Just a 60-second stroll from the semi-private beach where the open water meets the shore, this coastal retreat offers the perfect balance of nature, comfort, and family-friendly fun. Whether you're chasing outdoor adventure or simply craving quiet mornings with water views, Bliss on the Bay delivers an experience as calming as the breeze and as lively as your travel crew needs it to be. This newly remodeled, professionally designed split-level retreat is thoughtfully styled and packed with amenities. Every detail \~ from the furnishings to the layout \~ was curated with the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle and our ideal guest experience in mind. It sleeps up to 10 guests comfortably and includes four bedrooms: \- Main-level king suite with sitting area and work niche \- Upper-level king bedroom \- Upper-level full bedroom \- Bunk room with two full-over-full bunk beds You'll wake up to water views from multiple rooms and enjoy stunning Chesapeake Bay sunrises from both decks. Outdoor Bliss \~ You're steps away from a semi-private sandy beach — perfect for sunbathing, paddleboarding, and swimming in the endless open waters of the Bay. We provide beach chairs, an umbrella, towels, two kayaks, and two paddleboards for you to enjoy. Back at the house, you'll find a spacious yard with a firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs — the perfect spot to gather and roast marshmallows under the stars. Challenge your crew to a game of ping pong, cornhole, or giant Jenga, or enjoy a meal on the outdoor dining table that cleverly converts into a shuffleboard and mini bowling setup. Need a moment of calm? Roll out a yoga mat on the deck, relax on the tree swing, or listen to the wind chimes while perched on the peaceful bench under the shade of our favorite tree. Indoor Fun \~ Rain or shine, there's always something to do. Our game room features a pool table and retro arcade machines (hello, Ms. Pac-Man and Centipede!) for hours of nostalgia-packed fun. We also stock board games, puzzles, and books for both kids and adults. Smart TVs, high-speed Wi-Fi, and cozy gathering spaces throughout the home make it easy to settle in and unwind. The Area \~ Bliss on the Bay is located in the quiet and charming town of Scotland, MD — just around an hour and forty-five minutes hours from Washington, D.C., but it feels like a world away. One mile up the road, you’ll find Point Lookout State Park, a beautiful historic area with multiple beaches (including a dog beach!), hiking trails, a Civil War museum, and some of the best crabbing, birdwatching, and kayaking in the region. Looking to get on the water? You can kayak or paddleboard right from our beach, or launch out and head down the Bay. Nearby shops offer fresh steamed crabs if you don’t feel like catching your own!

The kitchen has everything you could need and the house is stocked with several different supplies, toys, games and extras for your enjoyment.

The property was very clean and has everything you could possibly need. We played pool, ping pong, Ms PAC-man. We went for walks, spent time by the water. It was perfect. We were there in the fall so we couldn’t enjoy the kayak and paddle board. We’ll have to go back! The host has excellent communication. I couldn’t have asked for more from this property! ##### mary S.

The subject says it all. We only had a few days but made the most of our stay. Communication with the owner was impeccable. The house was super clean and had everything we needed to make our stay exceed expectations. Location may not be for everyone but for us it was perfect as we wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of the northeast. If you and your family and probably one other family want to get away for a secluded warm weather vacation within waking distance to a semi private beach look no further. We will definitely be back. Bliss on the bay nailed it. ##### Mark C.

Our family was in the area for an event for our daughter. This was the perfect retreat for us. The home has been meticulously updated and it is fabulous! Everyone had space to separate for down time, but there was also great space to gather together for meals and spending time together. The kitchen is well stocked making meal prep easy. The sunrise over the water was gorgeous and I only wish we were here in the warmer months to enjoy all of the outdoor space and outdoor toys the home offers. Trish is an amazing host! Her communication and responsiveness is 5 stars. Extra care is given to make sure you have guides to help you during your stay answering things from tips for the house, the area, and places to eat, and she quickly responds to any question you may have. We were given some flexibility for check-in/check-out, because she had the ability to offer that to us at the time we were staying. This small thing was such a huge gesture for us and was greatly appreciated. Looking forward to getting to stay here again! ##### Janell C.

We booked the house 1 year out from the nearby wedding we were attending. We needed a certain amount of accommodations and her space fit the bill in all aspects. The living space was great! The arcade game and pool table kept the teens busy between trips to the semi private beach and the wedding venue. It was insanely hot and the AC got a great workout but we were very comfortable. Kitchen is well appointed and the single/full pot coffee maker was perfect for full pot mornings and single cup afternoon pick me ups. Beds were very comfortable, rooms a great size. The beach chairs and umbrella were very handy for our trips to the beach as well as the wagon to haul everything there. Loved that we could sit outside in the evening and not get bitten by bugs, appreciated that the yard was treated for mosquitoes! We had 1 teen 2 preteens and 4 adults and we all had enough space that we weren't stepping on each other. A well thought out space! Thanks for being a great host! ##### Lucia C. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### C W. 5 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Labor Day weekend stay This was a really great property to stay at. We have stayed at multiple different houses in this area and this by far was the cleanest best decorated and most comfortable we have ever stayed in. The host is really dedicated to making this day very comfortable and interesting. The house is well stocked with soap, shampoo, and kitchen essentials. The host also provided K cup coffee pods and tea/sweetener. The house is great for a relaxing evening indoors with a pool table, board games, and also a classic arcade set up! The home was very well decorated with a modern look and had 4 very large 60” TVs. Very strong/fast internet. The house has kayaks and paddle boards in great condition, as well as cornhole and floaty pool toys. A big side deck is a great spot for enjoying the fresh air. There’s plenty of space for the kids to run around. It is really only a one minute walk to a nice beach with calm waters (good for kids to swim) and few other people. Usually in the morning, we were the only ones on the beach. In the late afternoon other families would show up, but the beach was plenty large for people to spread out and have their space. Check-in and checkout process was a cinch. The host was in contact quickly when we needed her with helpful tips. She even helped us and accommodating us for a special situation, for which we will be forever grateful! The host is someone who really enjoys helping guests have an unforgettable vacation. ##### C W.
