Just spent two nights at this house while attending our granddaughter's graduation. This house is wonderful. It is impeccably clean, very well appointed, with a well stocked kitchen. The welcome bottle of wine and cookies were a very nice touch. The beds are very comfortable and the well landscaped back yard is so peaceful and quiet. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent house and location - highly recommend

A group of 6 (3 adults and 3 children) stayed for 2 nights while visiting the Naval Academy. It was an easy walk to the stadium where shuttles brought us over, very convenient location. It is a quiet neighborhood which was nice and what we were looking for.The house itself was great, very clean, lots of space, comfortable beds, and had everything we needed and then some. Fully stocked kitchen, games, and my bathroom even had a shampoo/conditioner/bath gel setup that you often see in hotels.Highly recommend if you are visiting Annapolis!

Great house, location and hosts!

We have been staying in Annapolis for 2+ years now (son is at the Academy) and this was one of our favorite places so far! The house was great and the hosts were great communicators. Spotless house, and upon entering, having a gift bag with a bottle of wine and food to feed the Koi was a great touch! The Koi are certainly shy though! The neighborhood was great, close to the Stadium, Naval Bagels and really everything. Minutes to downtown Annapolis and a great house to come back to at the end of the day and relax on the screened in porch. We can't wait to stay there again.

Family reunion and USNA football game

This location is perfect for attending a Navy football game as it is within walking distance of the stadium. The house is modern, spotlessly clean and was well set up for our group of seven adults. We especially enjoyed the screened porch and the lovely back yard.

I can’t say enough about the owners

This is our 4th time staying at this house, we just love the layout and elbow room the ranch provides. Great location by the stadium, super convenient to everything. We had a travel delay and Kris and Doug bent over backwards to help us solve our issue, including recommending an auto shop to fix our car. Very easy to communicate with, very kind and understanding, very responsive. We’ve enjoyed renting from them for the last 3 Easters in Annapolis.
