Peaceful River Front Property
Nicely maintained home with all you need for a perfect stay. Nestled on a quiet street just minutes walk from historic downtown and riverfront walk. Large covered porches with the back porch having a river view and we enjoyed an occasional slow moving train going past. Management is very accommodating and fast to respond. Highly recommend.

Wonderful and Charming Property
The Sterling House was by far the best property to celebrate for my graduation. It was unforgettable and William was very kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. Best VRBO experience ever had.

Peaceful Riverside Cottage
Charmingly appointed home nestled in a lovely quiet neighborhood along the river. Included all the amenities needed for a restful stay. Great proximity to downtown to walk and enjoy a meal. Perfect location to use as a base camp for birding the surrounding area. Has lots of comfortable outdoor spaces to unwind with a glass of wine after a long day. Perfect backyard for our Labrador to enjoy some free time in the evenings.

Pictures on the listing do not do this place justice. Its a quiet neighborhood with very peaceful surroundings. Inside the house was very clean upon check in and the process was very simple. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk to and from downtown every day. William was very communicative and easy to work with. He even had a card and flowers for my wife as we were celebrating her birthday that weekend. Not to mention he got some ice cream sandwiches too! Would highly recommend this property to anybody who enjoys good views and a very dog friendly home!

First visit to Washington
We truly enjoyed our stay in Washington. The end and beginning of each day was very special because of our stay in Sterling House. So peaceful by the river. The house was so lovely. My husband and I have a love of historic homes.

Great stay!
This home was a clean, comfortable and perfect place to stay for our weekend getaway for a family wedding. It’s on the water and in a quiet neighborhood but yet it was very close to the uptown wedding rehearsal dinner @Hackneys and to the reception at the Mulberry House on Main Street. Would love to return at a later date to tour the town.
