The house is worn and needs work. There is a serious ant/bug infestation that was evident immediately upon our arrival. There is a sign posted in the kitchen that warns against leaving any food on countertops.
The deck is grayed, rickety and splintered and has loose hails/screws.
A vine has overgrown the stairs leading down from the deck, making walking them more difficult than they need to be.
The linens are old and pilled, there are few hand towels, no wash cloths. Many of the window blinds are broken, the basement game room chairs don’t work. There is no longer a dining table in the kitchen; that was missed.
The kitchen itself was well stocked, the crab traps were great fun. I’m trying to find positives. It is peaceful.
It’s sad really, the house has so much more potential but seriously needs attention. An exterminator at a minimum.

Owner’s Response: “Hi Patrick, thank you for your feedback. We aim to provide a comfortable stay for all our guests. The presence of a few bugs and the condition of the deck were due to the recent flooding from heavy rains. We've already hired a contractor, and the deck will be refinished in October after the busy season. Please note that our rural location means bugs can be common after it rains so we encourage keeping doors and windows closed. We always provide fresh linens and plenty of washcloths, but if more are needed, we would have been happy to assist if you'd contacted us. We are aware that one set of blinds was damaged recently – while they still work, they now just need manual adjustment. While we regret our home was not up to your expectations, we’re happy to share that our most recent guests reported no issues. We truly go above and beyond for our guests and are confident that future guests will have a wonderful stay!”
Our family of 11 stayed at Rivers Edge for a family vacation all together in one place. We really enjoyed our time there! Having a dock on the river was fun for our nature lovers. We could use the backyard to play cornhole together. The location was nice for checking out areas around the Chesapeake Bay and taking a ferry to Tangier Island for a day excursion. We had plenty of space and having 3.5 bathrooms made it nice with so many of us. Some of us had very little cell service but the wifi helped us not feel completely remote. We appreciated that it was dog friendly, as well! Overall we had a great time and it was perfect for our needs!

This place was fantastic for our family vacation. Our 6 kids, 3 grandkids, 2 elderly moms, and 2 dogs really had a blast. It was the right blend of entertainment and downtime. It also allowed you to really be able to just sit back and enjoy family time and recharge the mechanism.
The morning view with a few cups of coffee on the deck really helped to start the day. The house is spread out enough to be able to find a quiet spot for a bit, or for everyone to gather and hang out and enjoy the GKids being able to just be kids. The yard was big enough for us to play Cornhole, KanJam, and even have a baby pool for the GKids to sit in and enjoy. Unfortunately we were not able to swim in the river (Sloop Creek) because of the Jelly Fish (June-July), but we were able to fish and cool off when needed with the little baby pool tube we brought or stepping inside for a game of pool, darts, or XBox.
This house comes with a gas grill/griddle combo that was used every day. It was clean and perfect for everything we cooked for both breakfast and dinner for 13 of us. The kitchen and grill were fully stocked with everything you need from utensils to pots/pans and cutting boards. We ended up adding a small fold up table in the kitchen for all of our snacks. We put it between the wine opening table and the back sliding door to form an L between the 2 tables.
Fishing from the dock did not produce as much as we hoped for, but we were able to cast the lines out, let the GKids fish some and we

Fishing from the dock did not produce as much as we hoped for, but we were able to cast the lines out, let the GKids fish some and we did catch one good size Eel and a lot of crabs. We did not use the crab pots, but there are some there to use.
The wind at night was perfect for keeping the bugs away, and watching the sunset over the next door neighbors corn field was great. Occasionally you will get some deer coming by, and maybe even a stray dog named Percy. If you want him to leave, say Percy go home, he obeys pretty good.
Thanks Eric for all of your answers and being readily available to reach, we had a blast!!
My family of 9 full of ages from 3-45 was constantly entertained at this home, we loved it!
