Charming Bay Cottage just steps from a beautiful beach and the Chesapeake Bay, a short drive or walk to the crabbing and fishing pier and easy boat access at Sandy Point Park. USNA - 5 miles away and Families LOVE this house! The home is ranch style with hardwood floors, new carpeting and some new furnishings; a large screened in porch with a large table and ceiling fans. The 3rd bedroom is the den a day bed .

Although the house has a somewhat obstructed view of the Bay, this is a wonderful location and short drive to Historic Annapolis Downtown. If you have your own kayaks or a canoe the Little Magothy is a short walk from the house and a very calm and scenic water way.

Great trip, great house

2 night weekend trip with the family to check out USNA. House was perfect for us and the kids. Grill and back porch were perfect for grilling and meals. Check in and out was super easy, and comms with owner were great. Highly recommended for any family looking for a quiet, easy getaway to Annapolis, but away from the downtown bustle.

Quiet retreat close to Annapolis

We loved the clean, comfortable property in this quiet neighborhood. The house was well stocked and within walking distance to the neighborhood beach and park. It’s a short drive to Annapolis, but there are also restaurants and a grocery store nearby which were great options on a busy holiday weekend. Sharon was easy to communicate with and proactive in reaching out to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Our East Coast cottage

This is our 4th stay. We love the value, location, and water accessibility. This is an easy, short drive to USNA, which is what brings us to the area. We just commissioned our last child, and sadly won’t be back (most likely), but will 200 pct recommend Sharon’s Bach cottage to anyone looking for a quaint place to stay. The outdoor space is a bonus, and sitting beachside in the evening to relax after a long day is one of our favorite things to do. 10 out of 10!!

Excellent Stay

This home exceeded our expectations! It's very well maintained, nicely decorated, and had several very nice features. We loved spending time on the screened in porch and appreciated the outdoor shower for rinsing off sand. It's within easy walking distance of the beach and in a quiet community. The host is an excellent communicator and very responsive. Great experience all around for our family!

Convenient, Clean & Comfortable

We needed a place to stay in our neighborhood while we were moving out of our house. Sharon's place was a terrific refuge from the packing/moving craziness. Communication was great; Sharon worked with us to make our stay everything we needed it to be. The house was clean and had all the kitchen tools and other amenities that made family living possible.

Perfect location for USNA events!

This house is in such a beautiful location! We loved that we were a quick 10-15 minute drive to USNA but while we were at the house, our Plebe could just relax and feel like we were far away! :) Short walk to a local park with beach access. Park had a playground that the kids enjoyed! Sharon was easy and pleasant to work with and she allowed us to pay extra and have a late check out which was wonderful! Also, having washing/dryer in the house is super useful! My husband has allergies to some pets, the previous occupants or owner has some animal (s) in the home before us which gave the back rooms in the house a smell and caused his allergies to act up pretty bad. Great little grocery store is a mile away, so we made a quick trip to pick up some meds and he was ok. Also, be sure to note...all linens (towels, sheets, ect) have to be washed and dried and put away prior to check out!!! If we didn't have a late check out, that would have been a huge issue since we didn't realize that until later on check out day...so just be aware of that! Overall, great place and I'd highly recommend it!

Great place to stay with family

We were here for Parent’s Weekend at the USNA. This was a great place to stay and relax. Very comfortable and clean and the house has everything you need. We enjoyed a family meal on the beautiful porch and time at the beach. Groceries, coffee, pizza and ice cream were only five minutes away. The host was fantastic. We will be back.

A peaceful Bay Cottage

We first found this little gem 4 yrs ago, bringing our son to the Naval Academy. And booked it for the 2nd time this week for his Graduation. We have also requested another weeks stay in the future. We love the location! And private beach. Our favorite spot is the screened in porch….making additional living space in the outdoors. The ceiling fans make it most comfortable. Feels like home on the Bay.

Peaceful home away from home

Sharon keeps this home impeccably clean and well appointed! There was nothing that we needed for our comfort that was not provided. The screened-in back patio was spacious and inviting. The twinkle lights gave it a magical glow at night. The living room was comfortable for us to spend time together as a family. We have this property on our list of favorites, and we can’t wait to come back!

Great stay for this USNA family

Beautiful home with plenty of sleeping space, 2 bathrooms, and wonderful large screened porch with a gardens to enjoy and spend time with family. Beach just a block away and a nice grocery store also close. The house was spotless and the owner very accessible and helpful with check in and out. Will definitely try and go here again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The screened porch is amazing, and we spent many hours out there. A nearby shopping area provides you with all necessities. The neighborhood is quiet and charming, and Annapolis is a short car ride away. Sharon, the host, is very friendly, kind, helpful and responsive. We highly recommend her place

Cape St. Clair Getaway

The house was just as advertised. The screened in patio was very nice. The house is a 2 minute walk from a playground and a small private community beach on the Chesapeake Bay. The house has excellent directions for driving into Annapolis and avoiding Route 50. We took a day trip to Quiet Waters State Park and rode our bikes and did some kayaking. It was about a 20 minute drive from the house.

Cape St. Claire / USNA

We had a great week here - esp during a global pandemic. The house was clean & the host even had Lysol, Chlorox, and Purel avail so we could make sure it was extra sanitized to our own liking. There is a dishwasher and washer/dryer too! Plenty of room for a family of 5 to social distance - even on the private beach (there is an attendant who monitors entry which I really liked). We did have to share the warm waters with a few jellyfish though so beware :) When you return to the house, you can wash off the sand in their outdoor shower. We enjoyed morning jogs (go to the left as you step out the front door) and evening walks (go to the right to check on the Oyster Nursery). The house was close to the Naval Academy & the activity of downtown Annapolis, which was the purpose of our stay. We hope to be back sooner than later!

Hi
I'm Sharon, Owner of the Bay Cottage in Annapolis. I absolutely love this town and the community where my house is located in a wonderful family neighborhood; across the street from the Chesapeake Bay, and within walking distance to kayak, crab, fish or canoe on the Little Magothy.

When I'm not tending my bay house outdoor flowers garden, yard and bird feeders, I am the owner of a Internet Travel Company and and I enjoy having guests at my home from families coming in for the Naval Academy and Boat Show Events. Welcome all and I hope you find the Bay Cottage a comforting stay; a Home away from Home.

What makes this property unique

Close enough to Historic Downtown Annapolis and the USNA....... the house is steps away from our private beach community and quiet walking and biking baths; local grocer and mini strip mall within 1 1/2 miles away.
