Pet Policy: We now allow up to 3 dogs! No cats, or other animals permitted. There is a one-time $75 pet fee.

The space is newly renovated and beautifully designed and decorated to make you feel right at home. This three-bedroom home sits on over an acre of private land providing plenty of space for up to six guests. The entire property is 100% private and yours alone! The home sits at the top of a hill overlooking Antietam Creek Vineyards and parts of Antietam Battlefield with a stunning view of the mountains in the background. The view can be enjoyed best sitting at the brand-new kitchen bar sipping your morning coffee or from the walkout deck on the back of the house! For a change of pace, head into the wooded space in the back of the house and build a fire in the fire pit.

We’re happy to welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes! Our deck features a sliding gate, creating a fully enclosed space where your furry friends can safely enjoy both indoors and outdoors with you. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate cats or other types of pets at this time.

Outdoor amenities/Winery/Battlefield - The large deck attached to the back of the house is accessible through the large sliding glass back door and also from the driveway on the left of the house. A gas grill and utensils are provided on the deck along with a table and chairs for outdoor dining. Immediately to the left of the driveway is another very long driveway/road which is the entrance to Antietam Creek Vineyards, which is about a five-minute walk or a five second drive down the hill. If you make a left at the winery, you will be headed out onto the battlefield towards Snavely Ford Trail and Burnside Bridge. Between the house and the winery is a wooded area which you also will have private access to and includes a picnic area and a fire pit with chairs. Firewood is not provided so please bring locally sourced firewood if you would like to build a fire!

You can find all details about products and live music schedules on the Antietam Creek Vineyards website.

River Tubing/Kayaking - As an added service, we offer up to SIX HIGH QUALITY RIVER TUBES available for you to use along with an air pump to inflate them. Note that the air pump is not cordless so tubes would need to be inflated at home or powered with a car adapter. There is a flat fee of $10 per tube which covers the entire length of the stay. If the weather permits, I highly recommend tubing down Antietam Creek. If your group has at least two vehicles, ask me for info on put in and take out options and you can do it all yourself! Otherwise, there are plenty of local companies where you can tube, kayak, and more and they provide shuttle services back to the put in. There are options both in Antietam Creek and the Potomac River.

Kitchen & Dining Room - There is a large kitchen with plenty of cabinet and counter space, including a brand-new kitchen bar with three bar stools. Dish sets and silverware are included for at least six people as well as pots, pans, ovenware, knives, cutting boards, and cooking utensils. The kitchen is complete with all standard appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, stove/oven, and refrigerator with freezer. The coffee station is a Keurig machine with complimentary k-cup coffee, cream, and sugar. The dining area provides an additional four chairs around a large dining table.

Living Room & Laundry - A perfect space for relaxing, socializing, or watching a movie on the flat screen. Open the closet in the entryway to find brooms/mops/cleaning supplies and the brand-new washer and dryer. Tide pods are provided for your convenience.

Bedrooms - Our three bedrooms are each designed with their own unique feel and character. Each includes comfortable queen-size beds made up with all linens, blankets, quilts, and pillows as pictured. There is a flat screen smart TV in each room for your entertainment and an outlet bay with USB and wireless smart phone charging station on each nightstand.

Bathroom - Our fully remodeled bathroom includes newly tiled floors and a curtained shower with bathtub. Bathroom is fully stocked with the necessities (towels and toilet paper) as well as shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, and a blow dryer for your convenience.

Guests have private and exclusive access to the entire 1-acre property which includes the entire house, front and back yards, including the wooded area with fire pit in the backyard that extends down to the vineyards.

The winery often has live music on their outdoor stage which you can usually hear from the deck! It's usually barely loud enough to hear clearly from the deck but creates a nice atmosphere. Check the Antietam Creek Vineyards website for details and live music schedules!

During certain times of year on the property and in the surrounding area bugs can be bad. During these times please bring bug spray just in case if you plan to spend a lot of time outside!

Cell phone service, especially for Verizon customers, may be weak on the property and much of the surrounding area and even downtown Sharpsburg are complete dead zones. High speed WiFi is included onsite and it is recommended that you connect to the WiFi and enable WiFi calling on your phone if you are having any connection trouble.

There is a Ring doorbell system (video camera) at the front door which covers the area in front of the house including the front stoop, entire front yard, and driveway. This is for your security.
