We used this property for our wedding weekend. My in-laws stayed here and we utilized the property for groomsmen the day of the wedding. The owner was communicative and helpful! Everyone enjoyed this place, especially my son who spent hours outside exploring.

Quick Family Getaway

We had an amazing time! The barn was immaculate with so much attention to detail, and the beach was paradise. The kids spent hours paddle boarding, kayaking, and taking the little boat out. It was calm and shallow so very safe for kiddos. We are so thankful to have enjoyed this space together as a family!

Great Place

Great place, great host. The place was as advertised. Though we didn't get the opportunity to enjoy the beach and toys as my wife was there to do Ironman Maryland the view and sunsets were awesome. It was very quiet and we enjoyed watching the wildlife. Lee was very responsive to our texts and is a great guy. Highly recommend the place.

Vacation

The place was very clean and accommodating to all our needs. We loved the location on the water and enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards and chairs set out on the beach for our use. Lee was very friendly and quick to answer any questions we had in regards to his property and he suggested a couple of great restaurants that were close by. We will definitely rent A Little Slice Of Heaven again.

Exactly what we wanted....no better way to vacay

Clean and well decorated....within driving distance of anything/anyplace we wanted. Water views, wildlife, kayaks, astounding sunsets, an enormous comfy sofa and a deep bathtub...I mean what else is there? The host was polite, informative and rightly takes pride in the lodgings he's created.

The perfect getaway on the Choptank River

We had a perfect long weekend at this property and wouldn’t hesitate to return. They’ve tended to every detail, including extra comforters, flavors for coffee they generously provide (regular AND decaf!), and every kitchen item we needed during our visit. The water view is peaceful, and the heron that landed several times just outside of the glass door on Sunday morning sent us off with grace. Many thanks!

A Perfect Getaway

We had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful waterfront property for two nights, and it was a perfect getaway! The private beach offered a serene and exclusive spot to unwind. We loved spending our days crabbing, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. One of the highlights was sitting back and relaxing while watching the stunning sunsets—it was truly breathtaking. Overall, this property provided everything we needed for a memorable and enjoyable stay. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful and activity-filled retreat!

Cold but fun

You can never be too sure about Maryland weather. It was chilly but we were able to use the kayak and riding in the small waterway right by the house was lots of fun.

Amazing Vacation!

Great vacation house for my family of kids ranging from newborn through 8 years old. Everything was new, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our time kayaking, paddle boarding and playing in the sand at the beautiful private beach. Lee was a great host! Responsive and available to answer any questions. He went above and beyond giving the kids a great time riding on his golf cart.

Lovely weekend!

The lodge is beautiful decorated in a farmhouse style. The property is new, very clean, and has all the basics you'll need. We loved every single detail! Outside, the kayaks and paddleboards are ready to use. We enjoyed drinking coffee in the patio and viewing the beautiful sunsets. Thanks for the welcoming bottle of wine... very thoughtful!

Relaxing Getaway

This place was all it was described to be! Lee was very helpful and friendly! The patio was a great place to sit and sip coffee in the morning. The view from the beach is gorgeous! We watched a storm come in and a beautiful sunset at the same time. Also toured the Choptank lighthouse, rode the ferry and biked around the old town of Oxford. Definitely recommend this place! Also recommend the Suicide Bridge Restaurant and the Red Roost Restaurant which are within 30-40 minutes.

Wonderful Retreat

Communication with the property owner was excellent. He answered all our questions very promptly. The property was right on the water with great views. The building was very nice and we had everything we needed. The small bedroom is small and could use a window but it worked out for our 14 y/o daughter. The master bedroom was wonderful as was the kitchen, dining room, and living room. The hosts were excellent and came to our aid when we needed something. Overall we were very impressed with our stay and would visit again!!!!

Relaxation amidst nature

The place is really a little slice of heaven. It is so peaceful and soul fulfilling. Sitting by the covered porch at the break of dawn, drinking hot tea and watching the birds fly and some diving to the pond in front of the porch for food is so enjoyable. I even spotted 2 Eagles gliding in front of my eyes. Sitting by the beach and watching the beautiful sunset is another of my favorites. The kids enjoyed kayaking and paddle boating along the serene waters of Choptank river. The house is clean and pretty. The host is very helpful and answers questions quickly. I will definitely come back. I returned home post vacation feeling rested and happy.

Great weekend on the eastern shore

Property is new, clean, and worked perfectly for our family. We loved that when the heat of the day was too much we could birdwatch from the couch. With the kayaks and Adirondack chairs waiting for us on the beach it was so easy. (Not words usually used for a weekend trip with two young kids)
