About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Waterfront Cabin Retreat

Cozy, comfy, and completely charming, this waterfront escape is the perfect getaway from reality.

Step outside and you’re right on the water — at high tide, the waves kiss the bulkhead (perfect for kayaking or fishing with our two provided kayaks 🎣🚣), and at low tide, you’ve got a clamming and oyster digging paradise just steps away. Whether you’re hunting for your own fresh catch or just relaxing by the shore, the adventure is yours to choose.

Hungry or thirsty? You’re in the ideal location:
🍻 Local Boys Taproom is directly across the street, serving up 40+ local IPAs and more.
🍎 Local Boys Produce has your fresh fruits and snacks covered.
And if that’s not enough, we’ve got plenty more food and drink recommendations within walking distance — just ask!

As your hosts, we’re right next door and always happy to help — or give you the space to fully unplug. Your stay, your way.

We’d love to welcome you — book your getaway today and experience the magic for yourself!
Cheers!

It was a very nice newly remodeled place. We were able to see four bald eagles just outside the property on one occasion. The smaller bed is not the most comfortable. We missed not having a washer and dryer available, but we managed. There is a lot of road noise, but we were out sight seeing most of the time there. There were kayaks available to use, but we did not utilize them. It was a very remarkable difference of high tide and low tide in water level, which was very interesting. Thanks for letting us use your guest home. It was a lovely stay.

Wow if we could give 10 we would beat place we have ever stayed at! Aaron and Cassidy are so nice! My boys and husband fell in love between the clamming right outside the cabin and the kayaks for the boys. I enjoyed the sunsets every night and the mornings walking the shoreline and looking for shells to all to your table plate collection! We will be back for sure !!!!

Helpful hints

4 retired healthcare providers, kayaking, paddle board, eating and drinking wine. Would be helpful to have the house #’s on the house, holes next to driveway made it challenging unloading kayaks.

Amazing vacation

Oh my, where to begin! Our time spent at the property was awesome! The place is beautiful and in like new condition! Everything needed was on location. Paddle boarding in the small cove was perfect. The location right on the water made access very easy. For those with a higher skill level, access to bigger water was just a few paddles away! The hosts were great people! Very nice and accommodating! Everything from eats and entertainment are all nearby! Best view of the Harbor Fourth of July Fireworks Show was amazing! We will definitely vacation here again!

Comfy cabin

We rented, and as an after thought, asked if it was ok to have family and friends come for dinner. Owners were gracious and said yes. We had room, inside and out on lawn chairs, for10. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, plates etc. Parking can be iffy but we were aware its a small cabin. Owners allowed on guest to park at their home. Bed is very comfy. Huge shower. A/C was great. House is quiet. Cabin is on an inlet so when tide is out lots of shells to explore. (Be careful as back in the day it was typical to toss stuff so there are nails and glass. But just pay attention and you will be fine! ) We enjoyed a very restful weekend. Close to grocery stores and beaches. Look forward to returning.

Exceeded my expectations

I used this space for quiet work and relaxation. It did both exceedingly well. The hosts were great and even allowed me to use their Kayaks and Paddle Boards during breaks. The place is larger than. Hotel suite with an arguably better view than most and a much better experience. I was steps away from the water! It looks like it was recently remodeled as everything is brand new inside and out. I would stay here again in a heart beat. Thank you guys.

Great little house!

I had the most wonderful stay at this charming little cabin by the water! The recent renovation was evident in every detail, creating a cozy and modern atmosphere. The hosts were incredibly accommodating, and the thoughtful touch of fresh flowers greeted us upon arrival, making us feel right at home. The cabin was stocked with everything we could possibly need, and the convenient location allowed us to easily explore the surrounding areas. Our time there was absolutely fantastic - I can't wait to return!
