We were drawn to the property because of the waterfront area with the fire pit. Upon arrival we found that the first fire pit had no accessible wood and the chairs were mostly broken. When we got down to the water we couldn’t even find the fire pit area because it was so overgrown there was no room for people. The wood was down there but we had no way to get it up to the house. The house proper was as advertised and the host was quick to respond. We didn’t have enough towels and had a hard time finding toilet paper for all the bathrooms.

Hi Jennifer! I’m so sorry you were looking forward to enjoying the fire pit area by the river and found it overgrown! West Virginia is beautiful and wild, and things tend to grow quickly here. I’ve already asked our lawn company to clear that area. I also wish we had known about the firewood, towels, and Adirondack chairs during your stay so we could have helped. We always have extra towels in the brick closet or owners’ closet, and our house manager, who lives five minutes away, would have been happy to bring you more firewood. We now have four new Adirondack chairs in the area, and the firewood has been restocked. I’ll also ask our cleaning team to make sure extra towels are always set out for guests. I’m truly sorry your stay wasn’t perfect. I wish we’d known about these things while you were there so we could have addressed them and made your stay more enjoyable. Thank you again for visiting our place, Jennifer. We really appreciate it and wish you the best!

My friends and I had a great memorial weekend. Songyee was very flexible with a couple of our requests and I very much appreciated it. Nice fire pit with wood available, a grill, and even some s'mores for roasting.

No response for door code No AC once in - temperature high 90’sAfter hours on the road to relax - with no response regarding door code, was very frustrating. Once we got into home, NO Air conditioning- the heat was unbearable. Never had such a bad experience.

Hi Christine, I’m so sorry about the mishap with your visit. We were visiting my parents in Korea, and I mistakenly got confused by the time difference and neglected to send you the access code. I have never had that happen before, and I felt absolutely awful about it. To make matters worse, the severe storm that passed through the area appears to have caused a lightning strike or power surge, which burned out the air conditioning control board. As soon as I learned of the issue, I immediately contacted an emergency HVAC technician to arrive as soon as he could. While waiting for them to arrive, I also reached out to several neighbors to see if anyone could help troubleshoot the problem. In the meantime, I also offered the use of our next-door neighbor’s cool living room as well as a neighboring VRBO for the night, but I understand you chose not to accept those options. I truly feel that I did everything I could to resolve a situation that was completely unexpected and beyond my control. I always strive to provide my guests with a comfortable and enjoyable stay, so I was genuinely heartbroken that your experience was affected by these unfortunate events. Again, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this caused. Thank you for your understanding, and we wish you and your family all the best.

The house had plenty of room for our group. We appreciated all of the board games and ability to spend quality family time together. It was a bit of a hike to get to the river, but absolutely beautiful when you got there.

Stayed here with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday and explore Harpers Ferry. We enjoyed the house very much and we found all of the games and supplies that came with the house to be superior to other rentals that we have had. The hike to the lake is definitely as advertised for someone that is in really good shape part of it is stairs and the other part is a rudimentary trail that is on an incline. The views were spectacular and we enjoyed as city people having a weekend in the country feeling far away from everything. It felt like camping without all of the hassles of setting up and staying in a tent. We would definitely come back and the host was very responsive and generous.

We and our friends have traveled to many vacation rentals over the last 10 years and we all agreed that this rental in particular ranked among the top sites. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the common area and how comfortable everything was. Our host was prompt with her replies, which we greatly appreciated.

Beautiful views of the river. The house had everything we needed and was plenty big for 8 people. The nature walk down to the river isn’t for the weak hearted but totally doable with some hiking boots. We loved our stay and would do it again.

Comfortable house with a beautiful view

Enjoyed our stay, hosts very easy to deal with. The house was comfortable and we enjoyed the view and the outside spaces and kayaks were a big hit with the fishermen, however access to the river was not ideal for our family of mixed ages requiring a drive to access the water.
