2 Bedroom Cottage in Cambridge

Close to Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge and the Harriet Tubman Center, enjoy peaceful days at our secluded waterfront cottage on Church Creek. Two miles from a main road, and our closest neighbor is across a cove, our estate offers 50 acres of privacy and one of the best waterfront views on the Chesapeake. Relax, enjoy a view from every window and nature all around you. Excellent walking, swimming (in-ground pool-May 3 -Oct 1), great birding and bicycling. Launch your kayak from the backyard. Perfect private getaway!
The space
Plan your escape at Harwood's Choice, our 50-acre estate, a natural, peaceful, rustic setting with excellent views of Church Creek, with privacy and space. The cottage and main house sit on a five-acre parcel of yard and waterfront; there is quite a bit of distance between the two houses. The pool is located a short walk from the cottage. Our remaining 45 acres are wooded with lanes to walk. It is the perfect place for either a private weekend getaway or a long-term place to work virtually, as we now have streaming WiFi. Note that the owners do not live on the property but occasionally visit the main house for a few hours. We always check with our guests before planning a visit.
Newly renovated, gorgeous in-ground pool and deck with water views available for guests' exclusive use at their own risk (May- Sept). There are four lounge chairs and two umbrellas for relaxing and sunning on the pool deck.
Excellent for watching birds, deer, fox, wild turkeys, eagles, osprey, and just relaxing and enjoying the peace of nature and the water. Originally built as servants' quarters for the main house, Harwood Cottage overlooks a cove of Church Creek. Guests are welcome to wander and explore this peaceful place. Our place is so special to us that in 2006, we placed it in the Maryland Environmental Trust, which means that it will be conserved forever, and will never be subdivided.
Beautiful country lanes for walks and bird-watching. The perfect place to get away from it all.
We do not permit hunting on our property or fishing from our shoreline. You may not bring onto the property the carcass of a hunted animal.
We now have Starlink WiFi! Our measured speed is 277 MBPS, which is suitable for streaming.
This lovely cottage can sleep 2 couples, 2 singles, or a couple and a single. It has two bedrooms upstairs with nice views of our cove, each with a king bed; one of the beds is a California king. Both are memory foam mattresses. The bedrooms are nestled in a dormer, so one side has a sloping ceiling. Both bedrooms have quiet, wall-mounted mini-split HVAC units with remote controls. No more noisy window AC units!
Downstairs has a fully equipped kitchen with an island. Kitchen has a Keurig coffee service with k-cups. There is a microwave, glasstop electric stove and a small countertop dishwasher. Dishes, silverware, pots, pans, stock pot, cooking utensils and BBQ cooking tools are all supplied.
Kitchen has a side entrance door that leads to a small patio with a charcoal grill and table and chairs for al fresco dining. There is another patio with Adirondack chairs closer to the water's edge. Both patios are for the exclusive use of our guests (seasonal).
Dining room and living room each have a wall-mounted mini-split HVAC unit with remote control.
First floor bathroom has bathtub/shower combo; towels, wash clothes, soap, conditioner, lotion are provided.
Utility room has a SpeedQueen washer and dryer (with steam setting for removing wrinkles). Bug spray, laundry detergent, citronella candles, first-aid kit and fire extinguisher are provided.
Patio, chairs, and charcoal grill are located out the side door. Citronella candles supplied; please bring your own charcoal.
There are four chaise lounges and two umbrellas on the pool deck for poolside relaxing.
Bring your binoculars. We have quite an array of bird life including bald eagles, osprey, kingfishers, prairie warblers, bluebirds, cuckoos, great-horned owls, overwintering diving ducks, a family of red-headed woodpeckers, northern bob-white quail, and a fascinating Chuck-will's-widow whom we hear at night in the summertime.
No smoking or vaping anywhere in the house or outside- ANYWHERE.
Bring your kayak, canoe, or SUP and launch right behind the cottage into our cove and explore as far as you wish. Church Creek leads into Fishing Creek which leads to the Little Choptank River and then into the Chesapeake Bay.

Summary: This was one of the most beautiful spots I've seen. Kayaking was wonderful! Couch was very uncomfortable. And many maybe put off to find they must put everything in a box to keep away from rodents. And I just took my garbage home as we didn't have time to dump at an off site location on vacation. I would still book again as it was the most peaceful, charming and secluded place to truly relax!
