An Old Friends' Getaway
The Cottage on King is compact, well-outfitted and lovely. It is walking distance of older Leesburg with parks and the W&OD Trail that runs from Shirlington to Purcellville, great for bikes and walking. There are wineries and much else in the surrounding area, and Leesburg has many interesting shops and great restaurants. My friend and I think we will rent this cottage again. We might even bring our spouses.

Wonderful Stay!
My husband, mother and I had a great stay at the Cottage on King. It’s tiny but we loved it. It’s beautifully decorated and you can’t get much better in terms of location. There were plenty of towels and other amenities to make for a comfortable stay. The beds and pillows were comfortable- not amazing but slept fairly well. You can hear the traffic but it didn’t bother us.

Decent stay
Location is great for walking to old town Leesburg. Very busy streets though, keep that in mind. Neighbors and owner were nice and not a problem. Parking can be tight for a larger vehicle. But a Yukon fits. Weather was freezing while we were there (nothing anyone can do about that) so we were stuck inside for our stay). Would be a good stop to base out of to explore historic downtown Leesburg.

Charming Getaway in Historic District
The cottage on King Street was a treat for us during a special family event in Leesburg. We're thrilled to have splurged a bit on cost for the two of us as the lovely, charming decor of this home matched the feeling of the weekend.
The location can't be beat for easy, walkable access to the historic district of Leesburg with all its shops and restaurants. The interior was decorated with care and attention to detail.
One improvement opportunity is to add blackout curtains to the bedroom to avoid unintentional early-morning sleep disruption - but would be an easy fix for the owner.
A suggested amenity is bath soap/body wash. I usually have it with me, but forgot this trip. It would have been nice to have a small stash on hand in the bathroom.
There was also a load of laundry in both the dryer and the washer upon arrival, so I was met with laundry duty first thing, which was a bit of a pain.

Clean, cozy, and comfortable
We have stayed in VRBO properties since before COVID times, and enjoy them for the ability to “live like a local” in either new places or areas we are quite familiar with. We chose the cottage to be central in Leesburg and meet up with family and friends over the Easter break. It was an easy walk to shops and restaurants, but we also were happy to have space to visit with the family and share a home-cooked meal. The beds and living areas were comfortable, and the sweet little garden in full bloom was lovely to enjoy. Thank you for sharing your home and we hope to be back someday! MaryJo and Chris

Jump into Christmas
We came to Leesburg for a quick getaway. We enjoyed walking to restaurants and seeing lovely old homes and buildings. We went to the Holiday craft fair at nearby Ida Lee Park. I also enjoyed hiking at BallsBluff. The Cottage on King could not have been a better place to stay. It was cozy and quiet, once evening rolled around. Very nice stay!!

Perfect place to stay in Leesburg
The cottage was clean and comfy, and had all the amenities you could want. The location was unbeatable, it's just a couple blocks walk away from the heart of downtown Leesburg and a short drive to lots of wineries and breweries. The host was very quick to respond and helpful when we had questions. The weather was extremely hot when we visited (about 100 degrees outside) but the AC kept the place very cool. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Location & Great Cottage!
Great location right in the heart of downtown Leesburg. Super convenient to be able to walk to all that the downtown has to offer. The space itself is great and provided a good resting spot in between activities - very nice to be able to just pop "home" quickly. The hosts were very communicative as well and proactive. We didn't have any issues, but I got the impression the hosts would've been very helpful if there were. We definitely plan to come back and will recommend it to friends looking to stay in Leesburg.

Smack Dab In the Middle of Historic Leesburg
The location was excellent. Historic Leesburg has wonderful restaurants, breweries, and shopping all within a few blocks. The cottage was adorable and tastefully decorated with many conveniences of home. The house does sit right on a busy Street and you do hear road noise, but it really didn’t bother us. Thanks Kyle for sharing your adorable cottage with us! We will definitely be back.

Great location
This cottage is in perfect walking distance to quaint downtown Leesburg, with its variety of wonderful restaurants & shops. However, it is right on a main road, with no fenced in yard, so Pups must be on- leash.
