We had such a great stay and Andrea’s home in Montross! We booked very last minute and had such a great experience communicating with Andrea. She was the perfect host for a last minute getaway! Lots of cute places in town too - including the coffee shop, brewery and Italian restaurant. Would highly recommend!!

Such a beautiful place on a peaceful creek. Me and my family didn't want to leave we were so at peace after our short stay. The covered porch allowed us to enjoy nature out of the hot sun and rain. We enjoyed a couple of great beaches very near by that were almost empty, despite it being a holiday weekend. The pool did seem busy so we did not try it out. We floated around the creek on rafts instead listening to the birds chirp and watching the offsprey catch fish. The house was spotless and already had almost everything we needed. 10/10 would recommend.

Andrea was extremely proactive and responsive to our questions, even reaching out ahead of time to make sure we were aware of work being done and arranged for late check-out, a huge help for our group. The local recommendations were really appreciated, and it's such a beautiful location along the water.

This rental is truly a gem. It's tucked away in a very nice quaint neighborhood with nice people, sitting on the Potomac river with gorgeous views of the river and birds. It was perfect for our senior citizen parents who enjoyed having a cup of coffee and sitting on the balcony, watching the sunrise/set. It was perfect for our kids. They could go kayaking, paddle boarding or fishing right off the pier or sit around the fire pit to roast marshmallows. The last great thing about this house is the layout. There are many areas of entertainment and privacy. The grandparents could be on the deck talking while folks were in the living room, others down basement talking, kids on the pier doing their thing. We never had the feeling that we were on top of one another. When you step foot into this house, you could feel the weight of the world fall off your shoulders. The furniture matched/conveyed the feel of just a peaceful, restful spot on the river. I would highly recommend to all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Andrea's house along the rivah! The house is beautiful and just as decribed. There are many places to hang out both inside and outside, so for a family with a variety of ages, there is a place for everyone! We really enjoyed the water view and peaceful mornings and afternoons on the dock! We spotted a variety of wildlife, from river otters, blue heron to osprey and even had a baldeagle sighting! Our family enjoys being on the water, so we kayaked and paddled a few times each day. The house was very well appointed, with a fully stocked kitchen, and ample storage to stow your belongings away! The beds were comfortable, as well as the hang out areas. Andrea was a wonderful host and answered all of our questions very quickly and thoroughly, as well as providing a few pointers, which made planning a breeze. We would love to come back again and visit sometime!

Stayed here for a long weekend and we had a great time. Andrea is a great host and always super responsive. We had a small issue which she resolved right away. Highly recommend this place if anyone wants to get away from the busy city life

Andrea was the best Airbnb host we've ever had, and we travel very frequently. Even before our trip she was sending us local things to do, information on the area, and restaurants in the area. She was incredibly friendly and ALWAYS easy to reach. It's clear she takes incredibly great pride in her home and wants all of her renters to have a wonderful vacation. We'd definitely rent one of her homes again. This location was picturesque. It was amazing to have a nice view of the river behind the house and the house space was great. We were a family of 6 and with two little girls, there was more than enough space for them to play and the rest of the family to relax and hang out.
