About this property

Cherry Blossom Comfy Townhouse, Easy DC Access

Cozy & impeccably decorated Townhouse completely remodeled & renovated. Stay in luxury & enjoy the quiet back yard. Located in the Brookland/Petworth neighborhood. Walk to shops, historic landmarks, and easy access to N Capitol St. w/ all of your favorite spots less than 15 minutes to the Mall & Capitol Hill. Includes off street parking & a mini basketball net for fun friendly, competitive down time .:) Near Fort Totten Park, Catholic University & Fort Totten Metro Station. This is a 3 bedroom that acts like a 4 bedroom. With the addition of a great queen Murphy bed addition to the basement, this hangout room with full bathroom and wet bar converts to a bedroom with ease and speed. You can expect to have a comfy bed, nice sheets, lots of full bathrooms, and your own towels and toiletries. New hardwoods align all floors, and the contemporary finish matches the decor in a way that makes the space uniquely inviting. You can enjoy the full space with your friends and family! Welcome!, I'm available throughout your entire stay, and if there is need for something on site, our management team will take care of it. Thanks, Craig. Neighborhood is very walkable to the Petworth restaurant scene. Ft. Totten Metro station is 0.8 mile and bus line access at the corner heading down North Capitol Street. Quiet neighbors and folks will be very welcoming walking around the neighborhood to Ft. Totten Park at the end of the road. There are two off street parking spaces on a new concrete pad. There is also plenty of free street parking if additional guest vehicles need a spot. The metro bus line stop is at the end of the block, which will take you down N. Capitol St., and the Ft Totten Metro is less than a mile walk to access Baltimore, or down to Union Station. If the Capitol is what you seek, it is a 12 minute Uber ride to the Capitol and The Mall, and easy access to Petworth and Columbia Heights. New Weber gas grill for any of your outdoor cooking needs.

Great home/Convenient

We were in town to visit our college kid - great location within 8-10 min from Howard, and within about 20 from many of the museums/monuments/touristy things. The home is pretty accurately represented in photos. Parking is very tight, but doable, even with a minivan (and bike rack on back). The entry app/system was a bit frustrating - I would much prefer a key pad and code. You have to be near to unlock the door with the app, and mid-stay we had an overlap in arrival between myself and my husband, so needed him to get the app and approval from owner so that he could get in the house - it was just a bit of a hassle and delayed response (they were busy, I get it) for husband to be able to enter house. House was clean for the most part - some kitchen items needed washed before using, and dust bunnies under some beds, but overall not an issue. Only real concerns were the uncovered windows on the rear of the lowest level (below grade, so people could see in easily), and a bit of a moth issue - maybe doors were left open during cleaning? It may be more of a DC/spring issue than house issue. Overall, we were happy with the home, the location, and would consider renting again while visiting.

modern and cute

This modern and well-kept townhouse makes great use of space and has plenty of space for the family. However, there's some molding in the bathroom on the basement floor, so a deep cleaning could be needed. The location is a bit out of the way, and you will need to drive everywhere.

perfect house!

This house was an absolute perfect place to stay while in DC. It was about a 20 min drive from center of DC where all the museums are or a 5 min drive from the Fort Totten metro station. Inside was perfectly sized for our family of 6 (2 kids took the bunk beds, 2 kids shared the queen). The house was clean, very nicely decorated and very inviting. We were able to use the grill one of the nights for dinner. The kitchen and whole house is equipped with everything you will need. There are even shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the showers. And they left sealed toothbrushes in case you forgot yours in the bathrooms. You can tell that they really care about the people staying here. Craig was amazing with communication as well and responded right away via cell. There were no dishwasher pods for our stay and he had the cleaner uber it to the house within a few hours. As previous reviewers have said, the parking spot is difficult to get into and we struggled with our minivan but made it work. However, do not let that deter you because the property itself is perfect. I would not hesitate to book again if we go to DC in the future.

Amazing Getaway Spot

This townhouse was absolutely stunning! Beautifully decorated with everything you need for a great stay. It has all the supplies that we needed for a 5-night stay so we did not need to purchase anything outside of food. It is about a 15 minute walk to the Fort Totten metro stop which is super convenient and there is a metro bus stop less than a block from the home. I would absolutely stay here again. The homeowner was easy to reach and super nice as well.

Excellent stay

The house was perfect for our needs! It was very well stocked. The only thing we had trouble with was the parking spot. We had a large vehicle for the 7 of us, and it was very difficult to get in and out of the parking space. However, it worked and it was one of our favorite spots of our trip!

DC gem

I grew up 20 minutes away in MD and had mini family trip. We had an absolutely delightful stay at this Craig’s vacation rental! From the moment we arrived, the property was impeccably clean, tastefully decorated, and well-maintained. The living areas and comfortable bedrooms provided ample room for our family to relax and unwind with plenty of natural light. The kids had the basement to themselves. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to prepare all meals. We even enjoyed the small patio for a glass of wine. There are some great restaurants nearby Timber Pizza, Menya Ramen and Little Food studio (10 mins drive) The house is located in a residential neighborhood on a busy street next to a fire station. Parking is in the back of the property. You hear traffic and an occasional fire truck, but it’s not bothersome. You definitely need a car or Uber drive to the METRO. Overall, this vacation rental exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic DC getaway.

Perfect for families

Great accommodations, excellent location, and comfortable space for a family of 6. We enjoyed our stay and would book this location again for our next visit to DC. Easy to access the sights of DC, good restaurants within reasonable walking distance in the area, as well as access to stores for grocery & other needs. Easy to communicate with our host. Overall a great experience.

Perfect little home away from home

This property is perfect for a family visiting DC. All of the bedrooms were comfortable and there was plenty of room for a family to find space away from each other when needed. Having two teenagers requires space and as a family of four this townhouse was perfect as everyone had their own bedroom and space. Very close to the Metro station which was important to us, as we went into the city everyday but then was able to get away back to the house and away from the hustle and bustle. Off street parking was a major plus! Highly recommend this property!

Well stocked, comfortable house for a family of 6, all ages. Great spot for DC sight seeing!

Have overall 5 rating because despite some issues we had that were out of the owner’s control and dealt with quickly through easy communication, this property was perfect for our stay in DC. It’s close to downtown - you could easily take public, but we chose to use spot hero to park downtown because it was less expensive than 6 taking the metro. The house is well stocked with kitchen items, extra blankets and pillows, and plenty of room. We did not receive a checkin email, but I contacted the property owner and was given instructions immediately. Great visit to DC!

Good property to stay and visit DC

Craig was super responsive right from the beginning. He offered a lot of information and provided additional feedback on things to do and places to visit in the general area. Every time I needed anything Craig responded quickly and was extremely helpful. The VRBO was very nice and clean. I was there with family attending an event at U of Maryland. I would stay here again if visiting DC.

Great property with a lot of extras

The townhouse was really well done- and the host had everything we needed, including extra toothpaste and toothbrushes in case you forgot! The ONLY thing is that the parking is very limited. There is really only comfortable parking for one vehicle- two if your cars are really compact. The townhouse is decorated beautifully and the kitchen is well equipped- loved the stove!! Thank you for a great place to stay.
