Things to Do in the Area: The little down town in Great Falls (there is a nice Irish Pub w/live music, the Old Broque & several other restaurants) has lots of events/festivals to enjoy. The Great Falls Library is right across the street from the shopping area which also include a playground. Great Falls often has community events, a tree lighting festival that has a petting zoo, a Halloween parade, Oktoberfest and things like that on the village green near the Old Broque. There are two landscape/gardening places between Seneca & Georgetown Pike that also have events like hay rides and Christmas events. The house is a 5 mins drive from L Auberge Chez Francois, on the back side of Great Falls, a top-rated French restaurant with fantastic garden in good weather. Excellent wine & beer selection. If you like golf and tennis, the River Bend Country Club is a few minutes away. Just past that is the Great Falls National Park w/amazing hiking and scenic views. You can hike/bike (or drive) to the Potomac from the house via Seneca Regional Park and the Volcano Island Waterpark is a few miles away, also on the Potomac. Heading West, towards Sterling, there are many classes (Discovery Center, etc.), playgrounds, and indoor gyms. The Bungalow Lake House is worth a visit if you're in the mood for a family-friendly sports bar and Dulles Town Center mall, w/ lots of shops and indoor play area, is just a bit further down Leesburg Pike. Reston zoo is also a short drive away. As far as nightlife, in addition to the restaurants and bars in Great Falls, right at the end of Seneca is a place called Brix that has good food and a nice bar. There's all manner of food and drinks in the many shopping areas in Sterling, Reston, and Tyson's everything from national chains to local big names to a large variety of multicultural food options but we're also not that far (about 20 mins) from downtown Leesburg that now has a lot of great breweries and wine bars such as Delirium, a Belgian place, and Blackhof Brewery, with a German flair. A great old town center atmosphere. The home is close to many of the VA wineries and some pretty breweries (like a place about 45 minutes from here called Dirt Farm Brewery, which has beautiful views). It's also about 10 minutes to Whelie-Reston metro and the silver line for your commute. Landlord is offering furnished/partial furnished options. Ask listing agent for more information!
