Here are a few kind words from previous guests:
I could not recommend Clare's place more! The location was absolutely perfect for our family trip to DC and in a beautiful neighborhood. There is a metro with parking just a few minutes away or it took us 20-40 minutes to get into DC depending on traffic. The house was beautiful with a great setup for families. The deck and yard was gorgeous with room to run around and play and even a swing! The beds and couches were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The neighbors were super friendly as well- stopping to introducing themselves and offering assistance if needed. Clare was very responsive any time I reached out. I was nervous with the limited reviews, but I guarantee you this house is exactly as described and will not disappoint. Thanks so much, Clare!

This was a great little place to stay in a quiet neighborhood. The house was enough space for us and our 2 young boys. Having a fenced in backyard was really nice! Clare did a great job with communicating. She even gave me a heads up she was in Europe, but I couldn’t tell based on her response time. We had a great time in DC and this was a great place to stay. It was close enough, but still residential enough that traffic wasn’t an issue. 30 minutes on the Metro Rail to the Smithsonian station. I’m not sure you could do that in a car. About an hour from Dulles and 20 minutes to Reagan National Airport, all by Metro. Great location for a home base. 10/10 would stay here again!

Our family stayed for a week and felt instantly at home as soon as we walked in the door. The house is well appointed, and clean. A short walk to Westover shops and restaurants. I definitely intend to stay here in the future. Thank you Clare for a wonderful stay.

Exceptionally well appointed and IMMACULATELY CLEAN home with all the cozy comforts of one''s own home. Claire our host is attentive to all details and communicated everything quickly. We loved our stay here and the location cannot be beat as the residence is close to all the the DC Metro has to offer. If we had to come to DC again, we could not imagine a more perfect place, and all 4 of our group felt the same way. Thank you to our host Claire.

We had a fantastic stay at Clare’s house in the Arlington neighborhood (Westover). Clare was the most responsive host I have ever had. Her house was clean, well equipped, and was a great spot for me and my family. Was great we could walk to westover as well! Thanks again !

A great space in a great place.
First, the neighborhood is wonderful. It is quiet and friendly. There are tons of restaurants and grocery options within 2 miles and several options in walking distance. There is a metro station a short drive away or you can drive right into downtown DC in about 20 minutes. The house itself is charming and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. The weather was incredibly hot the week we were there but the house kept cool. Unfortunately we didn't get to try out the deck and grill due to the temps but maybe next time. We had 6 people in our group and it never felt crowded. The host was always in communication and very friendly. Checkin and checkout were super easy. Unfortunately we had to cut our visit short due to a health issue with one of my family, but we are already talking about a second attempt at staying here in fall or spring. I highly recommend this property.

Comfortable, adorable home in beautiful neighborhood
My group (5 adults, 2 teenagers, and 1 child) had a wonderful stay in Clare’s home. All of the personal touches, well-stocked kitchen utensils, and overall cleanliness made our trip to the DC area so wonderful. The short drive and easy parking at the East Falls Church metro station was just what we needed. After a busy day of sightseeing, this home was the perfect respite. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and lovely. There are several grocery stores, within short driving distance. Falls Church has a cute downtown, and we appreciated Clare’s recommendations. We had two cars, and parking was easy on the driveway and street. The beds were comfortable, and everyone had their personal space. Clare’s communication was top notch. She promptly answered any questions about the area or about the house.

Clare does an amazing job to make this house seem like you were visiting family. The house was well stocked and the patio with lighting was our favorite place to hang out. It was so close to all sightseeing locations in DC. We would definitely stay there again.
