Ideal river destination

We will be coming back to this hidden gem on the Potomac. The house is immaculate. Perfect spot for a family or a large group of friends. Even in early April, a few in our group used the docks to plunge in the river. Can’t wait to bring the family back.

A beautiful gem on the Potomac River.

What a wonderful weekend, in this spacious and beautiful home on the scenic Potomac River. We had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the area. The host was very accommodating and responsive. We can't wait to come back in the summer to enjoy the dock, river front patio, and fire pit. We'd highly recommend this to locals too as a great spot for a staycation.

Excellent long weekend on the Potomac

We were a multi-generation family celebrating birthdays and a 60th wedding anniversary over the long Easter weekend. The house was beautiful and the location was very peaceful. Although the house is modern in style, it is also very comfortable. There was plenty of room for the various family groups to spread out. We loved all of the extras that were included - kayaks, paddle boards, life vests, firewood and starter toiletries and coffee. The host was very responsive and easy to work with. We're already talking about a return trip!

Beautiful Spot!

This property is located right on the Potomac river in a private, wooded neighborhood. The house is gorgeous and overlooks the river and the ample deer population. Lots of beds and places for people to hang out. The host is very responsive and makes you feel right at home.

Perfect break from the city

My wife and I absolutely loved our stay here! The location was perfect - right by the water with stunning views. The house was clean, well-maintained, and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The balcony off the main living space was perfect for enjoying meals with a view, and we loved being able to swim and kayak right from the backyard. Melissa was friendly and responsive, making the whole experience seamless. We can't wait to come back for another relaxing getaway.

An Amazing Getaway!

My group of friends have started to do an annual getaway trip. This location worked best because of the group size we had, as well as its location being a reasonable distance from where we all live. It lived up to our expectations and and then some! The house was very well maintained and clean and everything was pretty well stocked up in the kitchen as well. Everyone who came loved the home and Melissa was an excellent host. She was very responsive and addressed all of my questions with a prompt response, every time. On our 2nd to last day, it snowed a good amount and we were worried about getting out but Melissa even sent out her snow removal company to plow the snow which made everything so much easier. Everyone attending agreed that this home and Melissa were the best location and host we have ever had in all of our experiences with going on these trips. We would definitely come back to this location again and would highly recommend staying here!

Amazing Thanksgiving Stay, Amazing Property, and Amazing Host!

First, Melissa is HANDS DOWN the best host I have ever interacted with across all booking platforms. Her kindness, responsiveness, and flexibility are completely unmatched. Truly a wonderful human being and I would never hesitate to book another one of her properties. Now for the property itself - The house and property is every bit as beautiful as advertised. It is incredibly spacious and accommodating with very modern features (multi-zone heating/cooling, heated floors throughout the main home). We had a very large group and we all had plenty of gathering space as well as areas to retreat for breaks from the family. The outdoor area near the river and the riverfront are amazing. We were there during Thanksgiving, so it was a little too cold to really enjoy the outdoor features, but there was a consensus that it would be fully enjoyed during the summer months! That said, there is a gorgeous firepit near the riverfront pavilion that we all wanted to enjoy, but never got the chance to. The neighborhood is very quiet and is a great place to unwind and relax. The only "issue" we faced, per se, was the guest house/cottage. It is clearly in the process of being upgraded and modernized like the main house, but there were a few bugs that found their way into the lower level. Nothing major, and the upstairs room and kitchen were used with zero problems. Overall, my family and I are hoping to come back very soon! Amazing property!
