This home was absolutely perfect for our stay with extended family. We were close to the metro and within walking distance to the store and restaurants! Our host, Lester, even shipped a forgotten item back to my parents...what great service! We would absolutely stay here again! Thanks for an amazing stay! It was perfect for what we needed.

Only complaint was with the shower in the 1st floor bathroom (could not get upper head to work) and a small table in the bathroom would have been nice for personal effects for 2 people. Beds were very comfortable.

We rented this house for an extended family trip to DC for graduation. It was very clean, very comfortable, and had everything we needed to accommodate 8 adults and 2 teenagers! The neighborhood was great with restaurants, coffee, and grocery within blocks. It is a total gem and the hosts were very responsive. We highly recommend this rental.

We are new at VRBO and this was the greatest option for visiting family in the Kensington area. We loved staying at this charming house. It was wonderful for the 5 of us. It was so close to our relative’s house we could even walk there. The town is absolutely charming. The communication with the hosts was perfect. Thank you!! Absolutely recommend.

Great location

House is located in a nice residential area. The pictures look smaller than the house actually is. 4 adults and 2 children had more than enough room. Well appointed kitchen. Linens and towels were nice quality. Visiting relatives in Silver Spring and will hopefully stay again!

Great house

The house was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would add is dressers for the bedrooms that don’t have them and a space to hang up a coat and /or dress in the main floor bedroom. We enjoyed being there and being able to walk to the grocery store and restaurants.
