Oxon Hill sits on the Potomac just south of Washington, D.C., and punches above its size with National Harbor’s waterfront restaurants, shops and the MGM National Harbor resort, plus riverfront parks and trails—ideal for evenings and weekend exploring during multiweek assignments.
You’re minutes from Washington, D.C.’s museums, theaters and dining scenes and a short trip to historic Alexandria’s cobblestone Old Town and waterfront, so short-term stays can feel like a lively urban base rather than a dead-end posting.
