About this property

“Be our guest”...Our home is a historic 1882 3-story townhome in downtown Frederick. While we (John & Sarah) live on the bottom 2 levels, we’d love to welcome you to your own private apartment on the 3rd floor. The space is lovely and is comprised of 4 rooms...a family room, full kitchenette, full bathroom with shower, and a queen bedroom. The front door is shared with the owners, but once inside, the stairs (32 total) lead directly up to your completely private apartment. We have a keyless keypad for your privacy.

Location, location, location! The home is located on a quiet, residential street only 1 block from all the action on Market Street and downtown Frederick. You are literally walking distance to dozens of fantastic restaurants, bars, shops, Baker Park, Culler Lake, Carroll Creek, etc. We offer free parking for 2 vehicles.

While we look forward to welcoming you to Frederick and are available if you have questions, we value the privacy of our guests. Interaction with the owners is up to you. We want you to feel at home, relax, and enjoy.

Please keep in mind, we do have a sweet 13 year old shihpoo, Oliver. He does not shed because he is part poodle. He is a sweetheart and spends most of his day sleeping.

As for your apartment...

Bedroom: Queen bed with hypoallergenic pillows and comforter for 2 people. We provide all sheets, blankets and towels. There is a chair and bench for your luggage.

Family Room: a big, comfy sectional to relax. We have sheets, blankets and pillows for 2 more people. After a full day exploring, we hope you kick your feet up and relax in front of the tv (with cable).

Kitchenette: Frederick has a TON of great restaurants. However, if you’re in the mood to eat in, we provide all the basics!! In the kitchenette you’ll find a small refrigerator, sink, microwave/toaster oven, hot plate burner, coffee maker (with coffee), and plenty of table service.

Bathroom with shower (no tub), towels and wash cloths a plenty!

An Amazing Weekend Getaway

My husband and I stayed at Oliver's Retreat back in March (2023) for a long weekend getaway. We were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary and had always wanted to stay in downtown Frederick. Oliver's Retreat was perfect! We were within walking distance to many restaurants and shops, including my favorite bookstore Curious Iguana. We were also only a short 15 minute drive to both the North and South Frederick Overlooks in Gambril State Park. We loved the coziness and charm of Oliver's Retreat and we would happily stay again!

Character & Charm

Check in was simple with very clear instructions from Owner. Apt. was clean and nicely furnished. Comfortable bed, very silky sheets. Plenty of towels in the washroom. A small stall shower, but great water pressure and temp. It was quite on the 3rd floor. The accommodations were everything needed, and I'd stay again.
