I usually get a rental away from the city to spend Thanksgiving with friends. We wanted rural, private, quiet, water and scenery within a few hours of DC. This house was all of those, perched above the bay of a creek which flows into the Potomac, with outdoor space overlooking the water, and inside space large enough for people to “have their space” and small enough to feel a family/friends closeness. Very clean, efficiently laid out, well equipped, and recently remodeled, everyone thought it was perfect for the prep for, day of, and recuperation from Thanksgiving. The hosts paid obvious attention to providing those things that make staying away from home comfortable and easy, much appreciated especially in light of the distance to and limited number of stores (about ten miles). No one had any complaints, only compliments, and I extended a day, having lost track of time and to enjoy the rental and area longer.
