Restored, Historic Mill House Near The NCR Trail

Quaint, Maryland Registered 1856 Mill House close to the NCR Trail, Gunpowder River, Little Falls and Prettyboy Reservoir. Enjoy a quiet retreat in our small but charming cottage near beautiful farms and wooded hills, with a flowing spring, two patios, and second floor porch. Almost five acres of grounds with a stream and small field. The house has a first floor modern kitchen with stone walls and dining area. The second floor is a truly magical log sided living room, bathroom and porch. The bedroom is located on the third floor. A quiet and peaceful retreat for relaxation and rejuvenation, far from the madding crowd (but not too far - Big Truck Farm Brewery is 3 miles away). Ideal for couples and singles seeking a quiet place to work or play. House is NOT handicapped accessible. There is a chimnea on the patio and firewood for guest use.

We enjoyed our weekend getaway here. The area is very quiet, and alive with the sounds of the forest, animals, and birds. The house was so cute & unique with many outdoor spaces - The top porch was my favorite area in the house and my dogs definitely agreed. Excellent location to unplug for a weekend. Thank you!

Owners were amazing from the time of reservation.Communication back and forward with questions, information requested, etc., honestly was beyond my expectation.It was nice being in the old with the new with upgrades in this Historic Mill House. Surrounding Nature was so niceto just sit outside and enjoy the early morning coffee and evening after a long day. Kitchen is equipped with everything you would need.

I loved this property! If you appreciate older homes this one is a gem. So much so I stayed an extra day because I didn't want to leave. It's out in the country which was perfect for me. No traffic noise which made for lovely evenings. The bed is very comfortable and waking up to a beautiful view with the skylight was a bonus. I highly recommend staying here.

Great vaca away from it all

My wife and I really enjoyed outmr stay at the Old Mill House. It was exactly what we were looking for: away from the city, but with all the amenities if home. We especially enjoyed the use of the chimnea and grill on the patio, and the hammock on the balcony. Would definitely stay again!

We rarely rent the same home twice but love the charm and comfort of this beautiful home. We rang in the new year again playing games in the kitchen. The middle floor is super comfortable where we lingered sipping morning coffee while watching a movie. The bedroom is decorated with comfort in mind and the bathroom is nicely done.. The house is very clean, and thoughtfully decorated to ensure a nice stay! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

A wonderful getaway less than 1 hour from Baltimore

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just a short drive from Baltimore, we were able to reset in nature which was very needed. The house is very clean, well-maintained and well-stocked. It's perfect for a couple. We can't wait to hopefully return in warmer months and spend some time on the deck.

Lovely and relaxing

A superior place to stay. We especially loved the second-floor porch (where we spent hours every day, reading in the morning and watching deer at dusk). Just one very small suggestion: better pillows for the bed and cushions for the outside seats.

artsy interior and serene surroundings

A lovely home with even lovelier art and amenities nestled in the woods for all the privacy one could want while being surrounded by nature. All one needs for a very relaxing get away. We were in town for a wedding and I only wish I had more time to explore and enjoy.

About the host

Hosted by David

Host profile image
Jackie and David are native Marylanders who love the outdoors. David grew up in Baltimore County and spent many days fishing the trout streams of northern Baltimore County. Both of us love rivers and kayaking and enjoy hiking and camping.

Why they chose this property

We both fell in love with the Mill House, its peaceful setting and unique history. The previous owners did a beautiful job restoring this circa 1856 house in keeping with its historic character but with modern amenities and conveniences. The original art on the walls was painted by a prior owner. Note the thickness of the house's stone walls, built by human hands over160 years ago.

What makes this property unique

Solitude and beauty surround you. Be sure to walk down the road past beautiful farms to Little Falls and look for small trout and crayfish in the clear, flowing waters.
