Perfect little getaway for a weekend trip to Maryland - the cottage had everything we needed. It was clean and bright plus the sitting area along with river was so relaxing! Would definitely book again!

We had a great 2-night stay at the cottage, it was the perfect size and clean. The view of the water and the porch were perfect for the two of us.

This place was lovely and we appreciated the water, coffee, cream and all the supplies we needed. We were a bit disappointed that the fireplace wasn’t available for use as the weather was cool, cloudy and windy. Would love to stay again on a warmer weekend. Thank you for such a well appointed place!
