Vacation rentals with a patio in Chesapeake and Ohio Canal

This is a great place to stay and tour the DC Metro area - provided you have a car. Most days it would take us 30 minutes to get to and from DC though if we hit rush-hour, it was as long as an hour. The space is tidy and great. My kids love the pool, though it was a little cold for me-they swam there every night. Jennifer is great to communicate if you have any needs she gets stuff done right away. Note that there is only one bathroom, which can be a pain if you have a full house of six people. The washer and dryer are small so it will take you longer if you’re used to a full size. She had all the cooking methods and appliances available. The theater room has Netflix and Amazon prime ready for you to watch a show. There is even a popcorn maker. We did not use the gym, but it was nice - comparable to a small hotel gym. Property is in the owner’s basement, so there is some sound from upstairs as identified in the listing. Host stays out of your way but is there if you need anything.

I had a great stay here! I really loved that I was able to find a place that allowed me to travel with my dog! Great location, very close to everything in DC and great places in Arlington. 10/10 recommend!

Stayed at Erin’s place for a night and wish it was longer! The room is steps away from the restaurant I met with my friends at. It is situated near all that Del Ray and the rest of Alexandria has to offer. In addition, the bed was quite comfortable and the suite itself is quite luxurious.

We loved our stay, clean place, no clutter and so much was within walking distance. All eateries recommended by Host were tried and enjoyed. We always felt safe walking around. Taxis & Ubers always available. By the way DC yellow cab was always cheaper. The only negative that might be a problem for someone is it is noisy in the early morning, wasn’t a problem for us for we always got an early start. Also as a warning, if you have a mobility issue with stairs, I would not recommend, but if not I would recommend every time. I would definitely rent again.

Jillian's place was perfect for my husband and I on a short visit to DC. We loved the location so close to Rock Creek Park on a tree lined quiet street. We did have a car, but carless transport would require a bit of a walk to transit to get to downtown DC. The place is a typical DC daylight basement apartment, so a long stay working from home might not be feel a little claustrophobic. Jillian and her family were very quiet overhead which we appreciated. For a night or two this place is great -comfortable bed, excellent shower, comfortable sitting area and kitchen with enough for our stay. We would stay there again if we are back in DC.

Fantastic place to stay! Beautiful neighborhood and close to great shops and restaurants/cafes. Marvin was a very responsive host and very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this place to stay!

We had a great stay. The amenities gave us all the comforts of being in a home at the end of a long road trip to DC. We could spread out, rest and recover each day after seeing the sights of the district. The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly like the listing described. The metro station was only a couple of blocks away, and there were lots of options for food. Arsham was a great host, and we plan to stay here again.

Clean and comfortable place. We appreciated Fish’s responsiveness in communication. We would definitely stay here again!

Gladys has a lovely home. We enjoyed spending time in the heated pool and loved hearing about Gladys’s stories. The stay was perfect and had everything we needed. Make sure to try the sauna after a swim in the pool! Thank you very much for hosting us and hope to be back soon!

Perfect room for a night in DC. Would always come back!

This house is a great find - it has everything you need to feel right at home and the house and yard are beautiful. The house is extremely well appointed and well stocked. The common area furniture and beds are very comfortable. The gas fireplace was perfect for cool spring nights. The back yard porch was a great place to hang out with comfy furniture, 2 grills, sun umbrellas and a gas fire pit. I love to cook and the kitchen had everything I needed and more. Diana is one of THE BEST Airbnb or Vrbo hosts that we have ever had. She was very responsive, knowledgable, friendly and detail oriented. My wife left her glasses and she mailed them to us overnight. The location is excellent - the neighborhood is peaceful, but very close to the town center stores and activities. Falls Church has a small town feel but is close to all of the attractions of the Wash DC metro area. The house comfortably accommodated me, my wife, our son and grandparents; one-level living was great for grandparents.

Eric was a fantastic host—responsive, welcoming, and thoughtful throughout our stay. The place was exactly as described: clean, comfortable, and in a great location. We really appreciated the little touches that made us feel at home. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Loved this place so much!! It was so clean, new towels/sheets, beautiful new bathrooms, gorgeous spacious kitchen, great location close to metros and stores, etc. Hosts were amazing as well. Let us check in early, answered all my questions, provided everything we would need like a hotel. We had the best time. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent first Airbnb experience! Space was exactly as described and impeccably clean. Located in a beautiful, secure, quiet neighborhood directly across from a park... so pleasant hearing kids playing while heading out to our car instead of typical hotel noise. Daisy and Steven were fantastic hosts, responsive, friendly, and thoughtfully checked on our comfort without being intrusive. Great amenities including off-street parking, EV charger, coffee bar, snacks, and welcome wine. Clear instructions made everything seamless. Would definitely book again - highly recommend!

Wonderful place ! Beautiful and very clean! Host was easy to communicate with

What a wonderful oasis. So easy to find and yet such a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. We could easily get to Alexandria, to Dulles, to The Mall, and also to local parks like Green Springs Garden. It's also very close to several restaurants, grocery stores, etc. On a warm summer evening, sitting out on the back patio for our dinner was just delightful. We even saw a fox crossing the road one evening! Whenever we had a question about anything, Jon responded within minutes. All in all, this was the perfect house in the ideal location.

This was a wonderful stay. I loved how they communicated. Very informative. I was in town for multiple events and the furthest i traveled was 12 min. The location is amazing. Compact amenities. Definitely recommend

This is a rare find and a real treat. I was visiting DC from the UK and had originally planned to stay in a hotel in downtown but as I live in a quiet English village I was worried about lack of sleep from the big city buzz. I searched for an Airbnb (as I always favour these v hotels) which highlighted safety and peace - and Celia's lovely apartment came up. This is such a fabulous place to stay in DC: very quiet and safe area, no night time noise, within 5 minutes of the metro station for a quick same-line journey to the centre, and very clean and comfortable. I loved every minute. The icing on the cake is it's such a great value. Thank you so much, Celia.

Large place, great jumping off point and close to town for my partner, my dog and myself. Very clean, and set up great to watch TV at night or work from home. And a fully operational kitchen so you don't have to eat out every night. Thank you again!

Molly was a great host. The Airbnb looks exactly like the photos. The place was clean and had everything we needed. It was quiet and we couldn’t hear any neighbors. Molly gave very detailed instructions which made checking in super simple. The beds were a little bit hard but other than that, this was a perfect place to stay.

Katie’s place was super convenient to walk to all the restaurants, bars, and shops. Super clean and tastefully decorated.

No ghosts were seen or felt despite being a civil war hospital. Super cute place! Whoever decorated it did a lovely job… those vertical stripes on the walls and all white paint make the basement apartment feel large and airy despite having only a few small windows. Host was very nice and responsive with questions.

Ben’s place is exactly as described me and my family enjoyed our stay. I felt right at home, when I’m visiting my sister in the near future I will definitely stay again.

Great apartment! Sean’s apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is completely quiet at night and the bed is good. There is a good vibe in the neighbourhood and the apartment is less than five minutes from a Green Line metro station that will take you directly to the best art museums in the city. Sean and his co-hosts are very helpful and responsive. I hope to come back to Washington one day and if that happens, I will definitely try to book Sean’s apartment again. Thank you Sean, Megan and Loren for all your helpfulness and a lovely stay!
