What can I say—we love staying at this house and cannot wait to come back. This was our third stay and I believe I said this in my last review with our last stay-but we are so sad when we have to leave. The house is wonderful – it has a great design where everyone can spread out, it has everything you need, it’s very comfortable, very clean, and it’s thoughtfully decorated. The views out of all three floors of the front of the house are incredible. If you like hiking or beautiful walks along the river – you can just head right across the street and down the towpath, across the railroad tracks right to the Appalachian Trail. It’s a lovely walk into Harpers Ferry. There are great places to eat nearby-we usually get pizza from the Pizza and Wing Shack in Brunswick. We also go to The Rabbit Hole and The Coach House. There is a fantastic New Mexican restaurant around the corner from the house and a brewery across the river. This house and the surrounding area are one of our favorite places to visit. Also, communication with the host (Michael) is top notch-he is very responsive and invested in providing a great trip and experience!

Property was awesome, exactly as how it’s described. Kitchen is fully stacked such that I was able to make desserts for my daughter’s wedding. Had groceries delivered and made breakfast instead of going out. Multiple bathrooms made it easier to get everyone ready at the same time. Michael was VERY responsive and helpful with all my questions. He suggested places to go, etc. but unfortunately we did not have the time. Wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you Michael!

Perfect in every way.

We were nine women ranging in age from 79 to 81. We loved the house. We could be spread out when we slept and gather in two large spaces on the second and third floors. Most important to us was the attitude and friendliness of the host. Thank you for perfectly perfect time.

The property is beautiful. A great view of the river, multiple porches, and lots of space. A perfect get away with lots of fun things to do close by. Also great just to hang out. Felt like home, would recommend to anyone. Michael was very communicative and answered all my questions very quickly, and even recommended fun things to do in the area.

Beautiful Property & Very Responsive Host!

The house was a perfect size for my group of 10. We stayed for my birthday weekend and the house was very stocked with cleaning supplies, sheets, pillows, towels, etc. Michael was very responsive and even sent a huge list of recommendations in the area. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely be staying here!!!

Beautiful and Convenient

The house was amazing, great views and a great layout that allowed for us to hang as a group or have some privacy. Very convenient to everything we wanted to do; Harper’s Ferry, Ziplining (or rafting based on time of year), and the Brewery that we went to on the last night felt like it was almost walking distance. Definitely recommend and would stay again in a heartbeat.

The location was awesome, the views from the balcony were awesome and the house was very close to Harper’s Ferry and a local brewery. The house was very clean and had a well kept interior with plenty of extra towels and sheets for all of us (group of 8 people). The host was also superb, giving lots of good local recommendations.

Wonderful Host and Home

From first reserving this wonderful home to our last day leaving the host was responsive, warm and helpful. The house was everything stated in the advertisement and more. Wonderful location with 3 decks overlooking the Potomac with enough rooms to allow all of our group of 4 couples their own space. The main floor with kitchen and dining area is a great gathering place for mingling and preparing/eating meals together. Our family gets together once a year and this was by far our favorite home and host. Harpers Ferry holds much to do and see!

REPEAT STAY

This was our second time staying at Mike's house overlooking the Potomac River. The layout of the house is perfect for our family of ten. We love the view of the river, tubing, fishing, exploring Harpers Ferry and the C&O Canal. Being able to walk to Harpers Ferry, avoiding traffic and parking hassles is a HUGE bonus. Thanks Mike for everything, Lord willing we will be back next year!

Perfect stay

This was hands-down our favorite VRBO/vacation home that we’ve stayed in. Between the views, the decks, cleanliness, comfortability, and the fact that it was completely stocked with everything we needed, it was perfect! We got married 20 minutes from the house and had our whole bridal party stay there with us. There was enough bedrooms, bathrooms, and just space in general for everyone to feel comfortable. We will be back!
