About this property

In-town Harpers Ferry house with pool/hot tub in your own private wooded oasis

Bordering state forest, this beautiful in-town four bedroom home with inground pool and hot tub is perfect for a relaxing family and friends getaway. We're just minutes to boutiques, restaurants, museums, historic sites, rafting, ziplining, breweries, wineries, the casino and much more. Take a 10 minute stroll to four restaurants from our home: The Anvil, the Country Cafe, Kelly Farm Kitchen, Bolivar Bread Bakery and Snallygasters Cafe and Wine Bar. Walk, ride, hike, bike or run to the National Park, historic lower town Harpers Ferry, the Appalachian Trail, the C&O canal, Potomac and Shenandoah rivers or just relax in your private backyard oasis with amazing in-ground pool and brand new hot tub.

Just down the road from Harpers Ferry, explore Northern Virginia’s wine region, the historic towns of Charles Town and Shepherdstown in West Virginia, and the Antietam and Monocacy national battlefields in Maryland.

This lovely and spacious home has a wonderful, crisp, clean look throughout and comfortably accommodates 8 to 10 people (can accommodate 12). The house boasts three living spaces - an elegant living room with electric fireplace, family room with large screen tv and upstairs sitting room also with wall-mounted tv. On the first floor is an open, airy eat-in kitchen next to the dining/family room. Kitchen has seating for 8, dining room can accommodate up to 10. Kitchen and dining room open to a generous covered back porch (10 feet wide) with farm table seating for 12 and swinging bench perfect for afternoon naps.

Bedrooms on the second floor include a master with queen bed and ensuite bath as well as three more bedrooms which share a bathroom – one with two twin beds, one with a full bed and one with full and twin bunks and a trundle bed. The downstairs family room has a sectional with queen pull-out bed. The upstairs sitting room opens onto a large upper porch with a view of the pool area and woods. The large inground pool has a depth of 3 feet at the shallow end and 6 feet at the deep end. The pool area has seating for 12 and includes a gas grill. Through the pool gate, you will find horseshoes, badminton and a fire pit for chilly evenings. The pool is open Memorial Day and closed mid September. It is not heated. The hot tub is open from September through May.

The house is in a quiet residential neighborhood so we are mindful of our neighbors in terms of noise generally. We also ask for quiet hours beginning at 9 PM on weeknights and 10 PM on weekends and holidays since our neighbors wake early for work. We are really focused on hosting families and not large adult groups.

Come and enjoy the stunning scenery and explore the region’s history from this delightful, bright and airy Harpers Ferry home.

Nurses annual get together

This was the nicest place we have stayed since we started getting together years ago. We all were in nursing school together and have remained friends. We celebrated our 80 th birthdays this year. This place was just perfect. The owners thought of everything and it is just as it was described.

Our favorite place to visit

We’ve been staying here about once a year for over three years now and it’s just a very tranquil beautiful home. We relax, fellowship, and always enjoy the pool. Hopefully, when we visit again possibly later in the year we can use the hot tube

Great Summer Getaway

Check in was easy. House was very clean. Quiet neighborhood, outdoor dining table was great, and everyone loved the pool. Kitchen was well-stocked with everything needed to make delicious meals. Plenty of indoor space that allowed family members quiet time to relax. We had a great time and are definitely interested in staying here again.

Amazing extended weekend in Harpers Ferry

This house served as the cornerstone of an amazing weekend getaway for our family (2 kids) and another family (2 kids)-- with plenty of room to spare. It was impeccably decorated, clean, and so inviting. The hosts were communicative and wonderfully accommodating. Its location is perfect-- only a mile from "Snow Riders" snow tubing, which we visited and had a blast. This house is by far one of the best vacation rentals we've stayed at and we're already talking about coming back in the Summer to take advantage of that pool!

Awesome place in the woods

Great house with amazing porches. Relaxing on swing and in pool was awesome way to start and end the day. Close to downtown and Harpers Ferry National Park entrance. Walking distance to fun restaurants, the Barn and the Bolivar Bread Bakery. Trails to downtown right out front door.

Christmas in WV

We had a wonderful Christmas family trip and this home was perfect for our large family. The floor plan is great for a large group due to the 3 living spaces. Kitchen was adequately equipped. Very clean and well managed. I hope we can come back again in the summer and enjoy the pool.

Lovely and comfortable house full of amenities!

We had a great time exploring Harper’s Ferry and nearby parks on a blustery March weekend. The hot tub was a big hit! The house was quiet, well appointed, clean and felt very roomy for our party of 9. We are hoping to return in the summer to enjoy the amazing outdoor eating area and fire pit! The owners were so flexible with us and highly communicative- we couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

We just had the best weekend in Harpers Ferry largely in part due to this property and everything it entailed!! The house is fantastic for a large group, wonderful common areas and tons of privacy. Everything was comfortable and spacious. Tons of games/activities/trails right on property. The welcome book helped us navigate our weekend easily!

This is our second stay and it won’t be the last. We absolutely love this property as it has just about everything you need when vacationing home away from home. Hopefully next time we’re there the pool lights will be working so we can continue to enjoy the pool at night. There is also a jacuzzi that we’d like to enjoy later as well. We’ll definitely be back.

Fantastic family gathering space!

This house is stocked with everything you may need! Very clean and comfortable. We had plenty of space to gather and visit with family. Spacious kitchen stocked with all the essentials and then some! Very large tables so large groups can eat all together. Everyone enjoyed the comfortable living spaces for coffee in the mornings before going out for activities. The outdoor areas are set up wonderfully. The pool area is comfortable enough for many people to sit and chat with the people hanging out in the pool as well! Joanne was quick to respond when we had an issue and needed to ask a question. We enjoyed our stay very very much!

Perfect for us!

This house was perfect for my entire family. The spatial layout of the house provided several different areas for my group of 10 to comfortably gather together or individually. The outdoor space around the pool accommodated all of our needs. The setup was exactly what we wanted and needed to enjoy our time in Harper's Ferry. If you appreciate beautiful details and creative interior design in your physical environment, this is the place!

Perfect getaway

Our weekend away with family and our kids was perfect. The house had plenty of entertainment and space for the kids as well as for the adults. The kitchen was well stocked with all cooking supplies and wasn’t missing anything. I appreciated that towels for bath and pool were provided to make one less thing to pack. The bedding and pillows were plentiful. I also appreciated that there weren’t a ton of clean up tasks required by the landlord before we left (unlike some other properties we’ve stayed in) making leaving easier and giving me more confidence in the cleanliness since the cleaning before we got there was professionally done and not just by the last tenant. We’ll definitely be back again!
