Property Description
Nancy’s Touch, named after the amazing woman who developed and maintained the beautiful gardens, is situated in one of the best locations available on the northern end of the Chesapeake. From sunrise to sunset, the view of the juncture of the three rivers (the North East, Susquehanna, and Elk) that merge to create the Chesapeake Bay commands your attention. Soaring osprey, bald eagles, great blue heron and other waterfowl delight as well.

Nancy’s Touch is a gorgeous home set right on the water. Very secluded with a gated entry for security. The home and property are well maintained. We really enjoyed the beautiful gardens around the house. The house is tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture. We loved all the original paintings, many by the owner. The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed. We loved exploring the area with all the shops, antiques and fabulous food. The only negative we had was the pillows could use an upgrade. We were a group of senior ladies and we all want to comeback.

Pet-friendly property with so many outdoor areas to choose from. The fenced area for dogs is ample and completely enclosed - something we rarely find when searching for rentals.What a delight to see evidence of Nancy's love of gardening. Paths wend among planting beds, with benches for quiet contemplation.This is a home we will return to.

This was our second stay at Nancy’s Touch. It’s a beautiful setting, right on the northern reaches of the Bay. You will notice speedboats of course, especially on weekends, but they are usually far off shore and quiet. You will also notice many shorebirds, geese, and osprey. One osprey landed on top of the whale weathervane you see in the picture on this site! The kitchen is well-stocked, and the propane grill was easy to use - and we used it quite a bit. There are restaurants in town, but on our second trip we decided to cook our own dinners, family style.

Lovely and relaxing. Even our excitable westie is calm. We spent our days just reading, stitching, playing in the side yard with our westies and visiting local restaurants.

Amazing house
We stayed here as a staycation while we moved. It was a welcomed rest and relaxation spot. It has an amazing view, great space. I could definitely see ourselves staying there again… even though we are locals to the area.

The house was quaint, scenic, well maintained and in a great location with a breathtaking view of the bay. We had a wonderful time there, would definitely recommend it and would love to revisit again.

A beautiful break from reality
It seems like I always choose to go on vacation during the hottest week of the year, and this year was no different. But sitting on the deck at Nancy's Touch overlooking the river and feeling the breeze pass by, it was easy to forget that it was actually 98 with a real feel of 107.The house is beautifully appointed, and well stocked with everything you could possibly need for a lovely week away. My adult son and his girlfriend joined me, and enjoyed using the kayaks to cool off in the river. They spied osprey nests containing chicks on the pylons as well as an eagle's nest, and we saw and heard birds of prey soaring and hunting as well as many other birds every day, which was a huge bonus to a birdwatcher like me.But the gardens are what makes Nancy's Touch truly special. So many different flowers, including many pollinator attractors to bring butterflies up close and personal. I unfortunately had to return home early, but I'm planning to come back in the fall for a solo adventure. The kids stayed and enjoyed the rest of the week, and we all got a long overdue rest. Book this place. You will absolutely not be sorry. It's clearly well cared for and much loved, and provides a wonderful respite from an increasingly crazy world.
