Perfect little place for our wedding weekend.

This is a perfect little getaway for 2-4 people. We stayed here for my nephews wedding. We had a couple of small glitches that were addressed quickly and fairly by the homeowner. If you go in the winter, the bedroom is extremely cold so make sure the portable heater is available before going to bed for the night. The owner will provide it for you.

Awesome experience

My two cousins and I spent a long weekend in Union Bridge to see family. This rental was really great. Quiet, relaxing, all the amenities we needed and more. We loved, loved, loved the horses, donkey, kitties, chickens! Jen and Bryan were very gracious and responsive hosts. They gave our family a tour during feeding time of all the farm animals and my cousins were just wild about that! Great experience and will for sure be a return customer next trip up. Thanks Jen and Bryan!

Great property. Quiet and relaxing. This was just what we needed while waiting to close on our new home. Our doggies enjoyed sniffing around at all the interesting scents outside on the farm, although they were a little intimidated by the horses...lol. wonderful hosts. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect Peaceful Getaway

We had an amazing experience at this property! We found it clean and cozy upon arrival, and were greeted by curious horses nosing over the fences while we drove in. Jen was welcoming and responsive to any questions, and everyone we met was so friendly (humans, cats, and horses). I couldn’t recommend it enough if you’re looking for a quiet place to stay within easy driving distance of Frederick, MD or Gettysburg, PA.

Fantastic Retreat

We had such a wonderful time during our stay at the retreat. I truly loved the setting. The farm and surrounding area is beautiful with amazing sunsets! We were very grateful to have been able to bring our dogs with us to be a part of our vacation. The location was great to all our explorations. Thank you for all you did and looking forward to returning in the future!

We love this place!

This is a fabulous "get away" from our ordinary suburban lives. The setting is so lovely, with rolling hills and trees and fields. The cottage is perfectly comfortable. And having the horses right there makes it sort of magic. The host is very responsive to any issues that crop up. We hope to come again.

Thanksgiving on the farm

My husband, daughter and I booked this property as we wanted to stay convenient to our family and have our small dog with us. We loved this place! Being on a horse farm we were greeted by horses every morning, They stood on their fences waiting for us to come over and let them! The property is so peaceful and relaxing. Very convenient but outside of the congestion of traffic. The property has a fully stocked kitchen with every utensil we needed to prepare meals. Comfortable - and out dog was very happy here as well. We will definitely be back!

Would not recommend

We were very disillusioned with the inside of the property in contrast to the description. We were prepared for the working farm environment however, during the course of our stay we killed over 8 dozen flies. Cobwebs were present throughout the inside of the property and "complimentary toiletries" were in actuality well-used, full-size bottles of various items hanging on a shower caddy. The shower curtain rod was not attached to the wall but rather sitting atop wood trim above the shower walls. The floor transition strip was broken and covered with a corner of a rug. The most egregious issue was realizing the bedroom was not built to code and that there was no egress/exit from the bedroom in the event of a fire. All in all, we purchased 2 fly swatters, brought in our own fire extinguisher (since none was to be found upon inspection), and did not unpack or prepare meals due to the amount of flies and fly excrement. We stayed because we had already paid for the week. We could not afford to loose this money and pay for additional accommodations, however this was really a disappointing experience.

Gorgeous getaway

My husband and I could not believe how lucky we were to find this lovely spot, so near to DC but feeling like a different world. The setting is rolling hills and fields (with horses!), the cottage is spotless and totally comfortable. Good reading chairs, great mattress & bedding, well-equipped kitchen made it easy to relax & settle in. We also enjoyed easy drives around nearby countryside & charming little towns. We did have a little trouble finding it - some technical glitch kept us from getting the directions on time - but once there we LOVED it and are eager to go back.

Communication Issues

I sent an info request before booking, and did not receive a response. I thought it might be because I ended up booking shortly after. During my stay, there were dirty towels hanging on the back of the bathroom door, the water in the kitchen did not work, and there was a ceiling leak in the bathroom. I messaged just to let the owner know, not that it was a big deal, and received NO response at all. The last thing I want to do is mess with someone's side hustle, but it didn't seem right. Will stay elsewhere next year.
