Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Sharpsburg, Maryland

Relaxing Atmosphere: This is an excellent place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. You will enjoy a view of the Potomac River and the C&O Canal Towpath from the deck. The hot tub is on the deck and is a truly awesome place to sit and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings. It is really quiet and dark at night.

Great Location: We are located at mile marker 71 on the C&O Canal Tow Path. The Potomac River is practically in the front yard. The public boat ramp is a few yards away. The Antietam Battlefield is within 4 miles of the house. Snyders Landing Road is a dead end, very little traffic. We are 5 minutes from Shepardstown West Virginia. Shephardstown is a quaint little town with speciality shops and restaurants on the campus of Shephardstown College.

Enjoyed Our Stay

Abbey & Sophie North Carolina
Review Submitted: July 2, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this vacation property. It is located in a very private and quiet area about 1 1/2 miles from the town of Sharpsburg. If you're a history buff, love to fish, canoe, or just simply relax, then this is the place for you. The owners have the home adequately furnished with everything you need. The only negative we found, was that we ran out of water on day 4.

Great Week-End Get Away!

Review Submitted: June 12, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We had a wonderful stay at this quite cottage in the country! Everything was just as we anticipated, the only surprise was just how really beautiful and serene the cottage setting was. We enjoyed the many close by activities and relaxing on the deck. The owners were very customer service orientated both before and after our stay. We would definitely return to this cottage and recommend it for a great vacation destination.

Beautiful Property and Comfortable Home

llynda Washington DC
Review Submitted: April 27, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We made our first visit to Western MD and this beautiful home and it won't be our last. The cottage is located on a quiet street, nestled in the woodland. The home is close to all cival war sites and the towpath is basically in the front yard. The hosts are very friendly and maintain a clean and beautiful property.

Be careful when booking this property !

viptap Iowa
Review Submitted: January 29, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
Beautiful property but no washing machine or dryer that is hooked up. Also we ran out of water to take a shower so we had to leave early because the owner would not call us back. We have left messages on their cell phones and e-mail and no response. I would say to use paypal when Home Away encourages one to do so you do not get taken. When we arrived the home was also no ready.
Owner's Response: We feel this is a unfair review. We do not offer a washer and dryer at this time in our ad and we did return her calls. They arrived early and we were making the beds, the house was ready otherwise. The water was distrupted due to a leak that has been repaired.
