Why the Owner Chose Harpers Ferry
We had been camping in the Berkely Springs area for years and decided to upgrade! From the first moment we walked into 850 Shannondale Road and saw the amazing view, it was a done deal. We have spent many happy times here and enjoyed the peace, quiet, beauty of the mountain and hope you will do the same.
The Unique Benefits at this Elegant Cabin
Anybody who visits comments on the world class view, sitting on the deck and enjoying the sunsets is priceless. Walking to the Appalachian trail is a surprise plus.
