Downtown Harpers Ferry

What a find ! Sometimes you are not sure what you are getting based on photos and an owners' description. This was everything and more.We booked for 5 days and were fortunate that the house was available for an additional 2 days. Only a bit more than an hour from DC, an hour from Gettysburg and in the heart of Civil War History...not to mention on the Appalacian Trail and inside the Harpers Ferry Park.The house itself was more than you could ask for. Tons of room (we were 2 couples) ,spotlessly clean and all the amenities...even binoculars to bird watch and a bottle of wine upon arrival. We thought about going to a Washington Capitals hockey game. Not only did the owners help us secure tickets, unbeknownst to us they went to Washington, got the tickets and slipped them under our door.We were kept busy every day and returned to an awesome house in a spectacular historic setting. Don't let the fact that you are over a tavern be a concern. You hear a bit of noise if you listened but if you were on the "bedroom" floor you couldn't hear a thing. Also, the tavern was quite charmining.A number of places to dine within a 2 minute walk. Would highly recommend!!!!
