We want to go to Washington next year around the beginning of June. Where is the best timeshare location to stay? Is Williamburg too far? What other area is closer?
I only want to spend a day or two in D.C. I would also like to see Shenandoah National Park. My idea of a vacation is not going to a big city but I promised my husband we would see D.C.
We just did this trip in June from Massanutten ourselves. Just about 2 hours to Fairfax/Vienna metro station - very easy ride, and a 20 minute metro ride to Smithsonian station. If you are going to DC on a weekend I understand that there is plenty of parking available, we went on Tuesday and Washington friends recommended the metro as parking is harder to find midweek.
Not 10 minutes.Wyndham Alexandria is really the only convenient timeshare to DC (10 minute
metro ride into town). Anything else is at least a 2 hour drive (at least until
Wyndham National Harbor opens). If you only want to stay a day or 2 and don't own Wyndham, I would just get a hotel room near a metro stop, or downtown....
Hey Laura, I would be interested in more info from you on your suggestion about getting to Washington, THe trip from Massanutten seems a little expensive and I am looking for a cheaper way to do a day trip.
Thanks

We have been to DC quite a few times - but we really did enjoy the bus trip from Massanutten. The tour guide was wonderful, and we saw things/places that we had never gotten around to before. It was worth it for the 2 of us.
Thanks Laura, never been to Washington before, with my DH and me shall be our DD 15 and her BFF. Thought about taking the train to Union Station from Culpeper, VA, and then catching a tour from there. I will look into the way you suggested. How much was the Metro??
