Overall Perfect
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. Overall a 10/10

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!

Wonderful house
We really enjoyed our stay- despite a rainy weekend we were able to make the most of being mostly indoors. The house was clean and spacious, plenty of room for all of us. Quite a bit of lady bugs and stink bugs, but thankfully Michael gave me a heads up and there was a vacuum provided to get rid if of them. The kitchen was well stocked and there is a grocery store nearby. Michael was very helpful and flexible as well. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much!

Family Visit in MD
We had a wonderful family visit in Maryland. Some of our family stayed in the rental home and others live nearby. The house is able to accommodate a large number of people provided you have no more than 4 vehicles - this worked for us. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was adequately stocked. The view of the Potomac River from the 3 balconies was icing on the cake. The photos cannot begin to do this justice. Our host was extremely helpful with a long list of activities available in the area. There was a real Christmas tree set up and decorated upon our arrival - what a pleasant surprise! We did some local hikes on the Appalachian Trail and spent a day in DC, traveling in via the Metro. The C&O Trail is just down the hill from the house - very convenient. Also visited nearby historic Harper’s Ferry and some wineries in the area. There is a little bit of a bug problem - stink bugs and lady bugs in the house - but this was a minor issue for us. We would highly recommend this home to anyone with a large group visiting this area.

Wonderful House, well equipped and located!
Will first say this house is a great find! Seven ladies gathering for a reunion, and we enjoyed our stay! Location is central (but road work made HF a 40 min detour). Clean, wonderful decor, bright, comfortable, thoughtful extra helpful touches (paper products, soap, wraps), and views of the Potomac river looking across to VA. The owner was very accessible and communicative. We REALLY appreciated not having a long checkout list. A great VRBO!! So as to help others, these are things we didn’t know: a 3-story house, three flights of stairs. Entry level: 2 bedrooms (2 twins and a queen) ONLY 1 bath (which 3 ppl shared); LEVEL 2: living room with nice seating, large dining, kitchen, one queen Bedroom/bath (2 ppl shared), a 1/2 bath; LEVEL 3: 2 queen bedrooms, 2 baths (only 2 ppl on this level), and a large sitting area (brighter lighting than level 2). Several have mobility issues; the stair railings were good, but understand you’re at least going up and down once a day to the main level. Level 3 was so spacious we wondered why there weren’t 2 beds in the huge bedroom so the bathroom use could be better distributed. Not meant as a complaint but observing how this space on three levels could be set up to evenly distribute larger groups. Lastly as has been pointed out, the driveway is challenging to back down to the road, four cars wedged in but more would’ve been hard. Have someone on the road to stop traffic (that tends to race around a blind corner).

Great place for family
We were looking for a place that could accommodate our family of 10 people ranging in age from 7-65 and had lots of things to do. This place did not disappoint.The 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathrooms as well as two living rooms and three decks gave us all plenty of room to spread out. The home was clean and well appointed and Mike was very responsive to our requests. We chose this house for its proximity to Civil War battlefields and history and the River. The kids had a great time splashing around in the Potomac, and the older ones got a good taste of the history of the area. Different groups of us enjoyed Crystal Grottoes Caverns, Gettysburg, the town of Frederick, and Antietam as well as Harper’s Ferry. We couldn’t have asked for a better place!

Amazing!!!
This beautiful 3 story home provided wonderful views of the Potomac. The kitchen had everything we needed and all we had to provide was the food. Well stocked extras in the kitchen. Home was extremely clean upon check in and the owner was very easy to get ahold of when we had a minor issue. Beds were very comfortable!!! Plenty of space to gather together or enjoy the quiet for our family of 9. Very accessible to Harpers Ferry. Loved our time here!!!!!

Tubing Down the River
Our extended family rented this house in June of 2023. We absolutely loved the location, the view of the river from each of the balconies is breathtaking. The property provided privacy, ample parking for three families and was convenient to the Harper’s Ferry area, close enough to go tubing before lunch and again after lunch. The number of bedrooms/bathrooms and bed configuration was perfect for our group. The beds were comfortable and the house provided private space as well as communal space, allowing people to spread out. I especially liked the large dining table that allowed us to eat dinner as a family. The house was clean and provided everything that we needed. Michael responded to each of my questions in a timely fashion and provided lots of tourist information. Our only disappointment was that we could not access Harper’s Ferry from Sandy Hook Road, as the road was closed to pedestrians and vehicular traffic. Of course, it was out of Michael's hands. Bottom line – It was a great vacation and I would absolutely rent this property again.
