The C&O bike adventure that got flooded out.

Despite the flooded C&O canal, my visit w 4 other biking friends allowed us to see Shepardstown rather than the C&O canal bike paths. What a great town to visit. And it e VRBO was the PERFECT location and size! It was my 1st time to use VRBO and our hostess Amy was so helpful before we arrived. Love this property!

Good option for exploring the charming town

We enjoyed being in town and an easy walk to shops and restaurants. The house is very large and can accommodate a good size group. Amy is a friendly and helpful host. We found the house to have a bit of an awkward layout and rather dark except for the front bedroom and living area. Our sense is that the kitchen and bathrooms could use updating

Great location to visit Shepherdstown

We came back to Shepherdstown to dine and visit the record store. Everything we wanted to do was within a five minute walk. The Press Room across the street is a little gem of a restaurant. The Thai place next door was a delightful surprise. The shrimp pad thai was top notch! The house was well appointed and comfortable. When not out roaming, we were able to relax and recharge.

The best!

This is one of the best places I’ve ever stayed. Nice, clean home with comfortable beds. Kitchen is stocked, if you want to cook, but I suggest eating at ALL the restaurants on German Street. Amy, the hostess, is a very nice woman and she’s easy to work with. She really goes above and beyond for her guests. For our stay, she contacted me to see when we would arrive. She gave us an earlier check in time. She has this place stocked. If we needed paper towels or toilet paper, she has it. She has extra light bulbs. She has laundry detergent, cleaners, soaps, shampoo and conditioner. I was shocked and thankful. She’s so thoughtful, she has earplugs on the nightstand. Amy and her husband are the BEST hosts a traveler could ask for. Definitely recommend. 5 stars. 10/10. We would/will stay here again.

Perfect location for attending the Contemporary American Theater Festival (CATF) - close to restaurants, the Farmer's Market, wonderful Shepardstown shops and an easy walk or drive to the theaters. The house was spacious and easily accomodated our crew. We enjoyed eating and playing board games in the spacious kitchen and relaxing in the living room.

My third stay at this property. We like it because the variety of bed sizes and sleeping areas. Also where it’s proximity to Shepherdstown. Couldn’t be more convenient. The house it really is set up for relaxing and just chilling. Lots of indoor seating set up for long pleasant conversations, and outdoor seating also. The host is wonderful and incredibly skilled at communicating exactly what is needed. Checking out here is a breeze. I’ve never experienced and ease of checking out like at this very nice property.
