Historical Beauty

The history of this beautiful home is deeply intertwined with USNA which was very interesting for our family. The home itself is beautiful and well equipped with great bedding and towels, coffee, tons of drinkware....really everything we needed for a long weekend. Although we visited at a chilly time of year, the upstairs deck looks lovely! If you are looking to be close to DTA and USNA and enjoy a great night sleep in wonderful sheets, book this house!

Wonderful property in a great old Annapolis setting

The property is perfectly situated in old Annapolis for easy access to everything -- restaurants, cafes, waterfront, USNA and shops. The property owner (manager) is responsive and wonderfully helpful too. Thank you.

Excellent house in close proximity to the Academy and two shops and restaurants

We will absolutely stay here again. The hosts were accommodating, communicated, well, and keep a nice home. The property is bigger than it looks in pictures. The short walk to downtown is easy, Annapolis is charming.

Great location with parking

We recently stayed at this lovely home and it was right behind Paca Gardens where our daughter got married. The house was so conveniently located and had two parking spaces. It made it much easier to enjoy the weekend events having a home like this to stay in. The host also left flowers for the bride which was so thoughtful.

Annapolis Visit to attend funeral at USNA

The home is lovely and the owners provide many amenities. The location was outstanding in terms of proximity to the Academy which was where we spent most of our time. The two parking spaces are a treasure and were ample. Would absolutely rent this space again. They went abbe and beyond!

We stayed at King George Rose over the New Year. The location couldn't have been better and the home is spectacular. Exactly as described. Even decorated for the holidays. What a nice touch. Would love to come back during warming weather to enjoy the outside patio.

Thank you so much! I also found Yvonne so accommodating during the planning process!! would definitely stay there again!!

Just Fabulous

We had a wonderful stay while attending a special wedding at the Naval Academy. Yvonne made things so easy. The location was perfect being right next to the Academy and still peaceful. Everything was clean and comfortable. Great for families, couples just having fun, and gathering etc. The Kitchen was wonderful! I am so appreciative that Yvonne shared their beautiful home with us.

Most excellent stay!

This house is full of history and yet is updated in a perfect way. Full of charm. Could not have found a better location. Right next to the academy and the Paca house where we had our sons wedding. Walking distance to everything!! Comfortable beds, equipped kitchen- had the groomsmen for breakfast- love the sun on the front porch in the mornings. Wonderful host who was very responsive. Clear directions for check in and out! Oh , and the 2 parking spaces?? Priceless!!!! Would love to stay here again.

Perfect Palace for our Perfect Wedding!

Our USNA wedding was like a fairytale with a perfect ending, and this home became the perfect setting for all the pre and post planning, laughing, celebrating and resting. Perfectly located immediately across from Gate 2 and just 2 minutes from the main gate of the Academy, our home away from home became the ideal meeting spot. Two upstairs balconies with seating provided intimate areas for small group gatherings, and the main level wrap around porch was perfect for the noisy youth who reminisced about their experiences across the street. The main floor is elegantly decorated for guests who can congregate in two different sitting rooms. I loved the huge kitchen which, of course, became the favorite meeting space. The large dining table and the island with individual bench seats allowed comfortable seating where we displayed our buffet spread. The bonus room - with 3 twins and double (or was it a queen?) was so perfect for our large family. Our groom and his siblings got to share memories and laughter the night before the wedding without disturbing the parents and grandparents comfortably nestled in the beautiful 2nd floor rooms. A big plus was the frequent communication with the owners who responded quickly to all my emails and questions and concerns. If we are ever fortunate enough to return to Annapolis, I hope to return to 171 King George. It was more than charming - also immaculately clean, fully functional, well designed, perfectly located, beautifully decorated, and comfortably cozy. We give our stay a unanimous 5 stars!

Historic welcoming home

We stayed at this property during Plebe Parent Weekend. It is the perfect location for walking access to USNA. Our Plebe was able to relax during her leave. The house itself included interesting family history in relation to USNA. The master suite was perfect—comfortable bed, large bath and washer and dryer. We didn’t fill the home but enjoyed the night views of the USNA chapel and statehouse as well as the areas for some private decompression. We made the most of our time together with time to spare for reporting back to the yard!

A wonderful stay near USNA

This location was perfect for us. We took our son to USNA, along with family, and this house was very convenient to the yard and downtown Annapolis. House was very well stocked and the beds were cozy. It was very easy to communicate with the host who went above and beyond and helped us secure lawn chairs for a picnic. Highly recommend and will stay here again.
