If you're looking for a getaway, book it here!

Melinda’s place was the perfect jumping off point for our family while we spent a week visiting relatives in Fredericksburg. It was a great size and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I’d highly recommend and we look forward to visiting again soon!

Had a great weekend in the Northern Neck here! We watched a pod of dolphins and stingrays from the backyard, enjoyed easy access to nearby parks, and had a great time cooking in the kitchen. This is seemingly a very recently renovated house, and all the towels, sheets, beds, etc. seemed brand new as well. It was super clean, super comfy, and the hosts were very responsive! I liked that the property was surrounded on one side by forest as well—it was nice and quiet and secluded. Finally, they have a super cute collection of board games disguised as old timey books. I'd definitely stay here again!

Staying at the Blue Heron Hideaway checked all the boxes for what we were looking for! It was very relaxing, comfortable, spacious and very beautiful throughout. We were so excited that it was just steps away from its own wide sandy beach with kayaks, a canoe, a paddle board and a fun floating dock, allowing our whole family to be together on the lake at same time! We had so many places to relax and enjoy being together, including a large hammock, a fire pit, and lots of big Adirondack chairs all in a row on the beach. Daniel, our host, was very quick to get back with us on any questions we had and very responsive to help and follow up to make sure our stay was everything we hoped for! And it was! It was hard to leave this beautiful home and setting but we are hopeful to enjoy it again soon!

This home was lovely. A lot of fun activities at the home and right near the lake. We enjoyed the games and golf cart a lot. The beds and pillows were very comfy!

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Colonial Beach Airbnb. The house is very cozy, well stocked, clean, updated and Carmen is a thoughtful host. The deck is a great area to relax overlooking the water and a few tried their luck fishing off the dock. Very nice!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pablo’s home! It was clean and in a quiet area and location was close to the historic downtown area. The beds were super comfortable and the house was cozy. My mom accidentally locked us out on the back patio while we were drinking coffee and Pablo was super quick to respond and let us back in. I highly recommend this quiet home if you are in the area.

We absolutely loved our stay at Brian’s and Lien’s. Brian is very responsive and friendly. The pictures do not do the house justice. If you’re looking for privacy, this is an awesome place to stay. We enjoyed being able to sit around the fire and just relax; no car sounds, no noise pollution, just the sound of nature… We will definitely be back! 😊

Kendall was a great host. She took care of what I needed and was friendly and responsive. The house and location were great! Very private and perfect if you have a dog. We were very pleased. Thanks Kendall!

This is a great place to stay and tour the DC Metro area - provided you have a car. Most days it would take us 30 minutes to get to and from DC though if we hit rush-hour, it was as long as an hour. The space is tidy and great. My kids love the pool, though it was a little cold for me-they swam there every night. Jennifer is great to communicate if you have any needs she gets stuff done right away. Note that there is only one bathroom, which can be a pain if you have a full house of six people. The washer and dryer are small so it will take you longer if you’re used to a full size. She had all the cooking methods and appliances available. The theater room has Netflix and Amazon prime ready for you to watch a show. There is even a popcorn maker. We did not use the gym, but it was nice - comparable to a small hotel gym. Property is in the owner’s basement, so there is some sound from upstairs as identified in the listing. Host stays out of your way but is there if you need anything.

This was in a great location. The apartment was really cute and you can walk to literally everything!!! Parking was a little bit of an adventure but we worked it out :)The videos shared were helpful as well to answer any questions and they offered nice suggestions. The beds were really comfortable which was surprising for a couch. The street was a little loud but not bad and was expected since it was downtown. The space was well used and filled with everything we needed for our stay. I can’t say enough great things about the location though as once we parked the car, we didn’t have to move it again until we left. Also, when we couldn’t get the solar remote to work, but the host was super responsive and helpful and we figured it out. This was a great stay and the red door made it helpful to find the place as well as all the information provided prior to our stay. We had a wonderful time.

The apartment is ideal for a couple or family with children. The airline/aviation theme and decor can be observed all around. Lots of time and effort was given to every detail in the house. It is very nice. We arrived late at night. The place was easy to find and get inside. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. They are close shop, stores, restaurants, etc. The place was clean and well organized. It has everything you may need. The apartment is bright and modern. The host was very helpful and accommodating to what we needed. They set up the patio and made it available for us to use it and grill. Unfortunately, We had a busy week and were gone during the day. If you are a couple, or a couple with two kids; this is your place!

What a calm and peaceful private retreat! My fiancée and I spent a couple of days enjoying the brisk bay breezes and beautiful sunsets at Vickie’s. Everything was exactly as advertised and Vickie (and Scott) are true treasures—extremely responsive and thoughtful hosts who want you to have everything you need. Plus, their knowledge of the area gave us a great introduction to Leonardtown. So much more to the area than we thought! Whether birdwatching from “the best view on the block” or reflecting on the glider by the bay, we loved every moment of quiet and can’t wait to visit again. Thank you!

Enjoyed the very comfortable apartment that Kim and John have made available. They were excellent hosts. We certainly would stay there again if we head this direction again.

We will definitely be back is the best endorsement. Quiet basement space that is in a safe and accessible neighborhood- one bed, living room, kitchen with induction stove, bathroom and cute dining area. Private entrance through the side gate with flood lights making late check in safe and easy. The owner is extremely responsive and lives upstairs but you barely hear anything. It had everything we needed and more. Internet connection was not lightening fast but you can still get online.

The apartment was impeccably clean, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. Christopher was very responsive and provided great local sites for our sightseeing plans. Christopher guided us to several of his dining favorites. The flat was spotless and decorated with a modern touch. Christopher included snacks, which was helpful while we decided our next adventure of the day. Bed was super cozy. Furniture was comfortable and clean! We felt safe in the neighborhood. Neighbors were very friendly. A must stay for sure! You will feel right at home your entire stay! Way to go Christopher, job well done!

Willie's place was just as pictured- super clean and free of clutter living, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. We had an issue getting into the unit initially (code was not working) but I called Willie and he IMMEDIATELY answered and the issue was resolved in seconds. Location is great, could walk or an easy Uber/Lyft into the city or around the area. Also downtown Arlington has lots of cute shops. Less than 10 minute drive to the airport too! The only negative is that this is a four unit shared "house" and the stairs to get up to the unit, along with being on the top floor (old squeaky floors) it is very difficult to be quiet during the after hours (even with just walking in and getting ready for bed). Other than that, the stay was perfect and just as described! Thank you Willie!

Thanks for another great stay! I really appreciate how quickly you communicated with me and your efforts to make the stay as enjoyable as possible.

We had a wonderful stay at Lauren’s place and would highly recommend to anyone traveling to DC!

Abaad was very nice, proactive, communicative. The Airbnb was nice, as pictured. Would stay again.

No ghosts were seen or felt despite being a civil war hospital. Super cute place! Whoever decorated it did a lovely job… those vertical stripes on the walls and all white paint make the basement apartment feel large and airy despite having only a few small windows. Host was very nice and responsive with questions.

Great space in a perfect location in Old Town. Starbucks on the same block, Trader Joe’s quick walk, close to King Street and the water. Place matched pictures and I would love to stay there again when I’m in the area.

Jamil & Rania, are easily the most responsive hosts we have experienced on AirBnb. They made everything from check in to check out so easy; got back within minutes on any questions or concerns. The pics do not do the apartment justice. The decor and layout is in such good classic taste, everything from the wonder sofa, bathroom fittings, Master bed is the most comfortable bed ever slept in and sheets, duvet and pillows are high quality. Going to see if we can buy that mattress:-) Kitchen is very well stocked in terms of dishware, pots and pans etc, Coffee maker and k cups an added bonus, Dis-washer super easy to use. Work desk as super addition for log in to check work emails - wi-fi excellent. Sofa amazing as is mirror and walk in closet. Give them 5 stars, definitely stay again; definitely recommend! Thank to you both!

Mark was really helpful when checking in. The location is great. Perfect place for just the 2 of us staying for the weekend. Clean and had everything you need plus some.
