The host, Sherrie, was so nice and her rental was perfect for our family. It was quiet and peaceful and had a large family room with plenty of extra seating for extended family to visit with us.

Peaceful Leesburg Getaway
You would never expect this gem when you pull down the street, but this house is perfect for a crowd or a couple! The view is amazing and the porch is perfect for reading a book or catching up with family. The kitchen nook is cozy and the furniture is comfy! This is a must book if you are visiting the Leesburg area!
