About this property

Rock Creek Park Residence~ Parking!

Summary:
This newly renovated basement in a beautiful Colonial home has 2 bedrooms and is located just one block from Rock Creek Park with access to downtown DC either by bike, car or metro. Parking!

The Space:
For those looking for outdoor adventure combined with city living!
Come stay in our newly renovated English basement! With two bedrooms, we can comfortably sleep six guests. There is a kitchen, full bath and plenty of parking!

There is a lovely open living area, complete with kitchen for guests to use, and a large SmartTV so guests can rest easy, enjoying each other’s company after a day of sight seeing.

Sleep soundly tucked away from the heavily trafficked streets, and awaken to bird songs and the stunning park just outside of your door.

Enjoy the respite from the hustle and bustle while somehow remaining a stones throw away from the action!

Our Rock Creek Park Residence offers an immaculate refuge for recreation, and a truly grounding and peaceful retreat to escape the action of our Nation’s Capital after soaking it in during the day!

With easy access to metro, nearby farmers market in walking distance as well as TONS of playgrounds and parks, guests can experience the wonderfully unique experience of being immersed in nature while still just a short ways away from the epicenter of the District!

Guest Access:
Guests have access to the entire apartment, it is not shared. There is a separate entrance for guests to use.

There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

Please note - there is a dog in the main part of the house, it DOES NOT have access to the apartment and you should rarely see him, if at all.

The Neighborhood:
Rock Creek Park is a true city escape. While you have great access to the hustle and bustle of DC's expanding history - you are a short stroll from the soothing connection to nature that is so rare to find in a cityscape.

Enjoy hiking trails, horseback riding, tennis, bicycling and the gorgeous, ranger-led Planetarium located in the park!

Getting Around:
If looking for access to DC's major sites, you are between to two metro stops (both with parking at the station).

Other Things to Note:
We want you to make the most of your stay, so we've partnered with DC’s city tour company See DC Today to help ensure an amazing visit, at the best rate possible! Sit back and relax as the finest, most highly-trained and knowledgeable guides take you through the city, to soak up the surrounding history.
Feel free to give us a call to find out about the discounted rates we have secured for Home Sweet City's guests.

Interaction with Guests:
Feel free to contact us; we are very hands on in the communication process and will be in touch before, during and after your stay!

Just right...

We spent two nights here and it was just right. There was enough room for the four of us and everything was clean and comfortable. The bathroom, especially the shower, is amazing and the beds are very comfortable. The coffee is a great bonus too! We loved our stay and felt cozy and at home!

Peaceful stay in quiet and safe neighborhood

My spouse and I stayed with our infant son for over a week at this neat, nice, and well-equipt place. The host lives upstairs with their family who were quiet and friendly. The place is spectacular for the price. The only downside is that it's a 10-ish min walk to the nearest public transportation (bus stop). If you have a car this place is ideal. Would happily stay again if ever in the area

Wonderful place in a great location!

We were very impressed with Home Sweet City. It was as advertised. Clean and well stocked. It was easy to find and convenient to the Metro, restaurants and the grocery store. The host was very responsive and reached out to check on us during our stay. We’ll definitely look at this place on our next visit to DC!

Great for a family vacation

This basement apartment is comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. The location in Chevy Chase right by Rock Creek Park is excellent for families with young children. I wasn’t sure about street parking, but the spot in front of the house was always available so we had no issues there. Overall, this stay exceeded our expectations!

Stay at Rock Creek

This place was great for the two of us. It’s a little small but you know that going in. Had pretty much everything we needed for a weekend stay.

Perfect for our family

Lara & Alex’s apartment couldn’t have been more perfect for our family of five (plus 2 dogs!). Plenty of space, and there were even books for our children to enjoy. We loved being so close to Rock Creek Park, but also the proximity to major thoroughfares for the DC/MD/VA area. If we ever need a place to stay on future visits to the area, I hope we are permitted to return to this property.

Nice

Small and clean property. We missed one night stay due to flight cancel and no refund or offer from the host. that is only concern for me. Everything ok other than that.

Wonderful Spot for a DC tourist

It was a perfect-sized place for my daughter and me to stay as we toured DC. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and we hardly ever heard the upstairs neighbors. Our only trouble was figuring out how to get the key out of the lock box and open the door as the porch light was out. The owner said he would fix it that weekend so I'm sure it is all taken care of for the next guests.

We rented the property for the use of our adult children and their children while they visited us in

We rented the property for the use of our adult children and their children while they visited us in D.C. They could not have been happier with the choice of a place to stay. They loved the location in a neighborhood setting close to the park and easy access to the rest of the city. They apartment was perfect for them and they were very happy with the accommodations. The Home Sweet City team was great to work with. They responded quickly to all questions and needs from booking the property to keeping the temperature in the unit just right. They are friendly and professional.
