Why the Owner Chose Shepherdstown
As a new retiree, I love to travel. I have travelled with and without the grandkids for many years, always staying in vacation rentals. So I decided to share my pet/child-friendly home with other vacationers, and now I travel even more!

The newly redecorated Cottage offers all the amenities of home, plush bathrobes, quality linens, plenty of towels, and much more, all within walking distance of the quaint town of Shepherdstown and Shepherd University.
