Palisades Retreat
Incredible! The WoW factor when we walked to the pool was overwhelming. So much so, that we chose to stay there our first full day to soak in the atmosphere. It's a must see experience, no down side. It was like being at a private resort with a heated, well maintained pool and manicured grounds, very tastefully staged. So envious. Next time, we will bring bicycles to ride to town, it's only a few miles away. DC traffic is not to be trifled with; its Nascar. Our only bad part was Gladys wasn't around to say goodbye, we truly missed out there. We loved every second we spent with her. This is by far the high bar of airbnb's for us, and we've been to some stunning places, but this is our favorite. It was the best part of our trip!

House in Edgewater Maryland
It was amazing.The pool is so fun.We had bad weather but we were still a little inside.The location is quiet and beautiful. We will come back for sure. Thank you

Wizard's Escape | Sleep15+ | Pool | 2 EscapeRooms
Was a wonderful immersive experience. We enjoyed dining and playing board games in the great hall. The escape rooms were very well done. I was skeptical on how it would go without a game master, even had some nice surprise moments. Looking forward to staying again. Kids were upset we weren't staying all week.

Nature Zen *Metro Walk *Visit DC *Relaxing Lakes
We had a great time! Really loved the proximity to the metro and having access to the community pools. Thank you!

Potomac Overlook Farms: 6 BR, 10 Acre River Estate
We had a wonderful family reunion here with 3 generations. Each family had their own private space but there was tons to do on the property together as well. The hosts were very responsive to our questions and made sure we were comfortable and happy! We appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked, too.

Gunpowder Retreat
This home was spotlessly clean and looks just like the photos. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room and seating for watching movies. The showers and bathrooms were great, and it was nice to be able to do laundry. We used the pool towels provided. The kitchen was stocked with basic items - there is a keurig coffee pot only and they provide pods which was nice. A few things we didn’t realize: the driveway is very steep and we scraped our van trying to go down the first time - you need to go in at a certain angle. The noise alarms are very sensitive and it went off when we were watching a family movie, and we had to answer a text from Tanya. This was honestly a bit annoying. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub! When the jets were turned on, the hot tub become filled with much foam from all the chlorine so we didn’t turn the jets on anymore. We hiked from the house into the state park and did a 5 mile loop, which was very convenient.

Luxury 4 Bedroom - Pool/HotTub/Fire Pit
My family and I enjoyed our stay here. If we are to return, we would most likely look at this house as a first option. The house is very spacious and for there to be 10 of us, we never felt piled on top of each other. the host communicated very well, from the time we booked the reservation up until it was time to check out and we really appreciate that! One main thing I would ask the host to consider is putting FULL BODY mirrors in some rooms (ie. living room/den and master bedroom) it was kind of hard trying to get dressed and make sure I looked well put together without having a full mirror to look into. Also, with all the backyard space, an in ground pool would have been nice but the above ground pool did its job. Overall the stay was about an 8/10

Brand New 1 bedroom Basement Suite
Nice place for a couple of nights. Wouldn't exactly call it "brand new", but place was tidy. Rosalina was very responsive. TV was a bit difficult to use, lots of lag and sound was hard to hear on some programs. Overall a good stay, as the location was perfect for getting to everything we needed to get to.

Private Basement Apartment
Nadia's Airbnb is a beautiful place to stay. Everything is new, the mattress is really great to sleep on, the entire place is clean and welcoming. The kitchen and the bathroom are stocked with amenities that make the stay special, such as toiletries, teas and coffee, waters, small appliances, a space heater and everything you would need for a wonderful stay. Nadia is an outstanding communicator, she is friendly, responsive and timely. The home is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with parking at the front of the house. It is near to major highways to get anywhere in MD or NOVA, as I traveled to both in my week's stay and it was easy to get to anywhere from the location. Nadia is a warm, engaging, respectful and lovely host, I can't say enough about how she made me feel so welcome and at home in her place. Her family is also lovely and you have all of the privacy that you want as there is a separate entrance. The house is very safe, with a backyard with a locked gate.

1 Bedroom Apartment with Private Entrance
This place looks exactly how the photos look. It was very clean and easy to check in It was in a great neighborhood, very safe Very quiet and wasn't hard to find. This place was perfect for my one day stay. I would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful & Private Oasis Retreat
The area is quite impressive. My stay there was excellent Nice hosting as well.

Hidden Gem w/ Pool
WOWZERS! I wish we could stay all summer! The house was phenomenal and Jermaine was great - accommodating and accessible. My guests were very happy with their spaces and my visitors were impressed with the intentionality of the renovation. The pool isn’t heated but with the sun, we hopped on our floaties and had a great time! I made a bestie in the across-the-street neighbor and self-proclaimed watchdog - he helped with the trash cans and offered to replace the porch light so my guests could see better in the dark. Overall great experience. Will rent again!

Melrose Ave
Dylan and Cassie’s place was perfect for our trip! We were doing things in both Baltimore and DC and their place was perfect. It was peaceful, quiet and clean! A great spot to be able to enjoy both cities but find respite in a quieter space. Both Dylan and Cassie were proactive and responsive in communicating who I was a plus! Would definitely stay again in the future when we return to the area. :) Thank you both again!

3 Bedrooms House, clean High ceiling, Sanitized!
Stayed for naval Academy graduation. It was very close and easy to /from BWI. Costco and Arundel mills shopping mall were nearby for all my needs. This place is affordable and clean. I would recommend.

Modern Style Townhouse in Fort Meade/Baltimore
I’ve been traveling to the Fort Meade area for several years to visit family. Albert’s place checked all the boxes. I will definitely be back. The neighborhood is charming and quiet. The location is convenient to everything the Baltimore/DC area has to offer. For me it was minutes away from Fort Meade. Groceries, shops and restaurants were all close by. Further, it was a lovely place for walks. Albert was extremely communicative. Checking to making sure everything was great before, during and after my stay. I highly recommend Albert’s place!

Hummingbird house
LaTasha was a great host! Good communication and responsiveness. We got the check-in instructions a few hrs before check-in time and was actually able to check-in early. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and appliances. My only complaint about the kitchen is there wasn't a sharp knife in the place, which made prepping meals a bit more difficult. Other than that, the place was great and would definitely stay there again. Thanks LaTasha!

Townhome Ideal for Longer Stays
Beautiful clean home with all amenities listed. Responsive host. I would definitely stay again.

Nature's Serene Hideaway
Very clean and cozy. One of the best Airbnbs I’ve ever experienced.

4-Story Townhouse w/Hot Tub in Great Area
My family enjoyed her place. The pictures were accurate. The home is lovely and convenient for shopping. The home was very clean and comfortable. The host was easy to communicate with. This home could have been listed as a Luxe home. Next trip my family will be there again.

*Newly Renovated 3 Bed, 2 Bath*
This home was the perfect spot for our group's trip to Maryland for a nearby festival. It's just about 20 minutes to Baltimore, which made getting to Camden Yards easy, too. It's a spacious, well-maintained, and recently renovated home that offers plenty of space for groups between 3-6 people (ours was three). The open kitchen, living room, and dining room offer plenty of space to relax and get together for meals, while the downstairs rec room was a great spot to watch TV. Having two full bathrooms was a great feature, and all three of the bedrooms were comfortable/cozy. It's clear that great care is taken to ensure the space is clean upon the arrival of guests. The full driveway and ample street parking make it easy for multiple cars, too. There's also a great back deck with a screened-in porch. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking to spend time in Maryland/Baltimore!

Lovely welcoming 3 bedroom house
Very clean and comfortable place with a very polite host and very quick response!

Basement Apt | BWI & Fort Meade
Great place if you are heading out of BWI. Just 15 minutes to long term parking. This apartment is in the basement of an upscale newly built home. Enter from the back. Felt clean. Add a few more plants, some decor to contrast with the nice white walls and I’d want to move in long term😁. Couldn’t find the thermostat but didn’t need it. Over all enjoyed my stay.

ENTIRE BASEMENT WITH PRIVATE ENTRY
Great stay in a great location. Fatemeh was very communicative and made everything super smooth. Highly recommend!
