Need help planning your stay? Just ask! We are more than happy to help, & provide an in-depth property guide stock full of helpful hints about the neighborhood, with our tips for making the most of your stay in DC!
Guest Access:
The unit is not shared. Guests will have access to the entire home.
The Neighborhood:
The Petworth neighborhood is newly trending and becoming popular with families and the younger DC crowd as it`s residential, but has great access to downtown. There is a true sense of community, and everyone looks out for each-other; porch culture reigns supreme, families pushing prams, and neighbors greeting each-other with smiles are common sightings!
You will find lots of great little eateries and coffee shops nestled among the tree lined streets. Lincoln`s Cottage (off of Rock Creek Church Road), where President Lincoln used to vacation when he wanted to get away from the city is a short stroll from the home. The nearby Rock Creek Cemetery dates back to 1712; both the Cemetery and the Armed Forces Retirement Home are on the National Register of Historic Places. We have a property guide full of our favorite local recommendations.
Getting Around:
With a walk score of 94%, Buses flank the surrounding areas, and can take you all over the city, but exploring on foot is an easy option as well!
We are within 7 minutes on foot from the Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro Station (which follows the green and yellow lines).
You can be at the Judiciary Square Metro Station (under 30 minutes total transit time), which is nestled among the major sights, including the U.S. Capitol Building, the Smithsonian Museums, and the National Mall.
Uber and Lyft taxi`s are plentiful in the area as well.
Other Things to Note:
We want you to make the most of your stay, so we've partnered with DC’s city tour company See DC Today to help ensure an amazing visit, at the best rate possible! Sit back and relax as the finest, most highly-trained and knowledgeable guides take you through the city, to soak up the surrounding history.
Feel free to give us a call to find out about the discounted rates we have secured for Home Sweet City's guests.
