The single day bed in the second bedroom boasts a trundle pull out single as well. Extra bedding, pillows, and blankets are located in the closets.

The DC Retreat is a pet-friendly space with a fully fenced-in backyard great for a spirited game of fetch. All pets must be declared (breed, number, and estimated weight) prior to booking. We charge a one-time, non-refundable $50 per stay pet fee for a max of 2 pets (up to 50lbs each). If our staff determines that you have brought an undeclared pet with you during your stay you will be reported to the platform's resolution center and be charged a one-time fee of $200.

Please be mindful of your pet's hair and use the broom to sweep up any excess hair prior to departing. Dog bowls and treats are located in the kitchen for your use.

Please pick up after your pet. Use the provided doggy poop bags in the dispenser, hanging next to the back door in the kitchen, to pick up your pet's waste. We ask that you promptly dispose of any pet waste in the outdoor receptacle.

If you break it, fix it.

If you move it, put it back where you got it.

If you use it, wash it.
