I was visiting the Eastern Shore with my parents for a week getaway. Christina's place served our needs well. It was a great place to come back to after exploring for the day. Thanks Christina for the great stay!

What a beautiful home in a quaint area! The host was welcoming and helpful. Great local recommendations, tidy and comfortable accommodations and tastefully decorated for the fall season! This was a birthday trip for my husband and they even left a thoughtful card and treats in the fridge. We would gladly stay here again! Make sure to go outside in the evening and look up. The stars are lovely from Deal Island!
