Amazing House

This house was amazing from the moment we walked in the door. We were there for a weekend girls’ shopping trip. We really enjoyed staying in in the evenings because the house was so perfect. Coming from someone who stays in rental houses multiple times a year, I can say this was the cleanest, most beautiful house I’ve ever stayed in. We’re thinking of coming back to this area again just so we can stay in this house again!

Perfect for families

Our family of ten stayed at this fabulous home while in town for a wedding. This home was exactly as described and is open and well laid out. We were even able to bake for the wedding in the fully stocked kitchen. Erin was a terrific host who went out of her way to check in frequently to ensure our stay was everything we expected! The kids room was an extra amenity we didn’t know we wanted but was a great addition to our vacation.

Great home. No regrets

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! It was exceptionally clean, spacious, and located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood—perfect for relaxing after busy days of sightseeing. The location was ideal, offering easy access to all the major sights in Washington, DC, and just minutes away from charming Old Town Alexandria. We enjoyed some fantastic meals there and loved simply walking around and taking in the historic atmosphere.Erin, the host, was incredibly helpful and accommodating. She provided great local tips and made the check-in process seamless. This home truly felt like a retreat for our family, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Absolutely PERFECT!!!!! That’s the best way to sum up everything about the Crestwood House. Our family stayed here in mid October as we honored my Dad at Arlington National Cemetery. We had family members ranging from 86 to 2yrs old and everyone was beyond comfortable! We were amazed by all of the thoughtful details- the playroom, outdoor space for adults and the children, bathroom amenities, comfortable bedrooms, workspaces, kitchen amenities (the little things like stocking items for the coffee lovers). This location could not have been better. We were close to the places we needed and wanted to be. The ONLY bad thing was our trip had to end. We all wanted to live here forever. Erin is an amazing host! We couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Family Memories!!!

This beautiful home was the perfect place for our family which included kids and grandparents to make some beautiful core memories over this long weekend before Christmas! It is about a 15 minute drive from National Harbor in Maryland and if you go the other way, about 15 minutes to the Washington monument so it is in an excellent Spot for sightseeing!! my children loved it so much they didn’t want to leave! Thank you so much for helping to be part of one of our core memories!

Absolutely beautiful home with no detail left out! Everything we needed was already thought of, all we had to bring was ourselves, our food, and clothes! So clean and comfortable and easy access to D.C. for exploring our nation’s capital. Our family loved the home and outdoor space! Would absolutely book again. Erin responded quickly to every question I had and checked in on us throughout the stay. Keypad entry made it easy to check in and no over the top checkout process either! Amazing experience!

A wonderful vacation home experience in Alexandria!Our group consisted of 4 siblings and their spouses in the 55 age range. Definitely a discriminating bunch when it comes to knowing what they like and dislike. I gave them ample opportunities throughout the stay to let me know what needed improvement, negatives, etc., (and believe me these folks have opinions about everything). Nobody would offer our hostess and this property less than 5 stars. The home is designed for comfort, low maintenance, and a sense of family.My wife has already made a list of things she wants us to duplicate at our house….If we ever come back to Alexandria I already know where I want to stay.

Family DC Trip

The Crestwood house was perfect for our family vacation! The home is well maintained and equipped with everything you may need. We had a group of six, and there was plenty of room with multiple gathering spaces including an area for the little ones. The location is great and we were able to get to most of the DC attractions and the airport within 15 minutes. The neighborhood is very nice and close to many restaurants and shops. The host is extremely responsive and the check-in was a breeze. I would definitely recommend this home!

Just like home

Erin’s property in Alexandria was absolutely perfect. We were meeting with family to celebrate our delayed Christmas. This home had all the conveniences of home! We cooked, played, entertained etc. There was tons of space for everyone to spread out. The master bed was very comfortable and spacious. Neighborhood was safe. Location was great. Close to food stores and restaurants. Very easy to drive into the DC attractions. Looking forward to returning in the future.

Booked a few days here with our staff team of 4. It was absolutely perfect! Loved the open layout of the house, the large kitchen, and outside patio. Plenty of space and separate living areas to spread out. The decor was out of a magazine…and the master suit gorgeous— the entire home is beautiful and tasteful. Host was welcoming and friendly and the communication was great. I would highly recommend this host/home. Great neighborhood just minutes from Old Town. Erin… thank you. We will be back for sure!!
