Amazing hosts- rental had games, welcome kit, fully stocked kitchen , plenty of blankets, fans, books and toiletries. The parking spot is a game changer and the location was perfect. Keep in mind this house is historic and probably 100 years old so just know what to expect for an interior that old but if you love history you’ll love the house. Warning if you have toddlers/little kids with old stairs and low or no railings. It was perfect for our hiking weekend getaway. We loved the TV room, the porch, the amenities and the beds were so comfy!- light sleepers the trains come all night! The hosts really put effort into a good experience and would definitely recommend!

This was a great place for a couple of days of relaxed, catching up with friends. We sat on the front porch, talking, people watching and even playing a bit of music. The house is quirky and fun, but has everything you need. Jessica and Owen provided snacks and toiletries that felt quite luxurious. Their guidebook was very helpful. All of historic Harper‘s Ferry was just steps away, so it was easy to go out to explore for a bit and then return. Our two pups also enjoyed their stay and the ability to alternate exploring and chilling on the front porch. (One especially seemed to want to stay as indicated by his sitting in the suitcase so packing could not happen.) We were stuck by the friendliness of everyone we encountered, including AT hikers passing by, shopkeepers, restaurant staff, and random people like ourselves. Because this is an older home built into a hillside, the steps inside and outside the house are a bit tricky. There are also small step level changes between the floors in different places (not a problem once you get used to them). The windows are old and mostly nonfunctional, but the AC was good and fans were provided. All 4 of us loved the house, its location and how well it worked for a relaxing catch-up time. Jessica and Owen were absolutely wonderful about communicating. We will definitely return in the future.
