Waterfront, cozy cottage with private pool on 27 acres of privacy

Located on a private 27 acre estate is nestled a mere 200 feet from the banks of the Choptank River. Whether you have had a full day of shopping and antiquing in nearby Easton, Oxford, or St. Michaels or are tired from a day of golf at the country club less than five miles from the home, or just lazing away the day on your private secluded beach the sounds of the river lapping on the shoreline will gently massage your worries away as you sleep.
This century old estate offers our guests exclusive privacy unlike your typical beachgoers. Plan however to have plenty of visitors during your stay. Horns Point is abundant with wildlife. Families of deer tend to the fallen fruits in our orchard, while restless squirrels scurry collecting nuts for their long winters nap. The American bald eagles fly high above their osprey relatives, all looking for a snack to feed their brood. Venture out for an early morning walk or run on this deserted dead end back road and you may run into our masked neighbors as they make their way back to their daytime burrow or amazed by the aerobatic maneuvers of the flying Delmarva fox squirrels, or follow the rattata sound until you reach the location of a pileated woodpecker. Every morning you can witness the aerobatic maneuvers of our duck squadron as they do an early morning flyby, or the ballet performance of a flock of Canadian geese or Great Blue Herons.

A lovely cottage with amazing hosts!
We came for the Ironman 140.6 and we lucked out finding this lovely cottage! It was the perfect location, the property was beautful, and the house was very clean and had everything we needed. Dave and Cindy were so kind and helpful! They welcomed us to the property, gave us restaurant recommendations, let us pick some figs, and were very helpful when I left something behind. We would love to stay again!

Get away, very quiet!
An outstanding get away with wife and dog to see some great sights and relax. Plus, Dave and Cindy are the best hosts! We went to Oxford, Saint Michaels, Ocean City boardwalk, Blackwater wildlife refuge, Harriet Tubman museum and lots of fresh seafood. Enjoyed the pool, sunrises and sunsets. Dave and Cindy will ensure you enjoy your stay and help by providing ideas to explore the area. Thanks for a great week!

Beautiful place! Would stay again
We had a beautiful long weekend stay at the property. Absolutely beautiful, quiet location on the Choptank River, just as advertised. The hosts were very friendly and respected privacy. Very clean and comfortable house with absolutely beautiful pool with views to the river across the yard. A nice day trip nearby is to visit St Michael’s MD, about 40 mins - sailboat rides and the outstanding Chesapeake Bay Maritime Miseum. And good seafood places on the water in nearby Cambridge.

Lovely!
My 3 year old daughter and I visited the cottage for a weekend and had a great time! The property is beautiful and great for exploring. We enjoyed time in the pool as well as by the lake building sand castles. The owners Cindy and Dave are friendly and communicative. Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable time! We will certainly be back!
