About this property

Unique retreat in the heart of Harpers Ferry! Privacy AND location, location!

1940’s bungalow, built right into a cliff! The outdoor area is fantastic - up above the street and town, Flagstone patio, gazebo, firepit and eating area with grill. Your own private waterfall too! (Coming in spring) Hear the river year round, and great views in the fall/winter! Watch the train come through the tunnel from the front porch.

Inside is newly remodeled by an artist. Full kitchen with dishes and cooking pots and pans. Big screen tv in living room, flat screen tvs in both bedrooms, as well as electric fireplaces. New beds with adjustable headboards and luxury linens. Go right out to the patio from downstairs bedroom / bathroom suite. Upstairs bedroom has angled ceilings and a sitting area - you fell like you are in a treehouse! Walk across the catwalk to the boutique bathroom with soaking tub and sky mural. Free parking in driveway.

You feel like you are in the woods, yet are just below the cemetery and down the street from Jefferson Rock and St. Peter’s Church. One street up from High Street in lowertown and all the restaurants and attractions. The best of all worlds!

Spring Bday weekend
Property manager was great and gave us a lot of great tips for a weekend in Harpers Ferry. Found out she has some other rentals that we liked also. We will definitely look these up first when we return. Suggestions The Rabbit Hole was a great place to eat! And The Barn was a great place for night entertainment and drink. Would highly recommend this gem.

About the host

Hosted by Christie May

Host profile image
I starting hosting during covid. I enjoyed it so much that I have been a Superhost continuously, and have grown to have 5 properties! I live in Harpers Ferry and am almost always available! I love meeting my guests and ensuring that they enjoy their visit to our wonderful town!

Why they chose this property

I love Hillside Hideaway because it is one block away from High Street in lower-town, as well as the National Historical Park, both Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers, Jefferson Rock and the Appalachian Trail!

What makes this property unique

Because Hillside Hideaway sits up high above the street, you do not hear the noise below, only the sounds of the river and nature! You are in the heart of lowertown, but feel like you are in a cabin in the woods! You can see the train and tunnel, as well as where the rivers converge.

Choices of outdoor spaces - the front porch, gazebo, or outdoor dining on the deck, fire on the patio.

The interior has just been remodeled. I am an artist and love light and color! The main suite downstairs opens right out to the patio and gazebo. The suite upstairs is very unique, and feels like you are up in the trees! There is limited head height upstairs, which adds to the coziness! Both bedrooms have electric fireplaces, new mattresses with adjustable head heights and smart tvs!
