Quiet cabin

Enjoyed our stay. Quiet & comfortable getaway. Grounds need a little attention around pool & firepit. Nice access to creek and close to historic sites. Owner provides a lot of helpful information. Clean & cozy.

Great location with a rustic vibe

My sons and I spent 5 nights in this spacious cabin in the woods. It was a great spot for visiting surrounding Civil War locations and the local towns. Being in the woods and so close to Antietam Creek made the experiences even more memorable. Access and communications were timely and easy. Really a great choice!

Birthday Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at Lisa's property. The property was well stocked and although no air conditioning, with the pool and in the canopy of the trees, it was very much bearable. My favorite aspect was definitely the creek and getting to unwind peacefully. The place could use a good deep cleansing but you're camping, so for me it was kind of expected.

Great Visit to Antietam and Harpers Ferry

The Antietam Creek cabin was a great base for our visits to Antietam Battlefield and Harpers Ferry. Check-in was easy with the lock box on the door. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The pool was cool and refreshing. The cabin does not have air conditioning, but there are plenty of fans to keep the air moving.

No river swimming

From the pictures on VRBO it looks like you can just walk to the river and get in but you can't it was so over grown that was impossible. If you were to kayak (of which we planned on doing) I'm not sure how far past the property you would have to go to get out. Needless to say we didn't kayak. We still had a nice week

Peaceful Retreat

My husband and teenage son wanted to get away from it all for the weekend and we couldn't have picked a better place to do it. The cabin was perfect. We never missed not having a TV and with all the canopy cover, the heat was not an issue. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished we had arranged a longer visit. Next time! The host was friendly, respectful and so accommodating.

Disappointed cabin experience.

Good location, good structure, not clean, good bit of bugs inside residence which was unexpected due to the price paid for the property. Wouldn’t stay here again.

The front room of the cabin overlooks the woods. The view is stunning. It was beautiful in August. I can only imagine how gorgeous the fall colors must be. We will have to plan another trip.

Pure Quiet Escape

This property is a great little escape from the hustle and bustle of the suburbs/city. Trees surround this property and it is like a stilted tree house. It was in the high 80’s and low 90’s and it was rather cool with windows open and fans running. At night, was even a little chilly (which was surprising) and needed a blanket or two! House had all the amenities needed. Things are a little basic like the shower and could see some updating, but you do get what you pay for with this property. The only downside is that the pool isn’t heated and no lights at night (we rectified this by buying two camping rechargeable lanterns). I know heating can cost a lot to run, but would be happy paying an additional $100-$150 for the trip. Nonetheless, it was a great vacation. We did the battlefield, the Crystal Grotto caves and three days of tubing. First day, we started at the Keedysville (Hitt) bridge and did a little float to the house. Second day, we started at the bridge in Devils Backbone County Park, that tube float was around 6 1/2 hours to the house. Third trip, we dropped in at the house and went down to a nice 4 hour float. Saw a waterfall and floated on to Molly’s Hole at the park. Uber was our friend. We’d be picked up and just driven back to the house. We purchased xl River tubes via Dick’s at $26 each and purchased a pump. Much cheaper than renting through a company. Also, checked out the waterfall at Falling Waters in West Virginia. We bbq’d saw a ton of wildlife, from fish, to katydids, to many varieties of butterflies, saw two baby deer on the path of the property, a groundhog, snake, rabbits, turtle, even a weasel! Kiddos loved the adventure and the house. House was well stocked with tons of herbs and spices, to great cookware and cutlery. Only regret, was not going to Annapolis Rock! Did venture into Sharpsburg and the Blue Moon Cafe! Thanks for a great vacation, Lisa!

We had a great time! We utilized the pool and the trail to the creek and the fire pit. We were able to check in early with easy communication with the owner. The cabin itself was so homey and loved the vibe! It was perfect for our mom/wives getaway!

Great little cabin getaway

Great place in semi-remote area but also just 10 minutes outside of town in case you need anything! Nice walk down to the river, very quiet, and the birds in the morning are peaceful and unique. Great experience and part of our adventure to the area. Thank you!
