When you're planning a remarkable getaway in Maryland, what do you put on your list? If you're like us, you're probably seeking out someplace special, with jaw-dropping views, resort-like amenities, and that extra-special something that will allow you to feel worlds away from it all. Well, fortunately, such a place exists right here in Maryland. Water's Edge Cottage is a luxury waterfront getaway in Leonardtown, Maryland, and after checking out the following photos, we bet you'll be packing your bags.

Welcome, one and all, to a little slice of heaven on the shores of the Potomac River. Don't let the humble exterior fool you; this waterfront getaway in Leonardtown has some incredible million-dollar views.

We're talking about Water's Edge Cottage, a picture-perfect retreat that will surely take your breath away the moment you step inside and see these waterfront views. The charming fishing cottage was originally built in the 1930s and 40s, but it has received a fabulous makeover to showcase these amazing views.

The house is positioned along the banks of one of the widest portions of the river. It's so wide, in fact, that you could be forgiven for thinking you were on the ocean. Nothing but endless views of the water!

The two-bedroom, two-bathroom space can comfortably accommodate four guests, and you'll be delighted as you discover the luxurious amenities.

With such stunning surroundings, you'll likely be spending the majority of your time outside. If there's a chill in the air, you'll love making use of this indoor/outdoor fireplace.

Or, if you'd prefer to catch a breeze from the water, step outside and enjoy the fire pit near the water's edge. This would be the perfect spot to watch the sunset and do a little stargazing afterward!

Guests should note that there's no immediate water access from the property.

Leonardtown is a charming small town in southern Maryland that is overflowing with historic buildings, family-friendly events, restaurants, and endless scenic water views. And if you know anything about St. Mary's County, it's one of our state's best-kept secrets. Exuding charm, fascinating history, and no shortage of scenery, this little corner of Maryland promises to restore and rejuvenate.

St. Clements Island State Park and Newtowne Neck State Park are nearby, and these underappreciated Maryland state parks are easily worth a visit.

As one reviewer put it, "Just go!" And you know what? We will! What better way to unplug and relax than this waterfront getaway in Maryland?
