Photos and Description of the Thurmont vacation house rental
4 BR, 2 Full Baths, sleeps 9

In the foothills of Catoctin National Park (home of the Presidential Retreat, Camp David). Swimming, boating, hiking, waterfalls, Fall beauty. Skiing, golf, antiquing, all local and well done. Home moved and rebuilt in 2005 with all new kitchen, baths. On owner's farm, 1500 feet from main house. Built as luxury upscale guesthouse with the finest materials and craftsmanship. Bright and sunny, open and inviting. There is nothing 'rough' about this home!!!!! Very relaxing, great views and/or privacy. Minutes from food markets and restaurants. This is a property for the discriminating traveler who desires the highest quality. Please read our reviews- we are very proud!!!

The Best!!!: Sometimes you just have to brag- Chris and I ( and most guests) believe that this house far exceeds expectations. Our reviews speak for themselves. We really do attempt to make your stay just what you want it to be. You will always find this home in top condition and working order. We have attempted to set rates that are justified by this property ( again, most guests relate how fair it is, once they arrive, or as they depart. This is not a cabin in the woods- it is a home that took two years of great carpentry and masonry work to build, with no expense spared until it was completed. Please visit with us and give us your thoughts- we know they will be happy ones. Thanks Bill

Group of ladies went for the weekend and had a wonderful time. House is just as described above. It had EVERYTHING you could want or need for your stay. We went to the Detour Vineyard for wine tasting and had a great time. None of the ladies wanted to leave and we decided we will definitely rent the house in the future.

Great Girls Getaway

We booked the cabin at Breeches Pocket for a girls getaway a year in advance and it was well worth it. The cabin is beautiful and comfortable with picturesque surroundings. Offers easy access to Thurmont, as well as the Catoctin Park and various other places. Not too far from Hagerstown and Boonesboro either. We enjoyed gathering around the table each night playing games after dinner and watching movies. We are already planning to come back next year!

Great family vacation!

We really enjoyed our stay in Thurmont at Breeches Pocket. We are used to having to bring a lot of supplies when renting a house...we could have left most of it at home for this trip! They had nearly everything you could need, even toys, highchair, and pack n play for our kids. The bathroom situation is a little odd, you have to go through one bedroom to get to the bathroom. But we were all family and we made it work. The house has a lot of character and we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely consider going back if we wanted to vacation in the same area.
