Sunset Waterfront Nature Preserve Kayaks Eagles Osprey Snakehead Butterflies

The place was nice ,clean and private. Beautiful views of the Potomac. g

Great owners.I would stay here again.

We loved this little spot of heaven! We spent lots of time on the pier or in the look-out looking at the water and the birds.

The place was very clean and they had a very well stocked kitchen of utensils (including corkscrew!) and pots and pans. The grounds are beautiful! The owners have cleared walking paths to wander around on.

We wanted a quiet place where we could enjoy nature but was close enough to DC for day trips. This fit the bill perfectly.

We didn't spend as much time in DC as we anticipated because we enjoyed our digs so much!

Thanks John! We LOVED it!

Tidy, well-equipped cottage exactly as described. The boardwalk and the bird lookout were a big hit with the kids, as was the abundance of wildlife (frogs, butterflies, herons....we saw more deer than people while we drove through the neighborhood). We fished off the dock and enjoyed the beautiful sunsets. Canoeing was great, that portion of the river is peaceful with very few passing motorboats. The beds are excellent. Thank you, John and Carrie, for a great stay!

The house itself is comfortable, homey, clean, equipped with everything you need. The property has plenty of space and fascinating features to explore; our kids had a blast. Loved kayaking, catching minnows, skipping rocks on the river, watching all the wildlife (beaver, bald eagles, ospreys, frogs, butterflies, deer). Thanks, we'll be back!

Just spent three nights at the property and couldn't have asked for anything more. If you're looking to go somewhere where you feel like you're away from it all, but close enough to everything, then this would be a great choice for you. It's close enough to D.C. that you can easily go and see the sights for the day, then come home and enjoy the sunset over the Potomac from the dock. We on the other hand spent three days taking it easy fishing, kayaking and simply relaxing, which was fantastic! We caught 40+ blue cats over the three nights so bring your poles along if that's something you like to do. John was great in helping us prepare for the trip as well as answering any questions we had during the stay and the cottage was clean and comfortable. It was everything we needed for a great 3 day getaway and we will definitely be coming back.
