Fabulous place with lots of history and yet very modern. Perfect for our family meeting place with things to do nearby and great restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.
This property was perfect for a reunion with my three friends. Perfect location within a few blocks of the river and a short walk to Kingâs Street. The historic townhouse is updated and beautifully decorated. Also the owner is very accessible if you have questions. My friends and I decided to return next year.
The house was absolutely gorgeous. We stayed in an old historic house but updated in every aspect to modern conveniences. We were in awe! Amyâs ability to take care of every need and detail was amazing. We had a few questions and she answered them quickly. Loved being in a cove where it was quiet and off the Main Street. The only issue is if you have a car there are no assigned parking spots for it. The city owns rights to the parking in there. On Friday and Saturday nights if you bring your car and have a good parking spot, I would not move until the next day.
The house is beautifully appointed and it was so neat to stay in something so old! Amy was incredibly helpful and kind. The beds are SO comfortable! We were close enough to walk to lots of places and it was really easy to grab and Uber into DC. I felt very appreciated as a guest and would gladly stay here again!
The location is in the heart of Old Town. Very clean property on a quiet block. Plenty of room. Modern fixtures and appliances, and a very clean property. We would stay here again. The host was always available and quick to communicate with us.
Everything from the convenient location and excellent communication to the super comfortable beds and cleanliness was absolutely perfect. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful experience in this beautiful historical home. The property manager was responsive. The house has everything you need. The decor was amazing along with cleanliness. It was very comfortable. We especially liked the walk ability to shops and restaurants. We had the most perfect stay.
Our family stayed at the House during my son's graduation from GWU in May and it was very helpful and a lovely location. Easy to drive into the city, however, we often took an Uber in to address on site parking issues in town. Plenty of space in luxurious home and all the amenities to make it feel like home. The Host, Amy, couldn't have been more accomodating - it was wonderful. I will say that while it comes with parking pass, trying to secure parking is very difficult - it is just the nature of the area. But the proximity to everything compensates for it - just get a space and leave your vehicle parked. Loved the park down the street, the patio with grill was extra helpful and the washer/dryer helped me to maintain some order as my daughter and son flew in directly from their universities and needed a little extra TLC. Amazing comfort and charm in such a lovely DC suburb - perfect for a couple, or family or whatever brings you to DC.
We enjoyed every single detail of this stunning property. Itâs beautiful inside and out! The details and amenities (every single kitchen item you could imagine) were above and beyond. The location is quiet, safe & incredibly close to all of the fun venues that Old Town has to offer. Amy was attentive, prompt and helpful! Will absolutely stay again, 10/10 recommend!
This property was the best we've ever rented, a combination of an incredibly helpful, communicative host, and a most thoughtfully renovated, beautiful, functional property. We travel a LOT, and have rented all over the world, and truly have not experienced a better stay. With enormous gratitude towards the host for really caring about her renters and their overall experience!!
Amy was an absolutely wonderful host and the property was beautifully appointed with everything we could possibly need. We were thrilled to arrive and find it decorated for the holidays which made us feel right at home. It is a lovely, short walk to both the river and King Street. We also loved that the grocery store was just two blocks away.
We look forward to returning next year!
Everything you need and want was available and more. Amazing linens, beds, showers, layout, privacy, and location - fantastic property with personal touches and careful thought. You can telll that Amy is thoughtful and caring. We didnât want to leave - but we had to get back to real life. Would love to come back again - and we know where we will stay. Thank you!!
My husband and I were in Alexandria for several family celebrations. The location of the house could not have been more perfect for most of the family gatherings that were 2 to 6 blocks away. Added to this convenience was the house's proximity to King Street (Old Town's version of Main Street), restaurants, the Potomac River and Windmill Hill Park.
The house has all modern amenities and a comfortable decor. We particularly enjoyed the beautifully landscaped patio. There is a scattering of historic memorabilia thru out the house that is not only entertaining (our visiting granddaughters loved the foot warmer and the voting ballot box) but informative.
Finally, our host was not only hospitable but ready in minutes to answer texts (even on the weekend).
I recommend this house and hope that future renters have as many happy memories there as my family did.
I grew up in PA and live in VA. Iâm a mom of three boys (need I say more)âŠI hold 5 US Utility Patents and my hobbies include: traveling, painting, and spending time in the mountains and on lakes. I also have the sweetest rescue dog named Belle. I love being a host, getting to meet so many fun and interesting people, and sharing my home with adventurous world travelers!
Potomac Court was built in 1790. We love it for its proximity to the Potomac River, its historical charm, the surrounding parks, and its location just steps from King Streetâs shopping and restaurants. We hope you enjoy the historic charm with the modern luxury that this property offers. Old Town Alexandria is a quaint port village with great restaurants and shopping, wonderful parks, and amazing historical landmarks with years and years of history.
