such a cool place to visit if you’re in georgetown! Stop by for a tour, or just explore the gardens. Make sure you don’t miss this incredible landmark! My family were shocked when I brought them here for the first time. They couldn’t believe that they had missed out on such an amazing piece of history in previous visits. Definitely worth a visit. It’s incredible to see a living piece of history.

How can one review a historical site? There is history being told, it's free, and there is plenty of artifacts for show. Upstairs is closed off and there is a healthy large gift shop right behind the entrance. It's not gimmicky but is it a pleasant shock to see a historical site continuing to survive against the tide of $$$$ Georgetown development.

There is a fun height ruler showing the height of prominent historical figures. The most fascinating observation is how well insulated this Old Stone House. There is actually little to no noise from the outside once you are inside despite the entrance being a dozen feet from the street. This may be the closest fabrication to a historical time machine as you can get.

This is the oldest structure on its original foundation in Washington, D.C. There is not much to it. When you enter there’s a decent size gift shop and one other room on the first floor. The second floor was closed off. There was only a fireplace/cooking area on the first floor. The garden was decent size but seemed unkempt.

Waiting to get into Crumbs and Whiskers, we found the Old Stone House. Pretty cool little place. Oldest house in DC, and although it's rumored, George Washington did not sleep here. Inside they have a little gift shop and 1 old room. There was lots of information to read about the history. Out back, they have a nice tiny park with some flowers and vegetation. Halfway mIntained, with a few benches and photo ops. In the middle of a bustling Georgetown, it's well in walking distance to many of the stores and restaurants. Free, so a good place to kill some time.

This was a really cool historic site. It's tiny but worth it. There are park cancellation stamps here (I think 8 in all). You walk into a tiny gift shop that has a lot of cool things we haven't seen in other park gift shops. Then you walk back to a tiny one room museum with some info on the house. To park, there is a Colonial Parking lot right behind that we used. It was $25 on a Saturday so beware of that. But we didn't mind since it was close and good distance to other M Street spots.
