We did our annual girls trip year this year (ages 40 plus) and it was perfect. The house was perfect for the 5 of us. Well stocked, perfect views and location. The host was amazing. This will be on our return list for sure.

President's Day getaway
My husband, son and his family (6 and 1 yr old) and I wanted a weekend getaway to visit our son who is in school at Dahlgren Naval base. We needed a place big enough to accommodate all of us. This was definitely the place. It was clean and comfortable. There were extra supplies if needed and everything you would need to prepare a meal. There were pantry items, drip and cup coffee makers, snacks and even a filtered water pitcher. Numerous inside and outdoor games, baby gates, pack-n-play, high chair and supplies if you brought your dog. I usually get up early, so I was able to watch the sunrise over the Potomac. A wonderful way to start the day. It's a big old house with lots of character with a nice mix of antique furniture. If my son were to be stationed in Dahlgren any longer, we would have been back. We all loved our weekend accommodations.

About the host

Hosted by Jo Ann kennel

Host profile image
Our family has owned this home for decades - we spent every summer bringing our children here when they were younger and look forward to other families having similar experiences!

Why they chose this property

The view! This home is directly across from river - wake up to wonderful sunrises as you enjoy coffee on the porch and relax at sunset.

What makes this property unique

Potomac View is the name given by our family’s matriarch, Grandma Dot, to her home, a spot where we relished spending our own youthful summers, enjoying a slower pace of life and are now thrilled to open up this space for others to appreciate. Although Grandma Dot and Grandaddy Bob don’t come down as often as they would like to this home anymore, they became a front porch fixture in this town. When you sit on the porch, remember to always give a wave to passersby, a tradition our grandparents started and we continue whenever we stay here. Local legend rumored this house to be a brothel at the turn of the century, complete with sinks in three of the four bedrooms and a secret hiding place on the left side of the dining room fireplace mantel.
