Beautifully decorated home!

We loved the home’s decor. Well supplied with basics, plus complimentary snacks and a bottle of wine! Would have appreciated the heat being turned on before our arrival on what was a freezing cold day. Hosts very responsive whenever we reached out. If you don’t love very firm, very thick bed pillows, suggest you bring your own. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Wilt House.

Wonderful stay at The Wilton House

My husband and our two boys (7 yrs and 2 yrs old) stayed at The Wilton House as we were in town for a family reunion. The house was beautiful, clean and comfortable. I loved the front porch swing. The host was very responsive and welcoming. The location was also convenient to the venues our family used for the various planned activities for the weekend. I would stayed here again when coming back to visit.

Convenient to visit Harper's Ferry and Antietam Battlefield. Nice quiet seating areas on front porch and in the back under canopy. Inside living areas are comfortable and as shown in photos. Challenging to reach cabinets above stove, microwave and towel bar in bathroom for shorter adults. Not much storage available for food brought to cook meals. All in all a great place to stay for a few days while visiting sites in the area.

Wonderful home

The home is beautiful! The owners did an amazing job to make us feel welcomed and at home. They provided us we unexpected amenities like coffee creamer, bottle water and even a bottle of wine.

Great Place for Son’s Wedding Night

Close to everything in case of inclement weather. My son and his new bride stayed here so there wouldn’t be any issues getting where they needed to be during their wedding weekend. Chose the Wilt house because of the reviews. Cleaner than any of the local “high end” hotels/resorts.

This place was the perfect little cottage for our girls weekend away from the kids! Was close to Harpers Ferry to go hiking and enjoy the cute little town. We also really enjoyed putting the wood puzzles together each evening!

Great little place

This place looked just as it did in the pictures. Everything described online was exactly the way it was. We stayed for 3 nights. It was a perfect little place for a get away for our family of 4. We would definitely stay here again. So close to everything. The only thing i may suggest is just another sauce pan for the kitchen and maybe some dishclothes. Other then thwn it was perfect. We will stay here again if we ever go back to West Virginia .

Our Stay at the Wilt House

We were in town for a wedding and stayed at the Wilt House. Travelling couldn't have been simpler. The process went smoothly and the house was lovely. It was clean, comfortable and the hosts thought of everything, even down to toiletries, in case the guests forget something. It was a great experience and if I'm ever in the area again, I would definitely book the Wilt House.
