The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. I really appreciated that Steve was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this booking to anyone looking in the area!
Comfortable and clean. The neighborhood felt safe with easy parking and accessible to all DC sites. Beds were comfy and kitchen/bathrooms were spotless with everything one might need, including plenty of towels. It was great having three bathrooms. There were a lot of stairs so this wouldn’t be the place for anyone with mobility issues.
This quiet home had plenty of space and was well stocked for our group of 5 to rest and eat in comfort while in the area to celebrate graduation at a DC university. A glitch in the cleaning process (fault of previous guest) was quickly addressed and resolved. Steve was proactive, responsive, and helpful.We would definitely stay here again when visiting DC!
Great place and close to the mall. This was a work trip for us and the house was clean, well maintained and Steve was excellent to work with. I would highly recommend a stay here!
Host was very responsive, very considerate. He went above and beyond to proved extra snacks for the crew while we were there for a work trip. overall stay was very nice and highly recommend.
This is a great place to stay. Very nice neighborhood. The property was clean, plenty of space and close to everything in DC. Would highly recommend this place if you are planning a DC trip!
Steve’s house was a fantastic find for our group of five. Everyone had their own bedroom and bath. Common areas were great, and the kitchen is equipped with every dish and utensil imaginable. The location is perfect for anyone on a DC visit— easy access to downtown and everything the city offers. Our only regret was that our stay was too short! Hopefully we’ll rectify that on our next visit. Five stars.

Hey Rob-
It was a pleasure to host you and your family! Looking forward to hosting you again the next time you’re in our nations capital!
My family and I came to VA for a family wedding, and needed a cozy spot for all 5 of us. This spot was perfect, the adults were all hpstairs and our adult kids were able to have their own space downstairs, TV and all. The house was very clean, then snacks and water were perfect (our plane was delayed) for our late arrival. The owner was fantastic in working with me and VRBO to add a night. Would definately book again if we find ourselves in VA again!
This house worked out great for our family’s visit to DC. It is nicely updated. Was very clean. Comfortable mattresses. Kitchen stocked with what we needed (we only ate breakfast there). Some nice amenities, including some snacks and waters and a fan in every bedroom. Plenty of room for us to spread out. Owner was responsive when we had a question.

Lisa was a fantastic guest! Looking forward to hosting her the next time she is in Washington D.C.
We were so pleased with the lovely home, especially for relaxing after a day of touring around DC. The two bedrooms on the lower level are comfy and have their own bathrooms and sitting area. The upstairs bedrooms had all we needed as well, each with own bathroom. We drove to the metro stop and parked but found easier to just Uber to Metro. Thank you to our host!
Super cute house! Fit all of us for our weekend stay! Parking was available right in front of house, which is such a huge thing when staying so close to the city! Easy in and out, super clean! All info available when you walk in the door! Extra blankets and pillows available in every room! The large shower in the basement was fantastic!!
Attention to detail was outstanding. Beautiful & charming residence with easy access to DC & outer areas. The kitchen, bedrooms, living room & TV room make it an ideal place for a family or small group of 5-7. Outside deck during the warmer months is a huge plus! Go for it, this is a best kept secret.
We wanted to be close to DC and in particular the Arlington Cemetary. We were a group of 6 adults (2 couples and 2 singles), and this fit our needs nicely with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The kitchen was well appointed, however we didn’t cook there. We went during the end of the Cherry Blossom Festival, and it was a 15 min drive to Arlington Cemetary and 20 min to the Mall in traffic. The owner communicated regularly and we had a great time.
Top-notch rental! Immaculately clean and well-equipped!
The Cozy Shanty house exceeded our expectations! We traveled to the DC area with another family for a quick two-night trip to do some sightseeing in the city. The house was a perfect distance to drive into DC and other surrounding attractions. The three adults slept comfortably on the main level, while the four teens had their own space downstairs.
The house was immaculately clean and exceptionally well-equipped. Attention to detail was top-notch. Thanks again, Steve!

About the host
Hosted by Steve win
I'm a Marine veteran calling Washington DC home. This family home is where we had the distinct joy to raise our kids in this very cul-de-sac. We are making our home available for other families looking to enjoy our nations capital while staying in a sensible home while away from home.
Why they chose this property
Picture a serene cul-de-sac tucked away in a suburban haven, embraced by a canopy of trees that sway gently in the breeze. The houses, each with its unique charm, exude a welcoming aura, adorned with well-tended gardens bursting with colors—a testament to the care and love of their inhabitants.
What I cherish most about this idyllic neighborhood is the palpable sense of camaraderie and connection. It’s in the smiles exchanged during impromptu gatherings, the willingness to lend a helping hand, and the genuine interest in each other's lives.
And amidst this peaceful tableau, the bonds of this tight-knit community remain steadfast, nurturing the essence of what makes a quiet, family-oriented cul-de-sac a cherished haven for those who call it home.
What makes this property unique
Ultimately, what makes my property stand out is the intangible—the feeling of home it evokes, the memories waiting to be made within its walls, and the endless possibilities it offers for those seeking not just a house but a place to weave their own narrative of comfort and belonging.
What truly distinguishes my property is its versatility. It’s not just a home; it’s a canvas waiting for new adventures. Whether it’s hosting intimate gatherings, resting after a day in the city, or celebrating life accomplishments, it's the place that is spacious to host everyone while giving everyone enough private space to get ready, change, and have bathroom privacy.
