Our home is centrally located to all the water Bay Ridge has to offer. Our home is located just one house away from the Bay Ridge bluff where panoramic views of the Chesapeake Bay provide a backdrop for drinking coffee or cocktail while watching all the boating action taking place on the Bay. You’ll also be one block in either direction to 2 different sandy beaches on the Bay - Severn River beach and Mayo beach. Spend the day or evening at a beach bonfire and walk home on the community bike trails offset from the road. In addition to the Bay, you're also a short walk to Lake Ogleton and the Marina. At the marina there is basketball, pickleball, lake access and of course lots of boats! A one mile walk along the Chesapeake Bay/Bay Dr brings you to our hidden treasure: the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF), a nonprofit dedicate to the restoration and protection of this iconic natural resource. We’ve partnered with CBF to create open spaces and trails where you are free to nature walk the beautiful grounds in peace and serenity. Walk or bike the 3.5 mile perimeter of our community and take it all in: friendly neighbors, on-water activities, lemonade stands, or meditative benches with iconic views - Bay Ridge has a little bit of everything.

The location was perfect for walking, cycling, and running throughout the community while enjoying beautiful views of the Chesapeake Bay, Bay Bridge, sail and power boats, Osprey birds sunrise and sunset. The amenities are excellent, clean, and the spacious home layout is great for family gatherings and relaxing. Easy drive to downtown Annapolis and shopping. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive to any questions or needs we had prior to and during out stay. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you for great family memories! ##### Patricia H.
