Perfect

I would definitely recommend this cottage! I was very impressed with cleanliness of this home. The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. We booked this home to attend my son’s graduation from the US Naval Academy. It was the perfect distance from the stadium. The beach was very relaxing and private. We hated to leave.

We stayed for 4 days and loved it. The cottage was tastefully done and immaculate! A short 5 walk to a private beach was a wonderful bonus. The beds were very comfortable and our hosts Winston and Carolyn were so accommodating. We would definitely go back!

Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway

We stayed here last year for a long weekend and loved it so much we came back for a full week this year! It's the perfect place to relax and de-stress -- quiet neighborhood, beautiful beach, comfortable house, wonderful hosts. We spent all day on the beach with our 4-year-old and enjoyed trying different local restaurants -- recommended by Winston and Carolyn -- in the evenings. This is a dream spot -- we will be back again!

Awesome cottage for Annapolis events

The Host was accommodating and easy to deal with on every way. The property easily accommodated 2 couples and literally is just a few steps from the local beach in a quaint and quiet neighborhood. Also an easy 5-10 minute drive to all local events and experiences around downtown Annapolis and the Naval Academy.

Great location, great accommodation, great hosts!

The Anchors was a wonderful accommodation for a mixed business & pleasure 8 day trip to Annapolis. The house was immaculate and very well-appointed all around (kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, linens & blankets, cleaning supplies - everything!). The location is fantastic - a charming, extremely quiet & friendly neighborhood close to downtown Annapolis, DC & Baltimore Airport. Winston and Carolyn are fantastic hosts - extremely attentive and quick to answer questions, as well as kind and friendly. Highly recommend The Anchors for a weekend getaway or week-long visit to the area.

Great neighborhood

Immaculate little place, loved the neighborhood, quiet diverse with homeowners, family rentals, young people old people ethnicity diverse. The beach for the little community on Chesapeake Bay is small but nice , gated, is open until midnight had plenty of room for family parties, has a small play ground and volleyball owners were in touch but not intrusive, can’t find a single thing to complain about.
