Absolutely everything we thought it would be and
more! It's a beautiful home with a gourmet kitchen,
great deck, and amazing upgrades. The home is in
a great location - walking distance to the
monuments, museums, and more. One of the best
VRBO homes we have every rented. Dave is a
gracious host and we will always stay here when
we're in D.C. |

| Two friends and I stayed at this beautiful house Oct 24-27, 2009 and it was so welcoming and comfortable. The pictures on the website almost look too good to be true, but they are very accurate. The house was clean, the beds are comfortable and it's decorated very tastefully. Since it's an old home (150 years I believe), it has loads of character but still all the modern amenities (great kitchen!) and a beautiful tree-shaded deck. The location is so convenient, literally a 10 minute walk to Union Station. We couldn't have asked for more and staying here made our vacation even more memorable. I would definitely stay here again. |

A group of us, 5 female friends from different parts
of the US, gathered in Washington DC in April and
stayed 4 nights at David's townhouse. We couldn't
have asked for a better place to relax, sleep, fix
some meals, and walk to the metro and other
nearby tourist locations. All furnishings, right down
to the linens and kitchen supplies were more than
adequate. The outside deck was a great spot for
meals, desserts, wine, snacks, or just relaxing.
David's hospitality was the best. I recommend this
place to anyone who wants more than a hotel room
for their time in Washington DC. I just hope there
will be availability when I have an opportunity to
return. |

| David, on behalf of our family, I just wanted to thank you again for the use of your wonderful townhome. The location was excellent and we were so comfortable everyday of our trip. I was so sad to leave and wanted to cry!!!! I loved meeting you and Marley. And I also enjoyed meeting Dexter, the wayward cat from next door. I will be referring you to anyone I know who will be visiting the D.C. area. Thanks again, and I hope we'll be able to visit you again soon! |

| We cannot say enough great things about this house! Our family stayed in D.C. for 5 days in July. David was very helpful both before and during our trip. This house was so close to everything. We only moved our car once to go out to the Air & Space at Dulles. This is the perfect place if you want to explore D.C. and I would stay here again anytime. Thanks again David. |

| This house made our trip to DC perfect! It was great to come back to this lovely and spacious house to relax after many hours of sightseeing. The location is ideal with Union Station, the Capital and the Library of Congress all within walking distance. The house has everything you need and there are grocery stores, coffeehouses and restaurants within blocks! The house is beautifully remodeled and clean. Our kids (ages 13 and 16) enjoyed the visits from Marley out on the back deck. Thank you David for sharing your home with us! |

| David's home was the perfect launching pad for our trip to DC. My parents joined our family and the house suited our needs perfectly. IT was wonderful to be able to unwind after a long day seeing the sites in such a comnfortable well appointed home. David was an excellent host, offering accurate information prior to our visit as well as when we arrived. The deck was a perfect spot to relax or have some quiet time. The renovations were done with all of 'the best' appliances and newest materials with respect to the historic beauty of a row house. Everything you need is within a few blocks, the metro, grocerys, numerous resturants, etc.May you enjoy this as we did! |

| We LOVED staying at this house! The accommodations were SUPERB and Mr. Cooper is a gracious host as well. We truly enjoyed our stay and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking to travel to DC! The house's decor was lovely... the artwork, furnishings, appliances, mouldings, etc., were stylish and classic. (Mr. Cooper’s renovation of this historic row house could be featured in House Beautiful magazine!) There were abundant supplies - towels, blankets, pans, dishes, spices, etc. The back deck was a lovely place to relax especially with the beautiful plantings. The bedrooms were very comfortable and we LOVED the rain shower in the master bath. We were very happy with the convenience of the location with respect to Union Station and The Mall and the neighborhood was very nice also. My husband and I, my parents, and our children truly loved the house - the kids are still asking "when can we go back to Mr. Cooper's house?" and I'm wondering how soon we can go back, too. I can't say enough about how much this house made our stay so enjoyable - we want to stay here every time we go to DC! Thank you, Mr. Cooper, for renting your home to us and for your friendliness. :o) |

| This is an incredible house and David is an upstanding man of integrity. He is easy to work with, prompt, and did not misrepresent himself in any way. The home is in a wonderful location - a five minute walk to Union Station, and less than ten minutes to the Capitol! We could not have been more pleased with our stay! |

You will LOVE this Home!!!
My wife and I were looking for an alternative to a Hotel suite for a spring break alternative in D.C.
I WILL NEVER STAY AT THE OMNI AGAIN...FOREVER!!!(and I love the Omni!)
Mr. Cooper's property is thoghtfully appointed,beutifully decorated and was perfect for our family. The location is within easy walking distance of Capitol Hill and Union Station(metro stop).
The local restaurants and grocery were exactly what was needed for a family away from home seeking local comforts.
Mr. Cooper was so very attentive to my family's needs and questions. OUR STAY IN DC COULD NOT HAVE BEEN NICER!!!
Thank You MR. COOPER!!!
We will be back.
Please contact me if you have any questions about this wonderful property.

As the Chief of Staff to an elected leader, I was looking for comfortable lodging in a neighborhood close to the Capitol. In addition to myself, my boss brought his wife and their 4 month old baby.
We wanted to maximize on his time in DC by setting up as many appointments as possible. At the same time, we wanted to be comfortable and have as many routines as possible around us. Making meals, washing clothes and walking thru the neighborhood made us feel more connected than if we were in a hotel.
This house was priced right and fell within our combined per diem rate and it contained everything you could imagine. The house is also large and elegant and it was the perfect setting for us to conduct several business meetings, one of them over a home cooked dinner.
Our host, David cooper was as kind and gracious as you could imagine. He woke up and kindly gave directions to my airport shuttle driver when I called at 2 am.
We are looking forward to staying in the house every time we come back to DC and we highly recommend david's home and hospitality to other travelers in search of a home away from home. |
