Great Location

Great location, close to down town St. Michaels! Very cute historic house. Pool is a town/community pool .7 miles away. As descirbed in other reviewes: Pillows are flat/old, suggest to bring your own pillows. The AC on the ground floor is great, but limited on the second floor.

Charming cottage close to town.

Very enjoyable stay. Nicely updated kitchen with new washer and dryer. Wifi excellent. Built in 1900 and furnished with antique pieces. Nice screened porch is a good place to leave your bikes. Close to Maritime Museum and restaurants.

Cozy, charming getaway

I brought my parents who are seniors and we found exactly what others have said. The location is excellent to walk to the main street for shopping and restaurants. The home is comfortable and nicely restored and decorated. The steps upstairs are pretty narrow because of the age of the house but we had no issues getting our bags upstairs. Bring your own pillow(s)! The ones provided are flat and the beds are noisy, but again, its due to age. They're antiques and it just adds to the charm. I would definitely stay here again and in fact, would love to bring my husband next time for a long weekend.

Cute

Everything was as expected and nice. The beds were noisy though. Just rolling over created a lot of noise. I think that could be solved with a better frame and a rug under the frame. Everything else was fine.

Perfect weekend getaway

We stayed for a weekend of house hunting on the Eastern shore. It was a great “home base” and the location was terrific for parking the car after a long day and strolling St Michael’s by foot. The shower water pressure is weak, and the staircase was a bit narrow/steep for my almost 80 year old mom. The pillows need an upgrade. Clean, cute, good communication with owner and excellent location.

We enjoyed our stay in this cottage. We understood it would be small, so that was not a surprise as some have mentioned in other reviews. It is well equipped and comfortable.

New Years Weekend Getaway

Very comfortable small bungalow house. Very clean. Looks exactly as advertised. Communication with the owner was very smooth. Instructions very clear. St. Michaels is a charming little harbor town. Lots of fund shops and restaurants. Warning, the stairs to the bedrooms is VERY narrow. Do not expect to carry large suitcases or other items up the stairs. Do not expect any extra niceties. Could use some new pillows. But overall, really enjoyed the stay.

Girls weekend

It ways just me and my 5 year old and a friend from work for the weekend. Perfect little spot for a girls weekend. Walking distance to everything. We only got in the car once and that was to visit The Inn at Cabin Perry. The rest of the time we walked to everything. The house had everything we needed for a great stay.

Perfect Location

The Dollhouse is the quintessential St. Michaels rental. Connor St is the perfect location, away from the hustle and bustle yet close to the shops and restaurants. Having Blue Crab Coffee right behind the house was a plus for our takeaway breakfasts. Loved the screened in porch on the back of the house which was perfect for our morning coffee and evening cocktails.

Will meet your needs

The best part of this rental is the location and the back porch. The house will meet your needs, but not much more. It may just be my personal preference, but the very low ceilings seemed oppressive to me and made the house dark. The shower did not have enough pressure to get the shampoo out of my hair and the bathroom is extremely small. I hit my head every time I dropped something off of the tiny sink. Also none of the downstairs. windows lock. The house will meet your needs. The beds are comfortable, the TV is nice, the kitchen is minimally stocked, the AC worked well. I do wish someone would have given a more accurate review of the house. Tom is a good host and the location is perfect. We rented bikes and paddle boards and kayaks that we had delivered to the house or the lake for us. All in all we had a lovely time in St Michaels.
