Meet your Host

Hi, I’m Kim


A Dallas-based Navy Mom

We purchased The Goat Getaway while our daughter was a Midshipman at the United States Naval Academy so we could stay close to her worldβ€”attending games, spending time together, and truly experiencing Annapolis as a family.

When I’m not hosting, I love traveling, staying active, and connecting with other Navy families. Hosting has become a natural extension of thatβ€”creating a space where others can gather, relax, and enjoy meaningful time together.

This home is especially close to my heart because it represents a season of life filled with pride, connection, and unforgettable memories. It’s more than just a place to stayβ€”it’s where our family came together during some really special moments.

We care deeply about thoughtful design, exceptional cleanliness, and creating a stay that feels easy from start to finish. Every detailβ€”from comfortable beds and quality linens to a fully stocked kitchen and organized spacesβ€”is intentional, because those small things make a big difference.

My goal is simple: I want you to feel completely at ease. Whether you’re visiting your Midshipman, attending a game, or gathering with friends and family, I hope this home gives you the space to connect, unwind, and enjoy your time in Annapolis without stress.

More than anything, I hope you leave with great memoriesβ€”time well spent with the people you care about, in a place that felt comfortable, welcoming, and easy. If The Goat Getaway becomes part of your Annapolis tradition, that’s the greatest compliment we could receive.
