If you are staying with us this season you might want to visit the National Zoological Park (which is Free to the public!). Only one-mile away, you could walk there by following these easy directions from our DC Guest House:
From 2005 Columbia Rd NW, Washington, DC 2009 -
1)Travel a few blocks NE down Columbia Rd (take a left walking out from our entrance) and make your way to 18th Street (about a 1/4 mile walk)
2) Make a left at the Starbucks on 18th and Columbia and you will be on Adams Mill Road.
3) Take Adams Mill Road (for about 3/4 mile) down the hill to Harvard Street and make a left.
4) At the bottom of the hill you will see the back entrance to the National Zoological Park.
Enjoy!
Joseph, Innkeeper
