This was the perfect place for exploring old town, walking the river path, and just hanging out for Christmas away from home with our DC-based son. Wonderful old house quirks yet modern bathrooms. Would absolutely stay again!

We wanted to celebrate some of the holiday in historic Alexandria and experience the Scottish weekend. This property went beyond what we expected. Most rentals are never better than you’ll see in the listing; this property was all it showed and better. Felt like home, walking distance to park, shopping, and restaurants. Bed was super comfy and the bathroom had SO MUCH SPACE. Cannot compliment this host enough.

Wonderful getaway in this immaculate time capsule. The owner was delightful, the check-in seamless, right down to the convenient parking permit. The neighborhood was charming, and our only regret is not having enough time to nose around. We look forward to our next stay!

Great location. Walking to all restaurants and shops. Never moved the car in 3 days! Cheryl was very easy to work with and gave good suggestions for local living and exploring! Steps to upstairs bedroom are steep. Rope handrail is helpful. Modern kitchen and exceptional master bathroom! Nice game table as well.

I can't say enough good things about this place! Not only is it an historic property on "Captain's Row" in Old Town Alexandria (carefully restored and updated with all the modern conveniences), but Cheryl has decorated and furnished it with extremely good taste and sensitivity for the period. It must have cost a fortune. Right outside the front door on Price Street appears to be the favorite spot for anyone shooting a video or taking photographs. It's the center of the universe in Old Town! Don't miss it! I can't recommend it enough!

Where do i start, the house will carry you back in time while staying there. The location is special due to the fact you are one or two blocks from the Potomac, docks, best dining and trolley. We fell in love with Alexandria. We will definitely be going back.
