Unique Tiny House Studio [With Chickens] Near I-95, FDA, DC, VA

Built initially as a second house and in-law studio, this Tiny House is truly one of a kind.

It sits in the backyard of the main home, which is occupied by a family of 5, a cat, and 5 chickens. Yes we have chickens!

It is unattached from the main house but the backyard is a shared space. However, the Tiny House has a private fenced-in backyard.

We welcome friendly guests only. If you don't like people or animals, this is NOT the space for you.

The Tiny House Studio is an unattached house in the backyard of the main home.

The space is equipped with:

1. Kitchen
2. Bathroom (bathtub)
3. Laundry room
4. Bedroom (studio space)
5. Loft storage area (not a lounge area)
6. Hardwood flooring (kitchen and bedroom)
7. Radiant flooring (bathroom and laundry room)
8. AC/Heat - 2 Ductless Heat Pumps
9. Water Heater (please bear in mind the water gets hot but not as hot as a traditional water heater)

We also do not recommend this space for young children due to safety concerns with the sliding library ladder. However, if you are a parent/guardian of small children, we WILL remove the ladder during your stay. Sorry, no exceptions.

Please keep in mind, we have children, a shy cat, and five chickens (hens), that occupy the backyard. We have small gathering and cookouts from time-to-time and will invite you. You are welcome to join us if you're able and feel comfortable.

We welcome you to our Tiny House Studio with basic essentials upon your arrival. You will be responsible for replenishing these items. We provide only 1 per item. This includes:

1. Toilet paper
2. Paper towel
3. Trash bags
4. Hand and body soap

Other things to note:
Although the Tiny House Studio is built larger than a traditional tiny house, it is truly meant for a single person or a couple. We love to interact with our guests but we will engage with you on the level of your preference.

Regardless, please keep in mind that only friendly, non-confrontational visitors are welcome here. If you don't like children, animals, or friendly interacting, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU.

We want this to be a great experience for everyone. Thanks for your understanding.

This is a very nice place to rent. We spent our days in DC and this location suited us well. The host and hostess were very pleasant and helpful with anything we needed. I would recommend staying here vs a loud hotel room any day!

Great place to relax during a busy trip to College Park. Very comfortable and welcoming. Host was friendly and communicated well before, during and after stay. We’ve shared the location with friends who frequently travel to the area and next time we come to MD, I hope to stay here again.

Our stay in this small cabin was quiet, clean and comfortable.

We found this tiny house to be just what we needed. It was quiet and peaceful while still being in the middle of urban living. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable and had everything we needed.

Fantastic setting

This “tiny house” in not really tiny, it is perfect size and very comfortable. The location is exactly what we needed, close enough to Baltimore to commute easily, and close enough to DC to take the train in and explore there. The hosts were so friendly and made us feel quite welcome. I’d love to stay there again when we are in the area.

Excellent stay at Tiny House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the tiny house. So much better than staying at a hotel. The location was quiet and private, but also very convenient for touring DC. The place was very well appointed with high end finishes not usually found in a rental unit. We highly recommend this property and gladly stay there again.

Nice home for couple

The Tiny House provided the perfect spot for us while we did some work on a nearby property. Unfortunately this was not a vacation for us. The Tiny House offered a good spot for rest after long days of working.

Great location for Summer Research at the Army Research Lab

This lovely rental provided the perfect home away from home for a 1 month research experience at ARL. The location was conveniently located within 10 min of the lab and had easy access routes DC, Bethesda and Baltimore. It was far more comfortable than a hotel by offering bright and sunny space plenty of room for one person.

The Tiny House is accurately but modestly described on the VRBO site. Nothing prepared us for the quality of all the materials used and appointments offered throughout the house, especially the beautiful bath/shower tile work and the great kitchen appliances. The air conditioning worked beautifully as well. The hosts are friendly and helpful. All in all, this place deserves a five-star rating.
