Glen Echo Retreat

Welcome! This is an ideal environment for study, rest, and reflection. I am a university professor and enjoy hosting students, interns, and visiting scholars.
If you're seeking a serene environment to focus on your work or studies, you've found the... ideal location. You'll stay in a spacious bedroom with an en suite bathroom in a 5,600 sq. ft. house nestled on a park-like 0.3 acres in Bethesda’s quiet Glen Echo community. Less than a mile away from the C&O canal, Safeway, and stores.
