Oasis by the Bay - Waterfront Heated Pool Hot Tub!

Summary:

Located only 5 miles from Annapolis, this newly updated, 3-story home with great views of the Chesapeake Bay is perfect for your next family getaway! It is located on an inlet of the lower Severn River which connects directly to the Chesapeake Bay.



Relax in the heated pool (open mid-end of April, will close Oct 28 approx) and the hot tub year round! Enjoy three levels of patio and balconies! The lower-level walk-out patio is home to the six-person hot tub, the second-level large deck opens from the living room with lounge chairs and dining for four, and the third-level large balcony opens from the primary bedroom with seating for two. The beautiful in-ground private pool is surrounded by comfortable lounge chairs. The green lawn ends with a cozy firepit area for evening S'mores and storytelling. Take advantage of the poolside built-in grill available for warm-weather barbecues with your loved ones.



The Space:

There are many areas to enjoy family time or sneak away to enjoy a book waterside. An extra-large waterside living room with a fireplace opens out to the large, main floor deck. The living room features large, comfy couches and digital projection TV for a comfy family movie night. A large rec room with a wet bar and seating opens to the waterside patio, where you can find the hot tub and grill, and venture out to the yard. On the lower level, the in-law suite has a cozy and warm sitting room. A great spot to hide with a good book - feel free to read historical novels from the homeowners' private library.



The spacious kitchen is complete with plenty of storage and fully equipped with amenities. You will never say 'there are too many cooks' in this kitchen! Granite countertops all around, ending at a large kitchen bar with stools plus a table and chairs for four. The open dining room with an extra-large table offers enough seating for your full family. Or you might as well dine alfresco on the back deck with a table and chairs seating for four. All in all, this home has stellar interior and exterior entertaining space for your family gatherings.

Other Things to Note:

To help ensure a smooth, secure, and enjoyable stay for all guests, please review the following important information before booking:

Check-In & Identity Verification Policy

All reservations require the primary guest (the booker) to complete a secure online check-in process prior to arrival. This includes:

-Uploading a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID

-Uploading a selfie to confirm identity

-Reviewing and signing our rental agreement

This process is similar to hotel check-in and is required because we do not typically have staff on site. Check-in instructions will only be provided once this process is complete.

If you would like to review the rental agreement before booking, please feel free to contact us.

In some cases, we may also request a security deposit and/or apply a damage waiver fee in accordance with booking channel policies.

* It typically takes ~1 hour to screen a guest after they book this property and could take several hours if we are busy before we are able to provide them with check-in information.

If you make a last-minute reservation, we ask you to please be patient and please do not expect to gain access to the property immediately.

Guest Count & Occupancy Policy

Each listing includes a maximum number of guests based on unit type and local regulations. Additional guests are welcome for an added nightly fee:

-4 & 5+ bedroom units: $50 per guest, per night after 8 or 10 guests, respectively

Please ensure your guest count is entered accurately at booking. We will confirm the number of guests after reservation. If the guest count changes, pricing may be adjusted accordingly. For safety and compliance purposes, exterior security cameras are used to verify occupancy. Unreported additional guests may result in additional charges.

Pet Policy

This is a pet-friendly property. While our cleaning team is thorough, guests with severe pet allergies should be aware that dogs, cats, or other animals may have stayed in the space previously.

Pet fees:

$30 per night, per pet

$150 per week, per pet

$300 per month, per pet

Pet fees are included in the accommodation rate as long as you choose the appropriate quantity of pets when completing a booking. We confirm this with all guests post booking confirmation.



This property has a heated pool which allows us to extend the operating season - we open the pool in late April and close it in late September. If you would like us to heat the pool for you, we will add a $100/day "heated pool use fee" to your bill to help defray the cost of doing so.



Local Reservation Policy

Reservations under 7 nights from guests residing in the local area may be subject to cancellation at our discretion. We handle exceptions on a case-by-case basis.

Early arrivals and late departures are not guaranteed and must be approved in advance. If approved, the following fees apply:

Special Request Policy

Requests for items such as pack-n-plays, high chairs, or other non-standard amenities should be submitted at least 7 days before check-in to ensure availability. Requests made closer to arrival will be accommodated if possible but cannot be guaranteed.
