Hard to explain how special this place is… we stayed for the week, first half with just our family and second half with close friends… and it was wonderful, went well beyond our expectations. The owners and managers have thought of everything guests and visitors could need. The design was gorgeous and comfortable at the same time. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!

Idyllic and Serene

This was our second stay at this house with my family and we thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful setting and house amenities. This is a perfect place for an extended family gathering. The pictures don’t do it justice - it is truly a gem in person. There were a few small issues with the house during our stay, to which the property manager and owners responded to and addressed promptly. We hope to return sometime soon!

Family Gathering

Our family chose this home to gather for a week of fun to be able to enjoy the peaceful riverside style of rural Maryland near ancestral communities. What a special surprise to find that “The Farm” is a warm, inviting and beautifully appointed home that provided much space for enjoyment , both inside and out. My children and grandchildren enjoyed the beautiful pool, the river, the expansive lawn… all immaculately kept. ‘Twas like stepping back in time in a lovely new home…. We will hope to return.

Excellent Edgewater

This was our second stay at this wonderful property, and we didn't think that our first time could be topped, but it could. From fishing on the dock to swimming in the pool to wiffle ball on the lawn to watching the storms roll in on the porch, this is such a wonderful place to have a vacation. We certainly hope to be back!

Spectacular Property

We loved our relaxing stay at The Farm! Our group included 6 adults and 2 kids. The house is absolutely gorgeous, sparkling clean and thoughtfully furnished in an understated classic style with unique nautical touches. It's open and airy with room to spare (and bathrooms for everyone). The kitchen was well stocked and we ate all of our meals on the back porch and enjoyed the views. The pool area is lovely. The 2 refrigerators, 2 laundry rooms and ice maker were much appreciated. All in all, a wonderful week in a wonderful home.

Beautiful home, grounds, and atmosphere! Amy and Rebecca were so easy to communicate with. The home is even more exquisite than the pictures show. It was the perfect place for our three families to gather and celebrate the end of summer. Can’t wait to come back to The Farm again!

Incredible House

We recently returned from The Farm and cannot say enough good things. The house is stunning and there is plenty to do. We spent a considerable amount of time outdoors and I want to highlight that there were no mosquitos. None. We’ll definitely be returning!

A nice respite

This was not the family week that we imagined when we booked in the winter. Instead of our grown children and their families and my husband and me, only one daughter, her husband, and their two young daughters stayed. They had a lovely, lovely time. The house was so comfortable and attractive, the grounds beautiful, and the pool was such fun. While I am sad that all of us could not be together, there's always another year to look forward to.
