Summary: We had an awesome stay for our family vacation. Easy distance to everything Harper’s 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.

Summary: 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

Summary: 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.

Summary: 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 Harper’s 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!
