Very much enjoyed our stay! Close to all the Harper Ferry’s attractions and surrounding towns. Detailed instructions on how to get there and parking appreciated. Had all the amenities needed. Just the place for us to start our vacation and relax for a few days. Will definitely look to stay here if/when we return to the area.

Owner responded quickly to questions and checked in with us on the day of arrival to see if there were any concerns. Place was great! Perfect for 7 people. It had multiple cleaning and everyday supplies for just about any situation; which greatly relieved the need to bring pack extra.The location was close to everything you could need and want to do. Would definitely rent there again!
