Love it here, so much to do! Good eats and tons of neat shops. Take a stroll on the Mount Vernon Trail , or rent a bike and ride into DC.

If you like variety then old town is definitely the best place to go. Summer time is amazing because of the waterfront and the restaurants located on the waterfront provide a beautiful experience.

Great area, lots of shopping and food options! Many historical activities and sights and every corner of the neighborhood has lots of hidden gems ! Go on a tour , if you have the time!

From the National Memorial to Torpedo Factory Art Center, King Street offers an evocative stroll through history. Yearly art festivals , house tours and annual parades bring that history to life.

Move a tiny bit off the busiest areas & you can almost always find free parking . Sometimes it's just across the street.
