About this property

Built in 1817 this is one of the oldest estates in Maryland. It has old slave quarters on the property and an 8 hole outhouse along with a summer kitchen that was used for cooking. (both being renovated) It has 7 fireplaces and a great room with bar. A large music room with a circa 1850 box piano. My wife and i were married here last year with over 100 guests.

Historic Mansion

We enjoyed our stay. The house was spacious and comfortable. Couple minor suggestions, I would recommend a couple pieces of cook wear ie Pyrex bake wear be added, revamp of outside seating, labeling light switches. No complaints.

Wonderful Family Reunion

We had lived in Maryland about 30 years ago and were going back to celebrate mom's 90th birthday. The 19th Century Mansion/Farm House, was a great place for people to spread apart and at the same time visit and enjoy one another. Lots of history to explore in the areas as well.Mike was an AWESOME host! His kindness and willingness to help and provide was great! What a kind gentleman! We really had a GREAT time!

Great place for Family get together

Family reunion & birthday get together. We were 11 people slept very comfortably, it is a huge Victorian house so be prepared for some drafty spots in the winter. Other than taking a bit to get warmed up we had a great time well appointed kitchen. Well supplied with towels for the crew we were. Really had a great time!

An incredibly unique experience

This property is not your every-day historic brick farm house. And there's not enough room here to describe all the facets that made this such a special and unique stay. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful and we enjoyed coffee outside. The house is very large and the owner has maintained the historic charm while modernizing the bathrooms, game room and kitchen. There is EVERY appliance you could ever dream of using in the kitchen as well as tons of serving ware and pots & pans. The beds were very comfortable, there were loads of towels for our party of 11, and endless hot water. The host was gracious and communicated well and answered questions timely. Our family made so many memories during this stay.

Amazing historic home

We stayed at this historic mansion with several of our families from Michigan for our son’s wedding. Everyone was amazed at the history this home holds. This home is so large you could literally get lost exploring, plenty of room for everyone. Mike was a very responsive host.

The property owner allowed me to rent the place to use as a location to get ready the day of my wedding. My entire bridal party stayed the night and we had a wonderful time.

Beautiful comfortable space

There was plenty of room for our entire group of 9 to spread out. The beds were comfortable, the space was good for conversations and dining. We came during a cold snap, and the house was hard to heat, but we worked with the host to make things more comfortable. Also, it warmed up from record cold of 11 degrees Fahrenheit to 30, which made a difference.

Travel back in time

The house is so impressive - if you are a history buff this is the place for you! If the owner is willing, it's worth getting a tour from him. I was fortunate enough to get a tour - fascinating history and the subtle modernizations that have been done to maintain comfort. Beds were very comfortable, room temperatures were adjustable, house was spotless. I would definitely recommend this mansion to anyone that appreciates history.

This historic property is a wonderful place for a group getaway. Very clean and well kept. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms are almost brand new.
