My wife and I spent a long pre-Valentines weekend (Valentines Day was our 41st anniversary) at this rental. It is located on a more rural and less populated area, relative to the majority of Loudoun county--which is what made it appealing. We were greeted by Roberta when we arrived, soon followed by her husband Rich when he arrived home from work. They oriented us to the apartment and had a bottle of wine awaiting us to honor our anniversary, as well as breakfast goodies. They both were very welcoming!
The apartment was very clean and orderly, as well as comfortable. We prefer to fix most of our meals at a rental, and the kitchen was well stocked with the needed pots, pans, bowls and other cooking accessories necessary to prepare the food ingredients that we brought with us. We soon realized that there were no towels or dishtowels, but Richard immediately responded to our text and apologized for the accidental oversight.
Although Roberta and Richard live above the apartment, we did not hear their movements, voices, TV or music throughout our stay.
We both had lived in Loudoun county years ago and some of my wife's family still live there, so we weren't interested in too much sightseeing. The location was great for our needs, but would also be convenient for anyone wanting to see the county or take day trips to D.C., Harpers Ferry, Charles Town, or other area tourist areas. We spent considerable time each day within the apartment, as well as walking the minimally travelled road.
The only negatives were very minor: the shower stall was small, at least compared to our home shower space; the apartment entrance is on the opposite side of the house from the driveway, so it was a bit inconvenient to carry suitcases, boxes of food and frozen/cold items for meals, book bag and shoe bag into the apartment. This could be an issue for someone with limited mobility and no assistance with luggage, or during period of prolonged rain.
Despite these small negatives, we very much liked staying at the apartment. It is the best of 5 rentals in Loudoun county at which we have stayed. We therefore plan to stay there the next time we need a rental in Loudoun county.
