  • Lovely historical cabin

    5/5

    This place was perfect for us. Secluded and quiet area, great history, and great amenities. It’s definitely a historic cabin and may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who are taller than around 5’9”, or those with physical handicaps. For us it was perfect. The managers were great and communicated with us any time we asked questions. Highly recommend.

  • Rustic and unique

    3/5

    Host was very friendly and accommodating. House was stocked with everything you'd need and is rustic and cool. That said it was a little dirty for my family. Beware low ceilings. If you're taller than 5'8" you'll be ducking a lot, probably hitting your head too.

    Manager's Response:

    Hi Scott, We were happy you found our home comfortable and well-stocked.

    We take great care in making sure the home is clean and 100% guest-ready for all our guests. We also have verbiage in the listing mentioning the low ceilings so that our taller guests know what to expect.

    We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

  • Cute cabin

    4/5

    We had a fun stay in this cabin but there are a few things that I wish I had realized before I went. First is that if anyone in your group is over 5ft 8" they will be hitting their heads on the ceiling. The second is that the two bedrooms are connected and that you need to go through the main bedroom to get to the bathroom if you need to pee in the middle of the night.There were a lot of plus sides with this cabin though. The man who lives in the connected area is very sweet and helpful. If you have any issues he is more than happy to provide answers or questions.The location is beautiful! We went during fall so the colors of the leaves were fabulous. There are also a ton of things around if you are interested in hiking or historic events.

    It was perfect. Near my son’s school at Shepherd University and close to all the historic sites of Harper’s Ferry and Antietam.
