Just perfect

We had a chance to spend the weekend with our kids (age 18 and 20), and we couldn't have asked for a better location. The view was spectacular and the home was perfect. It was so peaceful and relaxing, yet there was so much to do—fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, ping-pong, darts, board games, the list goes on. Everyone had a fantastic time. The only problem is that were only there for three nights!

Girls getaway👯‍♀️

I cannot say enough amazing things about Monica’s place on the Potomac!!! We went for a girls getaway, (delayed 50th birthday celebration) there were 4 of us. Monica has thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. We spent most of our time on the deck just enjoying the serenity of it all. Loved all the cute decorations! Plenty of space for everyone! The downstairs area felt like a private party area. The views are amazing from every room in the house. Walking out of your bedroom every morning to the most beautiful sunrise was the highlight! We have decided this is going to be our new tradition…thank you Monica!

Great place to vacation

This area is beautiful, great area and location. Fishing was good and bad. Be careful an watch your fishing equipment. Had a 50lb test line on a fishing rod/reel, and darn sea creature wanted my rod more than me. Rod was pulled from the dock; my daughter jumped in but could grab it. I don’t know if the creature heard me talking or it just wanted my rod. LOL. All in all, it was a wonderful time and family enjoyed it a lot. I will recommend this rental and area to friends and more. Thank you for sharing your home.

Lovely cottage

The cottage is lovely and has everything you need for a stay. The decor is charming. We enjoyed fishing off the pier, catching and cooking crabs, and eating them on the screened in patio. Quiet and relaxing get away.

Perfect Weekend on the Water

This has been one our favorite VRBO stays only a few hours away from our home and Monica was wonderful to work with. Her home is perfectly decorated to feel like you are at the beach with incredible water views and everything you might possibly need to be entertained for the weekend. We brought our dog, Seymour, and it was a perfect place for him with all the accommodations to love the water and the backyard! We grilled, took advantage of all the kitchen necessities, enjoyed the front sitting room, deck, outdoor fire pit area and the downstairs screened-in game room, especially on Saturday when it rained. We absolutely plan to come back!

Bayside dream cottage

We just spent a wonderful two nights at this property. The house was clean, welcoming, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Unfortunately our visit was not for vacation purposes but the cottage did not disappoint. We woke up early each morning to view the beautiful sunrise over the bay as we enjoyed our coffee. We hope to return on a happier occasion.
