Hi James! I’m so sorry you didn’t figure out the TV! I will try to write down some sort of guidelines because we do have Fios with cable channels plus access to all the streaming channels! I find when I’m there I just keep pressing buttons till I find what I want, but I will try and make it clearer for your next stay! Thank you for your feedback, Miranda

Lovely Stay in Forest Glen

We had a great week in Forest Glen visiting family and exploring DC. The house was a perfect size for our family. The massage chair in the family room is a great addition, and was welcoming after long days of walking. The proximity to the metro was nice. We drove our car to the park in ride almost every day and only drove into the city once. We were able to host my husband’s parents twice for nice family dinners and the kitchen is well stocked. Overall we had a wonderful experience. Miranda was an attentive and gracious host, every time I had a question.

Lovely spot, just some minor mixed messages

The house itself was great! We loved the location and it worked wonderfully for our stay. Well equipped, clean, and enjoyable. Our only real problem was that online and in emails, checkout time was listed as 11:00. However, in the notebook left on the kitchen counter, 11:00 had been scribbled out and replaced with 10:00. That makes a big difference in getting out on time! We decided to go with the 10:00, just to be safe. Good thing we did- the cleaners showed up at 9:40. But overall, a fabulous visit. Would recommend.

Lovely stay in beautiful Forest Glen Haven

Thank you to our host for sharing your lovely Forest Glen Haven with my daughter and me. The neighborhood was beautiful, and the view of a Swiss Chalet and Pagaoda was a pleasant surprise. We hope to return someday to explore this area more. I am a horse lover, so I enjoyed the equestrian memorabilia. We had everything we needed and a short drive to visit family.

Fairytale Cottage

We were visiting from Florida and South Carolina. The home was perfect!!! Only .8 miles from the metro station and it had so much room. We came to see the capital and the Smithsonian buildings. We had a hreat time! The owner has a booklet in the home with everything you could want to know. The kitchen and bathrooms looked like they have all been updated. The bedrooms were comfortable and had plenty of room for allbof our stuff. Across the street there is a place that looks like a castle and another that is a pagoda. It felt like a fairytale setting. Lovely home with a great owner. I would recommend stayingvhere.

A wonderful weekend!

We loved the warm, welcome, and spacious feel of the home. The many common rooms created spaces for a variety of activities: the sunroom for enjoying the fresh air and private backyard, the large dining room table to gather around for a family meal, the living room overlooking the verdant front yard, the cozy tv/game room for relaxing with friends, and the quiet, upstairs nook for reading a good book. We were busy with family and friends visiting for graduation so there wasn't time to explore the immediate neighborhood, although I would have liked to. However, we availed ourselves of the plentiful stores nearby for the groceries and other supplies we needed. Miranda was very responsive when we had issue with the internet, which was quickly resolved. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to relax and spend time with family and friends!

A total GEM!

What a gem! My family of 4 had an amazing stay at Forest Glen Haven. Having grown up in Silver Spring, I am familiar with the area and was excited to get to stay across from the old seminary. The neighborhood is awesome-- we enjoyed taking the self-guided walking tour of the former seminary grounds, got to learn about the history of the area, and loved how close Rock Creek Park was-- just a short walk along the Ireland Trail takes you right to Rock Creek Trail. Sniders Superstore is within walking distance (1 mile) right down the road (almost all on a sidewalk) and the Forest Glen Metro Station is only 1 mi/ a 20 minute walk in the opposite direction. The house itself is a beautiful old brick house, built in the style of so many Silver Spring and DC houses. The house is old, but really doesn't show its age, with a modern updated kitchen and two full baths. The beds were amazingly comfortable, the den well-suited to family movie night, the dining room able to seat 8, and the living room perfect for entertaining our local family members. Parking was also fantastic as the driveway can comfortably fit 3 cars, 4 if you plan ahead, and that is a super-find for this neighborhood with narrow streets and limited street parking. We did have 1 house issue that the host responded to immediately and handled so well. All in all we loved our stay and would 100% recommend it for anyone in the area! The host, Miranda, was extremely responsive and welcoming. We were so sad to leave but will

Super dusty

There's some false advertising - the futon is unusable, disgustingly dusty. Otherwise: The kitchen and three bathrooms are pristine and nicely redone, the a/c works. Sheets and towels are clean and beds comfortable. The rest of the house has old furniture hidden by slipcovers, dusty and rugs that are dirty. The house is close to the highway and you can smell and hear it loudly outside and patio furniture is not appealing. Yuck I was glad to leave.Longer story: The property is advertised as having a useable futon, so I messaged the manager as soon as I booked the property asking for it to be made up. When we arrived it was not made up, and when unfolded the futon, a cloud of dust rose up from it. I gave it a pat and wow, dust. The floor behind the futon dusty with chips of paint from the baseboard. It had original baseboards so I wondered about lead paint chips and dust. The rug under the futon was yuck. There was a beat up dirty vacuum in the kitchen closet that I took upstairs to vacuum the futon and the area around it. When I was done my clothes, hands and hair were covered in dirt. The vacuum had no carpet or floor attachment, only the small attachment for furniture, so I don't know how they're cleaning the rugs. There were no pillows, blankets or sheets for the futon so I messaged the manager, and two maids came and made up the futon. We were only there only two nights so I let my teen sleep there but yuck, all our clothes went straight into the washing machine. Gross.

Hi Jill, thank you for your feedback. The room in question is not advertised as a bedroom, and we're sorry to hear that you were disappointed and felt the home did not meet your expectations. In an effort to address your concerns, we provided new pillows for that space—even though it is not designated as a bedroom—in hopes of enhancing your experience. We strive to maintain transparency in our listing details and will be removing the futon from the listing to avoid any future misunderstandings. We’re committed to excellent guest experiences, as reflected in the consistent positive feedback we receive.

Forest Glen

We really enjoyed learning about the area of Forest Glen. The house itself was nice. The kitchen had everything we needed. We really appreciated the Starbucks coffee! The water was nice and hot and the water pressure was amazing. We enjoyed looking through the booksThe check in/out process was seamless. One strong recommendation I have is the mattresses and pillows in all three bedrooms need to be replaced. They were not comfortable for any of us Thank you :-)

From the owner: "Hi Pattie, we're so happy you enjoyed the history of the neighborhood during your stay. However, we’re sorry to hear the mattresses and pillows didn’t meet your expectations. We understand that sleep comfort is highly personal, and we personally prefer firmer mattresses. We truly want every guest to be comfortable, so if you choose to stay with us again, we’d be more than happy to provide mattress toppers upon request to help improve your experience. Thank you again for your helpful feedback; it’s always appreciated."
