We rented this house for an extended family trip to DC for graduation. It was very clean, very comfortable, and had everything we needed to accommodate 8 adults and 2 teenagers! The neighborhood was great with restaurants, coffee, and grocery within blocks. It is a total gem and the hosts were very responsive. We highly recommend this rental.

We are new at VRBO and this was the greatest option for visiting family in the Kensington area. We loved staying at this charming house. It was wonderful for the 5 of us. It was so close to our relative’s house we could even walk there. The town is absolutely charming. The communication with the hosts was perfect. Thank you!! Absolutely recommend.

Great location

House is located in a nice residential area. The pictures look smaller than the house actually is. 4 adults and 2 children had more than enough room. Well appointed kitchen. Linens and towels were nice quality. Visiting relatives in Silver Spring and will hopefully stay again!

Great house

The house was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would add is dressers for the bedrooms that don’t have them and a space to hang up a coat and /or dress in the main floor bedroom. We enjoyed being there and being able to walk to the grocery store and restaurants.

Nice Base for Exploring Kensington

We were pleased with our stay. The house is nicely laid out -- efficient and compact. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were nice touches throughout such as upscale towels. The location was perfect for exploring downtown Kensington. We wanted to flag 2 items. First, we could hear the downstairs neighbors speaking loudly starting around 6:30 am. Not a big problem, but a little annoying. Second, the stsirs to the upper level are narrow and a bit uneven.We
