Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bowie

This house is uncommonly beautiful. There is something in every space worthy of contemplation whether it is coffee table in the living room that has a turn of the century industrial feel to the lacquered kitchen countertop that has sealed in the natural beauty. I spent the weekend in awe of its intricacies. I was in town for a wedding with my family, but noted how the whole house including the outdoor space included everything a beachfront house would have to enjoy an extended summer vacation for the whole family. Outdoor space was well equipped for outdoor activities and entertainment with fire pits, grills, hot tub, a plugin cooler for outdoor use. I only wish we’d been better suited to enjoy every aspect of the amenities provided. My favorite thing about this place was the view of the Chesapeake in all of her glory on full display from the living room window. Delightful.

We had a wonderful family reunion here with 3 generations. Each family had their own private space but there was tons to do on the property together as well. The hosts were very responsive to our questions and made sure we were comfortable and happy! We appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked, too.

Brooke was very responsive to all of my questions. She helped whenever needed. She contacted the place when there was a slight issue and ensured I was well cared for. I am incredibly pleased with Brooke.

Absolutely amazing! The place had so much to do whether it was outside or in! Swimming in the pool, hot tub, kayaking and/or paddle boarding on the lake, giant yard games. Inside had a pool table, wide variety of board games, and many streaming services. Brenda was extremely friendly and helpful in many way. She had a binder full of local places for food and things to do! She truly showed us the best of Maryland.

Great location with lots of locations walkable and nearby. Peaceful neighborhood and great place to stay. Brandon had lots of helpful recommendations for restaurants, bars, etc.

This was a beautiful waterfront home! This home was well equipped with everything you may need! The host was available if we needed anything! Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful home and a beautiful location. It was a relaxing environment with very accommodating host. Felt comfortable and would stay again.

Very nice place to stay near Gaylord convention center. Super clean condo. All the essentials are there. Lots to do at the resort as well as nearby walking distance. Having a baby in the group we did quite a bit of laundry. A laundry room was on our floor with two washers and four dryers and free of charge. We barely passed anyone on the seventh floor. We would def stay here again.

Jay and Linda are spectacular hosts, who have thought of virtually everything you could need during a stay away. We stayed with our 4 month old baby and dog, and felt very comfortable. Jay was lovely and made sure we had all our needs met. The backyard is truly a peaceful oasis, and it was great to be so close to the attractions of DC and return to a quiet sanctuary at the end of the day. Despite not having a full kitchen, Jay and Linda ensured we had all the comforts of home. We would absolutely stay again.

Amazing. Such a peaceful spot by the water. We had such a nice relaxing time. The RV was spotless and had everything we needed, and the outdoor space and kayaks kept everyone entertained all weekend. My whole family enjoyed their stay and talking to some of the other guests at night be the firepit. It was also fun watching everyone work on their boats. This airbnb is a hidden gem in Edgemere. We can’t wait to stay again!

A nice room with very comfortable bedding and well appointed bath in a lovely neighborhood. Just what we needed. Thank you!

Shawn's place is great! It is well-cared for and has everything you need to enjoy the indoors and the outdoors. The views of the water are beautiful and you can spend a lot of time watching the different birds. Getting there is easy and not far from restaurants and grocery stores. Shawn makes you feel special and wants to ensure you have a wonderful stay. Hope to go back soon.

David and Elizabeth’s place was perfect for my fiancé and our dog Kai. We attended a music festival at RFK and it was a short drive away. We actually ended up riding scooters back because it is so close by! There are so many restaraunts and things to do within walking distance. Check-in was super easy and it’s a very homey, comfortable space. The kitchen has a small fridge, toaster oven, microwave and hot plate with pots, pans, and everything you need to prepare a basic meal. We were able to set our dogs crate up (he’s a medium sized husky) perfectly and still had plenty of space to move around. Finding street parking was super easy and close by. You can hear noise from above at times for sure… ear plugs and a night time noise machine are provided to help. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Everything was great. Love the fact that it was only a 10min drive to the pool where my water polo tournament was held. I got lucky almost every night with parking, which was in front. One day I had to park around the corner but it wasn’t a far walk at all. They gave me places to eat and drink which worked out when I met an HS friend. Communication was great. Every other day or so they would check on me to see if I needed something, not in person but through messages. Which was great. Tv was loaded with apps, all you needed was you sign in info. Will totally rent from them again.

We stayed at Richard's house for 3 nights in late Spring. Its an amazing place, with great views from the rooms. There were lots of great places to see nearby.

My friends and I had an amazing stay at George’s place. The location was perfect, we weren’t far at all from the attractions we wanted to see. The unit was very spacious, beautifully decorated, and very clean. My favorite area was the patio and my friends enjoyed the shower with the jets after a long day of traveling. I would definitely stay again and recommend highly to anyone visiting DC.

Great place for a getaway! St. Michael’s is a wonderful town and so easy to get to from this lovely place! Was perfect location for our family ladies trip- plenty of space and just a quick trip down town to the shops and restaurants! - I think we’ll be back!

Absolutely loved this space. The location is great and allows for exploration of the city. The space itself was clean and spacious. My favorite piece was having access to the gym within the Fairmount hotel (if im not mistaken). Lastly, host(s) are extremely responsiveness. I had questions about the property prior to booking as i was booking extremely last minute and I received a quick response.

If you are looking at AirBNBs in DC and came across Greg’s listing, you can stop looking because you’ve found the one! My family of four (myself, my husband, and our two young teen daughters) stayed here during our trip to DC and it could not have been more perfect. Greg’s place has quality furnishings, a quality iron, nice towels and linens, is spotless, well-maintained and well thought out. His friendly labels in perfect places aid your stay. The hand soap, dish soap, lotion, dishwasher detergent, laundry supplies, and even coffee and other kitchen essentials were SO helpful and we appreciated it all! It felt like a home away from home. There are strategically placed multi plug units at the bedsides and desks so you won’t have to hunt for outlets, extra blankets and towels at the ready, and plenty of hangers. The use of a door code is easy and convenient, the location is quiet, safe, and walkable to two metros. I don’t think any AirBNB could ever top Greg’s and I would stay again!

It was a great place to stay. The days we went were quite rainy, and the house looked like a homestay nestled in the woods. The house was kept clean, cozy, and quiet, just what I needed after a long tiresome day. I enjoyed their book collections as well. Although, I couldn't make use of the local suggestions they had in the house, I'm sure it was well-curated. Overall, a fantastic stay in a safe place.

We found Paul’s home very comfortable and accommodating. Paul was accessible when we reached out to him and he communicated well with us. It was a very nice location with a fantastic view of the bay, as we hoped for.

Nathan has a lovely home—it feels like stepping back in time into one of old Washington’s charming houses. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, and communication with Nathan was excellent. The location is convenient, about a 25-minute walk to Capitol Hill. While the surrounding area could be better—the streets were a bit dirty—it wasn’t a big deal and didn’t affect our overall experience. We had a wonderful time in Washington, and staying at this house was definitely part of it. Thank you, Nathan!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The space was the perfect getaway for us and our pup especially loved all the walks nearby the property! The space was clean and well-decorated and felt like a relaxing escape from the city. Martha was very responsive and gave great recommendations for places to eat and take hikes. She even provided treats for our pup, which he loved! We are definitely coming back soon!

Great location with a variety of food options close by and located in a peaceful neighborhood. The space was welcoming and cozy.
