Gorgeous, serene, luxurious, and comfortable!!
We had the best time at this gorgeous property to celebrate a 70th birthday. With 6 adults and 2 kids, we had plenty of room to be comfortable. Everything is clean, well functioning, and beautiful! There are so many nice personal touches that you don’t need to worry about a thing. For example, heated toilets, outlets everywhere, supplies, a well stocked kitchen, games, lovely linens and towels. Of course saving the best for last, the view!! The sunsets are incredible over the water. Sitting out back looking out at the water was a dream. Thank you!!

Perfect family getaway
In the words of my 7 year old, "This is the most beautiful house we've ever stayed." This place was immaculate. Every detail was carefully considered, including a bell on the back doors leading to the pool area, which I really appreciated as a mom of small children. The heated toilet seats, warm bathroom floors, and a spacious shower (big enough for the whole family, though you may not want to share—haha!) added to the luxury. The furniture was incredibly comfortable, the views were stunning, and the host’s communication was always prompt and friendly. We will definitely be returning!

Fabulous stay!
My family stayed here for three nights and only wish we could have stayed longer. They have thought of everything! Many, many details throughout the house, smart-home features, well-stocked kitchen, upscale fixtures, and everything was super clean. Beautiful sunsets (and rabbits!) from the back deck. Great communication from the host as well. Will definitely be staying here again

Everything is brand new. The outside is the best part. Extra large deck and the dock were where we spent our time crabbing, playing games and listening to music. We swam in the bay and the pool. So many choices.

The outside of this property is very deceptive. It looks like a little old rambler but the inside is spectacular. It's bright, spacious and modern with comfortable and attractive furniture. The appliances are new and the view as you walk in is beautiful. The pool is a real plus. We had a great time swimming and playing in it. Unfortunately, the Chesapeake has plenty of jellyfish so we couldn't swim off the dock but we brought kayaks and there are good kayak routes from the house. The longer creek paddle is to the south. Straight ahead is up the river towards the bay but it was a little rougher going that way. All in all, a really fun place to stay.

We really enjoyed this house! Great for multiple families!
We stayed here as two families for thanksgiving. The kids (ages 6-15) loved the upstairs. So cozy and the game room was great for family movie night. The kitchen was perfect for all of our cooking. Lots of counter space, drink fridge really helped give extra space in main fridge, kitchen is very well stocked with pots, bakeware, crockpot, blender, and plenty of dinnerware/silverware. The backyard, dock, patio, and awesome view of the sunsets was our afternoon/evening entertainment. We went into town one afternoon, but otherwise just hung at the house and it's a GREAT house for just relaxing. Mindy was very communicative and promptly answered the handful of random questions I had prior and during our arrival. If we stay in this area again, we would absolutely stay here!

Lovely Home and Location
This was a wonderful property with plenty of room for our group of 8 to stay and socialize. There was an abundance of storage for groceries we brought which was much appreciated. The view from the back is spectacular. We wished we'd allowed more time to just enjoy the backyard and the view. There's plenty to see and do in the area. There were an abundance of small amenities--labeled light switches, night lights, heated floor in the main bath, that made the stay more pleasant and easier.

Our book club of 8 women stayed for a 4 day weekend and we where WOWED by the property. The kitchen was well stocked and beautiful, the bathrooms where all updated and even had heated toilet seats and in the main bath heated floors. The main bath rivals a 5 star hotel bath! The view on the water was beautiful and we were a short 12 minute drive from sightseeing, groceries and gas. Would definitely stay here again.

We had such a wonderful long weekend at this beautifully renovated home. The sunsets were spectacular, the kitchen was incredibly well-stocked with utensils and cookware, and there were thoughtful and luxurious amenities throughout. The kids enjoyed the yard and board games and loved the charming bedroom upstairs. Mindy was an excellent host and easy to reach. Emily’s Produce is just 5 minutes away and has everything you might need to stock your fridge. We definitely hope to come back again!

We loved staying at Almost Heaven. It was right on the water in a quiet & peaceful neighborhood. The house had everything we needed & more: The children loved the upstairs loft area. We only had 2 suggestions and they are minor. Please add some hooks or areas to hang bath towels. We also would have loved a ladder on the pier. It would have been easier to get the children on & off the pier. We hope we can stay again.

Incredible house, yard, and location
This was the perfect place for me and my group of friends to meet up for the weekend. The house was spacious, clean, and well-stocked. There were plenty of beds to fit everyone and great TVs for watching soccer and golf. The yard was amazing. We fit full games of whiffle ball and touch football into the huge space. The nearby River Marsh golf course (~10 min away) was awesome. And to cap things off, we even managed to catch a few crabs off the dock out back. I highly recommend this place for any getaways with family or friends!

Perfect Family Getaway
The house was amazing! Plenty of space inside & out to for our whole family to be together & even spend some quiet time away from everyone when we needed to. The huge back yard hosted many wiffle ball & corn hole tournaments as well as easy access to the water for “friendly” fishing tournaments amongst the family! We also were able to go right into the water from the yard for us to use our kayaks & paddle boards. We couldn’t ask for a better weekend & are already planning our next visit!

Beautiful home and amazing views!
Wow! Mindy truly thought of everything with this beautiful home. We stayed with four adults and 6 children and there was more than enough space, both for sleeping and relaxing. The views from the giant windows were amazing and our kids enjoyed exploring the dock and big backyard. The beds were comfy, every room had a tv, bathrooms were all updated and extremely clean (and heated toilets! Who knew in 90 degree heat/humidity those would still be wonderful?!), every light switch was labeled and the kitchen was stocked with basic needs. We highly recommend this home, easy drives to places such as Oxford and downtown Cambridge. Next time we definitely plan on bringing fishing polls and kayaks! Do not miss this home!

A Perfect Getaway for the Whole Family
Our stay at this property was exceptional and exceeded expectations. It provided an ideal vacation spot for all our family. The house was fully renovated, complete with high-end appliances and tasteful furnishings, that were both stylish and comfortable. The attention to detail was evident, and we found the kitchen to be well-equipped with all the cookware and silverware we needed for all our culinary needs. The extraordinary backyard was our favorite. It was a large space that allowed the kids to run around and play various games, with a nice grill BBQ'ing against the bay's beautiful backdrop. Games and explorations were thoroughly enjoyed by the children. A standout feature was the pier that offered us a unique crabbing experience. The host provided crab pots, which was a thoughtful touch, allowing us to go crabbing each day with both the adults and kids. The house's layout catered to all generations. Main floor bedrooms were ideal for the grandparents, while the upstairs offered a fun and cozy place for the kids. The host's excellent communication and helpful recommendations only enhanced our experience. They were responsive from booking through to departure, showcasing an accommodating nature that added to our stay. This property was remarkable. It offered a fun and comfortable experience, creating great memories for every family member. We would definitely love to come back! Highly recommended!

Great "Girls" Getaway
3 women of a certain age spent 4 days in this wonderful house. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in Mindy -- she is FABULOUS to work with. The 3 generously sized bedrooms downstairs all had really comfortable beds (we didn't try to sleep in the upstairs bunk room) and 3 full baths were perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed and the sunset views were to die for. Having stayed in VRBO properties all over the world, I'd rate this house with the best. We'll definitely be back!

A small piece of heaven in Cambridge
This property looked amazing on VRBO, so we booked it for my family to celebrate my dads 60th birthday and let me say, we ALL had the best time! My parents enjoyed the first floor bedroom, huge shower and heated toilet seats, with view of the dock and water from the living room or kitchen - they didn’t miss an ounce of fun! The kids ages 4-12 enjoyed fishing day and night along with the boat ramp where we launched the kayak (and when the adults were tired) the kids could still use the little scoop nets and splash their feet around. You can see the entire yard from the kitchen and living room. The yard is so big we played baseball on only half of it! There are so many beautiful outdoor seats, a table, fireplace. It was hard to have any plans with how beautiful and peaceful the yard was! This house clearly has been newly renovated and maintain to be immaculate. Everything worked, and had the latest and greatest appliances. Even the light switches were labeled for easy use! Our host very graciously let us check in an hour earlier and had clear and quick communication! They have everything you would need from griddles, crock pots, coffee maker etc! My sister enjoyed the complimentary wine that was left for us as well! The home is 11 minutes from the town, and we ate at the same amazing place 2 of our 3 nights! Carmella’s Cucina has the best pizza and Italian food around (take out or dine in). We would come back for this food alone! Rise up for breakfast/coffee and RAR for a beer we’re great - all within 10-15 minutes from the house so you’re not wasting time driving around during vacation! We absolutely love supporting small local businesses and Cambridge didn’t disappoint! As we head home, I’m already planning out next vacation to this beautiful Cambridge home! I would 11/10 recommend this to any group, any ages, any occasion! One of the best we’ve ever had!
