Great neighborhood, quiet, safe w good restaurants in the area. The house was well stocked for families inclusive of high chair and pack and play. The outside patio was great to grab a little sunshine and coffee in the morning. And really appreciated the prompt and real time communication with the owner. Would stay again!

Fantastic place to stay!

We can't say enough about how happy we are to have secured this property for our week long trip to DC. The communication with the owners was always timely and very helpful. The location is extremely convenient: there are several quaint restaurants easily within walking distance (think 3-5 minute walk), the nearest grocery store (Safeway) is only a 10 minute walk, and getting to and from sightseeing in the city is anywhere from 15-30. The neighborhood is very well maintained and feels truly like a community (at all times of the day people are walking their dogs, pushing babies in strollers, exercising, bringing food home for dinner). It feels extremely safe to walk around and getting Ubers/Lyfts usually only takes 5 minutes. The property itself is well kept and looks just like what is advertised. It has all the modern amenities you'd want (washer/dryer, toaster oven, large fridge, microwave, coffee maker, juicer, mounted tv, AC, etc). We have stayed in a lot of VRBOs, and this one tops the list. We really enjoyed our stay at this property and would encourage anyone else to do the same :)

Truly a home away from home

We were in town for a few functions and lots of sightseeing with a 7 year old so this location was perfect. Great neighborhood! We walked to the Metro, the park and the grocery store. The house is an old- school Washington row home that's been tastefully and comfortably renovated. I grew up in DC so the style of house brought back lots of memories. Walking in the front door truly felt like we were coming home. The kitchen was spacious and fresh. The beds were great and the bathrooms were clean and attractive. The house has all the conveniences-washer and dryer, dishwasher, A/C and plenty of hot water. We loved the entire experience and would stay here again in a minute!

Great location and hosts!

We visited our daughter for Mother’s Day weekend and this place was perfect. Lots of walkable restaurants and parks nearby! Perfect kitchen/dining room table for playing card games, etc. Comfy beds but could have used a few more pillows. Enough room for us to spread out in this cozy home for a little nap time if needed. Wonderful kitchen with anything you need! Best of all, super responsive and kind hosts to the few questions/requests we had.

Delightful

This was a wonderful spot for our family to stay while celebrating our sons wedding nearby. Very homelike feel in a very safe neighborhood. We were too busy to explore much by walking around, but this is a nice place. There was some issue with VRBO not showing this as a trip in my account, but an email to the owners got a rapid response to clarify my questions. Highly recommended.

Perfectly quaint town home

We had a great family vacation to DC and our stay at this VRBO made the trip that much better. Very clean, nicely decorated with all the amenities you’d need between kitchen, entertainment and bathroom. We had three young kids and the bedrooms for them were great. Grocery store a few blocks away and two great restaurants, one breakfast and one dinner away. I would book this again 1000%.

Perfect location for a family trip to DC. We parked our car out front and left it for the most part and rented Capital Bike Share every day and it worked perfectly. The house was clean and comfortable and safe and a great location to tour the area and see the tourist sites we wanted to visit. Highly recommend this great VRBO! Very nice and responsive hosts when I had questions.
