A Battlefield Gem
This historic house was a silent witness to the great Battle of Antietam in 1862, and it's now available as a comfortable, much-loved, well provisioned guest house. The hosts are caring and involved, and the property equipped for comfort, peace, and quiet. Perfect for hikers/bikers on the C&O canal, visitors to the National Battlefield, or city folk wanting a small-town getaway. I'm sure to stay here every time I'm in the area!

Adorable old home in a lovely historical area. Minutes from Antietam Battlefield and Shepardstown. The home was well stocked with everything from coffee to oatmeal. The basement is really cool built around rock.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the house was what I had expected. The check-in was not a problem and the communications with the property owner was easy and straightforward. My only issues were that the shower and drain board at the kitchen sink needed to be cleaned. It wasn’t a deal breaker and I would stay there again.
