Ellicott City, Maryland
Original structure built between 1770-1790’s. Built into the granite hillside it’s current structure dates back to 1875. Sitting off the main Rd facing the Patapsco river and the B&O Railroad. First portion of tracks in the nation. In walking distance of ole Ellicott City away from the Main Street traffic. Perfect location for road and mountain bikers around and in the Patapsco Valley State Park. Great place for Foodies, anitquers, and of course History Buffs. Outdoor patio area. Fenced in. Animals allowed. Four smart TVs. WIFI available. Free parking. NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE. TALL PEOPLE INSENSITIVE REGARDING specific Areas of house.
Love the property and the eclectic atmosphere this 1875 home brings. Quick walk downtown to enjoy the holiday lights, shops and restaurants. Would stay here again for future stays.
We stayed a few nights and loved the little town and house. The owner has thought of everything! We very much appreciated all the love she’s given to this historical home. I saw another review complaining of road noise and difficulty using the bathtub shower, but we live on a busy road and we thought the tub/shower combo was unique and appropriate for the home. The dog loved the yard! I was impressed with how there was no evidence of pets being allowed- no pet hair anywhere. (Although the owner had left pet food/water bowls… very thoughtful!)
This is our second time staying at this cute historic house. The property is comfortable and relaxing and very clean. We enjoyed sitting out in the evening in the side yard to recharge after spending the day sightseeing with local friends and family. We will definitely be back again!
We stayed for two nights while researching the area for a possible move. It is a wonderful historic home with tons of character! It is right on the main road, but unlike others who complained about the noise we found the occasional passing vehicle very easy to tune out. The place was extremely well equipped and clean.
We enjoyed our stay in your interesting, old house, especially being so close to the river and Merriweather Post Pavillion.
We had a really pleasant stay at this cottage. Everything was listed accurately. We spent most of the weekend sitting in the living room or outside in the garden chatting, eating and drinking. As some other reviews noted, the double bed was a little small for us (parents) but our daughters were fine with their bed. The road traffic, though noticeable, did not interfere with the atmosphere. Thanks a lot.
I needed a pet friendly property for a quick weekend trip. This house fit the bill just great. Note that the yard is fenced, but if you have really adventurous dogs, there are probably opportunities for escape. Everything in the house worked great and was just as advertised. Bed time as really comfy! Also, really close to the main street area of Ellicott City, but far enough away to be nice and quiet. Thanks for a great stay.
We enjoyed our stay in this unique home. I love antiques and history, so I especially appreciated that the house has lots of character and charm. I’m thankful the owner allowed our dogs to stay as well. Overall, we had a pleasant experience, and we thought it was an interesting break from cookie cutter hotel rooms. Thank you!
The house is exactly as pictured, quaint, rustic historic. There are a couple of things that should be mentioned that would make another group's stay more pleasant. We are big people, and the beds were just double and not comfortable. There are coaches but we did not try them. Frederick Road is a very busy highway with a great deal of traffic noise. If a group wants quiet, this stay is not recommended. The kitchen is not stocked as well as it could be. If a group wants to cook there are only a couple of full-size plates and they are clear glass and only 5 forks and we had 8 adults. Only a couple of small skillets. The grills are small portable webers. There is plenty of space downstairs and outside to spread out, but not enough seating for everyone in the same area at once.
Very old house was expected, but was disappointed with the reality. Lots of stair climbing. Main bathroom’s claw footed tub was set up very high on a “platform” was difficult to get in and out of, ended up bruising my leg pretty badly getting out of tub. Kitchen lacked pots and pans we could use and there was no frying pan. The parking was less than desirable, but at least is was off the road. Would not stay here again.
