Just outside the city in a beautiful park-like neighborhood. Perfect for us and our dog, who enjoyed the yard and our walks to Rick Creek Park. We were close enough to downtown DC to enjoy all the sights and return to a quiet suburban residence and enjoy quiet peaceful nights.

We stayed here for my son’s graduation from American University.

Natasha’s place was in a quiet, safe neighborhood and the accommodations were clean and well-supplied with lots of conveniences to make it feel like home. The property is accurately described in the listing. A great value for accommodations in the District, especially since there is room to park your car. (Hotels charge $$$ for parking!!!)

We had access to the game room with large living room area and pool table as well as 2nd bathroom. We were in DC to spend Thanksgiving with our daughter who lives in Georgetown, so this property was quite close to where she lives and works. Natasha was very helpful with details about the property, answered my many questions, and did everything she could to make our stay very enjoyable.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jim A., Jasper, GA Jul 6, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Property needs work The host was very gracious letting us change dates. Very pleasant to deal with personally. BUT 1. Shared driveway /gravel parking description was erroneous. Really meant Parking on street. With a 75 feet walk up a hill driveway to get to more steps. 2. Climb continued up several steps up a sidewalk that was not lit at night. Better have a flashlight. 3. Was redirected through backyard. Backyard walk is 12 inch pavers pathway in very slippery mud. Up and down a hill. Again no lights at night. Path was overgrown with trees and ivy that kept slapping us in the face. 4. Entrance at bottom of steps with no rail. Wall covered in ivy so you can’t steady yourself in fear of animals in ivy (snakes?). 5. Musty/musky smell in apt. Although it appeared clean, no sign of bugs. But BR had some mildew. 6. Plumbing issue upon arrival. Asked us to place toilet paper in trash instead of toilet. I did not, flushed waste first, then toilet paper, worked fine. Said previous guest flushed paper towels. After 12 years of VRBO my first negative review. Process was great. Facility needs work. ##### Jim A.

We got to D.C. with our dog and were immediately welcomed to the home by Ms. Spivack. She showed us the layout of the living area, bedroom, and the shared TV/pool room that added bonus to our small private space. There is a fenced backyard that our dog shared with her Welsh terrier, who eventually made friends with our dog (our dog can be aloof with other dogs!). The living room sofa converts to a guest bed, which is good for people bringing additional guests. The kitchen was perfect for snacks and making cereal in the morning. We parked in front of the house on the street and had no problem with traffic. This house is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood not far from the DC Zoo and a large park nearby. We walked our dog around the neighborhood and found it to be peaceful and soothing. If you find you need doggie bags to pick up after your pup, there are bags in the fenced backyard of the house. Overall, this was a great place to stay on our trip to DC and we highly recommend it to others! ##### EJ H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa H.

The property is just what it advertises to be. The neighborhood is very nice. The proximity to Rock Creek Park was incredible. Our dogs also loved the fenced in backyard to play. It's a perfect little getaway for a couple. ##### Melissa H.

Mar 20, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay It was a great dog friendly place which accommodated for my older dog. Nice hiking trails close by and my kids enjoyed the pool table so much that they were totally happy playing pool rather than exploring the city further. ##### Stephanie N.
