Short term rentals (Air B&B) have been occurring on Kent Island and in our community for years. Due to recent concerns from community members, the board is seeking input from our community about the path it would like to take regarding regulation of short term rentals within the community of Romancoke on the Bay.
If you are a ROB community member, please read the discussion document and offer any comments via info@romancoke.com
All input will be utilized to draft covenant modification options that will be presented to the community during the September general meeting for vote.
Meeting is September 21, 2025 1:00pm at the Clubhouse!
We are both an “Improvement Association” and a “Roads Corporation”
Most of this site is general purpose and covers all the day-to-day happenings in Romancoke on the Bay,but there is also information here about the two underlying corporations (Board, Membership, Documents, etc.):
The ROB Improvement Association, Inc. is all about our shared Community and Clubhouse
The ROB Roads Corporation manages the non-County roads within Romancoke on the Bay
