A peaceful, forest retreat with stunning views near historic Harpers Ferry.

Disclaimer: not a guest that likes to reach out to the host during a stay. I do message ahead to confirm things.TL;DR: place overall neat, host nice, likely more ideal if just humans. Great view off the deck. Multiple TVs. A French press & water kettle available if you bring coffee & tea. Water cooler worked well. Not as secluded* as exterior pictures indicate. Pets restricted to main living room and kitchen area. —-Place was clean. Been curious about art frame TVs, neat to see them in action. Loved the view. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean, towels fluffy. Trip’s goal getaway for my dog and friend. Wanted a secluded spot allowing a dog over 50lbs. Plus with the pictures of this listing - booked this non-refundable last minute. After booking, learned pets restricted to main living room and kitchen area. Spacious enough so it worked out, not sure I’d pick if I had known. Did not spend any time in the lower level; if it was a different kind of trip, would have. Front door has a large window; not a lot of activity but fyi if your dog takes being a watchdog seriously.A cool music set up but didn’t utilize. A welcome binder/paper with instructions for things like that would be nice.Checkout easiest. Load dishwasher, take personal items, lock doors. Took out trash out of habit but it wasn’t a thing we had to do. *Secluded in comparison to housing communities sure. Aerial shot kind of looks like flat backyard, not accurate.

There were a lot of features about this property that we liked. It was very spacious and we were happy to be able to bring our doggie with us! Dogs are not allowed in the bedrooms or downstairs but it was pretty easy to manage because you could enclose your pet in allowable areas. The property was relatively clean but there was a lot of left behinds. Stuff in fridge and cupboards, in the bathroom drawers. Some spaces were locked up and inaccessible. This property says it is waterfront. You cannot see the river but you can hear it. Perhaps in the winter you could see it through the trees but don't expect to be sitting by the river around a campfire like some of the pictures show you. The host was very quick to reply to any questions we had.

House was clean and loaded with required amenities. We loved the backyard view and the proximity to the lakeside picnic area.

This place was perfect for our remote work for a week. It is very convenient to many things and has the best view! Host was extremely responsive.

Excellent and beautiful place! Would love to come again in the Fall to see the beautiful view

Very clean. Host extremely responsive. Pet friendly.

Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood with an unbeatable view. Short drive to Harpers Ferry and Shepardstown. We had a great stay!

Great place to stay!! Very happy with the accommodations

Great location to go kayaking, rafting or tubing. Very convenient to Harper's Ferry Historical Park. Quiet neighborhood with plenty of friendly deer. Beautiful view from the back deck and the perfect place for our 2 dogs.John was very accommodating and responsive. Beds were comfortable and the young adults enjoyed their space in the basement to hang out, watch TV, play video games or exercise.Would stay again.
