Property was great and clean with all the amenities you would need for a perfect stay. The trains across the street were busier than expected Friday night so not ideal for light sleepers but overall had a wonderful time!

The hosts are great, the place is great, can’t go wrong. Everything clean, comfortable and has a feel good vibe. Great for rail fanning and train buffs. The cozy den is a perfect place to curl up and watch a movie without disturbing anyone who is sleeping. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook your favorites. We hope to be back for another visit!! Just a 15-20 minute ride to Harper’s Ferry and Shepherdstown.

This was a great location for us to explore Harper's Ferry for a couple of days! We loved the historic feel of the house and it had everything we needed. Tracey was helpful and responsive. The trains were only an issue for the light sleeper, but we appreciated the sound machine.

Great host and beautiful property. The only downside is closeness to railway tracks. A problem only if you’re a light sleeper. Otherwise great value for the price.

The location was excellent- very pricimate to downtown Harper's Ferry, Harper's Ferry brewing, and other attractions. The train goes by many times a day but is never bothersome. Tracey was extremely communicative and responsive.

We loved this property! Quirky and cute and the location was great. We spent part of the day exploring vineyards in Virginia and the evening in Harper’s Ferry - everything was easily accessible from the property. The hosts were incredibly nice and responsive. We will definitely return for another weekend getaway in the future!

What a lovely place! The exterior was well maintained and the tastefully decorated interior was neat, clean, and well stocked. All the amenities you’d need were provided (linen, pots/pans, plates/cups/glasses, etc).This is an older home but with modern conveniences. The bedrooms are located upstairs. The large primary bedroom - with a king size bed - has a very comfortable vibe to it. The smaller room is cozy with twin beds in it. The sitting room (complete with musical instruments) has a large sectional sofa which is nice for engaging in conversation. There’s a balcony with rockers where one can sit and enjoy the scenery.The 2-story home is situated by a working train track. Yes, trains pass by somewhat regularly but the property has good insulation. I found the sound of a passing trains to be more nostalgic than bothersome.While the winding roads may not lend themselves to jogging or bike riding there is a walking path between the property and the river. Harpers Ferry is a stone’s throw away also great for walking, jogging, etc. by the riverside. Charles Town has all your fast food favorites and restaurants however, I would recommend trying the locally owned eateries and watering holes in Harpers Ferry.The property host is very responsive to any questions/concerns you may have. Her demeanor was always professional and friendly. Thank you, Tracy, for making this a wonderful stay!I would definitely stay here again.

We had an absolutely lovely time at the Knoxville historic stone house. The house was clean and had all the comforts of home. My husband especially loved having access to the instruments in the entertainment room. The host was exceptional and responsive. We would absolutely stay again next time we are in the area.

Great house near Harper’s Ferry

Nice home close to Harper’s Ferry. Well decorated with antiques and instruments. It is across from the railroad track, so lots of loud freight trains, but as a train lover I loved it.

Great location and nice space for our girls’ crafting weekend! Fully stocked w everything you need, just bring a suitcase and a blow dryer.

Perfect short weekend getaway

This place is perfect for a couple. Bedroom is also good if you have kids. Perfect place to stay if you visiting Harper’s Ferry and 5 minutes from the Brewery. You could see the house from the hill if the trees weren’t in the way. 18 minutes from Charles Town. Very Cozy 1800 feeling place.

Great spot, tons of character!

The house was just the right size for our family, including two little ones. We really appreciated that there were guards to put on the side of the beds so that our little ones did not roll out.The location was great for everything we needed to do nearby, and the kids got a kick out of seeing the train go right past the front door. The music room was a hit as well!

Great location with amazing historical touches!

Our family of 4 (including teen children) had a great experience. The home is just as pictured with all of the vintage touches to make an immersive visit to Harper’s Ferry and the surrounding area. The host offered us great suggestions for dining in nearby towns which was a wonderful compliment to our time in Harper’s Ferry. Communication was terrific and check in was smooth. I would definitely recommend this home to others traveling to the area.

We rented this home for a long Thanksgiving weekend weekend with our son and family. We were able to prepare Thanksgiving dinner and several other meals in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoyed them all at the lovely dining room table. Our grandson is a "rail fan", so the two front porches were the perfect location to watch freight and passenger trains go by several times a day. The drum set in the living room was an unexpected treat. We also enjoyed excursions to nearby Harpers Ferry.

Host was incredibly responsive and allowed an early check in. Fun and interesting decor throughout, updated home with most things you could need (I didn't see a hair dryer, but imagine the host would have brought it if I had asked) and some things that were a great surprise like the drum set which my 2 and 10year old enjoyed. Great location for us close to Harpers Ferry and my kids enjoyed the trains passing by. New Mexican restaurant close by is pretty good as well. Would stay again. Where original, floors could use some patching in some places where you worry that they may give out.

Spotless and roomy for 3 adults. The owner thought of our every need. A sunset libation on the front porch made the day perfect. The decorations for Halloween made us feel in season. Dinning table was gigantic. Beds were very comfortable. Thanks for a great stay,
