dock. We caught numerous perch, one very tiny flounder (and one behemoth that stole one of my best hooks and bobbers! He was huge!!!) and were able to have a decent fish fry for dinner. There were a few provided crab traps from the owner, with him showing us how to load bait and how to use them. We didnt catch any crabs, except for one very small one who kept slipping out the sides. I think he was just happy to come and go as he pleased :-). Overall, this was a great find of a listing and a wonderful, quiet getaway for a long weekend. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much!!
