Wonderful Cottage

The Blue Crab was a great place for us to stay at for two weeks. Its proximity to the Chesapeake Bay, restaurants and the North Beach boardwalk was fantastic. We visited downtown Annapolis and went to a ballgame at Camden Yards. The house had everything we needed for a wonderful stay.

Cute little cottage by the bay

This cottage is really great...cute, well-appointed, and located just the perfect walk distance to the North Beach Boardwalk. We enjoyed our stay, as did our pups, and slept so well too! Thanks for the use of the washer/dryer (so nice to have) and for the kitchen we everything we needed. We planned a laid back visit with day trips to Solomon's Island and Annapolis. We loved reading by the bay and boardwalk.

Quick visit

Used to live in the area and came back to town to visit friends. We've stayed at Danielle's property next door (the Lazy Crab) and loved it, and thought we'd give the Blue Crab a try. As we expected, the property was beautiful, clean, and well appointed. Easy walking distance to restaurants and the boardwalk, and having the fenced yard for the pup makes life so easy. Danielle is very responsive and easy to work with...we highly recommend both of her properties!

Blue Crab Beach Cottage

Danielle was a phenomenal host. She curated a beautiful home away from home experience and has thought of everything so you don’t have to! Walk to the boardwalk and get coffee and croissants in the morning, sun bathe on the beach in the afternoon and enjoy dinner on the deck in the gorgeous backyard or at one of the many nearby places to eat! I will be returning, the experience was magical!
