A Happy Thanksgiving
Guest: Lisa
(California)
Date of Stay: 11/22/11
Review Submitted: 12/08/11
This is a very nice house in a beautiful neighbor hood. The kitchen was one of the best stocked kitchens of any "rental" property that we have ever stayed in. We were able to comfortably cook and serve a large Thanksgiving dinner. As well as the house worked for us, I think that the best part of our (first) VRBO experience was communication with the owners of this property. They were very friendly and super punctual. I would highly recommend this house especially if you have a large group that all wants to stay together.

Excellent choice for field trips

The house was in wonderful shape. Everything was ready and in good working order. We especially enjoyed the comfortable beds and superb kitchen. The yard was well-cared for. The area was peaceful. The neighbors were nice and cheerful. Our experience with the owners was positive. We think that it was a great value. We recommend it to groups touring the region.

D.C. in July

The home was spacious with a beautiful kitchen and eating areas, and great private spaces. I'm not sure I'd call it a mansion, but it is spacious. It did accommodate 15 of us nicely. The distance to the Metro was 20 minutes and then another 20 to get to the mall in D.C. It does have a 3-car garage but only one garage door worked. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. Unfortunately we were there for the record breaking heatwave -- and even being outdoors was exhausting! I knew it would be hot in July -- but not over 100 for days! What would make this location truly lovely, would be a deck or patio so people could enjoy the outdoors too (when weather permits) -- and maybe a built in gas grille!

Washington DC Vacation Homebase

We brought our kids and grandkids to experience DC as it was where we met and married. All 16 of us had a wonderful time. This house was great for giving everyone space and providing plenty to enjoy for all ages. It is convenient to the metro in Alexandria and a short drive to our favorite, Mount Vernon. It is great to have a place to stay which is more like home, providing comfortable surroundings and a place for everyone to share the joint and separate activities of the day. I heartily recommend this property.

We had a most enjoyable vacation last week with the house being our relaxing retreat after long days of walking, sightseeing and dining. We also enjoyed our Boston Bruins winning the Stanley Cup in your living room on that awesome tv! Downstairs we loved our dvd s playing on the huge screen and kicking back on the recliners. The children loved the theatre, also, as well as the game tables. Our youngest ,12, wants to lobby the olympic committee to make air hockey an olympic sport! Guess who beat everyone last week?! We were very happy to be greeted by a family of deer our first day and loved the firefly show every night! Dawn and dusk are the best times to view the deer. We had a large group and managed to have individual spaces when needed as well as together time in the common area, especially the awesome kitchen/long table area! Good space! The only drawback was that we had to leave!

Spacious and Comfortable Home
Guest: Bags
(Seattle, WA)
Date of Stay: 04/13/11
Review Submitted: 04/24/11
Our group of 7 adults enjoyed our stay in this large, comfortable home in a quiet neighborhood. We spent most of our time sightseeing in DC so only used the kitchen for breakfasts. The TV/cable worked and the WiFi was easy to access. A Safeway was nearby for groceries and we were about a 10 minute drive from a Metro train station which we used daily to get into the District (add another 15 minutes on the train). We liked being close to the National Harbor development and recommmend the Rosa Mexicana restaurant there. We would stay in thhis home again if we had a large group traveling to DC.

Family reunion to visit DC
Guest: Debbie
(Rochester, NY)
Date of Stay: 03/19/11
Review Submitted: 04/04/11
Our family of 11 included grandparents, their children and spouses and five grandchildren, aged 7 - 12. This home was a comfortable base to explore DC, but one needs to allow time to get into the city whether by metro, bus or car. I believe you trade the comfort and security of the home for easy access to the city. We all loved the house. Bedrooms were comfortable, kitchen was well-equipped, and the kitchen table was a great place to dine and play games. The children were delighted with the activities in the basement and also the presence of the creek in the backyard. They managed to build two bridges across the stream. We all have many nice memories of our time together.

Spring Break to DC
Guest: jc

Date of Stay: 03/12/11
Review Submitted: 03/24/11
Our family of 10 enjoyed our trip to DC. The grandkids loved the game room down stairs, the kitchen was well equipped for cooking and spacious enough to enjoy family meals. The place is 30 minutes from Union Station after 9AM and about 45 minutes back in the late afternoon. The owners were very easy to deal with and the facility had what was advertised. Safeway was 5 minutes away, recommend the family pizza place in the shopping center, when they advertise a large, it was much more than a large and great! It made for a great "Home" base...
Recommended for:Sightseeing.
Nice DC vacation
Guest: Kathy

Review Submitted: 01/01/11
My family stayed there for 5 days while visiting the DC area. It was so nice to have a home to come back to after a day of sightseeing, and this home was beautiful and spacious. We took advantage of the movie area, pool and foosball tables, and large kitchen. The beds were very comfortable too. During our stay, the downstairs heat stopped working and a repairman was at the house later that morning. The heat was fixed before noon, and we appreciated the speedy service. The house was clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The location was nice too ... only a few minutes from National Harbor and 20 - 30 to DC. The only thing that surprised us was the "multi-million dollar neighborhood." I'm not sure what the home values are in DC, but the neighborhood had decent homes (clean and quiet too) but they didn't look anywhere near multi-million, so that part of the description was a little deceptive but the rest of the house and property matched it's description perfectly. We would recommend this house and would love to stay there again sometime.

Business Trip to DC

Review Submitted: 12/16/10
I recently stayed in this home during a business trip to DC with several co-workers. The house was amazing, location fantastic, and rates average out to be much cheaper than any nearby hotels when staying with more than one person. The owners were extremely helpful and easy to work with. I have stayed in rental homes throughout the US, and this one has blown them all away.
