A true GEM!

From the time of our booking, through our just completed stay, Owner was gracious, cooperative, responsive and helpful. The property itself was perfect for my wife and I and our two guests. Spacious, large bedrooms and very well stocked kitchen. We lacked for nothing. The guest house was a great option for a little separation, although we didn't need it for this trip. Well maintained property with an incredible view and location. No reservations-just highly recommend. Richard and Gloria

Relaxing gateway

The privacy of the property allows for a truly relaxing getaway, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, while the nearby area offers options for restaurants and shops. This property is perfect for nature lovers who also desire maximum comfort.I would especially recommend this residence to families or couples seeking a rejuvenating experience in front of the majestic Potomac River. The hosts were exceptional, attentive to every detail to ensure our stay was perfect. Without a doubt, we look forward to returning and enjoying this beautiful natural retreat again.

Beautiful Property

My family stayed during the 2022 Christmas holiday; the home with guest house was well-equipped with waterfront views of the Potomac River. We enjoyed the expansiveness, openness of the living and dining areas. It was the perfect place with lots of space, good sized rooms all on one floor.

This home is spacious, clean and private. The river view is priceless. I would recommend this property to any and all. 45 minutes from downtown DC; but the rural location has the feel of absolute peace and quiet.

Absolutely wonderful!

We have stayed in a few VRBOs, all have been really great, but this was the nicest by far. Lots of space, beautiful views. Once we figured out the park and ride, it was an easy trip to DC. Water pressure was a bit weak, but all the great things in this house made up for it.

Great stay!

Did a family getaway with 4 kids (8-14). It was the perfect house. Plenty of room… large bedrooms, several bathrooms and a nice open living space. Being on the water with the captain’s quarters and the kayaks were great. House was clean, stocked and well maintained. Short distance to National Harbor.

Sister Trip

My sisters joined me for a gathering. Some of us stayed at the waterfront home and others stayed at National Harbor, but we floated between the two. The peacefulness and Zen of the waterfront home was much needed and restful. Everyone enjoyed the stay and the memories that were created. If the house wasn't so big, I would just take time to book it for my husband and myself, even though we live in the area.

West Coast Family Reunion

This house was perfect for a family reunion. 9 persons in VRBO and 10 folk staying locally. From badminton, kayaking, grilling and eating the sunset every night together, it was perfect. Every bedroom had an adjacent bathroom, the dining and great room had spectacular views of the river. We were foodies and cooks and had to bring some of our own equipment, but the kitchen was capacious and a pleasure to work in. Everyone wants to come back and the little ones want to live here!

Perfect family retreat

We had a wonderful stay at this property! The house was beautiful-big and sprawling for our family group of 8 adults/young adults. Gorgeous view of Potomac. Loved the location…rural woods lake house, but about 40 minutes to DC. We enjoyed the kayaks, the boat house and visited many historical sites. Sylvia was always very responsive and helpful to all our questions. Highly recommend.

Why we LOVED this property!

My friends and I highly recommend Sylvia’s beautiful property. We were able to enjoy DC and other historical sites and then come home and relax with a glass of wine and breathtaking sunsets. We all agreed that this property is designed with visitors' comfort in mind. The home is well-stocked, with shampoo and conditioner in all four bathrooms, books, games, and everything (minus food and drink) you would need in a kitchen! Thank you, Sylvia, for creating a beautiful environment for memory making😁
