Historic Boonsboro Vacation Rental w/ Grill

The place is good and quiet just need a clean dust

This is a nice quiet cabin with lots of charm and character. Howell was available if we needed something and he made sure our check in was smooth. The large kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals, and there was plenty of space for us throughout the cabin. One caution: It is an old cabin with low ceilings, and uneven stairs that could present difficulties for tall and/or mobility challenged folks.The cabin is minutes from Antietam. Within 1/2 hour there are multiple trailheads and Frederick, MD which is worth checking out. DC is a little over an hour away.We would stay there again, if in the area.

Cabin was what we were looking for. Low historic ceiling and doorframes were part of the charm, however beware for those 5ft 8-9 or above. We loved going into Boonsboro for dinner. The cabin is very close to hiking and only a short drive to Antietam National Battlefield. Our focus of our trip was learning about the Civil War and this short stay was a perfect location to visit the surrounding sites. WiFi was strong enough for streaming documentaries in the evenings, but beware cell service is very spotty at the cabin without the WIFI.

Our stay was great! My partner and I booked over this weekend for our first get away together. We definitely enjoyed ourselves. Fall is a good time to go, the scenery is beautiful.The owner is friendly and warm welcoming. We had a late arrival due to our drive time and Howell waited til we got in to help us settled in. Gave us a tour around the home as well. We love how there is a folder guide for what is around to explore. We adventure out to the caverns near by, markets and a hiking trail. Everything you need is already there for you. The home is is nice with some history to it. If you are not use to farmland, it is extremely dark at night. But there are lights around the front and back as well sensor lights to help with it. All and in all for us we loved and enjoyed it.

We did not stay at all. The house had the strong smell of mildew/mold. With allergies we could not stay. Also we arrived about 1/2 hour early to check what coffee supplies to buy at the store before checking in. I knocked several times before entering and verbally called out. Was greeted by the owner fresh out the shower wrapped in towels who proceeded to tell me all the things wrong in the rental.

Home was nestled in remote location. Very peaceful. Owner was very helpful

We enjoyed our stay, some surprises along the way, but ultimately this is a nice place if you are looking for convenience to Harper Ferry.

It is a charming home with all of the character you look for in a place over 100 years old. Howe is amazing and always tries to make the place comfortable

Nice location, quiet setting, quiet road. Boonsboro is a neat little town, still within 30 minutes from Hagerstown and Frederick. Plenty of room. Host was pleasant and professional. Watch the headspace, the beams and thresholds will get you! At least once!

This place was perfect for us. Secluded and quiet area, great history, and great amenities. It’s definitely a historic cabin and may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who are taller than around 5’9”, or those with physical handicaps. For us it was perfect. The managers were great and communicated with us any time we asked questions. Highly recommend.

Host was very friendly and accommodating. House was stocked with everything you'd need and is rustic and cool. That said it was a little dirty for my family. Beware low ceilings. If you're taller than 5'8 you'll be ducking a lot, probably hitting your head too.

We had a fun stay in this cabin but there are a few things that I wish I had realized before I went. First is that if anyone in your group is over 5ft 8 they will be hitting their heads on the ceiling. The second is that the two bedrooms are connected and that you need to go through the main bedroom to get to the bathroom if you need to pee in the middle of the night.There were a lot of plus sides with this cabin though. The man who lives in the connected area is very sweet and helpful. If you have any issues he is more than happy to provide answers or questions.The location is beautiful! We went during fall so the colors of the leaves were fabulous. There are also a ton of things around if you are interested in hiking or historic events.

It was perfect. Near my son’s school at Shepherd University and close to all the historic sites of Harper’s Ferry and Antietam.

This is an excellent location to section hike the AT from Harpers Ferry to the Mason Dixon line. We anticipated being able to check in at 4PM, but when we arrived were told that check in was at 7PM! We negotiated to 5:30PM. The caretaker lives in the basement and is super friendly, but you can hear between the floors a bit. It was a clean space with easy access to a couple of restaurants and a grocery store. For a place to crash between our day hikes, it worked out very well.
