Rustic charm meets luxury. We stayed here the night before a ride on the Potomac Eagle Scenic Train and it was perfect. The architecture is very charming and the tasteful updates, specifically the expansive bathroom, really added a sense of luxury to the experience. The place was incredibly clean and welcoming. If we ever find ourselves looking for a place to stay near Romney again, we will definitely be back!

Very nice place off the beaten path. My wife and I enjoyed a peaceful evening. Coming from a farm background myself, I enjoyed the drive through the country and staying in a farmhouse. We both enjoyed the hot tub as well. Old farm house with modern face lift.

Very well appointed, with details like beer glasses in the freezer, hair ties in the bathroom, and extra towels for the hot tub. The hosts were responsive to questions. The water was a bit soft, and the wifi relied on a local cell tower that dropped the signal at times (would recommend bringing Starlink if you have it). But we enjoyed our stay and would definitely visit again.

Absolutely gorgeous property ! The home was very clean , beautifully decorated, and was equipped with anything you might need. Easy for my 95 year old dad to get in and move about . The surrounding property on the farm was idyllic and quiet. We enjoyed the views , the fireplace , and front porch swing. Absolutely loved staying here.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was very clean and had absolutely beautiful views of the mountains, surrounding farmland, cows, and birds—so peaceful and relaxing. The home had everything you could possibly need. A very thoughtful and special touch was the Christmas tree waiting for us when we arrived. The hot tub was fantastic, and the location was perfect—only about 15 minutes from Potomac Eagle. Kelly was very informative and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
