One of my favorite escapes from the crazed sidewalks of M St. Along with the actual Old Stone House, the garden behind it is the true gem most of the year. Nothing fancy but still warm, inviting, and with places to sit and take a breath. Spring is particularly pretty here.

This is part of the National Park system. It is what it says - an Old Stone house. There is a gift shop and tiny exhibit.

Super cute building, being the oldest in D.C. Also incredibly haunted, according to legend. Check out the gardens in the back!
The Old Stone House is the oldest unchanged building in Washington, D.C., United States. The house is also Washington's last Pre-Revolutionary colonial building on its original foundation. Built-in 1766, Old Stone House is located at 3051 M Street, Northwest in the Georgetown neighborhood. Currently, Old Stone House is closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Please feel free to enjoy the open gardens and visit the Rock Creek Park Facebook page for more information and updates.
