We loved the Historic location of this place. Shepherdstown is a quaint and lovely town to spend time visiting. We rode bikes on the C & O bike path and visited Harper’s Ferry. Amy answered all of my questions and gave us recommendations for delicious restaurants within walking distance. The Vrbo was clean and neat and had plenty of room for us to enjoy. Thank you so much Amy.

Perfect location for attending the Contemporary American Theater Festival (CATF) - close to restaurants, the Farmer's Market, wonderful Shepardstown shops and an easy walk or drive to the theaters. The house was spacious and easily accomodated our crew. We enjoyed eating and playing board games in the spacious kitchen and relaxing in the living room.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Bowman

Host profile image
I'm a West Virginian by way of Houston, Los Angeles, and DC. Southern at heart, I love to host intimate dinner parties for friends. Long drives in the beautiful West Virginia countryside is one of my favorite past-times, along with shopping and home decorating.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the Michael Yeasley House and they guesthouse you will be staying in because of the historic nature of the home. The main house was built in 1795. The guesthouse was build in 2004 and has all of the modern conveniences. The main-house fronts onto German Street, which is the main drag. All of the town's amenities are just a short stroll away.

What makes this property unique

You'll love staying in a modern home smack-dab in the middle of a historic town. Walk to local restaurants & antique shops. Across the street from Shepherd University. Rafting, kayaking, and hiking within walking distance. A short drive to Charles Town Casinos and Antietam Battlefield. Ninety minutes from DC and Baltimore.
