About this property

240' Private Beachfront @Kent Island Love Point - Great for Large Groups

Spacious, comfortable vacation home located on Love Point, the northern tip of Kent Island, in the heart of the upper Chesapeake Bay. This beachfront property is adjacent to the former grounds of the historic Love Point Hotel grand resort, where well-to-do families once took steamboats from Baltimore piers to vacation in style (now Love Point State Park). On the coveted northeastern side of Kent Island, you have views of pleasure craft, fishing vessels, and an array of wildlife (including dolphins on occasion) – no commercial ship traffic/anchorage in view from here.

The Home: Large master suite w/private Jacuzzi and shower. Five bedrooms with a large 3rd floor dorm, sleeps 21-23 (options for up to 37). One full bedroom requires no stairs. Fully-equipped gourmet kitchen, a chef’s delight! Can seat 50 for dinner indoors in dining room, sun room, and two screened sun porches, all with beautiful views. Gorgeous living room with fireplace with heat exchange/blower.

The Property: The grounds are nearly four acres: high ground around the house & courtyard, 1/2 acre tidal pond and wetlands toward the shore, and 240 feet of sandy beachfront. Offshore jetties create a protected lagoon by the beach, providing safety for kids swimming and those learning to kayak or paddle board. There is outstanding bird watching from the sun room and from the northeast sun porch, 40 yards from the half-acre tidal pond on the grounds. The property is directly across the water from Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge. Bird watching is peak over morning coffee or at dusk, depending on the species. Spectacular sunrises over the water. Plenty of space to play and wander. Catch fish and crabs right from the property, and prepare a feast for the group.

The Location & Area: Ten minutes to the seafood restaurants, bars, marinas, and many other activities of Kent Narrows. It is right across the Bay Bridge from Annapolis and 40 miles to St. Michaels. Close to DC and Baltimore, it is only 60 miles from Springfield, VA. Coming across from the Western Shore, you will part with any shore traffic immediately, taking the first exit after the Bay Bridge. It seems like the other side of the world, though, once you arrive on the Island and you immediately feel your blood pressure drop.

As isolated as Love Point is, itself, there is a wide range of activities close by, especially water and nature activities. Or shop at nearby outlets. See “ATTRACTIONS”, “LEISURE & ACTIVITIES”, and “SPORTS & ADVENTURE ACTIVITIES” sections for detail.

Special Notes: Six kayaks and six paddle boards provided, with paddles and life jackets. Large grass field for group sporting activities or RV/boat/trailer parking (100’ x 50’). Four wedding venues on island.

Linens, towels, beach towels, basic toiletries provided. See the AMENITIES sections for many more details on this gem, and hints on the local area.

VRBO/Homeaway Story: Rented repeatedly from VRBO/Homeaway, arranging extended family & friend get-togethers at the shore, in the mountains, etc. Everyone kept asking me to go back to this property each year. Fell in love with it and bought it.

Perfect for group accommodations for Annapolis Boat Shows, U.S. Naval Academy Graduation, Ring Dance, and other events.

Great for group of families
We rented Hal's home for our annual "Friendsgiving" with several families. The kitchen had plenty of space and was well appointed with cooking gear to prepare a big meal. The kids loved running around outside, exploring the beach area and having s'mores around the fire pit. Hal is a great host - very responsive and helpful. Hope to come back next year!

Doesn’t get any better than Love Point Idlyll!
I have stayed at Love Point Idlyll three times and cannot wait to return! We have visited in the winter and have had a blast. It’s so beautiful. I can only imagine how great it must be in the warmer weather. We have not taken advantage of the kayaks, bikes and the private beach. The house itself is well stocked with all the essentials and lots of unexpected mew extras. It’s ideal for a larger group. Finally, Hal is a great host and very responsive. Highest rating possible zzz!

Great location for group stay
I stayed here with a group of 5 coworkers for a team-building week. The house was a great location as it had lots of spaces for us to spread out when needed, as well as come together for meals and discussions. It's a historic home with funky decor - not modern but very comfortable and has everything you need. The short walk to the private beach is unbeatable. Would definitely come back!

Best House Ever!!
We’ve been going to Annapolis for a church meeting every year since 2014. In the last three years a group of us have stayed together. This was by far the biggest group of 19 and it was our best stay ever. Hal is super responsive and nice. The kitchen was well stocked, house was so clean, water was hot and beds were comfortable. Perfect view of the sunrise each morning and the beach itself was phenomenal!! Even had some little creature swimming in the pond…not sure what it was but it was supper playful and fun to watch. Wish we would have had more time to enjoy the house and sit around a fire. Planning to travel up earlier next year Lord willing!

Family friendly waterfront getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Love Point Idyll. The large house had everything we needed for a long weekend with multiple families and our dogs! The private beach is a short walk from the house and shallow enough for young kids to enjoy and parents to relax. The kayaks & paddle boards were a hit with everyone. This quiet neighborhood is a hidden gem; close to amenities but tucked away with great views of the bay. Hal was also extremely responsive & informative throughout the booking process and a great host overall. Definitely would return again!

Not only is the island a great place to vacation but this particular house can’t be beat. Beautiful house. Well maintained. So many little extras! Hal also helped us find our second rental across the street. Having the whole family near each other was wonderful. We had a great experience!

Memorable Stay
For a family of 18 (10 adults & 8 children of varying ages) who love swimming, kayaking, fishing, crabbing, golfing, eating, playing games and just being together, this home checked all the boxes. Set in a quiet neighborhood just down the road from farm fields and vineyards with views from the house looking out over the water, the location is ideal. The wildlife (deer, foxes, eagles and osprey) was spectacular and the homeowner Hal was friendly, helpful and made sure we had everything we needed for a fun, wonderful and unforgettable family vacation.

FABULOUS Family-Vacation Location
Our multi-generational family had a wonderful week at Love Point Idyll. A quiet, world-away oasis. We spent the days outdoors, with lots of beach time on the lagoon. SO safe for the kids, and the older ones (ages 9,11, 13) were able to comfortably kayak, paddleboard and play in the water, catching little crabs. AWESOME bird watching (eagles and osprey!). Only 10 minutes away from grocery stores, coffee trucks, gas stations, and crab shacks. Spacious interior with well-equipped kitchen. Hal was great, responding to questions within a few minutes. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend this property enough!
It is hard to put into words just how extraordinary this property is and even more so the host, Hal. I held my wedding in the backyard and every single one of my guests raved about how amazing the house was and how well set up it is for parties of our size (45ppl). It is perfect for families as there is a ton of games and activities to keep kids busy and lots of different lounge areas so you never feel on top of each other. And it’s soooooo beautiful and tranquil. As for Hal. Wow. Honestly, the best house rental host I have ever had. He went above and beyond both ahead of time and during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed and more. It is clear he has hosted for a while because there are a lot of thoughtful touches in the house that really enhance guest experience (ex: xtra sunscreen and bug spray stocked down at the beach) . Overall, don’t think twice about booking this place. It is incredible! Thank you Hal for everything!

About the host

Hosted by Hal Frasch

Host profile image
Live an hour away from the property, in the Virginia DC suburbs. I fell in love with the Chesapeake Bay at the age of ten, close to the very spot where this property is.

Why they chose this property

Rented the place five times for our extended family for long weekends, and fell in love with the place. Used to go to the shore, the mountains, etc., but the extended family kept asking to come back to "the Love Point House".

Four acres of waterfront property on an island in the Chesapeake? It is a dream come true.

What makes this property unique

For Washington DC, Baltimore, and Philadelphia area folks, it is so easy to get here. Yet once you drive four miles through farmland to the tip of the island and into this small community, it is suddenly like another world.
