A Place Away From Busy Life

My friends and I loved Jack’s cabin. It was peaceful and close by to nearby parks. The cabin itself was very clean and had a lot of included amenities, including kayaks, which we were grateful for. The check-in process was easy as Jack met us at the property to hand us the keys and go over onboarding. Check out was very easy. We would definitely recommend this to small families or friends who are looking to get away from the busy world of urban or suburban Maryland.

Wonderful Thanksgiving!

My family enjoyed our stay here over the Thanksgiving holiday. Everything was wonderful: clean; an over abundance of sheets, towels, pillows, and bedding; fully equipped kitchen; firewood chopped for the fire pit; kayaks ready for use; and more. We were welcome by the owner who was friendly and informative. I am looking forward to a summer stay!

Hidden gem

I don’t have enough good things to say about staying here! We stayed for 6 days and were so sad to leave. Jack and Jeannie have put so much thought into the house. It had everything you could need! The property is so beautiful and peaceful and was a great place to relax and enjoy each other’s company. The river access is like no other. We saw a couple groups of people further up the river but only had 2 kayakers go past us the whole time we were there. It was like having our own private river! We loved getting to use the kayaks, but also enjoyed just floating around since the current was not very strong. This place is truly a hidden gem and we can’t wait to plan our next visit back here!

Best Girls Weekend Getaway

This home is clean and fully stocked with everything you need for a relaxing time by the river. The 2nd fridge is a great addition along with several outdoor activities and an amazing fire pit. Jack was very responsive and his detailed instructions prior to, and during check in were perfect. Jack is very friendly and we enjoyed the guided tour upon arrival. We have been staying at river front houses for 15 years and this by far was the BEST one we have encountered. The location is secluded and beaming with wildlife. We saw a bald eagle, deer, river otters, fish, many types of birds and a great array of butterflies. It was simply the perfect weekend.

Rest, peace and quiet

We really enjoyed staying at the Nest. Great location for disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives to rest, reenergize, enjoy and marvel at God's wonderful creation outdoors. Jack's personal check in process, sincere attention to detail and good communication throughout our stay was really apprecitated and improved our experience through some uncontrollable circumstances. Thanks, again, Jack, and we hope to vacation at the Nest again in the future. Regards, Aaron 😀

Best rental home we’ve ever stayed in!

From booking to check-out, Jack made this stay hands down one of the best yet! Outstanding communication, extremely clean, amazing customer service…we were blown away at the attention to detail which made us feel right at home. The property is remarkable. We spent our days kayaking, relaxing on the deck/in the Adirondack chairs and enjoyed beautiful nights around the fire pit. Best rental property we’ve ever stayed in, 100% recommend!

Beautiful Fall Stay

Stayed this past weekend and had an amazing time on the property. Jack met us at the house and gave us a quick tour and provided all the info we needed. The house had all the amenities you could need and more. The provided firewood to make fires at the fire pit under the lights was a great feature, and we were even able to take advantage of a short kayak ride even though the water levels were quite low. My kids are already asking "when can we go back." Thanks for sharing your property with us Jack!

Fall Summit 2022

The Nest was a perfect place for our fall trip. Everything about this place is well thought out and nicely appointed. The wrap around deck made for porch sitting and full moon viewing. We saw deer, fox, bald eagles and so many different birds of the area. We could almost see the leaves changing right before our eyes. We loved this space and would love to visit again. Thank you, Jack!
