This is a truly lovely home, a gracious host, and on unbeatable view. I made the mistake of assuming because it was on the water that it had beach access. Not only does it not have beach access, there is a precipitous 60 foot drop to the beach. This is not a home for people with young children. That said, the beach is a short drive away and there are two beaches to choose from and at least two lakes. The community is lovely and we had a great time. Bring your own beach chairs and your own hangers for the closets. There is nowhere to store your clothes if you don’t use the master bedroom. The area is great and there’s plenty to do on Solomons Island and St. Mary’s city. We probably won’t stay here again because it’s a little pricey, given the location and the lack of amenities, but if you are a stay at home kind of vacationer or if this is going to be a family reunion, it’s a beautiful, comfortable home.
