Amazing 3 days/nights! My hubby & I wanted to get out of DC to enjoy a peaceful getaway & this was perfect! The cottage was little rough on outside, understandably for a 1920s cottage BUT lawn was beautifully mowed, plenty of firewood & SUPER clean & well appointed cottage. The library had an amazing assortment of WWII books & many others. Full size washer/dryer, new sheets, towels, shower curtain… very nice. Easy to get to and get in.. very quiet! Thank you for a wonderful stay! Highly Recommend!

Even though it was some of the hottest days of the summer so we could not be outside much, we all enjoyed it.

My family had a wonderful stay at this private and peaceful restored cottage. Although the cottage is old, everything works great and has everything you need for a great stay! We loved the fire pit and comfortable outdoor chairs. We would love to come again!
