The Dollhouse is a fully updated two story centrally located 1870s historic house with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. The house was completely restored during 2016-2020. The house has a front porch as well as screened rear porch. There are TVs in living room (55") and master bedroom. Popular local outdoor activities include fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, biking or simply relaxing. This is a wonderful property centrally located in St Michaels. Great restaurants and shops within blocks of the house!
Had a great, relaxing stay at this property with a friend who came to MD for a short visit. The location is close to all of St Michaels restaurants & shops, and not far from the waterfront or the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. The property was very quaint and clean. Would recommend for anyone looking for a quiet getaway.
This was our 2nd time staying at this property! It is a perfect location and house for a girls weekend with my mother and daughter! Great communication with the owner! We will definitely rent again!
We enjoyed our stay in this cottage. We understood it would be small, so that was not a surprise as some have mentioned in other reviews. It is well equipped and comfortable.
Very enjoyable stay. Nicely updated kitchen with new washer and dryer. Wifi excellent. Built in 1900 and furnished with antique pieces. Nice screened porch is a good place to leave your bikes. Close to Maritime Museum and restaurants.
This was a comfortable home, and a nice location. We were staying mostly for business, so didnât do much in town, but the main restaurant and shopping areas are two short blocks away. We did use the nearby nature trail to walk our dogs. The only concerns others might have with the house, and the reason for four stars instead of five, were: minimal kitchen equipment (few pots/pans etc.), steep narrow stairs to the second floor, and low water pressure in the shower. That said, none of these things would prevent us from staying here again, and frankly we might try to next year.
I recently stayed here for a wedding and loved it. I am small and had a bed to myself. I was sharing the house with another couple and they are taller ⊠the ceilings are low, the bathrooms small, and the bedrooms pretty cozy for two ⊠it worked for us but beware that it really is small in every way. That said, it is an ideal location, clean, and has all the basics. I loved the screened in porch and the sweet yard. I would definitely go back.
Great location, close to down town St. Michaels! Very cute historic house.
Pool is a town/community pool .7 miles away.
As descirbed in other reviewes:
Pillows are flat/old, suggest to bring your own pillows. The AC on the ground floor is great, but limited on the second floor.
Everything was as expected and nice. The beds were noisy though. Just rolling over created a lot of noise. I think that could be solved with a better frame and a rug under the frame. Everything else was fine.
Very comfortable small bungalow house. Very clean. Looks exactly as advertised. Communication with the owner was very smooth. Instructions very clear. St. Michaels is a charming little harbor town. Lots of fund shops and restaurants. Warning, the stairs to the bedrooms is VERY narrow. Do not expect to carry large suitcases or other items up the stairs. Do not expect any extra niceties. Could use some new pillows. But overall, really enjoyed the stay.
The best part of this rental is the location and the back porch. The house will meet your needs, but not much more. It may just be my personal preference, but the very low ceilings seemed oppressive to me and made the house dark. The shower did not have enough pressure to get the shampoo out of my hair and the bathroom is extremely small. I hit my head every time I dropped something off of the tiny sink. Also none of the downstairs. windows lock. The house will meet your needs. The beds are comfortable, the TV is nice, the kitchen is minimally stocked, the AC worked well. I do wish someone would have given a more accurate review of the house. Tom is a good host and the location is perfect. We rented bikes and paddle boards and kayaks that we had delivered to the house or the lake for us. All in all we had a lovely time in St Michaels.
This is a great property in an ideal location. We loved the porch and the fancy w/d unit. However, the mattresses are worn and the shower water pressure is weak. Explanation of pet protocol in the ad would have been helpful.
They property, location and amenities were great. The shower water pressure was lacking which made it hard to clean the soap and shampoo off. I did not receive the check in email but the host was very responsive and it did not impact is getting in. I would recomend adding in complimentary soap, shampoo and laundry soap.
Beautiful small fully updated historic house located on quiet street but a short walk to almost everything in Town. House features a front porch as well as a rear screened porch overlooking a large yard.
