About this property

Wooded Hillside Retreat in Waldorf, MD - Top 10% and Guest favorite elsewhere

Family friendly wooded retreat perfect for family gatherings, group getaways & team retreats. Central to National Harbor, DC & Old Town Alexandria. Enjoy this spacious home tucked into a peaceful wooded hillside lot. 16 miles from National Harbor & 22 miles to DC. Generous rooms, stocked cook’s kitchen, office space, family room, large dining room & coffee bar. Enjoy grilling & dining on the back decks, relaxing in the soaker tub or gaming with family or friends. Doggie door & fenced yard.

Enjoy both generously sized bedrooms and plenty of gathering spaces. The dining room easily holds large groups, there front room has a dedicated office space with a monitor to connect to for those that need to work, there is a large family room on the main level and a smaller sitting area in the basement complete with TV for those who want to watch something different (or game). We also have a game-room space for the group with board games and card games, books and some extra's for little ones.

If you are traveling with little ones, please do let us know. We have two pack-and-plays, a highchair, a booster seat, a baby bathtub, step-stools for every bathroom and extra toys all available on property to put out for those traveling with younger children.

The backyard is one of our happy places, with both upper and lower-level decks, a large gas grill, plenty of seating and extra lighting on the lower level. Deer, wild turkeys, owls, opossum and many other critters are common sightings just beyond the fence. For your furry family, there is a doggie door leading to a fully fenced backyard (with an extension that goes up to 6ft, because one of our labs was an overachiever when motivated by those deer outside the fence). The doggie door is in the exterior storm door, so easy to close off if you don't want your pet to have access. We also provide pet bowls and a large dog bed for those traveling with pets.

We are just a few miles off HWY 210, which leads right into DC and is an easy connector to 495/Beltway to go into Northern Virginia or anywhere around the Metro DC area.

Great Experience

I was worried about booking this house since there weren't many reviews on this platform, but once we arrived all the concerns were gone. My husband and I plus our 4 teenagers/young adults and two dogs had plenty of room to spread out. The house was clean and fully stocked. There is a large collection of dishes, cups, mugs, cookware, baking items, and coffe/tea machines. The backyard was spacious enough for the dogs to run around and it backs up to a wooded area for a feeling of seclusion. The owners were helpful from the beginning and even set up their own dog crates for our dogs so we didn't have to pack ours. I especially appreciated the checkout process, there weren't any crazy expectations like with some rentals. We recommend this place and would stay again if we visit DC in the future. Thank you for having such a lovely place!

About the host

Host profile image
This was our family home as our boys were growing up and we have made many happy memories here. Now that our kids are grown and we have downsized, it is our hope that many other groups and families will enjoy this space.

Why they chose this property

Enjoy your stay in this spacious 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath home in Charles County, Maryland. It is the perfect blend of a quiet neighborhood and a serene, wooded lot - it was actually the moment we stepped onto the back deck and heard sounds from the woods and not traffic, that we decided to put an offer on the property back in 2002.

What makes this property unique

As long-time VRBO guests for both work and family, we have done our best to include all the extra touches that make us feel at home whether on staff retreat or a family vacation. The kitchen is Jenn's happy place so you will find plenty of extra's there, as well as a coffee bar with regular brew, K-cups, French press and a milk frother for both hot and cold foam, along with an electric kettle and a generous assortment of teas.
