Waterfront House with Fantastic Views & Private Beach


USA/Maryland/Cobb Island Vacation Rental


4 bedroom, 2 bath vacation home sleeps 10 (2 queen, 1 full, 1 queen size futon, 1 full size futon, 1 twin)


Come and enjoy your vacation / holiday at our 4 bedroom, 2 bath Waterfront Home on Cobb Island in Southern Maryland, a one hour drive from the Washington Beltway.

Cobb Island is a little known waterfront community famous for its very relaxed and quiet atmosphere with fabulous Chesapeake Bay seafood restaurants nearby. Our house is recently renovated, newly furnished with modern baths, comfortable beds and a well-equipped gourmet kitchen with dishwasher, ice maker, and microwave. The house is central air-conditioned and has Cable TV.

You will truly feel like you are on a ship overlooking a vast body of water; a view that is constantly changing either due to weather or by the large variety of boats and birds. The house itself has yesteryear charm but with today's modern conveniences. It has a private sandy beach for swimming, a large dock and a broad vista of the scenic Potomac River. You will wake up to beautiful sunrises. Perfect for that laidback, relaxing vacation your family has been contemplating.

This is the place where special memories are made-
Imagine sipping wine or your morning coffee and watching the ospreys, the herons and an assortment of other birds diving for their next feast into the Potomac River or watching the large variety of boats travel for commerce or pleasure up and down the river. Or waking up in the morning to the sun rising over the river with spectacular colors of the sky that inspires anyone to paint. Or spending countless hours fishing or crabbing off the pier. Or sit on the deck over the water and enjoying a crab feast or painting of shells by the children

You can enjoy swimming, kayaking, bicycling, fishing, crabbing, boating, walks, bird watching, and stargazing. We provide 4 kayaks, 6 bicycles, fishing poles and crab traps for your use. If you have never kayaked before, plan on it this summer. Its easy to learn and fun. You can rent Motor boats at the local marina. 3 miles to the highly rated Swan Point Golf course.

Our guests have made so many wonderful comments to us about their vacation at our home, but the common theme that everyone talks about is that their vacation was good for their soul. It was a special place that they were able to totally relax, enjoy family/friends and nature at its best. It is will great pride that I invite you to stay at our special, magical home.

Guest Comment
"Hi Ed, We all thoroughly enjoyed our week on Cobb Island. highlights included the kitchen, which was very nicely laid out and well-equipped, and the quiet atmosphere of the island. Jim and I particularly enjoyed walking a loop around the island each morning admiring the eclectic lawn ornaments! You have a very nice collection of games and the children spent several hours each day playing Monopoly - when they weren't swimming or sailing. The only suggestion is to have a ladder from the dock leading down to the water. The list you sent was very informative. We went to Captain John's for dinner one night and enjoyed it. I'm not sure we would return to Cobb Island but that's mostly because we all live so far away; but, yes, I would certainly recommend it to friends who were looking for a vacation home on the east coast. Thanks for sharing your home with us! Elise -Elise WInkler, Boulder, Co July 2003"
