The history of the home and location was interesting but the house is dated and in need of updating. However there was plenty of room and the location was ideal.

The property was beautiful. We especially enjoyed sitting on the front porch whenever we were between excursions around town. It is very conveniently located and within walking distance of restaurants and town. Our host was easily available to answer any questions.

Pros: The cost for what you get is excellent. An entire house both near the water and accessible to the small downtown area. Quiet neighborhood. Although no driveway, we were able to get parking directly in front every time. It's an old house but well kept with a modern enough kitchen and central air that worked great. A big bed and having laundry was a nice bonus too. Cons: The home could have been a little cleaner (some dust, cobwebs), especially the shower which also drained very slowly until we put a liquid plumber type of product in it. Some of the seasonings / condiments in the cupboard were expired. Overall, a positive experience, good value for the money. If it were a little cleaner it'd be perfect. I would recommend.

My friends and I loved this charming and spacious house in the heart of historic Marietta. Coffee on the porch watching the barges go by was a treat. And good dinning was just a short walk away. A real find!

The house is interesting from a historical perspective. We enjoyed the Victorian furnishings. The bed was comfortable. The host was responsive. The nearby restaurants were excellent, and the views of the rivers were great.On the negative side, there was black mold in the upstairs bathroom near the shower; the iron and board was missing; parts of the front porch were filthy and there were signs of termites.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Oct 2025
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback and for staying with us at the Harmar House. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home’s historic charm, comfortable bed, and convenient location near Marietta’s beautiful riverfront and great restaurants. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. The missing iron and ironing board were unfortunately misplaced before your arrival, but we did provide an alternative option just a minute away at one of our nearby properties. Both items have since been replaced at Harmar House. We also appreciate you bringing the bathroom concern to our attention — our team visited the property the very next day and fully resolved the issue. Your feedback helps us continue to improve the guest experience, and we truly value it. We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime to any of our McKenna Lodging properties in the area.

Little charm in Marietta

This property is very cute with a gingerbread charm and a lot of character. This place has been redone and has plenty of space for families of all sizes and resides in a great location close to everything Harmar and downtown Marietta. The property owners communicated very well and no issues. We highly recommend this property and hope that others have as great experience as we did for the holidays.

Victorian home with modernized kitchen and bathrooms

Very Victorian main areas of house. Nicely modernized kitchen and bathrooms. Washer dryer and fully fenced back yard. The kitchen is large but not fully equipped for cooking. Limited pots pans and cookware. Overall a fun place to stay within the popular Harmer area.

The house was great. It had plenty of seating, and the living room and bedroom furniture was very comfortable. I loved the Victorian style, dark wood, and antique feel. It had a large kitchen and upstairs bathroom (along with the downstairs half bath). Note that no bedrooms are on the ground floor, if that is important to you. It is dog and cat friendly. The house was very clean, but the living room could have been cleaned of cat and dog hair better. Bring a lint roller, but that is minor. For anyone with cat or dog allergies, this is not the house for you, though, even if you travel with air purifiers.

Overall nice

Old, but comfortable. Could have used a bit more cleaning and a few items could have been fixed, or maintained, and there was nothing in the backyard.... No fire ring, no chairs, no grass. It is close to many good places to eat, so, overall...we enjoyed our stay! The host was helpful and answered our questions promptly. inHost was very helful with our questions.
