Wonderful Getaway!
Great spot! Spent the weekend with three girlfriends and had a blast. The home was spotless, cozy, modern, and with a very well-equipped kitchen. Beautiful, bright windows, excellent views, and warm, inviting decor. Owners were responsive but not intrusive; we had no issues during our stay. I can't wait to come back!

Total relaxation
Very clean, very quiet location but still close to everything. Easy drives to both Harper's Ferry and Antietam. Great small towns to visit, and wonderful restaurants close by. Be sure to make time to have an evening around the firepit.

What a great place!
We loved it! The design of the home is so comfortable! Extremely well appointed having everything we needed. Owner is super responsive and there isn’t a thing more we could have needed or wanted. Close to so much history and really great small towns. Super restaurants and phenomenal museums! Very quiet area but very convenient! Would stay again without question!

Peaceful retreat
Nicely appointed. Good bed pillows. Water softner a plus. Private yet not isolated. Seemed to be 10-20 minutes away from most activities of interest. Zeb was very prompt to answer questions when they arose. On the minus side..., BBQ had been ignored from possible lack of use,...No kleenex tissues in the bathrooms and no towel bar in the primary bed/bath. No reading light in the livingroom (except overhead)... all minor things in an otherwise exceptional property.

Beautiful home and centrally located
This home was exceptionally clean, easy to find and centrally located. We have rented a lot of VRBO listings and this one is very well kept. Everything you need and close to Antietam Battlefield, Harper’s Ferry, Sharpsburg, Boonsboro and more. They left us a bag of popcorn to enjoy which lead to a visit to the Mountaineer Popcorn Company local to Sherpherdstown so we could bring back gifts for our grandkids and for ourselves! Truly enjoyed our stay!

Outstanding!
What a nice place to unwind! This is a very new, very well-built and very clean place to relax and enjoy the country air and atmosphere. It’s 15 minutes’ easy drive to the Antietam National Battlefield, and about the same to Harper’s Ferry. The house is very comfortable and the interior is bigger than the pictures made it look. A winner!

Beautiful home
Overall great stay. Truly beautiful home, much better than pictures. A couple of things less than perfect for us but may not be an issue for you. Very soft mattresses in all beds, we prefer firm and therefore uncomfortable for us. Water pressure in showers really low, which was a little frustrating. Property is gorgeous but right on a main road, lots of traffic passing by all day. Really high-quality windows and doors, so we were not able to hear any road noise from inside the home, but sitting on the front porch with a cup of coffee was not as relaxing as we had hoped. But the house itself could not have been better. Overall we had a great time and loved the nearby outdoor activities.
