Perfect get-away!

This was our first experience with Vrbo, and we couldn't be more pleased! Our hosts had so many thoughtful touches in our guest house, and they were very friendly and helpful. We hope we can return next year!

Overnight for Wedding

This was a lovely property with plenty of amenities for a longer stay. It was clean and had plenty of room for our party. We had a last minute addition and it worked out perfectly. Only wish the listing didn't say Owings in the address because we thought we were closer to the event we were attending. The extra 10 min. didn't hurt. I would recommend this quiet, pretty location.

Cute little cottage

while renovating our home, my husband and I had to leave while repairs were being made. The cottage was very clean and neat and stocked well with toiletries. The location was very easy to find. There was a very nice swimming pool on the property and play area for small kids. I highly recommend this property for an enjoyable vacation.

New grandson getaway

Monday to Monday, last week of April 2024. Commuted to Waldorf daily to visit family. Loved the peace and quiet. Loved it was close enough to Harris Teeter and other major stores to get everything I personally needed easily. Beautiful view of the river! Diana was friendly, helpful but never intrusive. Great that the owners are on property. Convenient, easy highway drives to nearby sites but secluded enough to feel very safe and private.

Clean and serene

Our stay was beautiful. Small house but perfect for our overnight stay. Immaculately clean. Though we did not need anything during our stay, the home is on owner’s property and she was very nice in our brief interaction. Check out procedure was easy. Would absolutely book again.

VRBO REPRESENTATIVE PROVIDED TERRIBLE SERVICE. However, the property and host exceeded expectations.

The property is breathtakingly beautiful, no words or photos can do it justice. The home had many special touches to make it very comfortable. The pool, the gardens, and the views of the water, created an ambiance I’ll never forget.

Weekend Stay

It was a pleasant nice environment in surroundings. The house is very nice, cute & clean. However, it is very uncomfortable, seems like someone is watching us every time we come in & out of the house. Not a good thing.
