"Great"

Staybridge Suites Columbia Baltimore by IHG

Fox Cottage Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Great property for our stay with two dogs. Had everything we needed and super cute"

Spacious 5-bedrooms in Catonsville, MD near BWI, UMBC, Baltimore, Patapsco Park

10/10 Excellent

"Owner/manager Kathy was extremely helpful and responsive. We discussed the ADA aspect ahead of time and worked out any accommodations my wife would need to make. The property is conveniently located on a quiet street, close to stores and restaurants. The home was bright and comfortable, and we were all able to attend my son’s wedding, without worry.Note on ADA: there is a bathroom with a handgrip and bedroom on the ground floor. The halls and bathroom are a little narrow for a full wheelchair, so the individual will need to be able to ambulate using crutches or a walker. The front porch is one steep step up, and the entry is an additional small step."
