8/10
This is a tough review. Every aspect of the stay was first rate, with the exception of road noise most times of the day (not much at night) because the house is located perhaps 100 yards from Rt. 33, which at that location has 40-55 mph traffic, some of it pretty noisy. The house itself is well-insulated from most of the noise, but we are sensitive to noise in an otherwise idyllic location, and the ongoing background car noise detracted from enjoyment of the attractive outdoor areas. The good news is that the house itself is perfect for a small group: cozy and spotless; very well furnished; well equipped (although we did no cooking ourselves); very comfortable (including the beds); excellent HVAC, bathrooms, showers and hot water; and only a short ride into St. Michaels. We appreciated the use of comfortable and attractive furnishings, with a sense of style, which are often lacking in many short term rentals. The property manager was very responsive -- responses to inquiries often arrived within 2 or 3 minutes -- but VRBO's forced use of email for messaging was cumbersome. The backyard is a well-kept large grassy area from the house to Harris Creek, and great for kids, dogs, and bird watching. It would be lovely for adults hanging out, especially in mornings and evenings, but for the car noise issue. If you are not bothered by a hum of traffic the background, you'll enjoy the place without reservation. Even with that issue, the pluses may well rate a return in the future.
