Hiking, Biking & History

Great place near to the historic town area. Easy bike ride around the area and great access to the C&O canal. House was excellent and could easily accommodate 10 people or two families. Would stay again if visiting the area.

Beautiful location.

We booked this home for our family who was coming out from three different states for our son’s wedding in Winchester. The home was spacious and comfortable and we really enjoyed the beautiful view from the living room/kitchen area. The kids enjoyed the games in garage and we all enjoyed the Town of Harper’s Ferry. It was just what we needed- thank you!

Perfect for a group

My husband and I brought our two kids and four Scouts from my son’s troop up to hike a section of the AT for five days. The house was perfect - plenty of room, everything we needed and close to the AT, the national park and groceries. The house is just as roomy as the photos show and the games in the garage were a big hit. Thank you!

Peaceful

We had a great time staying at this house. Lots of space for our reunion with a big kitchen and plenty of room to spread out. The location was super, and the neighborhood was quiet. We even saw deer along the road near the house.

Just what we were looking for

Our stay included all that we were looking for and was lovely. The rooms were very spacious and had good quality bedding, towels, and pillows. We enjoyed cooking dinners in the large kitchen and enjoying them together in the dining room. The games in the garage provided a nice break in the afternoons and evenings after a day around Harper’s Ferry. Nothing but great things to say.

Beautiful home in Harper’s Ferry

We had a wonderful stay in this clean, very well appointed and comfortable home. We were in town for a family reunion and this was the perfect size for us. My 78 yo mother was with us so the downstairs bedroom was perfect for her. Other bedrooms were spacious including the bunk room. The kids loved the game room! Recently redone so all finishes are up to date. Great location close to town, shopping, restaurants and brewery. Craig and McKenzie were great hosts, very responsive. We highly recommend!

Birthday weekend

Great weekend with longtime friends! So incredibly convenient to downtown Harpers Ferry, and Shepherstown. The house is clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with all the tools we needed to make meals and desserts. The deck was perfect for coffee and cocktails with a river view. Would love to come again for spring or summer when the sun is shining and trees have leaves, but seeing the fog over the river and the deer scurrying by made for a delightful December getaway. The dudes in the group totally appreciated the shuffleboard game in the garage. Now I have to find one for home because hubby is hooked! I would definitely stay again, and would recommend to any/all my friends for a fun relaxing getaway.

Nice house and location but problems with heating

The description of the house was accurate and the location ideal. However, the heating of the house was a big issue. The thermostat in the kitchen/living room controlled the heat upstairs. And for whatever reason, while the downstairs was very cold, the heat upstairs was VERY hot. In order to sleep comfortably we had to turn the heat down to 63 but then people downstairs were very cold. I really think this issue needs to be addressed. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay but that’s a pretty big issue.

About the host

Hosted by McKenzie

Host profile image
My wife and I are originally from Washington State, but we have lived all over the country being in the military. After being stationed in DC and coming to Harpers Ferry, the mountains and hiking reminded us of home and we we fell in love. Our family enjoys coming up and spending time in this amazing location often. We love being able to host and share our house with others to experience Harpers Ferry.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is quiet and very welcoming with views of the river and mountains on top of that. The location to down town being just a few minutes drive or quick walk to the shuttle service at the National Park was a big part of why we chose this house.

What makes this property unique

This house has two HUGE king size master sweets with an en suite bathroom for each, both with great views.
There is also a large deck with a BBQ and fire place or two expansive living rooms, perfect for hosting groups.
