Peaceful, quiet waterfront property with only neighbors to share the beach with. Clean insides with plenty of rooms. Outside needs upkeep and maintenance. Tim responded to our complaints and sent his team to cleanup the place. He was very helpful and even offered to cancel & refund. We decided to stay since this is one weekend our boys and us reserve. Missing amenities like bodywash and trash bags lessened the experience. But, overall the location and privacy made our family time enjoyable enough.

We had a great time staying at Tim’s Maryland home. Tim even allowed us to stay after some issues with a hurricane and was very accommodating to our needs even though there was some damage due to the hurricane. We would love to return thank you!

We had an amazing and relaxing week-was exactly what we were looking for! Weather was in our favor, so combined with the access to the water and kayaks it was perfect. And, OMG-the views! Would love to be able to visit again!

Overall the house was nice and the view and location on the water is fantastic. The upstairs offers an incredible view over the bay and the deck is amazing. The house is thoughtfully done and very well stocked for a vacation. My kids loved the sand, the rocks, fishing, and running in the bay. It really is a beautiful house and view. I do have one glaring issue that likely would lead me to look elsewhere next time - the hot tub. We specifically were looking for a house with a hot tub bc we knew it would be cold. The hot tub was gross. It smelled and had a grimy film on and inside it, visible everywhere (like a goo). I reached out to Tim and he was quick and responsive and a house manager came out that day and pumped out all the old water, put in new water, and wiped the hot tub down. The problem was, the grime was still inside the pumps, the filter, and in the crevices - and it still smelled. We decided not to use it at all. Aside from the hot tub would recommend!
