Super convenient, well appointed
Had a great stay. Tons of room for six of us. Plenty of space for games, gathering, and meals. Had all the supplies needed in the kitchen. Great location made it easy to choose the most convenient transportation including metro, bus, or ride sharing. Quiet street with nice front porch.

First time VRBO renter, did not disappoint.
We very much enjoyed our stay. The host was responsive and very helpful. The location is within 10-15 minutes of the Red line metro stop. There are buses that will take you to the metro if needed, but since we were going to be walking many miles each day visiting the Mall and monuments, etc. it was not a bother. The house was clean and well furnished with plenty of room for everyone to relax after a long day of walking and seeing the sights. Two of the bedrooms have bathrooms in them and there is another full bath for the other two rooms to share and a half bath. We would definitely rate this high on our list of places to stay again if it’s available the next time we visit D.C.

Great stay in Eckington
We had a wonderful visit at the large house in Eckington with our large family who gathered to greet our new family member. Trina met us there soon after our start, and was very responsive during our stay. Location was perfect for us as it was only a few short blocks to our son's house, walking distance to metro (about 10 min walk). Parking was great in the back of the house, and we used it and could fit 2 cars when needed. The house is large unique and had ample room for 10 of us. Great common areas, and bedrooms were large. It was a very hot week and the window air conditioners all worked and were adequate, but some had direct cold air onto the beds, which made for either very cold or quite warm sleeping. The only problem we had was some leaking from the plumbing. The bathroom in the upstairs hall had the faucet in the tub/shower coming out of the wall, and when using the shower it leaked into the dining area below. Trina was very responsive, but couldn't get a plumber to look at it while we were there, and so we had to be without one of the showers for half of the stay. There was also a huge storm one night with some leaking from the roof, but it was managed with a bowl, and did not leak any other time. Kitchen very well stocked for our large family, all appliances worked well. House was very clean and ready for us on arrival, and Trina was so nice to accommodate and early arrival and late departure for us. Would definitely highly recommend this house for future visits.

Memorial Day weekend
We had a great stay, it was myself and my husband plus our 3 kids (12,12,14) and it was a perfect place to stay. Everyone had their own beds and rooms, the neighborhood was quiet, we made friends with the awesome employees at the Union Market and it was a simple 10 minute walk to the metro. Highly recommend if your staying in DC with your family and you plan on exploring.

About the host

Hosted by Owner

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Trina,
Welcome to the Heart of Eckington in DC!

I am a very easy-going person, who loves meeting new people, and would pleased to be your host.
Some of my favorite interests include traveling, dancing, and doing new home improvement projects, but most of all spending quality time with my family and friends.
I have seen my fair share of hotels and Airbnb homes throughout my travels.
As a host, I can’t wait to show you the same great hospitality that I’ve experienced across the globe.

Why they chose this property

This home is incredibly special to me. It’s my first home in DC! for over 2 decades.

Now that my children are grown and on their own, we like to share the Joy of our home with you and others that want that homey feeling, while away exploring new states and cities or even a new Country.

This home is a place for you to retreat, relax, reset and rejuvenate, to explore some more.

Thank you,
For taking the time to consider
The Heart of Eckington.
Enjoy your stay.

What makes this property unique

I love the neighborhood:
Being a resident of Eckington for over 2 decades, I have seen this neighborhood evolve from mediocre to exceptional. 
Scenically, demographically, culturally, and recreationally for the good of all.
This is a very friendly and safe neighborhood with a strong sense of community.
Within the community is the scenic Metropolitan Branch Trail, with stimulating murals to capture one’s imagination, while walking or biking, bicycle rentals are nearby.

Alethia Tanner Park, with children in mind a playground, picnic tables and green grass for movie nights on the lawn, nearby restaurants, sports facility, recreation center, swimming pool, grocery stores, strip mall, bus stops, metro stations, and more, all within walking distance. 

Eckington is central to many of downtown DC’s famous attractions, The United States Capital, The White House, to name a few, and just minutes away from Maryland and Virginia.
