Directions:
Walk/Bicycle: There are many left turns along M Street that will bring you down to K Street (which turns into Water Street). You can also walk down Wisconsin Ave until you arrive at K St. Turn right on K St (keeping the water to your left) and walk for about 5 mins until you see the boathouse beneath Key Bridge.
From Rosslyn Metro (¾ mile): Walk across Key Bridge and take the stairs on either side down to the C&O Canal. There are footbridges across the Canal that lead to stairs on Water St. Walk back toward the bridge. The boathouse is located directly below Key Bridge.
From Foggy Bottom Metro (1 mile): From the rotary (Washington Circle), head west along Pennsylvania Ave, then turn left onto M Street and continue toward Georgetown. In Georgetown, you’ll have multiple options to turn left to get to K Street. Turn right onto K St and walk toward Key Bridge. The boathouse is located directly below Key Bridge.
Driving: Please simply put in your GPS 3500 Water Street Northwest, Washington, DC, 20007. Unfortunately, there is NO PARKING within 3 blocks of boathouse. We recommend you get there by metro or park at the Lowes Movie Theater lot, or street parking on Water Street.
