The Silver Lyan is worth the experience. My boss took me here -- and she knows her stuff as an international traveler. It's a private -style hideaway gem in the lower-level (historic bank vault) of the original Riggs National Bank -- now a Michelin-Key hotel. A very unique food and drink menu. I had the Perkin's Purple Punch and a regional Manor Hill (German) Pilsner. The tater tots and doughnuts are spectacular. We also enjoyed the delicious chicken & biscuit sandwiches.

The Holmes Run community was described in the 1950s, the pool was developed much later. It's a great community and the pool offers membership and includes three (3) pools: adult only, kiddie, and the largest pool includes two (2) diving boards. What's unique at Holmes Run is the community events, cookouts, steak night, etc..
