Private English Basement apartment in the scenic, quiet, safe, and upscale neighborhood of Rock Creek Park- one of the Best Kept Secrets in DC--just a few miles from the White House. A perfect retreat for a single person or a couple, with (or without) children, pets, and cars.

This very private apartment has a bedroom with queen-size bed, a kitchen/living room combo with a sleeper sofa, and full-size appliances. The apartment has a private entrance and a private patio. A semi-privatebig entertainment/game room with a pool table, a fireplace, foosball, and a 70 screen TV lounge area is adjacent to your apartment and can be used for your personal relaxation or social gatherings.

The value that stands out and makes the difference.

The kitchen has everything -- from full-sized refrigerator, oven, and microwave to a Keurig and regular coffee makers, toaster, electric teapot, iron, and ironing board-- just about anything to make your stay carefree. Use of shared laundry room is free of charge.

PETS of all sizes are welcome to stay at NO extra charge. The place is a real paradise for pets as it is surrounded by a tall fence and pets can play outside in the back yard without a leash. The wooded park area with many hiking trails overlooking the creek is great for long walks. A neighborhood dog's park is within walking distance from the house.

Guests driving cars are welcome! 24/7 free public street parking and possibly a driveway parking are available.

TRANSPORTATION. The house is located between 16th Street and Beach Drive. 16th Street is a straight line to the White House and most of Washington's business and tourist attractions. There are at least 3 buses running one after another along the 16th street. Bus stop is within a 7 min walk from the house. Columbia Heights metro stop is several bus stops away.
The central location of the house and its close proximity to downtown makes Uber one of the most economical ways of transportation. In rush hour an Uber ride may cost less than a Metro ride.

    The apartment is very cute and cozy, though it is a bit smaller than I expected. However, the game room more than makes up for the size. It could use some cleaning, but overall, the location is fantastic, featuring beautiful architecture and plenty of greenery. The hostess is very friendly and provided helpful information on navigating the city using public transportation.

    This property was one of the best places we have stayed in terms of location, amenities, and quality of the host! There was never a hiccup in the process, and everything was smooth from start to finish. The location was clean, quiet, and in a great location for getting around. I would definitely recommend to others!

    Natasha was amazing. The property was great. Just outside the city in a beautiful park-like neighborhood. Perfect for us and our dog, who enjoyed the yard and our walks to Rick Creek Park. We were close enough to downtown DC to enjoy all the sights and return to a quiet suburban residence and enjoy quiet peaceful nights. Natasha was a fantastic host and made sure our stay was all we had hoped for.

    We loved our stay here. It was convenient to sight see in DC. Natasha was helpful in sharing with us how to access the metro since we are not from that area. My son absolutely loved being able to play pool in the evenings when we returned. So would love to stay here again the next time we return to DC.

    We stayed here for my son’s graduation from American University. We needed dog-friendly accommodations in case our usual dog-sitting arrangement didn’t work out (in the end, our dog ended up staying home). Natasha’s place was in a quiet, safe neighborhood and the accommodations were clean and well-supplied with lots of conveniences to make it feel like home. The property is accurately described in the listing. A great value for accommodations in the District, especially since there is room to park your car. (Hotels charge $$$ for parking!!!) Highly recommend.

    We had a comfortable stay at Natasha's place. We brought our furbabies as well and I really liked that this place welcomed pets. We also enjoyed the game room. Not the cleanest place but it accommodated everything else we needed. Thank you Natasha!

    Small downstairs property 1 bedroom, 1 bath, and full kitchen stocked with many extras. Property allowed dogs, and the fenced in backyard worked very well for exercising the dog as well as the park with walking trails that was close. We had access to the game room with large living room area and pool table as well as 2nd bathroom. We were in DC to spend Thanksgiving with our daughter who lives in Georgetown, so this property was quite close to where she lives and works. Natasha was very helpful with details about the property, answered my many questions, and did everything she could to make our stay very enjoyable. We enjoyed our stay, and will stop again when we are visiting our daughter.

    This was convenient for us because we were visiting someone who lives in Columbia Heights. The apartment was well furnished and clean. Being able to bring our dog was a huge plus. The host is friendly and easily reached. A good choice if you have a car and want a quieter place (and especially if you have a dog).
