Stayed May 15, 2026Very very nice and comfortable...one suggestion...the house would be even cozier if there were workable lamps in every room...not just overheads.

Stayed Oct 24, 2025It was great except for parking. We had 3 couples and only 2 spaces. Other than that communication, the house and all of that was amazing!

Stayed Oct 9, 2025We enjoyed a fantastic long weekend. The host was friendly, responsive, and made the process inviting and easy. The house was clean and comfortable. We loved that downtown was within easy walking distance and enjoyed many of the shops and restaurants. The house served as a central base for visiting historical locations.

Stayed Sep 25, 2025Adorable house just outside of town. We walked into town for days and dinner. Just bring a flashlight for way home if after dark so the traffic in the last block to the house can see you.

Stayed Apr 24, 2025Our family stayed here for our son’s wedding at a nearby farm venue. Home was spotless, kitchen well stocked for cooking (although we didn’t do any), and the house is very conveniently located in Shepherdstown. We were able to walk to shops and restaurants in minutes. Easy drive to the wedding venue. As noted in the property description, there are a lot of stairs inside and out, so not the best choice if someone has mobility issues. Also, the sunny bedroom with all the windows is really lovely, but lack of drapes on some of the windows and the glass door made it a challenge for sleeping in early morning, and also limited privacy.

Stayed Nov 1, 2024This was a wonderful retreat from the general DC area. Communication with owner was perfect. Space nicely laid out with everything you need, and it is minutes from the artsy, small stores and intimate restaurants in town, Shepherd University, the path along the C and O Canal, the Sunday morning farmers market, and much more! Folks who live in Shepherdstown are naturally friendly, helpful, and so welcoming to visitors. A great place to chill or be more active and simply get a refreshing g break.
