About this property

Private Home, Hot Tub, Wifi, Rural Setting, Gas Stove, 70" SmartTV

Down River Inn is a beautiful vacation rental in Harpers Ferry. We have 4 other nearby full vacation rental homes in Harpers Ferry and have been hosting visitors since 2011. Conveniently located in a semi-rural neighborhood setting with large yard, hot tub, fire pit and large field in the back. The home has cable internet and wifi and free off-street parking.
Slope side home in the winter months to Snow Riders which allows for excellent access to the tubing runs. Lights and potentially other guests on the slope may be seen from the home.

Info on the heat and air conditioning:
1 On cool nights, there is a gas stove in the living room for your enjoyment. Please only run the gas stove when you are in the living room. It is warm enough that the regular house central air will not turn on and the rest of the house may get cold if left running.
2 There is a thermostat in the hallway for the main level and upstairs heat and air conditioning. Vents can also be adjusted if it is too hot or cold in the upstairs vs main floor.
3 the basement has 2 thermostats - 1 for a/c on the far wall and one for the baseboard heat on the left wall. Please only turn on one at a time or they will “compete” with each other.
4 there is a thermostat in the basement hall and utility room that we generally left on 60 because it would be really hot in that area if not.
5 if the dehumidifier in the basement says P2, it is full, please empty in the bath tub.

Halfway point visit

I met up with my son & his tramily( AT thru hikers) at the halfway point of the AT. The hot tub was perfect to regenerate their tired bodies after hiking for 70+ days. Great location to the trail & to Harper’s Ferry. Would recommend.

Long Weekend

Property was ready when we arrived just after 4 pm. There was plenty of space for us all to spread out. We enjoyed the hot tub. Kitchen has a super weird layout. When we were all in there, we often bumped into one another. The property is close to several stores and restaurants. We took advantage of the 10% discount off of River Riders and did tubing. We would stay here again!

Harpers Ferry RiverRiders white house

Nice stay in Harpers Ferry. Very good property for group of friends or extended family that all hang together or need lots of sleeping spots. Next door to River Riders and their Superman zip line. House 3br: 2 masters with kings and a room with two sets of bunks. Two Sleeper sofas in LR where the only TV is. Bathrooms are reminiscent of European style, 1970s vintage, with pullchain toilets, brass fittings, and lots of white tile. Tons of cabinetry. Great hot tub. Nice BBQ. Kitchen is functional with Subzero refrigerator, large did not stock with many towels, but found spare towels in powder room

Beautiful house .

We had an awesome stay. My only complaint is that it was our first year wedding anniversary and on the day of we opened the hot tub went upstairs to get food ready and they started mowing the grass. The hot tub got full of grass so did the inside of my car. They were there off and on all day of our anniversary doing yard maintenance. Was kinda a buzz kill.

Perfect long weekend for family of 6 plus our pup, all college-age kids!

Lovely house, spacious and homey. Great back yard with gas grill, would have loved to use the large and luxurious hot tub but the weather was just too hot. Walk right next door for tubing, which was a blast!

Even Better in Person

Honestly the pictures don’t so this place justice! The home is amazing and set up so well for groups or (like in our case), a large family. The place is clean and well stocked and the property managers are responsive and very friendly! The area is gorgeous and private yet convenient. I highly recommend this place... oh, and the hot tub is amazing!!
