Outside your door, you will glimpse the famous Alexandria waterfront one block away, where you can catch an easy ferry access to Washington DC or across to National Harbour. Those who prefer can take a short Metro ride and arrive in our nation’s capital. The famous Virginia home of George and Martha Washington, Mount Vernon, is a half hour by taxi or car and an easy bike ride down the famous George Washington Parkway bike bath. Enjoy countless things to do here in the heart of Old Town.

We are also bike-friendly and have a bike trail steps from Cameron House to the National Mall, and even to Mount Vernon – the estate where George Washington lived.

Family Event

My parents, mother-in-law, and spouse traveled to DC for a larger family event. We wanted to stay close to Old Town and have bed/bathrooms for all…not an easy find. This house checked all the boxes. It was clean, and the mattresses were comfortable. They have a wine cellar and offered a complimentary bottle but we didn’t partake. So cool though. We’d definitely stay again. Highly recommend this historic home.
