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.

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.
