Welcome to Harry’s Place, dedicated to a highly-regarded member and major influence architecturally of the historic town that he called home.

Great quiet location along the river. Host was very responsive when we had a question. Really nice stay, jumped on the VRE to visit DC. It was nice to be away from all of the traffic and noise. There were also many nice eateries (Thai, Greek, Italian and really good pizza) within a short walking distance of the property.

Love this place!

We’ve stayed at a few different rental places in Occoquan and this was by far the nicest with an incredible view! Reasonably priced, walking to everything, and a clean, comfortable place to stay. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Quaint & Comfortable Stay!

This apartment was perfect for us while visiting family in Silver Spring, Arlington, & DC. We loved the quaint little town of Occoquan with the beautiful river, park, great shopping & restaurants. However, beware … most of the businesses are closed on Monday & the eateries close early. Our accommodations were exceptionally clean, offered a convienent check-in, & stood above a great little chocolate store! We will be back!!

Mill street has so many restaurants and shops and the historical buildings it was beautiful. We will definitely visit again thank you Christina for a wonderful place to stay . Also cannot forget the chocolate shop in the front the chocolate is amazing and the owner was very entertaining.

Short and sweet

Even though there were no bells and whistles to this spot, it was perfect for occoquan. The location provides an awesome view to the river and it's centered right in the heart of town. Cobb was very responsive and super accommodating, ready to help with any questions we had. Would definitely stay there again or anywhere Cobb is hosting. Thank you!

Amazing View

We loved staying at Harry/Ann’s place! The view of the river is fantastic and the porch and outdoor area is lovely to hang out on. The rooms inside were clean and quaint, and loved how bright and sunny it got during the daytime. We would recommend bringing your own towels, the ones provided were too small for our taste. It’s definitely a shared building and there is some noise from upstairs. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs.

River get away

The apartment was perfect for 2 or 3. Beautiful scene of the river. The shower was fine. There is only one sink and that would be the bathroom. Water pressure was very low, and the sink "stopper" was not opening - the handle was broken. The host was notified. That was the only problem. The town was nice. Many places to eat. Madigan's was great-and on the waterfront.

Occoquan visit

Property was as listed. Only issue was water pressure in the bathroom sink. Water came out as a drizzle. Informed host and they thanked me for letting them know and said they’d get it fixed. It’s definitely a beautiful setting right in the Occoquan river. I’m originally from northern Virginia which is why I picked Occoquan as a place to stay. Very convenient to almost everything. Definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants a quaint place to stay. Occoquan is full of history and there’s plenty of history very close by.

Came home to visit family

My mom was nice enough to get this spot for me and my boyfriend for a long weekend. I came home from California to see my nieces graduate, and brought the boyfriend home to meet family and see DC! The space was clean just didn’t seem “lived in” and it was cozy, but there were a ton of spiders where we were supposed to eat (I would have vacuumed them all up myself but I wasn’t opening any doors looking for a vacuum after seeing all of the spiders) and it took two days to have someone come and clean them out. We mostly stayed in the bedroom. The bed was a sleep number which was cool! But it was loud every time we moved. I love Old Town Occoquan so the location was great, right on the river. It’s right on top of an art gallery and next to the shops and restaurants.

I love traveling and sharing that traveling with someone who appreciates it as much as I do. I think everyone should explore, dream, and be mindful to life they live now.
