Cambridge House | Multi-Generational Waterfront Retreat with Pool!

4 Bedroom House in Cambridge

2026 will be our ninth year that we have invited guests to rent summer weeks at our home. We think it is a very special spot and hope you do too. Feel the stresses of your daily life melt away as you roll down the quarter mile driveway running past a 210 year old sycamore tree. When you spot the big red barn and swaying willows, you know you've arrived. Come unwind in a beautifully restored stone home with all of the modern amenities on 4 acres. When you step through the front door, you will be greeted by a panoramic view of Fishing Creek through a full expanse of floor to ceiling windows. Guests will especially enjoy the evening breeze out on the screened in porch. The great room encompasses a beautiful modern kitchen, custom cherry dining island, large family style dinner table and enough comfy couch seating for your whole group.
There are 2 bedrooms and one large bathroom on the ground level. The B&O Railroad Room has a queen bed. The Chesapeake Room features one king bed and a trundle bed with two twins.
Upstairs you'll make your way to two large complete suites with full baths, walk-in closets, and doors that close to the hallway. The Captain's Quarters has a king-sized bed. The Pineapple Room has a queen size bed. Each room upstairs has a roll-away twin bed available in the walk-in closet.
For those seeking outdoor adventure, there is plenty to do near or on the water. Sunbathe, fish or crab off of the new dock. Launch one of our kayaks, paddle boards, or your own watercraft from the gently sloped boat ramp. Area boat, jet ski, or bicycle rental is available from local vendors.
Beat the heat of summer in the saltwater swimming pool nestled next to the barn, featuring a wide tanning shelf with umbrella.
Play croquet, cornhole, or your favorite outdoor activity on the large open field in the side yard. Rainy days are not a problem. Some guests will choose to play pool, ping pong, air hockey, or darts in the expansive game room in the lower level of the barn, while others will choose a book, board game, puzzle or video from our collection for all ages.
Cook out on our gas grill, sip on a drink, then gather around the fire pit for an evening of smore's, star gazing, and storytelling. Firewood supplied.
Many of our guests venture off property to enjoy a uniquely Cambridge experience such as a visit to the Hyatt Cambridge Resort, the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, The Underground Railroad Museum honoring Cambridge native, Harriet Tubman, or tasting freshly caught crab, oysters and fish in the restaurants in town, or sipping a RAR micro-brew on Race Street.
As our guests, you will have total use of the property. We often use the summer months to travel and see family. When not away, we will be inhabiting the barn loft apartment. During that time we will keep as invisible as possible during your stay, unless you wish to chat, in which case we are happy to share our story and listen to yours!

Summary: This property is perfect for large families with children of all ages. First, the house is spacious, well appointed for cooking and having together time. We took turns preparing nearly all of our meals for the 10 of us during our week long stay and the kitchen has all of the necessities and so much more. The beds and linens were comfortable for resting well each night after our very busy days. The dock was in constant use by the fishermen in our group and we were even successful with the crab traps! The game room was a favorite of my grandsons who learned how to play pool and perfected their ping pong and cornhole skills. But the favorite spot by far was the beautiful salt water pool and pool patio where we spent considerable time every day. Sailors Retreat is a destination stay, you really wouldnt have to leave the beautifully landscaped property to enjoy a week in the eastern shore. We did however make several outings during our stay, Harriet Tubman historical sites, the nearby wildlife refuge, and a trip to Asseteague to play on the beach and see the wild ponies was a highlight. Cambridge has many cute shops and restaurants. Its also worth the drive to Oxford to get an ice cream at the Scottish Highland. Both the kiddos and the adults had fun painting a special rock so that a piece of their creativity is left behind in exchange for the great memories we have brought home with us. Thank you so much Rob and Gretchen for providing such a perfect place for family time.
