This is a very nice place to rent. We spent our days in DC and this location suited us well. The host and hostess were very pleasant and helpful with anything we needed. I would recommend staying here vs a loud hotel room any day!

That warms our hearts. You're welcome to stay here when you return again to the area.
Great place to relax during a busy trip to College Park. Very comfortable and welcoming. Host was friendly and communicated well before, during and after stay. We’ve shared the location with friends who frequently travel to the area and next time we come to MD, I hope to stay here again.

It was nice having both of you here. You are welcome to stay anytime you visit and we appreciate you sharing our Tiny House.
Our stay in this small cabin was quiet, clean and comfortable.
We found this tiny house to be just what we needed. It was quiet and peaceful while still being in the middle of urban living. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable and had everything we needed.

You're welcome to stay here any time. It was a pleasure to have you here.
This “tiny house” in not really tiny, it is perfect size and very comfortable. The location is exactly what we needed, close enough to Baltimore to commute easily, and close enough to DC to take the train in and explore there. The hosts were so friendly and made us feel quite welcome. I’d love to stay there again when we are in the area.

It was a pleasure to have you here. We're so happy that you felt like home. You're welcome to stay here when you return again to the area.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the tiny house. So much better than staying at a hotel. The location was quiet and private, but also very convenient for touring DC. The place was very well appointed with high end finishes not usually found in a rental unit. We highly recommend this property and gladly stay there again.

Thanks John! You and Kelly are welcome here anytime. Thank you so much for treating our place like your own.
The Tiny House provided the perfect spot for us while we did some work on a nearby property. Unfortunately this was not a vacation for us. The Tiny House offered a good spot for rest after long days of working.
Great location for Summer Research at the Army Research Lab
This lovely rental provided the perfect home away from home for a 1 month research experience at ARL. The location was conveniently located within 10 min of the lab and had easy access routes DC, Bethesda and Baltimore. It was far more comfortable than a hotel by offering bright and sunny space plenty of room for one person.

We were happy to host you! You're welcome back anytime you’re in town
The Tiny House is accurately but modestly described on the VRBO site. Nothing prepared us for the quality of all the materials used and appointments offered throughout the house, especially the beautiful bath/shower tile work and the great kitchen appliances. The air conditioning worked beautifully as well. The hosts are friendly and helpful. All in all, this place deserves a five-star rating.
