Perfect location and space for a family Christmas in DC

our daughter is an RN and had to work over the holidays, so I looked for a home to rent to bring Christmas to her. This property had just the right spaces to enjoy movies together, an amazing kitchen to prepare meals, a great location, and enough bathrooms for each to have their own. Not to mention a beautifully decorated tree!

Comfortable, well-located, premium stay

Our family of 5 (a couple, grandparent, and two young children, 4 and 1 years old) stayed for two weeks and felt very comfortable in this great house. Lots of amenities and hospitable touches to make you feel welcome. We found the proximity to DC as well as easy access to VA highways very convenient. Highlights were the well-stocked kitchen (a true chef’s kitchen) and the cinema room. It’s in a quiet neighborhood with a cul-de-sac (no noise from traffic) and we enjoyed evening strolls with our children. We also worked from home and found the internet and workspace setup excellent. I highly recommend this property and would book again the next time we are in the NoVa/DC area!

This home was a great family gathering place for our son's graduation.

We traveled to Virginia for our youngest son's graduation from Georgetown. His older siblings and family were traveling in from different areas - driving and flying. The house had easy access to the highway and DCA, and it housed all - age six months to 65 - in comfort. It was a quick drive to Georgetown - under ten minutes barring DC traffic, and fifteen minutes to DCA. Our hosts were caring, making our arrival pleasant with some thoughtful goodies, and our departure convenient. We cannot thank them enough for making our graduation weekend wonderful.

Lovely home near D.C.

This property is well maintained and lovely. The gourmet kitchen is fabulous and is perfect for a family gathering! All the bedrooms were perfect, towels were provided in each room. The owner is a lovely man who greeted us at the door for checking in even at a late hour. He provided many amenities such as soap and shampoo. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return trip in the future.

Mixed Thoughts II

The owner did quite a lot to accommodate our trip and assist us with our three young kids. The house is nice however there still seems to be a noticeable smell downstairs that wouldn't go away. We bought air fresheners and kept the windows open but the smell was always there. We were sleeping in the downstairs bedroom which was carpeted and had difficulty sleeping because of the smell. With new carpets and understanding where the smell is coming from and taking care of it, it would be a delightful house to stay in.

Wedding Weekend

The Arlington home worked out well for our family who were in town for our son's wedding. The kitchen is the highlight of the home. It was so well stocked with serving items, utensils, small appliances, etc., great for cooking and setting up a buffet for our family and friends for a welcome gathering and brunch after the wedding. We brought many items from home with us not knowing what to expect, but didn't use all we brought. The Viking range and two beautiful wall ovens are a cook's dream. The refrigeration/freezer space was a challenge given the extensive cooking appliances available. Having two wine coolers available were extremely helpful. The dining room and table was large to accommodate our family as well as the couch and chair in there as well. It was great being able to access the porch on the front of the house from the office on the other side of the dining room wall. The rocking chairs and little tables out there were a very nice touch and provided extra seating for our guests as well as a quiet place to relax. The family rooms with large TVs and ping pong table were a great addition to the entertainment for our young guests, as well as the board games available. We did bring some lawn games to use as well but used them on the front lawn not in the back yard. The 4 bedrooms were very convenient. Master bedroom bed extremely high for me so I could have used a step stool to get up on the bed. I am 5'4". It was a challenge each night. Several of the closets had many personal items in them so we were hesitant to use them. It would be helpful if personal items could be pushed to one side as they were in the Master bedroom walk in closet. The downstairs bedroom closet couldn't be used at all for my son to hang his tuxedo and suits up because it was filled wall to ceiling. It would be helpful if some space was left available in there to use. The downstairs shower was wonderful. Great water pressure and easy to access. I used this since the shower/tub in the master bath was too difficult to get out of because it was so deep (Jacuzzi tub) and I am only 5'4". My husband at 6'1" used Master bath but warned me of the challenge of getting out. I know it sounds old but some type of grab bar might be installed as a precaution for renters. Especially since you have to climb up a step to get on the ledge of the tub and then go down into the tub. Overall the house worked out well for our family wedding weekend.The owner was very helpful, friendly & accessible.

Perfect Location

My family traveled to Arlington for my Uncle's service and internment at Arlington National Cemetery on June 6. This home was perfectly located. My son and his family thoroughly enjoyed the downstairs entertainment areas, the kitchen was spacious and beautifully equipped, and the dining room large enough to accommodate all of us. The bar stools, however, were too high to sit comfortably at the large kitchen counter. We used all four bedrooms but there were no curtains in the bedroom with the single bed which was disappointing. Lighting in the two smaller bathrooms was a bit dark and the master bath tub/shower was tricky to get in and out of, but everything was clean and comfortable. The owner was especially accommodating, helpful and friendly.

John's Graduation

The house worked out beautifully for our Georgetown graduation. It was large enough to accommodate all the relatives travelling from afar. The kitchen was amazing. We felt right at home with several cooks. Our celebration gathering was great too with the location of the large dining area off the kitchen. The weather was pretty enough that we enjoyed the back yard patio. I could not have asked for more. As to the other review comment on the mattress in the master. They were correct it was extra firm, but with my back I woke every day feeling just fine. I would rent it again without a second thought.

Great home fantastic kitchen

The property owner was very helpful. The kitchen is a chef's dream, really gorgeous and is fully stocked. We were in town for a funeral at Arlington National and this home was very convenient. The kids loved hanging out in the downstairs living room and had fun with the ping pong table. Our mother the chef loved the kitchen and big dining area which provided room for everyone to gather. Chuchi was extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend this home. One thing to note, the master bed is very firm-I usually like firm mattresses, but this one bordered on a little too much. But, other than that, everything was great.

mixed thoughts

The owner was lovely to work with. Very kind and prompt with emails. The kitchen was gorgeous and the flow into the dining room was perfect for our luncheon. The location was quiet. The biggest issue I had was the stench on the first floor. It smelled like wet dog. It was so pungent that it we could not use the the 2 rec rooms on the first floor. No tv's in any of the bedrooms. The yard needed some work. It's clear that they have big dogs which i'm not opposed to. It was the odor. It was terrible.

Outstanding home at a great price!

I stayed here for a weekend with four other friends and we had zero complaints about our stay. Plenty of beds and TVs for everyone. The location is nice and quiet and near plenty of things to do. The best part of all is the kitchen. Absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this home to anyone staying in the DC area.
