October 2026 5.00We absolutely loved our stay at Sunrise Suite. Everything was like in the description and the photos, and even more beautiful! All the additional amenities like kayaking and hot tub were so relaxing as well, in the most spectacular quiet and peaceful setting! Shawn is the nicest and most reponsive host! We really hope to be back sometime in the near future and we can wholeheartedly recommend her place!

September 2026 4.00The Sunrise Suite was very clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable, and well appointed . The view was fabulous with walls of windows and the shades provided good privacy when needed. The location is down a quiet drive, and the setting is peaceful and relaxing. Shawn is very friendly and responsive to questions, and the process from booking to check out was very easy. There are many wonderful outdoor amenities on the property but at the time of our stay, the maintenance of the outdoor space was somewhat neglected. The extent of bird droppings on the dock made it unsanitary to walk on/use the ladder, and the lawn was way overgrown. The problem on the dock was reported upon our arrival , but it was very disappointing that it was not cleaned off until two days later, the afternoon on our last day. Had the lawn been manicured and the dock cleaned, it would’ve made for much more enjoyable use of that beautiful outdoor space during our stay.

September 2026 5.00We had a very relaxing three nights at Shawns. We can't wait to come back and stay again. It was very easy to find. Plenty of parking. We loved sitting out on the porch to watch the water. I enjoyed walking to Black Market Bakers to get coffee and yummy breakfast treats. The bed was very comfortable.

August 2026 5.00This is an absolutely beautiful house in a stunning location. I stayed in the Sunrise Suite and it was even better than I had expected. The views are to die for, the bed is super comfy, and the bath is fabulous. I did not meet Shawn in person, but she was super nice and I hope to meet her the next time I book the Sunrise Suite. Oh, the kayaking is fun. You can stay on the creek or cross over to the Chesapeake Bay.

July 2026 5.00Shawn’s place is a slice of heaven for anyone in need of solitude and serenity! From the moment I arrived, I immediately felt at ease! Shawn was warm and kind and I loved being greeted by my other furry host Winnie too. The property with a private pier and beautifully manicured garden and lawn boasts lots of outdoor seating to enjoy views of the bay. Once inside my suite, the furnishings, amazing bathroom with soaking tub, and attached balcony to enjoy the waterfront views took my breath away! The two days I spent in my comfy suite gave me the downtime to sleep, watch a few shows on Netflix, and enjoy my meals ands cups of coffee without ever needing to leave the space. Shawn’s suite was well equipped with everything any guest would need—- towels, robes, toiletries, candles, coffee pods, condiments, plates, and cookware should anyone want to prepare a meal. I loved the proximity to the nearby grocery store and local Sushi restaurant I checked out! My stay was beyond restorative!

July 2026 5.00I was in the Baltimore area for my daughter as she attended a class at JH’s summer program. I wanted a place to relax, find quiet and peace, and this was a perfect fit! Such a beautiful place. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to experience all I had hoped I would!

Chesapeake Paradise is a hidden gem with more open space and tranquility than other crowded neighborhoods. We're conveniently located less than 45 minutes from Washington DC, Baltimore, and Alexandria.
Our western shore location allows you to avoid the Chesapeake Bay Bridge traffic, and we offer free parking on-site for all our guests.
Only a short drive to Deale, MD for groceries, dining, fishing, and water activities. Nearby sailing destinations and the historic Annapolis are also just a scenic drive away.
Whether it’s kayaking, fishing, or swimming in summer, or cozying up by the fire with indoor games and movies in winter, there’s always something to enjoy at Chesapeake Paradise.
The Chesapeake Paradise House is next door to the Cottage, offering additional space for larger groups. We also have a charming Camper and Carriage House for a unique “glamping” experience.
Named by Travel + Leisure as the “most wished for” BnB in Maryland, Chesapeake Paradise offers an unforgettable retreat experience with both daytime excitement and peaceful nights under the stars.
