Felt Like Home

I cannot say enough about Shirley's property. Every element of the property and amenities were so incredibly thoughtful and well planned. We've been to many rental properties over the years and you'll often find minor frustration points, where it's clear the host has not considered what it would truly be like to live there for a few days. I can honestly say that Shirley's property felt like home. From the info binder to the fully stocked kitchen (and snacks!)... From additional soft blankets to the beautiful decor, it was clear Shirley put thought and heart into the space. Additional thoughts: Easy commute into the city to see museums and monuments. Nearby grocery store. Lovely neighborhood with sidewalks. Several playgrounds nearby (within a few minute drive). The hammock was a huge hit with my kids. They loved eating breakfast on the deck and then relaxing on the hammock until it was time to leave. Would definitely book Shirley's property again next time we visit DC.

Best stay ever

The property was absolutely amazing! Information regarding the home and the area was very well organized, helpful and complete.The owner has top of the line everything and our every need was at our disposal and more. The outside space is neat, comfortable and enough room and amenities to entertain any group. I would not stay anywhere else if I am in the Washington DC area and I will definitely tell my friends that this is a must stay locale!.

This house has lots of space and was great for our visit which combined DC sightseeing and working remotely. We appreciated the many extras like welcome snacks and laundry supplies. The proximity to trails in Rock Creek Park was a good bonus.

3rd great stay in a row

This unit is convenient to Bethesda and Rockville. The host is very kind and left us snacks (helpful for night arrival when things are mostly closed). Check-in and checkout are always easy. We plan to return again next year.

Home away from home

This is our second time staying at this property when visiting our daughter who lives in DC and we stayed even longer this time--11 days. It was just as wonderful as we remember it being last year and we'll try to stay here every time we come back. Shirley has made this rental feel like a home away from home. Thank you, Shirley.

The property and amenities were designed with the guest in mind. Neighborhood was quiet with multiple walking trails, gym was close by (10-15 minutes walk). Host was very receptive throughout the process. We had everything we needed as a family. Simple fabulous!!

The pinnacle of places

Shirley's residence was the best place we have ever stayed and we have been to a lot in just past year. Everything was great including the snacks she left us. Spacious enough for 6 of us to move about without bumping into one another. The list of superlatives is long so let me just say if considering a visit to D.C., book with Shirley. As we were packing and ready to depart, we got a chance to meet her and that was just another added bonus.

Living like a local

We come to the DC area frequently to visit our daughter and have always stayed in hotels in busy parts of Washington. The hotels were very nice, but we always returned home exhausted after overdoing the tourist attractions and being in the middle of the hustle and bustle and city noise. Shirley’s place is a nice mix of convenience to tourist attractions by car or nearby Metro or if you just want to live like a local as we did. The space itself is one of the most comfortable and well equipped properties we have ever rented. We especially enjoyed beginning each morning out on the deck in our pj’s drinking coffee while being serenaded by birds. There is a grocery, CVS, Starbucks, etc. just a short drive away with a large parking lot. We stumbled upon the access to Rock Creek Park while walking through the quiet neighborhood. No need to drive and hunt for a parking spot if you want to hit the trails. We will definitely want to return here on future visits.

Great place

The place was beautiful and well appointed with what we needed. Owners were very nice and the snacks and water was a nice touch. The only and it’s small was that the sleeping areas were in my opinion slightly Mia leading. It says there is a futon on the landing before the second bedroom is really just a couch. And the listing stars in the great room has a double and a single bed it’s solely a sectional couch our young boys were comfortable out there but it was not as completely accurately described in my opinion. All and all it was a wonderful home and very comfortable just maybe not for a family of 5.

Very clean. Good location. DC traffic very congested allow time for travel. La Ferme is a great local restaurant that is only a couple miles away. Wegman’s is a good place to buy any groceries located on Wisconsin Avenue. Definitely would recommend.

This is the best short term rental we have ever stayed in! Large, well located, beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean space filled with incredibly thoughtful amenities. Fully equipped kitchen stocked with snacks, coffee and extra household supplies (garbage bags, paper towels). The bathroom had toiletries, plenty of towels and laundry was easily accessible. The owner Shirley provided clear check in instructions, along with directions on everything from operating appliances to local restaurants and attractions. Thank you Shirley, your space is truly a cut above!

well-equipped and comfortable place

This was a great place to stay during our recent trip to visit family nearby. It was nicely decorated and comfortable and it was very well-equipped for a rental. It had pretty good kitchen equipment and even a fair bit of food when we arrived (which was very helpful with our 11pm arrival; almost everything nearby was closed). Shirley was warm, helpful, and easy to reach. We didn't need to contact her for much in the first place though as the binder of info in the unit had basically everything we needed to know. We will definitely be back.
