Perfect Annapolis Location!
This house is quintessential Annapolis and in the heart of everything in the city. The house is old, but is well kept and has a lot of rooms for all your guest gatherings. Susan was great to communicate with and always available when needed!

35th USNA Reunion
What an amazing place! Perfect in every way. We had a large group coming in for reunion, and didn’t want a bunch of hotel rooms… we wanted to hang out and share “sea stories”, and be close to the action. This place was amazing!!!! We are already planning another trip … and this will be our Annapolis Go To!

Lovely historic home!
Our family loved the tri-level home with plenty of space for everyone. Loved the proximity to USNA as we were staying for Plebe Parent Weekend. It was so nice to be around the corner from our Midshipmen! Owner was quick to respond with questions. We hope to stay here again when we visit with our extended family.

very cool historic house in great location!
unique historic property makes you feel right at home in historic downtown Annapolis. the property is well-maintained and very clean. House is walking distance to everything you want to see in downtown Annapolis, including a short walk over the Eastport drawbridge where you can visit “restaurant row” along Severn Avenue. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location for USNA event
This house perfectly fit our needs to stay near USNA and downtown. Out first priority was to find someplace within walking distance of USNA gate as we didn't want to have to take shuttle buses to and from the USNA yard. It is a very nice old home that easily fit our group of eight people. I will certainly consider staying here again for future trips to Annapolis.

Annapolis Staycation
We loved our stay at this charm filled home. It was clean, well stocked and the location was unbelievable. The property was located in the heart of it all, on a beautiful street, steps away from the Naval Academy, historic sites, restaurants, shops and water taxi. Thank you Susan for accommodating us, we were so happy to have found Heart of Historic District, the memories we made there with our family members will be cherished forever.

Great location
The property was located so close to the Naval Academy which made it easy to walk to the various activities during commissioning week. The drawback to parking in a garage made the loading and unloading a bit challenging because our midshipmen ( now Marine officers) had to bring his 4 years of collecting stuff to the location. Overall, the space and location were suitable.

Location, Location, Location!
Great communication with Susan and the property location in relation to the downtown waterfront is hard to beat. There were some minor issues that we chose not to bring to the owner’s attention since we were busy and on the go - plus it was easy enough to find a workable solution. Just to be clear, we are confident that Susan would have addressed any and all issues brought to her attention. Our family is already talking about a future visit to Annapolis!

Perfect Alternative to Hotels for a large group
Simultaneous boat show + 4 reunions + football weekend seriously limited convenient and affordable hotel options in town. Susan's house was a better choice in any case. Perfect for our 9-adult get together. Fully equipped kitchen was perfect. Thank you, Susan, for a great weekend with friends. We will visit again soon!

Had 10 people stay here while we were in town for a wedding. Beautiful home, and much more spacious than the pictures would let on. Can't beat the location, either. Susan was an incredibly accommodating and responsive host. Great place to stay when visiting Annapolis.

Excellent location and house!
Six of us came here for our annual ladies weekend. The location and size of the house was perfect. Parking and unloading is a little bit of a challenge, but once you do that and park in the nearby parking garage, you can walk everywhere!! The kitchen is fully equipped for the night we cooked. I would highly recommend this rental and we will definitely stay here again when in the area.

Ideal location for wedding at the Pacu House
Ditto to all other glowing reviews. The only thing we were missing was a stovetop teapot. The oriximity to the Pacu House was one for which we were so grateful given our family wedding took place during a monsoon. The only hard thing is the nightmare of parking. We parked in the Gott St garage on weekdays and moved to the free on evenings and weekends Calvert st garage for the weekend. Loved the Potato cafe on state circle and the fox bookstore and coffeehouse on Maryland street. Don’t miss the downstairs of the bookstore. Thank you dove and ark for your hospitality!!
