Very peaceful and what a beautiful view!! It was a little cool while we were there so we didn’t use the kayaks provided, but would love to go back in the summer. Great outdoor space to drink coffee in the mornings and sit by the fire at night.

Quiet, comfortable property with great river views and access. Stayed 8 days with our two Labrador Retrievers that loved the river. We enjoyed the use of kayaks on the property and spent lots of time on the river. Located within easy travel to plenty of sights, restaurants, and other fun. We had great communication with the hosts. Definitely look forward to going back again!!

Very convenient to Shepherdstown, Harpers Ferry, and Charles Town. Also nice to just sit on the porch or near the river. Hubby caught a couple of nice catfish. Overall a nice place to stay.

Great place to unwind!

Was the perfect place to go and relax. Sitting on the front porch, enjoying the river view really made the time here special. It's a great location if visiting Harpers Ferry or Antietam. Looking forward to coming back again but want to spend more time next time.

Relaxing stay again place

Enjoyed the river view from the porch. Quiet and relaxing area close to Historic attractions. Had a fire in the chiminea by the deck and went fishing several times. The host, Cathy, was quick to respond to our questions. Definitely a place to be lazy and watch the deer and birds around the property.

Stay in Harpers Ferry

Great view of the river and seating area. Book this place if you are a total outdoor person. However, the property smelled of mold and could be cleaner. Also the pictures could be a bit deceiving as the furniture was old and creaky. We booked for 2 night but left without staying the second night because we couldn’t sleep the first night as well.

Beautiful

Beautiful location, really enjoyed the river, the front porch and the grass lawn! The house was clean and well stocked with anything we could need. The only issues we had was that the bunk bed was very wobbly, to the point my son couldn’t sleep in it for fear it would fall on his brother, and the entire place is just covered in ants, so many ants. We had to keep our perishables in the fridge or microwave. Even ants in the beds.

Awesome location for nature lovers and families

Stayed Mother’s Day weekend with my husband and our twin 3 year old toddlers. What fun! We enjoyed fishing right in the river and soaked up all of the outside time we could. It rained one day but we were still able to enjoy the outside with the gazebo on the deck. Very close to harpers ferry for our day trip. Also - no cell service but instructions for setting up call and text capability on the wifi network. Bryan and Cathy were awesome and super responsive when we had questions. I hope to come back again to keep exploring!
