Vacation rentals with a patio in Lake Barcroft

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.

Thank you Amy for being so flexible and allowing us to book so late at night.

I had a great stay at Uche’s place! The space was very clean and well-kept, just as described in the listing. Uche was super responsive and provided clear, helpful information throughout my stay, which made everything smooth and stress-free. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a comfortable and reliable place to stay!

Chris's place is in a beautiful, sweet, quiet neighborhood full of beautiful homes and a vibrant community. It is very walkable and we had a great time exploring.

Jillian's place was perfect for my husband and I on a short visit to DC. We loved the location so close to Rock Creek Park on a tree lined quiet street. We did have a car, but carless transport would require a bit of a walk to transit to get to downtown DC. The place is a typical DC daylight basement apartment, so a long stay working from home might not be feel a little claustrophobic. Jillian and her family were very quiet overhead which we appreciated. For a night or two this place is great -comfortable bed, excellent shower, comfortable sitting area and kitchen with enough for our stay. We would stay there again if we are back in DC.

Fantastic place to stay! Beautiful neighborhood and close to great shops and restaurants/cafes. Marvin was a very responsive host and very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this place to stay!

APARTMENT: The house is in a beautiful neighborhood that felt incredibly safe, which was a big relief. Plenty of parking. The apartment itself was immaculate and had everything anyone could ever need. The host even provided snacks which we were so grateful for after driving 8+ hours and then sitting through a graduation ceremony! HOST: We drove from Ohio with absolutely nothing planned out other than knowing we had to be at a graduation ceremony immediately upon arrival. I came across this listing and messaged the host. Lena was very responsive and was so kind to accommodate a much appreciated early check in. She provided very clear and easy to follow instructions for check in/out. Absolutely 10/10 stay, and with family in the area, this will absolutely be the 1st place we check when planning our future trips! Thank you so much!

We were so happy with this basement apartment and location. Robert was very helpful and responsive. Most days we drove to the mall parking garage near the Pentagon and took the metro from Pentagon City station to the Smithsonian station (the pre-loaded $30 card available online was perfect for our stay). Driving from the unit to Arlington took mere minutes. It isn't too far from Mt. Vernon either. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. We would stay here again! The current pictures under sell the unit. We were very happy to find it was bigger than expected. It could use a little updating, but we didn't mind. All we did was sleep, eat some breakfast, and return each night with aching feet and legs from a typical day of walking D.C.

Very comfortable and easy to communicate with Claire! Just like the photos. Extremely beautiful, quiet, and peaceful neighborhood. Couch and largest bed extremely comfortable. Loved being here. For accessibility, there's a fully paved walkway from the driveway to basement entrance, just a few wide stairs with a very solid handrail. Well lit. Bathroom is two toilet rooms adjoining a central shower room (all connected with pocket doors). You walk through the daybed room to reach the common spaces.

Great place for 4-5 people; and pretty cozy. Entrance is a little tricky to find so ordering food maybe a little confusing at first but not a problem at all. The host is super responsive and accommodating. The place looks exactly like the pictures and great for a short stay if you’re visiting DC or nearby areas and can drive around.

great place to stay, conveniently located.

Lovely peaceful stay! Lauren was very responsive and quick to respond too. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay! The property was exactly as described - clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared. The hosts were welcoming and responsive, making everything easy from check- in through check-out. It’s clear they care about their guests’ experience, and the little touches made it feel like a home away from home. I’d would most definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and hassle-free stay. Thank you!

It's a great cozy place to stay as it says. The place is very close to the busline, which can take you to the train for the city. Howevr, I have 2 minor things: the path from street to the place where you stay is not ideal, requires climbing down the stones placed on the slope. Also, if you are a tall person, your knees might touch the bathroom cabinet while using the toilet.

Excellent first Airbnb experience! Space was exactly as described and impeccably clean. Located in a beautiful, secure, quiet neighborhood directly across from a park... so pleasant hearing kids playing while heading out to our car instead of typical hotel noise. Daisy and Steven were fantastic hosts, responsive, friendly, and thoughtfully checked on our comfort without being intrusive. Great amenities including off-street parking, EV charger, coffee bar, snacks, and welcome wine. Clear instructions made everything seamless. Would definitely book again - highly recommend!

Wonderful place ! Beautiful and very clean! Host was easy to communicate with

Stay met our needs! Kitchen was very nice to cook in and was very clean.

This was a wonderful stay. I loved how they communicated. Very informative. I was in town for multiple events and the furthest i traveled was 12 min. The location is amazing. Compact amenities. Definitely recommend

This is a rare find and a real treat. I was visiting DC from the UK and had originally planned to stay in a hotel in downtown but as I live in a quiet English village I was worried about lack of sleep from the big city buzz. I searched for an Airbnb (as I always favour these v hotels) which highlighted safety and peace - and Celia's lovely apartment came up. This is such a fabulous place to stay in DC: very quiet and safe area, no night time noise, within 5 minutes of the metro station for a quick same-line journey to the centre, and very clean and comfortable. I loved every minute. The icing on the cake is it's such a great value. Thank you so much, Celia.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the spacious place with (private) parking just right across the street from us. It was quiet and the hosts were extremely responsive and super helpful and friendly! When we come to DC again, we'll definitely book if available :)

This was a perfect stay in a beautiful condo with a terrific host. There was nothing more you could ask for. Katie's condo was as neat as a pin, had everything I needed, and was both easily accessible to everything I wanted to get to, but restful and quiet. I liked it so much. I added it on an extra night.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, well-designed, and very comfortable — it truly felt like a home away from home. The self check-in with a simple access code was super convenient and made everything easy from the start. The location is amazing — close to all the main tourist spots in Washington, DC. We were just minutes away from the National Mall, museums, monuments, and great places to eat. It was the perfect base for exploring the city. The host was kind, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Fast Wi-Fi, comfy beds, and a quiet, safe neighborhood made the whole experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting DC and would love to stay again!

Great apartment! Sean’s apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is completely quiet at night and the bed is good. There is a good vibe in the neighbourhood and the apartment is less than five minutes from a Green Line metro station that will take you directly to the best art museums in the city. Sean and his co-hosts are very helpful and responsive. I hope to come back to Washington one day and if that happens, I will definitely try to book Sean’s apartment again. Thank you Sean, Megan and Loren for all your helpfulness and a lovely stay!

My husband and I came for the Nationals vs Cubs series and the location couldn’t have been better! The house was spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. Israel was incredibly responsive and helpful, always quick to answer any questions and made check in and check out smooth and hassle free! You can really tell he cares about his guests’ experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and conveniently located stay!
