Great place to stay
This is my second time staying here and I am sure I will be back. I like the spaciousness, quiet, and peaceful surroundings. It is easy to get where I need to be and communication with the owner is a breeze. The place was warm during my winter stay even though the furnace can be a bit loud at times it didn't interrupt my sleep.
Bonus is having laundry there and the necessary amenities for a weeks stay.

Charming house with everything you need
The property was absolutely charming, immaculately kept, nicely decorated and very spacious. All appliances appeared to be new/newer. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely rent here again. David was very kind and prompt to respond. Highly recommend if in the area.

Quick trip to Alexandria
We stayed two nights for a wedding near Alexandria. This house was very clean. Communication with the host was good. I like that each bed has its own Roku TV. The we forgot my daughter necklace and the host was willing to mail it to us. Overall, good stay.

Best VRBO we have stayed at!
The property is so very well maintained and streamlined. The beds are super comfortable and so much space for each person to sleep with privacy and a TV for each sleeping area. The location was fanastic, within walking distance to parks, shops and coffee! David was a very responsive host providing directions to assure we found it easily. Highly recommend this VRBO.
