Perfect for Family Reunion

This is a perfect house for a family reunion in Occoquan and more than ample space for 6+, with a spacious upstairs master bedroom with amazing deck and view and two downstairs bedrooms, each with two twin beds. In addition, the spacious family room was the perfect gathering place for the entire extended family in the area.Checking in and out is super easy with the digital lock, and Fred is easily accessible both through VRBO and texting.

Great property but had a leak.

The property was great. But there was an issue with a leak In the upstairs restroom. When the shower would be turned on in the master room, the water would leak into the living room area which was located under the the master, in the first floor. I contacted the agent about the issue and he only asked me to check again if it was to leak. Upon advising him it was in fact leaking again. I never heard back. And nothing was done to attempt to fix the issue. This made the stay very inconvenient due to only having one shower for 7 ppl who stayed at the residence. This made us loss valuable time each day on our trip. I would hope that this issue gets properly fixed before the next occupants stay at the location. If I would have known there was that issue I would have booked another location. Dealing with a leak from a shower to a living room was not something I was to deal with on my vacation.

Staycation

Family staycation away from home. Family and Friends got together for a relaxation hang out. The house is nuzzled in a small riverfront town with wonderful little shops decorated in Christmas spirit. The house itself beautiful wood molding, spacious living room, and great bedrooms. Thank you so much for hosting us and sharing your wonderful home.

Nice place

Eclectic Furnishings but pretty comfy place. Some of the floors bowed significantly in the family room and upstairs bedroom and the outside looks like it could use some attention. We enjoyed our stay as the location was great.

About the host

Hosted by Fred

Why they chose this property

This property was built by hand by Benjamin McKenzie in 1950s. He was a fighter jet pilot during WWII and later on became a commercial airline pilot after the war. He and his family lived here for many years prior to being purchased by us. Once we purchased this property we completely remodeled the interior but it still has the vintage original feeling and soul with a modern twist. The house has 3 acres of beautiful land that's great for walking and biking.
