Wonderful house

We really enjoyed our stay- despite a rainy weekend we were able to make the most of being mostly indoors. The house was clean and spacious, plenty of room for all of us. Quite a bit of lady bugs and stink bugs, but thankfully Michael gave me a heads up and there was a vacuum provided to get rid if of them. The kitchen was well stocked and there is a grocery store nearby. Michael was very helpful and flexible as well. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much!

Fantastic

We absolutely loved our stay! The house had great accommodations for 10 adults. The booking process and entry instructions were seamless. The house was exactly as described and the kitchen was stocked with many helpful supplies. Michael the host was so kind offering many suggestions of nearby attractions, restaurants, etc and responded to questions in a most timely manner. I highly recommend this property!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Brown

I am a native Floridian who relocated to DC over twenty years ago. I love this place which has been described as the "Greenest big city in the U.S." . I am an avid nature lover and savor living next to the Potomac River, also known as "the wildest urban river in the world." We live just minutes from Great Falls, with world class kayaking and ferocious rapids. When we are not enjoying city life in our Nation's Capitol, we relax at our mountain retreat an hour away in Boonsboro, MD. We enjoy welcoming guests from around the world into our homes and look forward to meeting you.
