Summer Stay
I spent the past summer here with my cat while interning in Indian Head, MD. Denise was a great host, super nice and communicative. The cats on the property are all very calm and the dogs are super friendly. The cabin is on a well water system which I had to get used to, but in a way contributed to the 'rustic' country feel. Overall, I had a great stay and the cottage worked well for me. My cat loved it too!

Denise was amazing! Cottage is extremely clean & well kept up. Everything you could possibly need was provided. Yard is gorgeous & very private. The pool looked very clean & refreshing, but we didn’t have time to enjoy it. I would encourage anyone to stay here, we will definitely be renting this again.
