We hope you enjoy the Cambridge area and our home as much as we do!

Girl's Weekend
The place was perfect for our college friends reunion. Town was less than a 5 minute drive for restaurants and shopping, and we appreciated having the pool to escape the heat. There was plenty of room to lounge about and reminisce and play games. We loved our time here and Teri was very welcoming and easy to communicate with.

Perfect trip. Beautiful house and property
The house and property were absolutely amazing and we really appreciated all the extra amenities such as the candy dish, the water for the coffee maker and large array of kitchen items and spices. Very thoughtful and well prepared. Teri was helpful and kind and we had a great stay. Thanks so much!

Family vacation
We had a lovely family vacation at a beautiful home with everything we like. It was in a beautiful creek with wildlife, a wonderful pool, the canoes and dock. Very private and beautiful property with a garden. The game room was awesome! Beautiful pond area. Everything was well keep and clean, as the inside of the home. Very comfortable and clean!! Loved the tvs in all rooms, even though we didn’t need to use most of them! We enjoyed just sitting outside and gazing at our view. Thank you Teri, for having us!

Peaceful stay
Our family of four enjoyed a peaceful stay at Bare Necessities! The house was well stocked with everything we needed for a week on the Eastern Shore. Teri communicated throughout the process, which made preparing for the stay very easy! This house is in a wonderful location and a short ride to many different attractions, but we ended up spending most of our time enjoying the dock, creek, and pool at the house. We look forward to a return visit.

This property is immaculately kept and probably the most comfortable, charming, well-stocked property I’ve ever rented. Teri and Lauren clearly care deeply about it, and no wonder - it’s a little slice of quiet, peaceful heaven on the water. We will definitely be back!

Great Family Vacation
Myself, husband, 2 adult daughters, son in law and 5 yo grandson stayed for a week. We took our boat and enjoyed crabbing and fishing. Weather was a bit dreary but we still got to enjoy the pool and hot tub. House was very clean and had everything we needed, including games for the little one. The only time we left the house was to go to the grocery store. The family enjoyed it so much, we are hoping to go every year!

Fully stocked, fun filled vacation home
The owner stated make yourself at home and that was very easy to do. The house was clean and had everything you could need and more. Too many kitchen items to list and plenty of games for all ages. We spent most of our time in the pool and enjoying the many things to do outside. This home is in a convenient area for site seeing/exploring. It was a wonderful week spent with family and friends!!

Amazing place!
This is the 7th VRBO we have stayed at since covid started and it was by far the cleanest and most well-maintained. The house was amazing, the pool was pristine, and the views were perfection. We spent our days by the pool (the loungers and umbrellas were perfect) and just moved into the screen room for our meals. The binder left with local menus with handwritten notes on local restaurants was very appreciated. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Great family getaway!
We were looking for a break from our busy schedules and we definitely found it at Baer Necessities. Our stay was absolutely wonderful and accommodations were just perfect. The weather cooperated so we could have windows open with constant breezes through the house. We were all so able to cook some delicious meals in the well equipped kitchen. I really loved how the pool and dock were located perfectly to allow the kids to be at either location and still in my sight. We will definitely plan to return to enjoy the property and all that the Cambridge area has to offer. Thanks for having us Teri and Lauren! It was a pleasure to meet you at the end of our stay.

Best vacation property
The experience was phenomenal. Well maintained property with ample facilities. Amazing hosts. Communication with Teri was easy. We were given all details upfront. Check-in was very easy. Home was very neat. There were instructions on how to use all the facilities hence we did have to bother Teri. But Teri was very helpful and checked on us regularly to make sure everything was ok. Property is better in person compared to the listing photos. The area where the property is situated gives lot of privacy as it’s in the dead end of the road with creek behind and on one side of the house. The feel is like is you are far away from the urban areas but you are just 6 minutes away from the downtown. Downtown has good restaurants and coffee/breakfast places. All the places of interests is within 30 minutes. We spent some time in the downtown understating the rich history and visited the marina and the light house. Kid enjoyed the DVD collections and the music in the den. Pool and hot tub were well maintained with ample chairs and umbrellas around the pool. We spent most of the time in the pool. Kitchen has all the necessary utensils. Veranda is a great place to spend evening and morning time with view of the creek. It’s also a good place to have dinner. There is a game room in the garage with Ping-Pong and foosball tables. Overall it’s a great value package and relaxing place. The house is perfect for a fun filled family vacation. We will definitely recommend this place to our friends and plan to visit again.

The entire home and waterfront property is beautiful. We began relaxing immediately, watching the herons and osprey flying near the creek. The beds are very comfortable, and the family room has a great set up overlooking the water. We cannot wait to return to this lovely Cambridge home.

Wonderful location, lovely house, gorgeous views
Stayed for a weekend with friends and we all agreed the rental was one of the best we’ve stayed at. So clean, amazing views of the water and spring flowers, well equipped house. Was a chilly March weekend with some rain and lots of wind but we felt cozy inside looking out the giant windows at the river and changing weather. As the sun peeped out, walking down to dock or garden for fresh air was refreshing. Amazing relaxing and quiet. Would love to return in warmer weather to take advantage of the pool and water offerings :) Fantastic place!!

Lovely and spotless
This property was superb! The kitchen was by far the most well equipped I’ve ever seen, with many things I don’t have in my home (I was envious!). It was impeccably clean inside and out. We very much enjoyed the waterfront view. Since it was a really cold weekend in February, I could only imagine how nice the spacious yard, screened porch, and pool would be.

Why they chose this property

For years we crossed the Choptank River bridge and drove through Cambridge on our way to vacations in Ocean City and were intrigued by its quaintness. We spent a few long weekends exploring the area, decided to purchase a home, and found our property on Jenkins Creek. We've decided to share our home as a vacation property. We hope you enjoy our home and the Cambridge area as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Our home is located at the end of Jenkins Creek Road overlooking the water and only several minutes from downtown Cambridge with its unique shops and restaurants. Minimal local traffic make walking, jogging, and bike riding safe and pleasurable. The school and city park at the town end of Jenkins Creek Road (1 1/4 miles away) have tennis and basketball courts, play areas for kids, and views of the Choptank river. The Jerry Boyle Park at Great Marsh, with its public boat launch, fishing docks, and picnic areas is only about 2 miles away. Also, because of our location, you can explore the Cambridge area without the hassle of the beach traffic on Route 50.
