We had such an amazing time staying at Three Otters! Rich was such a fantastic host - it was very easy to get in touch with him and he was so helpful throughout our stay. I host an annual summer camp for friends and this was the perfect spot. We spent so much time hanging out down by the river, playing games on the big field, and enjoying time by the fire pit. The one downside was that the weekend we stayed at Three Otters it was 95-100 degrees outside and it was difficult to find places where we could all be together (36 people) and cool off with AC! In the evenings when it was a little cooler, the grill pavilion, new community yurt, and river overlook were all beautiful and fun spots to spend time. I would absolutely book here again!

We stayed at 3 Otters for a family reunion and it was absolutely gorgeous. Located on the Potomac river, if you're looking for a getaway from everyday life and your 9 to 5, definitely look here. Several Yurts to sleep in, a wonderful linai, a grill patio, beautiful garden with vegetables to pick, vintage campers and a great grill patio with screens to protect against bugs. This huge property is great for gathering and at the same time offers many spots to simply "get away" from the group for those who are a little overwhelmed with large parties. Def recommend, 5 out of 5 stars!

The grounds was a perfect location for my group of 25 people. The different housing options worked great for everyone and provided a new experience for many. The staff was extremely helpful but did not interfere with any of our group activities. Highly Recommended.
