Galena House | Serene Riverfront Country House with Kayaking & Breakfast

5 Bedroom House with Fireplace, Barbecue and Laundry

This home was originally built in 1830 and has been completely restored lovingly by its owners, and sits upon an overlook of the river. You'll feel like you've stepped back in time but still get to enjoy all of the modern conveniences. Nature is all around you in this waterfront home. Birdwatchers especially love watching the Eagles, Osprey, ducks and other waterfowl. We see deer frolicking on the embankments and the sunsets are spectacular!
The property includes the use of an additional efficiency unit above the garage. (We lovingly call it "Fonzies Apartment" if you grew up in the era of "Happy Days." The kids love it, and adults do too. It's cozy and comfortable and a nice space to get away from the main the house. The property can sleep up to 12 guests overnight. The property includes a screened-in porch facing the waterfront view, a fire pit, kayaks and paddleboards, and fishing from the dock. (Bring your own poles and bait.) You can explore the shoreline or take a nap in the window seat overlooking the water. Some folks even enjoy a swim on the creek side of the house. Our guests tell us that the screened-in porch is their favorite part of their stay. It's serene. Morning coffees, and family time together over lunch or dinner and just sitting there together talking are really special.
Secluded and out-of-the-way, yet 15 minutes from major shopping. There are multiple nearby marinas and great restaurants like Deep Blue at the Kitty Knight House and The Granary, both are just a 2 minute drive. A mile away, the friendly folks at Twinney's serve up home style favorites. For night life and other fun, go to Chesapeake City (We like The Chesapeake Inn, Schaefers Canal House and Prime.) You can also head to Chestertown for another vibe and great options. Annapolis is only an hour away if you are feeling adventurous! If you like to get your steps in, a walk up the drive to the main road is relaxing. Within 5 minutes, you'll find great produce, baked goods and everything you need at Cross Street Market, there is also a convenience store with liquor, packaged goods and sandwiches. In Middletown, you'll find everything you need including Dutch Country Farmers Market open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. We offer a wide selection of board games for the homebodies who want to bond around the table with some competitive fun and family memories!

Summary: From the moment we entered the property the relaxation began!! The location and history of the area was interesting. The rooms were comfortable and homey. The screened porch was the central space and the reading knook was never empty. All enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding in the calm river water. All agreed we would like to revisit the property again. Communication with the owners was prompt and courteous. Thank you
