We had such an amazing time! Great location close to many amenities. We loved the owners recommendations for food and fun things to do. We loved hiking the Maryland heights trail and exploring Harperâs ferry. It was our 10 year wedding anniversary and we love the outdoors and history. We canât wait to come back!
We were very Pleased. Very clean. Furnished more than we expected. Friends &family came to visit they loved it. Said they would book it for a few day get away. Very happy with our stay
The cottage was very nice and clean. Our plan was to fish since it was advertised as private river access. When I see private river access, I think a dock or at least bank access. We soon found out that the only access was the boat launch. We had 2 teenagers with us who were looking forward to fishing, but there really wasn't much room to fish at the boat launch. The owner did some research and let us know some places near by we could fish, which was very nice. It was just disappointing to find out we couldn't fish from the property we rented. It was very close to Harpers Ferry National Park which was convenient. Overall, we made the best of it. The house had what we needed and the gas grill was utilized daily, which was great. The owners were easy to communicate with. The beds were also comfortable. If you are looking for a place to stay near Harpers Ferry and all it has to offer, then I recommend this cottage. It just wasn't an ideal fishing location.
Property has limited views of the Potomac. The house itself was in good condition and the host paid a lot t of attention to small details. The property itself is about a 15 minute drive to historic Harper's Ferry and Shepherdstown. Guests should be aware that parking for large vehicles can be a challenge but is doable. This is due to the design of the driveway and vehicles parked on neighboring properties, which is beyond the host's control.The only complaint we had were the beds. They were some of the most uncomfortable we have every slept in.
We loved this Cottage and location with beautiful views of the River and deer visiting daily!!! The owner Scott was always available with quick responses to my questions!!!
The house was perfect for 4 of us for two nights! It was close by to the national parks. The house was very clean, had lots of towels and the view of the river was very pretty. It was further from the river than we originally thought but that did not impact our stay. The host responded immediately when we requested to build a campfire. He put chairs out for us and set it up by the river.
We had an awesome stay for our family vacation. Easy distance to everything Harperâs Ferry. It very cozy and clean. Our toddlers had fun playing with their toys in the spacious living room. We had coffee on the deck watching the sun rise. Everything inside very organized and lots of information about the surrounding areas. Kids liked playing on the little playground and kayaking on the river. Overall a very good stay. Highly recommend.
The property was a home away from home for my family. plenty of room for four adults a full kitchen in the lower section and two full bathrooms. Clean and neat interior, great view from the deck and great parking as well. A great place to stay close to Harper's Ferry.
We spent 2 days at Harper's Ferry. 1 day in Shepherds town and 1 day at Antietam and visited a toy train museum. All was within 20 miles so we were centrally located. The most humbling of these were the Battle at Antietam. We learned so much. The house was very clean had everything we needed. Highly recommend
Perfect opportunity to relax and enjoy the river view from the deck. The cottage was spacious and well appointed . We spent time learning about the history of Harpers Ferry and hiking in the region. Our adult son came in from Baltimore for one day visit.
The Riverside Cottage was a lovely little place on the river. Great reviews from the back deck. The place was very tidy and had just what we needed for a change of pace. Very easy drive into Shepherdstown. The hosts provided a nice binder of information and recommendations and made everything very easy. They responded right away when we inquired about a cooking sheet to use in the oven.
I booked the cottage for my parents. Scott was excellent to work with. Communication was great and also had great recommendations. The cottage was in a good potato with a short drive to multiple attractions/ shopping.
We had great time fishing, canoeing and sightseeing. We visited Charles Town and went on the night time Ghost Tour. This area is loaded with Civil war history.The fish were hiding but the weather was perfect.Scott was a great host.
1st time visiting the East Coast and our stay in this beautiful, quaint home was perfect! We felt the warm welcome as soon as we walked in and enjoyed the thoughtful complimentary items. The house was close to Harperâs Ferry & neighboring cities, lots to do in close proximity. Enjoyed the porch on our last night as we sat and listened to the rain and the sound of the river. Host was very attentive & prompt. Definitely recommend as a place to stay for a small family!
The property was exactly as presented, charming, well-situated and very clean. As a believer in details making a difference, I was impressed by the thoughtfulness of the owners. I only wish we had had more time to truly enjoy all 22 Briar Patch Lane had to offer. The lovely Potomac beckoned, but it was too chilly to spend an evening beside the river. I hope another time.
We enjoyed a very comfortable stay. House was very clean and cozy. We were a little surprised by the close proximity to other homes, but other than that it was as described. Hosts were easy to communicate with and created a very welcoming space for us. Thank you!
The place is so beautiful and so peaceful the views to the river are amazing. We are planing to visit again. We had an excellent time with my friends. Thank you again Scott and Margie.
