Congratulations go to .... Cindy Necaise!
Thank you so much to Cindy and to everyone who participated in this year's cabin raffle — with your support we raised more than $24,000 to continue our work for thriving rivers on Maryland's Eastern Shore through science-based advocacy, restoration, education, and engagement. This is important work that we simply could not do without the support of our community.
ShoreRivers is grateful to the owners of Chestnut Oak Farm for allowing us to offer this little spot of luxury for the past few years. While there can only be one raffle winner, everyone's generosity has ensured that it's our rivers and creeks that truly come out on top.
Purchase your tickets between July 25–August 25 for a chance to win a stay at a western-style lodge retreat on a 90-acre horse farm near the base of Old Rag Mountain! This is a chance for you and 15 of your closest friends to enjoy magnificent views, scenic hiking trails, and so much more, just a short three–four hour drive from our region. All proceeds benefit ShoreRivers' work for thriving rivers on Maryland's Eastern Shore.
Only 300 tickets will be sold to win this luxury, seven-night stay, that includes a wine tasting for 10 courtesy of the property owners. Click here to get yours before they’re gone!
Please note: There is no limit on how many tickets you can purchase. Winner will be chosen at random and notified after the ticket sale period ends — winner’s name will be publicly announced. Property availability can be seen by clicking the blue Check Availability button on the VRBO listing linked here.
This is your final chance to win a stay at Chestnut Oak Farm — ShoreRivers will not be raffling off this property again!
2023 RAFFLE WINNER SALLY MCCASH
It was a week at Chestnut Oak Farm with my family and friends to celebrate my birthday. This beautiful property in the Shenandoah Mountains was a dream come true. A fully furnished home (right down to the soap and towels), hot tub and fully provisioned gourmet kitchen comfortably accommodated 12 adults with room to spare. There is even a separate “Tree House” that sleeps 6 more that we didn’t even use. We also enjoyed a tour and tasting at DuCard Vineyards, hiked with the horses and worked on a group arts & crafts project in the expansive recreation room complete with pool table, foosball and shuffleboard game tables. Even with some mountain dew (aka rain) the views were spectacular.
Don’t miss your chance to win this prize and support the work of ShoreRivers as they raffle it again.

We LOVED our stay with all of our kids and other family members at beautiful Chestnut Oak Farm last October. Our time was made even more special because our son asked if he could propose to his girlfriend there. He popped the question on the spectacular front lawn with us all watching surreptitiously from the balcony. (She said yes!!!)
Chestnut Oak Farm is a place filled with love and joyful memories for the rest of our lives. We have since gotten to know the owners and are grateful to call them friends.
Thank you, ShoreRivers, for making this amazing opportunity available to our family.
