Getting around
Want to go to DC?
Your options are the Marc train from Brunswick, MD (closest) or the Metro, which you can catch in Reston, VA or Falls Church, VA. Parking is paid in both locations. The Marc to Brunswick is a heavily used commuter train and the schedule is limited at other times. Washington Metro may be a better choice on weekends.
