My host Denise went beyond what I expected. She had yogurt and strawberries waiting for me when I arrived. She was friendly and gave me good directions to a restaurant I wanted eat at.

Hidden Gem in Laplata

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.

Our property owner Denise was the best. Very knowledgeable about nearby places to see and things to do. She responded quickly in response to a matter we brought to her attention. Very friendly cats for my wife to fuss over. Will return again if time allows.

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!
