Hard to fault this little gem of a place. The furnishings are lovely and it's well equipped. Some nice little touches, like motion-sensitive lights in key places, a five-port USB charging station, and lovely bed linens. The neighborhood is nothing special, but if you need something in this part of MD, where there are few-to-none decent hotels, you can't go wrong.
We could not have picked a more perfect place for our family Thanksgiving. This beautiful home had a great layout and accommodated our different ages and needs so well - we each had a bit of our own space and nice areas for us to gather as a family. The house is charming and so well appointed and the art is such a lovely touch. The owner, Laura, could not have been easier to communicate with and was very responsive. We would definitely love to stay again if our paths lead us back to the Baltimore area!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is clean, well-organized and comfortable. My husband and I, along with our adult kids and their partners, stayed for the weekend to attend a nephew's wedding. Three king beds kept us all comfortable; my husband and I enjoyed the upstairs suite. The kitchen had all the necessary tools, the linens were very nice and the vibe was welcoming. Great and interesting art. We were busy and it was rainy so we didn't get to enjoy the front porch or rear fire pit area unfortunately. Laura's communication was excellent; prompt, kind, helpful. Highly recommend take out crab cakes from nearby Pappa's seafood. The neighborhood was perfect for us as it was very close to the wedding, and the house was a great value for the space. Would definitely stay again.
Home is as pictured. Clean with every essential covered ( charging station, night lights, kitchen supplies, plenty of towels ). Comfortable beds and spacious master suite. Attentive host . Would definitely return!
From the time I found this booking to the time we left the property, Laura was fantastic. She was very prompt to respond to my messages and so helpful with things. We arrived a little early to the area, and adjusted the time for us. It was only 15 minutes early, but it meant a lot. I cannot say enough positive things about this house, the neighborhood and the host. The next time we come to the Baltimore area, I will definitely make sure I check this listing first.
This was perfect, very nicely decorated, property offered everything you needed from complimentary coffee, tea, hot chocolate, snacks, canned drinks, board games, seasonings, first aid kit. Mrs. Laura though of “everything.” Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.
We were a group of 8: 4 moms with 4 17-year-olds, in town for a lacrosse tournament at Goucher College. This was the first time we did a rental as a group rather than a hotel and it was the best choice! Laura is a wonderful host and provides so many wonderful little touches to help guarantee a great stay. From the full size shampoo/conditioner and body wash in the showers to the seltzer and snacks in the kitchen, the little extras were thoughtful and appreciated, including the brand new toothbrush available for one of the boys who forgot theirs. We found the house tastefully decorated, comfortable and spacious for our group. We loved the front porch and enjoyed a fire out back the one evening. A very kind neighbor provided some wood/kindling and the owner had stocked fire starters. The programmable, full size coffee pot was appreciated for the early morning wake-ups! And the beds were very comfortable and the upgraded linens appreciated. The location is very quiet and peaceful with quick access to Goucher and Towson. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to come back! - BTBZ moms
Great place
We had a relaxing and wonderful time. The house is superb … nothing out of order and I needed to take only my clothes. Laura is very accommodating to anyone’s needs. I would love to stay again to relax. Thank you.
We came into town for a funeral for my grandmother and Laura was extremely accommodating with very short notice. We have stayed in many VRBO locations and this was the most well stocked well organized one we've ever stayed at. I highly recommend this central to everything, clean, beautifully decorated and we felt at home!
What a great place to stay. We were there for work. 4 guys and never felt cramped. Very clean and comfortable. Well stocked. Quiet neighborhood. Laura was a great host and we look forward to returning at a later date.
Very clean and comfortable apartment. Close to everything we needed to get to.
We stayed at Laura's property to be with our daughter for family weekend at Townson University. This property is only a 10 minute drive (if that) to the U. Laura has thought of EVERYTHING. Every amenity that you can think of was available...even the little things that you may forget and would expect from a nice hotel. The apartment was super clean and tastefully decorated...we felt entirely at home here. Will definitely stay again when visiting our daughter. I cannot say enough about this place...10 out of 10!!!
We were delighted with the accommodations and Laura is a wonderful host. This property is about 10 minutes from Towson’s campus, is well appointed with great art and comfortable furnishings.
Delightful
Our third stay at this lovely apartment. We will be back.
Dear Laura, Thank you so much for making me and my son feel like being at home. Whenever we needed something , you were there to help us . Our experience in Parkville was not only the most cosiest one but also gave us a lifetime friend ?
Laura Amussen has created a vacation home that anyone would be proud to call home. The king-size bed was very comfortable, the neighbourhood is very quiet, and Laura has anticipated every possible need of her guests. What makes this an exceptional vacation home is not just the high quality of the furnishings, but the art works that are displayed on the walls and the occasional table. Check-in was easy and Laura always responded promptly to any questions we had - she is an excellent communicator. We will definitely try to come back to Om Away From Home whenever we are in the Baltimore area. Thank you, Laura, for your superb hospitality!
Excellent location in quiet neighborhood. Close enough to the ballgames, casinos and racetrack without being in the the heart of the city. The apartment is clean and well laid out for two couples with and landlord that thought of everything that could be needed. Lovely place and we will be back if coming back to the area.
We just returned from our second one-week stay at this comfortable and beautifully decorated apartment. We'll be back again in July.
This was a perfect spot for us to stay while visiting MD. It was very clean, comfortable, cozy and quiet. Just what we needed. I would definitely stay there again.
