Here Are A Few King Words From Our Past Guests:
☆ "Great location away from too many distractions yet right by everything in the city if needed. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay. This place beats 99% of other options in the area!" - Darian
☆ "Couldn't have asked for a better place it was a beautiful home with everything you could possibly need and more." - Sheree
☆ "Blair was fantastic to deal with and very helpful. The rental was probably the cleanest I’ve stayed in, and I travel a lot. Comfortable warm beds and beautifully designed." - Lena
☆☆ BEDROOMS + BATHROOMS ☆☆
Each of the home’s bedrooms is designed with guest comfort in mind. Fall asleep in comfortable beds and wake up refreshed for another exciting (or relaxing!) day at the beach.
There are three stylish bedrooms. Get away from the world in a spacious primary ensuite. The other two bedrooms share a second full bathroom.
☆☆ KITCHEN & DINING ☆☆
The kitchen and dining area offer plenty of room to comfortably host family dinners and are outfitted with all the cookware, dishes, utensils, and appliances you will need to cook delicious meals. The dining table can seat up to eight.
☆☆ LIVING SPACES ☆☆
The main level has a living room with two large, comfortable couches and seating for eight.
☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆
While there are plenty of outdoor activities nearby, the house also provides its own outdoor sanctuary for guests to enjoy. We invite you to relax in the backyard or on the deck. There are plenty of seating areas for guests to sip morning coffee or enjoy a happy hour drink as the sun goes down. There are string lights to provide ambient lighting.
Your safety matters. This property has a Ring camera with audio at the exterior part of the house, this will be on at all times but don’t worry, it does not look into interior spaces.
Looking to visit Washington, DC or a cabin getaway in Harpers Ferry? We have several comfortable and stylish homes in the area. Check out our profile or message us for details!
☆☆☆☆ Pet Policy ☆☆☆☆
We allow up to 4 adult dogs if we approve them ($25 pet fee per dog per night). We have almost never rejected a dog but a few questions help ensure that our place stays clean and smelling fresh. If you'd like to bring a dog, please tell us:
(1) if they are 100% and reliably house trained
(2) the dog's age
(3) your dog's size/weight
We would really appreciate it if you could bathe your dog before visiting.
We do not allow puppies.
** Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the property, including the back deck. **
** No parties are allowed. **

About the host
Hosted by Nadia

I grew up on a farm in the UK as part of a big family and was taught from an early age how important it is to take care of visiting guests. I started hosting my apartment in Washington, DC in 2012 when I started traveling for work and I haven't looked back since.
Why they chose this property
I came to Colonial Beach for a triathlon with friends, and my wife and I looked at this home 'just for fun' and saw its potential. We loved staying here while setting it up. The beach is very peaceful in the mornings - we would pick up coffee and pastries and walk our dog and baby to the boardwalk every morning!
What makes this property unique
(1) Retro-themed decor - this isn't your typical beach house
(2) We've tried to provide everything you could possibly need from beach gear to games to a fully equipped kitchen
(3) The ginormous back yard!
