Great Stay and Great People!
Truly loved the River Villa Apartment. Helen and Peter were kind folks who were great to chat with, especially right there on the dock. They have two lovely dogs which was a plus for my dog-loving family. The bedrooms were stunning by the way! And I know in the future, I will always consider Choptank River for a getaway.

Peaceful river retreat
Calm and comfortable apartment with private entrance and beautiful views of forest and river. I loved the quiet forest setting, easy access to the river (via private dock and free kayaks), and outdoor patio with firepit and grill. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well-stocked, and there are lots of thoughtful touches. he owners are kind and helpful. A good base for exploring the Eastern Shore or just hanging out along this beautiful river.

Very Nice Get-Away Close to DC
The property was very nice, fitting and relaxing for our group of three. We had to spend some time indoors given the weather and work obligations: it proved cozy, even adapted to remote working with two Zoom sessions in parallel. The place is filled with light on sunny days. I'd just put a little caveat on the size of the kichen/living-room and bathroom (which is accurately described in the listing anyway). The bedrooms are very large on the other hand. You're also sharing the place with the owners upstairs. But you know all that before booking. The outdoors are great with access to the Choptank river from a private dock. The owners provide kayaks and a canoe which we enjoyed very much. The property is also conveniently located between the Delaware beaches and the Eastern shore of the Chesapeake for those who want to tour the area in half-day trips or less. Lastly, and importantly, the owners are very nice. In those Covid times, it was not a good time to mingle, but you'll get the extra attention. In our case, we received the great favor of a very, very late check-out.

Wonderful stay at this riverfront apartment!
My family of 4 had a wonderful stay at Helen & Peter's apartment! It's a private apartment that occupies the lower level of the main house, but was built in a galley-style layout that makes it feel very spacious and gives every room an amazing view. Everything was clean, and there were many welcome touches like fresh milk, eggs, butter, English muffins, cookies, and flowers waiting for us upon arrival - lots of condiments too which came in very handy for cooking!! The owners recently rebuilt the dock and in doing so added a brand new floating dock which my kids (5 & 9 years old) LOVED cannonballing off of :) The water was just the right depth for swimming and playing - my 9 year old could stand fairly easily at all times of day, and at low tide the water closest to the dock drops closer to knee-height - a perfect splashpark! We all had a great time using the included kayaks (2 adult sized + 1 slightly smaller, perfect for the average pre-teen) every day of our stay. The river is very calm with lots of nooks and crannies to explore, and Peter's advice on the tidal patterns maximized the distance we were able to kayak with minimal effort! Also, the internet service was GREAT!! We weren't sure what to expect due to the rural location, but my son was able to attend his online summer classes with no problems whatsoever! So happy to have found this gem!!! :)

Great Get Away Location
Peter and Helen are gracious owners who make you feel right at home! This is a perfect spot to relax and soak up the wonderful scenery on or off the river. Having access to the dock and kayaks was key for two boys to stay active throughout the day. We didn't know how much our dog enjoyed the water until our recent visit. It's an easy short 2 hour trip from Chester County, PA - can't wait to return. L. Smith

Laura and her family truly enjoyed our special spot on the Eastern Shore of Maryland on the Choptank River. We very much love sharing the River House Waterfront Apartment and feel elated when our guests cherish our rural nature hideaway as much as we do. Looking forward to their return visit.

Beautiful experience!
Helen and Peter take pride in their rental! They make sure that everything is perfect for their guests! The extra touches such as the homemade cookies upon arrival to the breakfast foods waiting for you in the refrigerator make your stay perfect! Their rental provides you with the perfect setting to enjoy nature as well as the surrounding towns!

So wonderfully relaxing - lots to do or little to do
First, Helen & Peter are warm, welcoming people. Arrived, there were flowers (real) on the table, staples in the fridge, freshly baked cookies, it was a lovely 1st impression. The "apartment" was great for just the three of us, but the room our daughter stayed in had a lot of beds and was very roomy. Don't count on the internet all the time, but if you have Verizon, you can get it sporadically. The TV gets Netflix and other wired in channels, so if you must watch something, you can. But, go outside and take a look at the Choptank River. You can swim, canoe, kayak and even fish with a net. It's just peaceful. We went to St. Michaels our first day, went all the way to Tilghman Island and crossed the country's busiest drawbridge! The next day we went to Rehoboth, DE, so there were side trips one could make. It was the perfect get-a-way! Will be back!

Wonderful getaway location.
With large Windows you get the feeling that you're in nature but all the benefits of being in a Cozy home. Everything was clean neat and tidy accommodations were comfortable and we loved the chiminea. Helen and Peter could not do enough for us it was a great experience hope to return some day.

Special Get Away
Thank you Helen and Peter!!! We enjoyed our 5 night stay and great recommendations for the area. We were in town for the Golden Retriever National Specialty and it was great to have our own special place to relax after a busy day. It sure does beat a hotel room. :) Thank you also for the special treats for us and our boys. And special thanks to Sophia for sharing her home.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review and for staying at the River House Apartment at Moot Point Farm on the Choptank River. We very much enjoyed your visit and meeting your "boys" and learning of their success at the Golden Retriever National Speciality. We are so glad everyone enoyed the river and could relax at the River House after the field trials. We welcome you all back anytime you are heading our way again.

A perfect escape
This place was exactly what I was looking for. The apartment was clean, nicely designed, and fully stocked. The access to the Choptank was great! There are multiple kayaks and a canoe to use. We (dogs included) also enjoyed swimming in the river. The location on the eastern shore is also noteworthy. We had an easy hour and twenty minute drive to all the beaches and was then able to escape the craziness of the beach towns. I will definitely book it again.

Beautiful and Quiet Retreat in Denton
My husband and I, along with our two beagles and another friend, stayed here in 2015 and again in 2016 for the BikeMS ride in Easton. It's a nice and quiet location, and Helen and Peter couldn't be more accommodating! They even bake the most delicious cookies that are waiting for you upon your arrival! They also took the time to print and laminate information about the area, as well as places to go eat and things to do. If you are looking for a nice relaxing place to stay, (with the friendliest and most excellent hosts!)I would definitely recommend staying here!!
