Great stay again. I'll be glad to stay there on the next trip.

Norma and Patrick kept in contact with us as our arrival time was a bit unsure. Our bedrooms were lit up and all ready for us. They have a beautiful home and farm and made us feel very much at home. All sorts of breakfast items were waiting in the kitchen when we got up in the morning.

Pat and Norma were friendly hosts. I was a bit sensitive to the smoke in the house, and at times, the loud TV noise and talking. I wore layers of clothing to stay warm. But besides that, the company was nice and friendly.

Very comfortable place to stay with beautiful surroundings ........ will definitely check in again.

I loved this B&B! The home was gorgeous, the countryside stunning, and the host and hostess could not have been friendlier. It was quiet and restful and I slept peacefully. The room was beautifully decorated and more than comfortable. They get ten stars!!!

Beautiful farm - incredible setting - gracious hosts and a wonderful place to stay. The house is great and the sheets are super soft. Very nice place!

WONDERFUL stay! We loved it. My son Ian had the best time! He absolutely loved the farm and Patrick and Norma. I love how pet friendly they are and their own pets are amazing. Looking forward to staying again(URL HIDDEN)

OK for a less expensive brief stay, where most of your time there will be in your own room. With door closed, room is quiet. Appreciated a pet-friendly place. Best if you're a smoker or not sensitive to cigarette smoke.

This was a great place for a secluded quiet getaway.

Very clean and friendly, a little noisy, but it is a shared room in a main house, so that would be expected next time!

Norma and Patrick are cordial conversationalists with a lovely home with views of bucolic pastoral rolling hills. They make you feel welcome the second you step in the door. I fell in love with their happy cat.

I have stayed here a few times and there are always others staying as well. (Business travelers and people with pets.) I enjoy Norma and Patrick's place and they are friendly people.

Large farm house with several guest and a shared bathroom. Room is private with a key. Large kitchen well stocked kitchen. Breakfast each morning. Tea and coffee always available. Farm has cows, horses, dogs and cats. WiFi was great. Nice relaxing space.

Spotless room, friendly hosts, fun dogs!

Amazing place to live in. Overall very clean, quiet, friendly atmosphere. There were a few other tenants living there as well in different rooms, but I never came across them. The bathrooms are shared, but very very clean. Hosts not only provided a bed, but also food in their fridge and outside as well. Lots of parking space available. They have friendly dogs, they don't go into your rooms. You don't have to worry about anyone invading your privacy, they give you a key for your room. You will feel very safe here. They also have other accessories you may need like an ironer, toothpaste, shampoo, towels, brochures on local places to visit, etc. Best place you can stay for the cheapest price.

We had a relaxing evening at your place. Your recommendation for restaurant was just right!

Easier to find than expected, wonderful vista's and hospitality!

Great stay! Clean and cozy room. Host was super nice. Really enjoyed the stay. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

Good place

Tim was an incredible communicator and he was very thoughtful in all the accommodation details and his place was beautiful.

The place is perfect. TV is so big. There is a soft sofa bed. Large kitchen. Bedrooms are so nice that we had a very good Christmas even. Definitely will come back again.

Tim was prompt to reply to our text messages and to give instructions about the address and where to find a key. He seemed eager to assist us with whatever we may need. We picked this condo because of its proximity to our relatives during our holiday visit, and it was perfect for that. The condo is a little tired and has clearly been lived in, but it suited our needs for the days we spent in the area.

Tim's place was impeccable! The home was upscale and stocked with everything you need and more! When we opened the refrigerator there was a beautiful welcome gift of champagne and sparkling cider. Tim set the stage for our fabulous getaway. He was extremely easy to work with and accessible at all times if we had any questions. We had a wonderful time in the town of Frederick and we owe a great deal to Tim as he went above and beyond to make our trip special. I highly recommend this home away from home! We are already planning our next visit!

Lovely condo, very nice host!

The stay was good for my specific purpose, in the area for a wedding and needed a place to stay with my family. We knew the house was on the market, which was fine, however, were asked to leave for a short period for the owner to show the property. This irritated me as we rented the whole condo for the weekend. The owner was polite about it though. Again, lots of space, but good for what we needed it for.

Awesome spot - great value!

Lovely historic home on lots of land. The farm is nearby other houses but also has a nice secluded feel. Patrick was very friendly, and they were well prepared to host people at their wonderful home.

Fabulous place to stay and wonderful hosts! Felt right at home. The location is bucolic and the room I stayed has the most comfortable bed. There were lots of little "extras" like towels, blankets and a generous continental breakfast. Will definitely stay here again!

Norma and Patrick were very sweet. Pat helped me bring in my things and both were great conversationalists. My room was cozy, warm and the bed was comfy. There was a info pack waiting for me including local attractions, places to eat, etc. I LOVED the country charm and the open kitchen. Option of using either a claw foot tub/shower or shower bathroom - whichever wasn't being used at the time. Great water pressure. Loved having 24hr access to the coffee/tea hutch and a key lock on the bedroom door. Very clean. The family made me feel welcome and the dogs and cat were friendly too. Even my dog enjoyed "play time"! Looking forward to seeing them again.

What can I say...another awesome stay at Norma & Patrick's! Super nice, super quiet and Pat & Norma are super hosts!

I have visited the Farm several times over the last year. I am so glad to have found this sanctuary less than an hour from the hustle and bustle of the city. This is my 1st visit during the winter months. With the New Year approaching the stress of the holiday had taken a toll on me, I kept feeling like I needed to get out of town, then I remembered the serenity of the Patrick & Norma's lovely 24 acre farm in Monrovia, Norma and Patrick truly offer their guest warm inviting hospitality. In the past they have always been friendly and gone out of their way to accommodate me to ensure my comfort. This trip was no exception. I spend New Years Eve exactly as I wanted, in the peaceful tranquility of the farm house. Norma and I shared an evening cocktail, Patrick built me a lovely fire, and I sat in the message chair watching movies on the Big Screen. There was even a perfect view of midnight fireworks show from near by New Market. Even the dogs and cats made me feel like I was at home. As always the animals were all very affection and well behaved. I even got to enjoy Norma's homemade Christmas Cookies:-) I slept in the Silhouette Room. This is my first time staying in this room. It is comfortably appointed with charming country style. There is plenty of light during the day and moonlight at night if you decide to keep the curtains open. The bed has memory foam which offered superior comfort for my bad back. I even took advantage of the rooms electric fireplace as I read myself to sleep. The bathroom was clean and had one of those gorgeous claw foot tubs. In the morning I sat in the kitchen and had tea while I watched the cows and horses in the field enjoying their morning breakfast. I had time to journal, meditate and use my computer to do some shopping research. I was so comfy that the time slipped away from me in the quite of my room. I finally got dressed and returned to the kitchen. Where I found Norma and Patrick enjoying their morning routine. A conversation ensued. We talked and laughed for what seemed like minutes but ended up being an hour or so :-) I left the farm feeling relaxed and refreshed, ready to start the new year. Thankful to have visited my home away from home.

I greatly enjoyed staying on the farm. It felt like home! I will hope to be in Maryland soon so that I can stay with Norma and Patrick again.

It was a truly pleasant stay. The entire property was beautiful, and the room was warm and cozy. Patrick was a wonderful host and suggested some great places to eat. Very conveniently located, as well. Also loved all of the animals on the farm, too. Overall A+.

Nice place.

The apartment was very large, the bed comfy, overall it was really a great stay. Having access to the cable tv and wifi was a great perk. The host was nice and friendly as well.

The bed and furniture were comfortable. The location was great - central to many restaurant and shopping options. The building was quiet and the little back patio was fairly private. The deep jacuzzi tub was a nice bonus to our weekend away and Kelly's communication was great. If we go back to Frederick, we would definitely stay here again.

The condo was exactly as advertised and exactly what we needed. The bed was comfy, two baths were a very nice convenience, the kitchen was fully equipped and easy to use, and the cozy balcony facing the trees was a delightful place to sip morning coffee!The location was extremely convenient, yet in a quiet, and relatively secluded complex. Kelly was great to communicate with, quick and friendly! If we ever stay in the area again, getting a reservation here will be a top priority. A perfect place for our little getaway. Thank you Kelly!

Donna is a gracious, friendly host who is fun to talk with and who offered good advice about local places to eat and how to get around. The room is a large, finished-basement apartment that is very nicely appointed, pleasantly decorated, and spotlessly clean. The king-size bed was very comfortable and the room is quiet which allowed us to sleep well. The room and house are much as pictured, but the beauty of the property is not given justice by the pictures provided. The pastoral setting is spectacular with gorgeous views of rolling farmland and countryside. The view of the house as you drive into the property is beautiful and gives a wonderful feeling of anticipation of a special place to stay. We enjoyed walking down the driveway at sunrise, the quiet countryside, and petting the horses in the adjacent pasture. All and all, we had a wonderful stay.

This is a beautiful home with a lovely host. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Wow. The place is a mansion and the host Tom is very gracious. Comfortable bed, my own bathroom, a cute and cuddly old cat to cuddly with. What more can you ask for?

Another great stay, Tim is a great host. Will use again.

Tim's house is spotless, beautifully decorated and as comfy as can be! Tim is a great host that will go to great lengths to accommodate you. His bedroom is fully furnished with an extremely comfy bed and you will have the spotless bathroom right next door. On top of that he has an adorable cat named Tiger to complete his already perfect home. All in all, I highly recommend Tim and his house. 6 stars!

I enjoyed my stay at Tim's place. He was a friendly and respectable host! It worked out great!

Tim is an incredible host, very welcoming and friendly while still giving us personal space. The room and bathroom (as well as the whole house) are beautiful, comfortable, and clean. Tim made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable night. If we ever return to the area we would stay with him again. Thanks so much, we would highly recommend this host!!

Tim was an exceptional host. From check in, to check out, I felt welcome and a part of the house. The room was comfortable, clean, and I'd love to stay again.

It was very clean and comfortable. He was very nice and humble.

Debbie greeted us as soon as we arrived. She was very easy to text with any questions I had. Very accommodating! The space was wonderful and I would highly recommend it to anyone. It was perfect for our stay there. So much space! :)

The stay with last minute plans could not have gone better. The kids loved it and it was just the peaceful place we needed. Highly recommend for a restful retreat with countryside flair.

Debbie's home was perfect for my group of friends! The house truly is beautiful. Ample parking, comfy beds, kitchenette equipped with coffee and the essentials, and a beautiful horse to pet! What more could you ask for? The house is about a 30 minute drive to Shady Grove, which was perfect for convenient travel in and out of D.C. If we ever travel back, we'll be sure to stay here again. THANK YOU!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The check-in process was very easy and everything was just as described and photographed. My young son really enjoyed getting up every morning and looking for Debbie's horse, Doc, so that he could feed the horse some carrots. Debbie even surprised us one day with a basket of peaches from a local orchard. We would certainly be happy to stay here again next time we are in the area.

My wife and our children loved staying at Debbie's house. The home was clean, had loads of space and activities for our active children. We hope we can come back one day. Thank you Debbie and Craig for making our stay comfortable and memorable.

Our family loved staying at Debbie and Craig's! The accomodations were very comfortable and were exactly what we were looking for. There was lots of space in the apartment and there was a lovely patio to sit outside on as well. We also enjoyed walking the trails on their property through the beautiful forest. Doc, their horse was an added bonus to our trip. We enjoyed spending time with him. Debbie and Craig were so helpful, we needed directions and they got us to where we needed to go. Instead of sightseeing, we spent our time relaxing at their home. It was a great time for our family to spend together and everyone enjoyed it!

Debbie's apartment was an excellent place to stay for a family of up to 6 people. There was more than enough space and beds for everyone to fit comfortably. The rooms were clean and my kids loved the ping pong table and air hockey in the living area. My sister lives in the area and we plan on staying here everytime we come to vist. It's close to shopping and about 10 minutes away from I-270. If you have a large family it's a great bargain, don't miss it.

The home was beautiful but it was a ways away from DC where the majority of our trip was spent. So if you're visiting DC, this location may not be the best. The amenities were great and the basement itself was very clean. The first night it was difficult to sleep because you can hear people upstairs walking around and playing loud music, but luckily that got better in the next few days. Also, there is no AC control in the basement, that is controlled upstairs. The only real issue I had was the actual privacy of the basement. It does have its own entrance in the back, but the door that is connected to the upstairs part of the home cannot be locked from the basement.

John's house was a beautifully remodeled Victorian. We were in town for a graduation at McDaniel College in nearby Westminster, so admittedly we didn't get to fully enjoy John's hospitality. He got up early to fix us coffee, but we had to rush off to secure our seats for graduation. The room itself was modestly decorated & John was gracious enough to provide a blowup mattress for my niece who was an add-on after I had booked the reservation.

This was my second stay with John. It was even more pleasant than the first one. John is a wonderful host and his place is just perfect for rest and relaxation.

Another great stay with John! Clean and comfortable house, friendly host.

John was an attentive and gracious host. The house was clean and inviting. I loved sitting on the front porch enjoying some delicious coffee that John lovingly made in the morning. The bed and bedroom were comfortable, neat and full of light.

This was my third stay with John, and as usual, everything was great. John and Ka'ren are very warm and pleasant hosts.

We had a great time at Johns place! It was gorgeous, quiet and quaint and John was a wonderful host. Very family friendly as well if traveling w kids. He even invited us to cook and eat with his family one night. Our daughters loved making pizza!

John has a gorgeous historic home and is a great host. He welcomed me, invited me to supper and coffee, and was very considerate. The room is spacious, comfortable, and clean. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Mt. Airy.

What a perfect spot for visiting our family in Mt. Airy....we had a wonderful time getting to know John (and Ernie and Lily). John's house is a treasure--spacious, light-filled rooms and so many beautiful architectural details to enjoy. It was nice to have use of the kitchen and laundry during our stay and the house is within walking distance to shops and restaurants downtown, as well as the walking trail to Watkins Park. We have been AirBnB hosts and guests for a while now and this was one of our best experiences yet!

Great place to stay outside of the city. Very safe and still close enough you can visit anywhere you want in a short period of time.

Lovely farm, great home. Excellent stay. Can't wait to stay again.

Exactly as pictured and described.

Scenic, comfortable, restful, friendly home. I'm looking forward to staying there again.

We really enjoyed our stay. The Sampler Room is very small but adequate. I think it would be especially useful for children of a couple staying in one of the other rooms. Everything was very clean and all the family we met were very helpful and sociable.

The great thing was that they generously accommodated us at the last minute. Same day reservation - woohoo! We didn't get a chance to meet Norma, but had a great conversation with Patrick, her husband, who was fun to talk to. Our dog had a great time running on their land. And it's so closer to Frederick, a lovely a city to walk around in.

This was the PERFECT place to spend an extended stay while nearby dealing with family matters. Norma and Patrick were kind and helpful in every regard. The accommodations are clean, comfortable and quiet, and I loved having coffee always available. (As well as an incredible value!) If I travel to the area in future I hope to be able to stay again at Norma and Patrick's.

Excellent experience overall, Norma and Patrick are great hosts. I am looking forward to staying again in the near future.

Nice quite neighborhood. The place was as nice as the pictures showed. There is grocery store and a gas station in the neighborhood. No washer and dry and the lack of a close laundromat is a small hassle. Kids can get a little loud, but when do kids not get to loud. Nice place to stay, would stay again if I ever get another assignment in the area.

Great host! Fantastic stay. Clean and cozy! Thank you Debbie!!!

We loved the privacy, the rural area, coffee with 'Doc' each morning and a very comfy bed! Highly recommend to those who prefer country roads to the busy city! Hope we can stay there again! Need at least 2 days for Gettysburg alone.

I have been traveling with AirBNB this summer and found the experience to be enjoyable and relaxing. This lodging is no exception. It is a spacious cottage (really meant for more than just one person) well equipped and comfortable. Debbie is an attentive host who makes certain that everything is in order before your arrival so that you feel assured that you will have no trouble finding the location or accessing it. There are also instructions for finding local grocery stores, restaurants and events. Since the cottage is on a very large property that is in the country - the quiet is very refreshing. A pleasant experience overall.

Couldn't be happier with our experience. Our family is in between homes and this cottage worked out perfectly. Debbie has been wonderful to work with and friendly. The cottage was clean and served all of our needs for an extended stay. Setting is peaceful and quiet!!

What fun to have the "barn-cottage" to ourselves for our Thanksgiving celebration. The kitchen and dining area worked well, and we enjoyed a family walk out to the pond in the woods.

My boyfriend and I came here for a weekend get away, we had an absolute amazing experience. A great place for down time and it has great scenic viewing in the backyard. Place is extremely clean and homey. The tv has Hulu and netflix which was fantastic. We also really enjoyed the quiet. Thank you Debbie!

Debbie was very nice and willing to make adjustment to help our stay be as comfortable as possible. She was a great host. We did not need a thing. The cottage was perfect for us, very clean and comfortable. The area and location was beautiful and close to everything. Thank you, Debbie for sharing your cottage with us.

The cottage was as presented. We enjoyed the privacy, space, and comfort of the apartment and the beauty of the surroundings. We fed Doc carrots; the treat was more ours than his. We will certainly reserve the accommodations again if the opportunity arises.
