A wonderful getaway less than 1 hour from Baltimore

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just a short drive from Baltimore, we were able to reset in nature which was very needed. The house is very clean, well-maintained and well-stocked. It's perfect for a couple. We can't wait to hopefully return in warmer months and spend some time on the deck.

Always Great

This is our third time visiting the Mill House and the reason is simple: it is consistently always clean, quiet, relaxing, and a beautiful place to spend a sunny weekend. We enjoy coming to the Mill House when we want to "disconnect from reality" an recharge. This visit, we made sure to make it and hike some of the great trails in the area which there are many. We'll definitely be returning again in the future.

Great vaca away from it all

My wife and I really enjoyed outmr stay at the Old Mill House. It was exactly what we were looking for: away from the city, but with all the amenities if home. We especially enjoyed the use of the chimnea and grill on the patio, and the hammock on the balcony. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect midweek getaway for a nature retreat

Beautiful, peaceful property. This was the perfect home base for me as I was attending a nearby training immersed in nature. Host was generous and responsive. Can't wait to return with my husband for another getaway.

Beautiful home in a Peaceful Setting

If you get the opportunity to rent this house, do it! The house was beautifully decorated and so comfortable. It had everything we needed. The host was good with communication. The house is located in a quiet and beautiful area with many things to see and do and places to eat nearby. Our favorite part of our stay was taking walks along the road in front of the house. No traffic and a beautiful stream runs alongside the road.

artsy interior and serene surroundings

A lovely home with even lovelier art and amenities nestled in the woods for all the privacy one could want while being surrounded by nature. All one needs for a very relaxing get away. We were in town for a wedding and I only wish I had more time to explore and enjoy.

Lovely and relaxing

A superior place to stay. We especially loved the second-floor porch (where we spent hours every day, reading in the morning and watching deer at dusk). Just one very small suggestion: better pillows for the bed and cushions for the outside seats.

Lovely Getaway

I was so happy to find this listing close enough for a weekend trip from Baltimore, but far enough that it felt like a million miles away (while still being able to watch the Orioles at a nearby restaurant!) This is a lovely property that feels very private, but not isolated. Everything you'd need was available. Perfect early autumn location with great foliage and hiking trails nearby. We felt at home and are already talking about a return visit!

Perfect Peaceful Getaway

Everything was lovely, tucked away in a 19th century stone Miller's house in a little valley by a stream. Perfect renovation with all details thought out. We were very comfortable & it was very quiet like being far into the woods, yet so convenient. Splurged to eat at the old Milton Inn in nearby Sparks, also a stone house, for an old fashioned weekend, back in time.

Perfect!

This was our second time at this wonderful place. First stay was in January, so this time we were able to enjoy the outdoor spaces, especially the front balcony & the chiminea. The house is lovely and extremely comfortable for two people. The kitchen is spacious and well-stocked, the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, yet close to amenities. Everything you need for a restorative getaway weekend!

Amazing

Hands down one of our favorite places we have ever booked! You can tell the owners take pride in their rental and don’t cheapen out like many other rentals do. So comfy and cozy! The area is so peaceful and our dog loved exploring, including swimming in the creek down the street. Make sure to check out the brewery nearby, it’s great! We’ll definitely be back!

Fabulous stay

Enchanted is the word to describe this house. Beautiful, peaceful, quiet. The house is exactly as described, even better in fact. We did not need to contact the host, but it seems like it would have been easy. Of course it was clean and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay. I highly recommend this house to anyone!

Perfect once again

This is the second time my girlfriend and I have stayed here with our dog. We both find so much peace in this property. Everything was perfect just as we remembered it. It was a bit too cold this time around to enjoy the deck as much as last time but the house is so cozy that it didn't bother us. David is a great property manager with punctual communication.

Perfect Getaway

My girlfriend and I were attending a wedding in the area and needed a pet friendly place to stay. This mill house was phenomenal. Everything we could've needed was there including an eno-style hammock on the second floor porch (I spent most of my free time in that hammock.) David is an incredible host and quick to answer with any questions or issues we had. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a cozy getaway away from the hustle and bustle lifestyle.

About the host

Hosted by David

Jackie and David are native Marylanders who love the outdoors. David grew up in Baltimore County and spent many days fishing the trout streams of northern Baltimore County. Both of us love rivers and kayaking and enjoy hiking and camping.

Why they chose this property

We both fell in love with the Mill House, its peaceful setting and unique history. The previous owners did a beautiful job restoring this circa 1856 house in keeping with its historic character but with modern amenities and conveniences. The original art on the walls was painted by a prior owner. Note the thickness of the house's stone walls, built by human hands over160 years ago.

What makes this property unique

Solitude and beauty surround you. Be sure to walk down the road past beautiful farms to Little Falls and look for small trout and crayfish in the clear, flowing waters.
