You can't beat the mountain top view! The house was very nice and clean. Good cell reception and wifi. Amazing fire pit! Helpful and friendly owners. Getting up the mountain is a little rough, so a truck, Jeep, or SUV is ideal. But it's worth it!! No more than 20 or 30 minutes to every attraction, restaurant, or store. I would live here permanently if I could.

We had the best view ever! The home was clean and we were able to have a fire one night which was great. I will say a vechicle that sits up off the ground is preferred due to the condition of the mountain road, we had an SUV and were glad because of the road condition. It was WONDERFUL!

OMG, the view.

The house was spacious and well maintained. My son and I stayed for three nights. There was easily room to accommodate six or more. We had two days of rain, but it didn’t slow us down. We toured Harpers Ferry and did some hiking on the AT. Host provided everything you’d expect. Kitchen utensils, BBQ grill, blankets/bedding, TV, wi-fi, and ALL CLEAN and ready to use. There is a reason the view is in this property’s title. Mountain Top View is way up there.

Nice stay

The house was quiet and comfortable. The view was amazing. But I will say the road getting up to the house is no joke. Definitely would want an SUV or bigger. I would worry about a car dragging. Pretty steep lots of ruts. The owner was very nice. The house was stocked with plenty of toilet paper and paper towels, and trash bags. There was also a few other things that you can tell he wants to say to be comfortable. I would go back for sure.

I struggle with writing this review. We didn't spend more than five minutes in the house before deciding we were uncomfortable in this neighborhood and declined to stay there. The listing was accurate as for the cottage description, mountain view, and rutted roads (ok, the roads were perhaps worse than described but not impassable). For two female friends on a girl's weekend getaway, the drive through the community was uncomfortable from the perspective of surrounding properties. As previous reviews stated, we passed multiple broken down trailers and homes, many with doors, windows, or walls missing, exteriors littered with discarded items. Despite the owner's assurance that he had never had problems with the neighbors, our gut feeling of discomfort and fear drove our decision to leave for a hotel. While some would love the location and proximity to the AT, others might find, as we did, that the surrounding community was far outside their comfort zone.

Very nice property, older and a little quirky, but clean and very well equipped. The kitchen had everything needed to cook full meals. We only used one bed but it was very comfortable. There is no ice maker which wasn't a problem for the two of us, but a larger group that uses a lot of ice might want to pick up a bag on the way in. Also, the directions to the coffee pot are in the red binder. The roads to the property were a little hairy, but we followed the directions that the property manager provided and had no problems. Although I would recommend a truck/SUV, we saw several locals with sedans and the Amazon delivery van several times so not as bad as you would think. My only real recommendation would be to invest is some high deck chairs that you can see over the railing. Also, it is not really handicapped accessible, because of a couple of steps in the house and outside, but it if you have minor mobility issues it is easy to navigate. We had a great time and would stay again.

Beautiful view

My friends and I always go away for New Years. We try someplace new every year. This lovely mountain top home did not disappoint. It was spacious, clean and equipped. It was very cold (because it was January). Did some snow tubing close by. The drive up and down the mountain was a little nerve sketchy, but took it slow as I was not driving a SUV and it was fine. It was very quiet. We had an enjoyable time.
