About this property

Spacious NW Family Retreat in Tranquil Neighborhood

Our home is one of the largest homes in the neighborhood. It is beautifully decorated for your enjoyment. Our large family room will make you feel like you are at home. House is 2,700 sq ft. The house is a close 2.5 miles from the well-known National Zoo. Also, a quick 10 minute walk to the METRO station that has a direct route to the National Mall - a perfect tourist destination.

This is a 4 bedroom (King, Queen, Queen, twin), 3.5 bath and a den “5 bedroom” it has a locking door - Queen bed - just not a window in a quiet, safe, family friendly neighborhood.
Basement : 2 queen beds and a full bathroom. Basement is connected to the house. Futon.
Second floor: King, Queen, twin.
Living room : sofa bed


The house includes three flat screen TVs (60", 47" and 32") and has Verizon Fios TV and 75/75 (extremely fast!) wireless internet. One King sized bed, 3 queens sized bed, and one twin sized bed. Additional we have a sofa bed in the living room and a futon. The space would be most comfortable for groups up to 10, but if you are willing too, the space can accommodate up to 13 people, with 3 people staying on the sofa bed and futon.
There are 4 - completely empty closets - in each of the front bedrooms for all your things; the fridge is sparkling and empty and kitchen has everything you need for cooking- plenty of dishes, silverware, cooking pans, bowls etc.
We have a pack and play for infants -additional mattress for the pack and play so baby can sleep comfortable and crib sheet. We also have one booster seat.

We provide a coffee maker, toaster and microwave. Washer and dryer included in laundry closet off of the master bedroom. Our home also has a 160 square foot deck on the rear of the home, with a grill and chairs. Perfect for unwinding and relaxing after a long day touring the city!

We will also provide a private parking spot which is in the backyard (not covered) and locked with a wooden gate. Extra parking spots are available around the house. Our area doesn't require a permit zone parking.

I am located 0.70 miles from the Georgia Ave-Petworth Metro Station (Yellow/Green Line) about a 10-15 min walk, metro bus is a block away. We are also walking distance to the grocery stores: YES Organic! and Safeway.

There are some terrific food options near my home, and I I will be sharing all those options prior to your arrival.

If you are planning to have parties/gatherings at this house - this is not the house for you. Only paying guests are allow to stay at the house.

Perfect for our needs
Loved our stay at this property. The home was very clean and well maintained. The hostess was great to communicate with and went out of the way to help resolve minor issues that came up (ice maker not keeping up with 6 soda addicts). Good proximity to public transport - if the 0.7 mi walk to the Metro station is a little too far, we found it's pretty easy to catch a bus.

Amazing property and wonderful host
Our large family group stayed here for 4th of July week and it was one of the best VRBO properties we have ever stayed at and after 15 years of booking homes that is saying a lot. The house was super clean and the location is great. Even the neighbors were lovely. I can not say enough nice things about this property and the communication with the host was great. Check in was seamless. I highly recommend this host and property!

DC Stay
Our family of 9 enjoyed our stay. Plenty of room to spread out and very clean! Walk to the metro was .7 mile. A little challenging of a walk, but once you figure out the bus system it takes you right to the metro. We felt relatively safe walking to and from the metro in our group. Place to park in back is very convenient for those with a car. Hosts responded to our questions very quickly and were super helpful. Super nice place to stay!
