Apartment Description

Welcome to LUXE Cameron House, nestled in the vibrant city of Alexandria. This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom property is a harmonious blend of history, luxury, and modern-day comfort. Established in 1870, this home offers an authentic Old Town experience... while providing all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. With dedicated work desks, family-friendly amenities, and a wine cellar and martini bar, it promises sophisticated enjoyment.
All essentials are provided, including linens, towels, toiletries, and coffee. Live like the "Hostess with the Mostest" in a home designed with entertaining in mind, featuring a fully equipped kitchen, en suite dining room bar, beverage cart, books, board games, and more. The "Cameron Walled Garden" offers a spectacular outdoor patio space with deep seating for eight, a gas fire pit, a smart 65" HDTV, a gas grill, a fountain, a dartboard, a stereo, and outdoor dining. High-end modern amenities include a home audio system throughout the house and built-in ceiling speakers on the first floor. The living room features an original 1870 fireplace with plenty of firewood stocked. The lower level "Club Room" serves as a living area with a 60" flatscreen, a full bathroom, and a beverage fridge. A wine cellar is available for an upcharge, and Noritake porcelain service for eight is provided for formal dining. Flexible check-in and check-out are available upon request.
Visit Cameron Cellar, our honor cellar where a selection of fabulous and unique wines await you, all priced at $25. Your first bottle is always on the house. Care for a martini instead? Cameron House has two bars, plenty of martini and highball glasses, and an antique cocktail shaker. On pre-approval, your pet family member is welcome. We provide bowls, dog beds, and dog blankets. A fee of $80 per pet per stay up to five nights applies, with an additional $10 per night thereafter.
Just outside your door is the scenic Potomac River Waterfront and vibrant King Street. Cameron House is more than just a lavish retreat—it's your gateway to a cultural journey into the heart of Old Town Alexandria. Immerse yourself in a community that reveres its history with boutique shops, gourmet dining in centuries-old buildings, and countless historical landmarks, including George Washington's Townhouse and the Lee-Fendall House. With a complimentary parking pass, accessible public transit, and nearby Metro stops, you're perfectly positioned for effortless exploration.
While Cameron House is completely renovated, it retains its historic charm. You may experience some creaking floors, longer wait times for hot water, or slightly longer cooling times. The stairs to the lower level are steep with a limited handrail, so caution is advised. Child gates are available for little ones. Cameron House is in the heart of Old Town, and you may hear people passing by often. Tourists often linger and sit on the bench in front of the home. While Old Town gets quiet by 11 PM, the master bedroom may hear occasional laughter and conversation from passersby. Guests must provide documentation verifying their pet's breed and vaccination records before arrival. Any misrepresentation of the pet's breed or behavior will result in immediate eviction without refund. Pets are not permitted on indoor furniture, and guests are responsible for ensuring their pets do not cause damage to the property or disturb neighbors. Any damage caused by pets will be the financial responsibility of the guest. Guests assume full liability for any injuries or damages caused by their pets during their stay. Any violation of the pet policy may result in additional charges or immediate termination of the rental agreement without refund. The hot and cold of the upstairs hall bathroom cannot be adjusted due to the old house plumbing. Portable fans are available for guest use in the downstairs and upstairs closets.
Catering to the needs of our professional guests, Cameron House provides a dedicated workspace to fuse business with leisure seamlessly. A lower-level "Club Room" doubles as a private workspace or entertainment zone, featuring a 60" flat screen for your viewing pleasure.
