"Located at one of the narrowest spots on the Chesapeake Bay, the still-active Cove Point Lighthouse was established in 1828, making it the oldest Maryland lighthouse in continuous use. On the seven-acre point, you’ll encounter a 40-foot-high brick lighthouse and a lovely cottage that was expanded into a duplex in 1925 to allow for two different keepers to live on-site with their families. While this listing is for the entire house, parties of eight or fewer can opt to rent either side A or side B. Outside either half is a screened-in porch offering expansive bay views, and everyone has access to a beach where kids love hunting for shark teeth and seashells." - Nicholas DeRenzo
