Perfection!

The setting is beautiful and peaceful. The home is warm and cozy. It was definitely a home away from home. A perfect location. relaxing and rural yet convenient and not far from town. We would definitely recommend it. We stayed for our daughters wedding, it was a perfect place to get ready and the photos were amazing.

A Great Fall Getaway

We were in town visiting family for a few days and had a wonderful stay at the farm. The beauty of the property is breathtaking and you'd be hard pressed to find a more spectacular view from the spacious front porch. Sue and her husband have thought of everything here to make the stay comfortable and complete. Highly recommended!

We loved staying in this country home on a horse farm. Susan and Jim are wonderful hosts. They were kind enough to let us weary travelers check in early. Jim invited our granddaughter to help him feed the horses and walk one to a stable. She loved the experience!

Great Getaway During Coronavirus

This house and the area were perfect for a long weekend getaway. After months at home, we were looking for a change of scenery and to avoid crowds. We enjoyed the house, the farm, all the nearby parks, and the winery. Staying here offered a much needed change of pace for our family.

Peace and solitude

Perfect place to rest, relax, read, whatever you want to do there. Central to many historic areas; 45 minutes to Gettysburg, 60-90 minutes to DC, 50-60 to Antietam, central to many others. Owners are awesome and very helpful. Place has about everything you need. Lots of wineries, breweries, restaurants, groceries within 20 to 30 minutes.

Excellent Stay

We had a great stay at Above All Else Windsong. Sue was fantastic! She put up a Christmas tree for us and made sure the house was spotless. She was very communicative before we arrived and even flew the Texas flag for us. We really appreciated Sue's hard work and attention to detail. We would absolutely stay here again.

Wedding weekend

This is a beautiful peaceful property. We loved sitting on the porch watching the horses and looking for bluebirds. The house is very well equipped and spotless. We also enjoyed walking the trails of the adjacent Audibom sanctuary. It was a perfect place for our family to stay to attend a nearby wedding.

Almost Heaven

Loved the setting of this property. Everything we needed to prepare and serve Thanksgiving dinner was available. They missed the mark on the beds which were all extremely uncomfortable and made it difficult to sleep for all guests. If beds were changed we would book here every year.

Great Holiday

This rental on a working horse farm in a private setting was an ideal location for our family to gather over the winter holidays. It was secluded enough to allow for privacy, quiet reflection, and the enjoyment of nature --- while convenient enough to access good roads and nearby towns for dining or shopping. The accommodations were generous for our family to stay, and even host larger gatherings at lunchtime - for others to celebrate the holiday together. Our hosts were gracious, accommodating, and helpful at every step.

Great place for a family get together

This was a great place for our adult children and us to get together for a family wedding. The house was spectacularly clean, the rooms were as they were described and the location was beautiful. There were horses in every field kicking up their heels and putting on a show for us charmed spectators. Jim and Sue were easy to work with and made us feel at home. This was a perfect place to relax and enjoy life.

Another wonderful stay at Above All Else!

Another wonderful stay at “The Farm” as we have come to call it! Our two grandsons had a blast helping Jim with the horses. And our daughter and her husband came over from Columbia to celebrate her birthday! And we drove to the Shady Grove Metro station and went into DC for a day! Great location, great people and waking up on the farm is a little piece of heaven!

Thanksgiving weekend

The house is just lovely, country setting and furnishings. Rooms were comfortable and furnished perfectly for the setting. The home was immaculate, and had all the necessities you would need - including individual shampoo and conditioner for those who (me) forgot to bring their own. The kitchen is stocked with whatever you would need to prepare and serve a meal. A true delight!

Feizet/Carmel family vacation

Our family of 9 thoroughly enjoyed our week at " the farm". Our 3 grandsons could not get enough of the barn and beautiful horses. We were able to relax and just be together. The house was spotless and very well appointed. Jim and Sue could not have been nicer. Our oldest grandson had his first riding lesson with Sue! We hope to come back soon! Connie Feizet

A little slice of heaven

Beautiful property nestled in the rolling hills of Maryland. Very peaceful and serene. Far from the noise and traffic but close enough to shopping and restaurants. Bedrooms and baths set up well. Scenery is awesome. Feeding the horses carrots was fun. Just hanging out on the front porch is nice and relaxing. Host welcomed us then left us to ourselves. We didn’t need anything that wasn’t already provided. Just an overall wonderful stay.
