Cute little house that my husband and I enjoyed for the weekend. Great location close to Martinsburg. It had everything we needed for our weekend The host communicated well, we had no issues, and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you!
We were all impressed with this little house. The host had done an amazing job with the space. It was so cute and nicely decorated and clean! Rachel is very welcoming and accommodating and we had no issues with any part of the process.

Thank you so much, Tricia! I was honored to host your family.
The property was charming, clean, and easy to access. It made my stay at Fort Fredrick State Park for the Market Fair very cost-effective, with clean, private accommodations to come home to at night. Well worth the price!
Rachael left us detailed instructions that were so helpful in making our stay smooth and easy. Once we set up the extra bed, there was plenty of room for our little family to sleep. We appreciated the snacks and coffee and the abundance of clean towels and sheets. Beautiful view of the Potomac river, which we enjoyed no end.

Thank you, Matthew! I hope to host you again in the future!
My boyfriend and I wanted a nice quiet and relaxing getaway near Harpers Ferry. We came across this listing and were immediately drawn to it. There was a small hiccup with the door code, but Rachel responded quickly and we were in. Very cute place, for two.

Liked: Communication
I booked this and Racheal warned me she was on the West Virginia side of the river... I hoped I would find a bridge across near her place but I didn't (I'm riding a bike across America). Her communication was impeccable! I only wish I could have stayed! Maybe next time!
