Phenomenal!!!!!!

I could go on for hours about all the aspects of this property. Let me say this. If you are staying in the area, stay here!! This place is incredible. The house was clean and spacious. There is a foosball table, and other games provided. A laundry room for your convenience. The house is right on the water with a dock so you can walk right out to the water. We were bummed that we didn't read the description well enough to realize the pool wasn't open yet. Everything you need is only minutes away! The house, the water, the communication with the owners, the hospitality was impeccable. We will definitely stay here again next time we in the area. Our family absolutely loved this property. Add this property to your list!!

An Exquisite Sanctuary on South River

This was the third year we have spent a mid-October long weekend at La Maison with our sons and their friends. It is always lovely--the water, the herons, the light. Also everything you could want, nothing you don't need--bocce, kayaks, fire pit, outside and inside dining for family and guests. Just the loveliest break from the world, yet close to everything you could possibly need.

The best two weeks

I LOVE this property! The fact it had an amazing pool with privacy and in a quiet neighborhood was amazing. My favorite part were the views on the water and being able to see the sunset and the boats go by, the owners are very responsive and it’s only 15 minutes from town

About the host

Hosted by Gopika Spaenle

Host profile image
I am a native Marylander and together with my French husband, we have 2 young daughters. We live and work in the Washington DC area, but love to get away when we can for travel and short excursions. Annapolis' historic charm, proximity to the DC area and access to water sports and activities is ideal for us!

Why they chose this property

Amazing water views from all around the house with ample space to lounge, easy access to water activities and a gorgeous pool - something for everyone!

What makes this property unique

The water views, its tranquil location and beautiful pool! Great proximity to Washington, DC as well as to Annapolis. We also have prepared this house for remote work for adults and children alike - with high-speed Internet (1 GB) and several desks.
