We were very pleased with the location and setting for our visit.We really enjoyed walking to the local park and sitting on the porch overlooking the river with a nice breeze blowing through the trees.A very comfortable setting with nice shops and restaurants near by.Thank you for your hospitality
Cozy place, convenient to all the cute little shops and restaurants. Nice little porch with good view of the river. Hubby and I found an excellent respite, refreshing stay.
Great quiet location along the river. Host was very responsive when we had a question. Really nice stay, jumped on the VRE to visit DC. It was nice to be away from all of the traffic and noise. There were also many nice eateries (Thai, Greek, Italian and really good pizza) within a short walking distance of the property.
What a delightful and charming place to stay in a picturesque location. Since we have family nearby, we will likely book again when we are in the area.
We’ve stayed at a few different rental places in Occoquan and this was by far the nicest with an incredible view! Reasonably priced, walking to everything, and a clean, comfortable place to stay. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.
fantastic location over river and neighborhood - park and pedestrian bridge couple blocks away loads of light - balcony - perfect price great value for DC area will stay again
Our stay was truly delightful. The accommodations were charming and spacious, offering every amenity we could possibly need for a comfortable visit. The views from our room were absolutely breathtaking, allowing us to appreciate the surrounding scenery in all its glory. Additionally, the location was perfect—conveniently situated near local attractions and dining options, making our exploration easy and enjoyable. We had such a wonderful experience that we are already looking forward to our next visit!
The apartment is excellent for 2 people. Many restaurants and bars within easy walking. Paddle boarding and kayaking on the river is great. If shopping is your thing, many unique shops to explore. Parks for hiking are within a few minutes drive. Been coming back for a few years now’s d will keep visiting!
This apartment was perfect for us while visiting family in Silver Spring, Arlington, & DC. We loved the quaint little town of Occoquan with the beautiful river, park, great shopping & restaurants. However, beware … most of the businesses are closed on Monday & the eateries close early. Our accommodations were exceptionally clean, offered a convienent check-in, & stood above a great little chocolate store! We will be back!!
This place served as a perfect home base for me as a solo visitor when I was in the area for an event. Christine made the check in process easy with the videos she provided. The dedicated parking spot under the building was convenient. I loved the back deck too!
Would recommend this property to anyone.
Just needed a kitchen sink to be perfect. The balcony overlooked the river. The rooms were decorated beautifully. Will definitely use them again!
The place was very clean which is important to me it was really nice inside. Sitting on the deck in the morning having our coffee with the view of the river so peaceful. Mill street has so many restaurants and shops and the historical buildings it was beautiful. We will definitely visit again thank you Christina for a wonderful place to stay . Also cannot forget the chocolate shop in the front the chocolate is amazing and the owner was very entertaining.
Even though there were no bells and whistles to this spot, it was perfect for occoquan. The location provides an awesome view to the river and it's centered right in the heart of town. Cobb was very responsive and super accommodating, ready to help with any questions we had. Would definitely stay there again or anywhere Cobb is hosting. Thank you!
We loved staying at Harry/Ann’s place! The view of the river is fantastic and the porch and outdoor area is lovely to hang out on. The rooms inside were clean and quaint, and loved how bright and sunny it got during the daytime. We would recommend bringing your own towels, the ones provided were too small for our taste. It’s definitely a shared building and there is some noise from upstairs. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs.
The apartment was perfect for 2 or 3. Beautiful scene of the river. The shower was fine. There is only one sink and that would be the bathroom. Water pressure was very low, and the sink "stopper" was not opening - the handle was broken. The host was notified. That was the only problem. The town was nice. Many places to eat. Madigan's was great-and on the waterfront.
Property was as listed. Only issue was water pressure in the bathroom sink. Water came out as a drizzle. Informed host and they thanked me for letting them know and said they’d get it fixed. It’s definitely a beautiful setting right in the Occoquan river. I’m originally from northern Virginia which is why I picked Occoquan as a place to stay. Very convenient to almost everything. Definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants a quaint place to stay. Occoquan is full of history and there’s plenty of history very close by.
Overall, I like my stay very much in this apartment & in Occoquan. If I could, I would give my stay 4.5/5 stars.-It was very clean with kind of a beach vibe to the decor.-There were 2 rooms (decent sized living room & bedroom).-There's a little table by a side window that gives you a great view of the river & bridge in the main pic for this listening. A GREAT view for when I was eating and/or on my laptop.-The mattress is a bit on the firm side.-Smallish shower only, no tub.-I could hear the people upstairs at times both evenings I was there.-The Occoquan Historic District is a wonderful little town with a bunch of little restaurants, stores, & a park along the river just North of town, all within easy walking distance.-Only thing close to a complaint I have (maybe this is because this was my 1st time using Vrbo) is...I saw stuff on Vrbo saying I should get check-in & check-out instructions 3 days before check-in. Evening of 2 days before check-in I sent a message to the host asking when I would get the instructions. After not getting a response, the evening before check-in I contacted VrboCare, who contacted the host, and found out I would get check-in & check-out instructions the day of check-in. Later that night the host messaged me saying this & as promised I got very detailed/good check-in & check-out instructions.-If there was something in the listing about getting check-in & check-out instructions the day of check-in, I would give this 5/5 stars easily!
