The property is exactly how it's pictured except the pictures don't do the recent renovations justice. The tilework in the bathrooms, the outside decking and hardscape, and the wood floors throughout were absolutely beautiful. The house was stocked with towels, linens, and kitchenware. We just needed to go to the grocery store and we were set! KJ even had it decorated for the holidays.
We enjoyed watching wildlife from the windows in the mornings and taking advantage of ALL of the games in the rec room in the afternoons.
KJ was a great host. He checked in with us without being intrusive and he made check-in/check-out easier than a beach rental.

Quite:
This riparian home sits in a mature neighborhood along the headwaters of a large creek. Neither car nor boat noise is obtrusive.
Secluded:
Large trees on the property, and throughout the neighborhood, in addition to the natural topography of the area provided uninterrupted privacy.
Outdoor Comfort:
The deeply overhung wrap around porch and generous seating enabled hours of reading and lounging for our party of 5. The double hammock and hexagonal picnic table also enjoy shade from the tree canopy. There is a park bench on the pier and foldable chairs available for even more seating.
Indoor Comfort:
A new 3-piece suite in the living room, along with a ceiling fan and flat screen, rendered evening entertainments a delight. The kitchen has EVERYTHING - full stop! The bedrooms are cozy with a ceiling fan in the primary. The bathrooms, like the kitchen, have updated tiles, fixtures, etc. Bedding and towels are all new and soft.
Activities:
Three kayaks & life vest, fishing polls, pier, corn hole, pin ball, and arcade games were a real hit with our crowd. All implements are clean and in good working order. We also enjoyed evening constitutionals in the neighborhood.
The Host:
KJ is welcoming and kind. It is obvious that he takes great pride in this listing. The house and environs are all well appointed and maintained. We have stayed in many VRBO listings in the past and can honestly say that this is one of, if not the, best.

Lovely home in a relaxing location on a quiet cove, filled with Blue Herons, Eagles, Deer, and Fish jumping are just what the Dr. would order!

The pictures do not do this home justice! It’s so much better. Every detail inside is tasteful and understated. We came to visit Solomon’s Island and hit Oysterfest, but found ourselves at home more than anticipated… dropping a line in the water, taking out the kayaks, sitting on the porch, playing pinball, eating crabs. And most of all, the host is amazing. KJ was responsive and went above and beyond with little extras that made our stay that much more special. I can’t wait to invent a reason to go back!

The place is awesome. Everything that you need to have a nice relaxing time with the family. The game room downstairs was a huge plus for the kids. So many things to do at the place and in the area. The place is secluded with many wildlife friends and critters. We would definitely recommend for great family time together.

This property was exactly as described and worked great for the group we had traveling. KJ has done a great job with this property to make it very comfortable and welcoming. We enjoyed our time on the patio and wish we would have have been able to have another day or two to enjoy even more that the cove has to offer.

This is a beautiful part of the world. I came down with friends to fish in the Chesapeake. We not only had great fishing, the accommodations were wonderful. There was a birdfeeder and we must’ve seen 15 species of birds including one beautiful one I’ve never seen before, a summer Tanager

We stayed in Ivy Cove for four nights and had a wonderful time. The house is so clean and well stocked, from the kitchen to the bathrooms to the outdoor gear. We loved the water views from almost the entire house, and especially from the porch swings! We had four adults and two toddlers there for the weekend, and there was plenty of space for us all to have fun. The games and Wurlitzer in the basement were a huge hit for everyone too. We loved seeing so much wildlife around the entire weekend- fish, birds, a bald eagle, a heron, a fox, and more! It was also super convenient to get out to the grocery store, as well as to a nice playground and area attractions. KJ was incredibly responsive and helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed for a great vacation. We look forward to visiting again!

We loved our time at Ivy Cove! The cottage is super clean, the beds and furniture are really comfortable, the amenities are great and the view can’t be beat. You can tell a lot of love went into renovating and decorating the cottage. KJ was wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!
