This River House is located on the Monocacy River with a beautiful open view of the river and the Antietam National Battlefield on the opposite shore. Downtown Frederick, Maryland is just 3 miles away and offers a fun variety of restaurants, pubs, breweries, shopping and cultural activities. Your getaway could be taking in the scenic view, drifting down the river or heading into downtown Frederick for some lively entertainment. Bring your fishing rods! The Monocacy boasts large and small mouth Bass, carp, and catfish. A brick charcoal barbecue grill is offered for outdoor grilling.
There are 3 units available in the River House, with this spacious and private studio occupying the entire water view side of the 1st floor. The studio is designed with several large windows and 2 sliding glass doors to provide wonderful views of the river. Hickory hardwood floors shine throughout with cedar closets. This new construction includes a kitchenette with microwave oven, refrigerator and coffee maker. Entertain, visit, or enjoy some quiet reading time in the sitting area with a full-size couch and 2 captain’s chairs. The studio provides a large full bath with tub/shower and direct access to the private front deck of the building. With a queen size bed and a dining booth that converts to a double bed, the studio can sleep a total of 4 persons. The dining booth/bed convertible is 72" by 48" when it's converted to a bed, so it may not be suitable for tall adults. There is also free access to a full-size washer and dryer.
Pets are welcome at an additional fee but must be crated when unattended.
We have had some issues with noise from the Villa (2nd floor) making it hard for guests in the two lower units to sleep. So, there is an 11 pm excessive noise curfew for the Villa when either of the lower units is occupied. Also, we recently installed several hundred cubic ft. of cellulose sound dampening insulation in the ceiling of this unit to re-mediate the issue.
Pets under about 50 lbs are welcomed at an additional fee of $40 per pet, per stay, but must be crated when unattended. I can make exceptions to the fee structure for small dogs or multiple pets.
In support of the global effort to conserve energy resources utilizing reasonable practices, we have installed Ecobee “smart” thermostats in all of our listings that the guests can also control. The thermostats are preset with a maximum heating setting of 72 degrees and a minimum cooling setting of 72 degrees.
