This home is located just outside Marietta PA, across the road from the Susquehanna River and Susquehanna River Trail, which connects the historic river towns and villages of Columbia, Marietta, Bainbridge, and Falmouth. Cross the street and you're in the historic river town of Marietta, which features a nice selection of restaurants and taverns and loads of charm.
Guests have access to the entire home and outdoor areas. Please see the photos for some highlights.
The owner will always be immediately reachable to address any and all questions.
Plenty of parking on the property. 5 minute walk to public transit. 25 minute drive to Harrisburg International Airport. 80 minute drive to Baltimore/Washington International Airport. 90 minute drive to Philadelphia International Airport.
I simply expect our guests to treat the home as they would their own. We do not allow pets and the home is non-smoking.
