We cannot say enough good things about our short stay at Geneva’s cottage! She has thought of every little detail. My daughter and I slept quite soundly in the upstairs bedroom. We would be thrilled to stay here again!

All the reviews are spot on. What I can add to those is this rental is like being in your home. It was cozy, comfortable and oh so clean! We will definitely be back as our son lives in the area.

This cottage was a great find for our three day getaway to explore the DC area. Nestled on a gorgeous and private home property, close to the DC attractions. This cottage is new, very clean and beautifully designed and decorated. You should love it!

As former residents of the DC area, we were hoping to find a place that would feel like home. The cottage was perfect! The space, the location, the amenities and the little touches (chocolates on the bed ;) made our week long stay to visit family + friends simply wonderful.

Clean, well taken care of, very comfortable bed, with 2 full baths (1 on each floor, very handy), great instructions for blinds and all appliances and helpful maps and information for DC. Would highly recommend as a great alternative to a hotel and a top notch VRBO. Parking ideal, right by the property.

Honestly one of the nicest VRBOs weve ever stayed in. Great cottage in a very nice residential neighborhood a short walk from the metro. Lots of nice touches inside. The owner was very responsive when we had a question about the door lock. Would definitely stay again.

Super clean and super cute! Modern and fresh with all the conveniences of home - and more! Plenty of parking available right in front of the house. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit!

This was an impressive VRBO and decided on an alternative Christmas trip to DC and NYC last minute. The host was very responsive and the cottage has pretty much everything you would need for a short or long stay. I loved the neighborhood and the proximity to the attractions downtown. Very clean, new and private. Would definitely stay here again in the future

This backyard cottage was fantastic for our DC trip. The house was neat and clean with everything we needed for our stay. The neighbor was also great. A short walk to the metro made all of DC available to us.

Best rental we have ever booked! Exactly as advertised. Incredibly clean and comfortable. Thanks Geneva!

Three of us stayed in this house for a girls weekend - it was fantastic. The bed upstairs was very comfortable (and the room got so much lovely natural light!) as was the pull-out futon downstairs. Geneva was very flexible in terms of a couple random requests I had for my stay and she had left lots of thoughtful touches and treats out. The location was an easy 15-min walk to the Metro. Highly recommend. And despite it being a "tiny house" in a backyard, the unit felt actually very spacious.

Lovely cottage, lovely stay! Clean, comfortable, perfect location, great host. My husband and I and our 5 year old stayed for one night. Ideally situated for a family. We frequent the area and would stay here again and again!

This little house is perfection and is a top notch example of why I choose owner rentals over hotels. There are so many small touches... coffee, snacks, and every toiletry imaginable. The home is spotless, location is excellent and the neighborhood is beautiful. Highly recommend!

This place is a beautiful property tucked away so you feel like you have privacy and a quiet atmosphere to relax. The location is within walking distance of great restaurants and perfect for wanting to explore DC due to its proximity to the sites. The amenities were very generous as well with spare toiletries and snacks. We are grateful to have stayed here and would love to stay here again.

We had a great stay, in a delightfully comfortable cottage tucked away in the heart of Arlington’s walkable residential area. The cottage seems practically new, and is comfortably furnished—so enjoyable.
