This is a spacious, beautiful house that was perfect for our 9-person extended-family group. Big rooms gave us several options for gathering as a group, the bedrooms were comfortable, and there were plenty of bathrooms for a group our size. There’s an apartment in the basement that gave the two of us who stayed down there lots of privacy and quiet when we wanted. Everything was very clean and the kitchen is well supplied for cooking.A mini-pool/table tennis/foosball table kept our younger members happy, and the large-screen TV was great for our movie night and was all set up for us to use our own streaming services. We were there in the winter so didn’t take advantage of all the great space outside, but the zip line and climbing tree will be great if we come back when the weather is warm. Our host was very responsive and helpful. The neighborhood is super-quiet and safe. Great great place to stay.

This property is, without question, one of the finest vacation rentals I have ever experienced. I was searching for a family-friendly space suitable for hosting a dinner, and this home exceeded all expectations. The photos do not fully capture its beauty. Ms. Mohammed was an exceptional host—responsive, professional, and clearly dedicated to maintaining a high standard of hospitality.Backyard: The outdoor area is stunning—featuring a firepit, grill, swing set, zipline, and multiple seating areas that balance both comfort and privacy.Main Floor: The grand foyer creates an inviting first impression. The living and dining spaces are elegantly furnished, and the kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped, including a double oven and generous refrigerator space. The additional family room with a multi-game table was an excellent touch for guests of all ages.Lower Level: Like a private suite! Includes a TV, kitchenette, full bath, bedroom, laundry, and even a Keurig—perfect for my in-laws.Upper Level: The bedrooms are spacious and well-appointed, and the primary suite, with its work area, walk-in closet, and spa-like bathroom, is truly impressive.The property combines the refinement of a five-star hotel with the warmth of a family home. Its proximity to local amenities, major highways, and DC metro access is highly convenient. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this home to anyone! Cheers!
