About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming Cabin in the Woods with River Access

Escape to your own private cabin nestled on three wooded acres close the Potomac River. Just an hour or so drive from metro DC, let West Virginia's country roads take you to the place you belong.

The cabin is designed to let you unwind and leave your stress behind. You'll be pampered with all the comforts of home while a natural wonderland awaits just outside your door.

Access to our amazing private riverfront is less than 200 yards from the cabin. Enjoy 150 feet of shoreline that's reserved exclusively for you and the guests at our adjoining riverfront property. This picturesque, slow-moving stretch of the Potomac is ideal for fishing, kayaking, or relaxing on an inner tube.

Built in the 1940’s, this vintage cedar-shingled cabin is tucked away on three wooded acres. Beautifully renovated inside and out, you'll appreciate the spacious comfort as well as luxuries like the tiled walk-in shower, rainfall showerhead, and heated floor.

The open-concept main level includes a large, well-equipped kitchen with dining area, spacious living room, and bedroom with a queen bed. The cozy loft features two twin beds.

The kitchen includes microwave, range, toaster & refrigerator. Complete coffee and tea station including whole beans, grinder, Chemex and electric kettle (traditional coffeemaker too).

The cabin also features a cozy west-facing front porch with rocking chairs, and a shady side patio with table/chairs, fire pit and gas grill with side burner. A few pots & pans are available for use with the grill.

INTERNET: Our Wi-Fi internet is fast enough for streaming Netflix, etc. on the Roku TV. There are occasional outages.

It's just a 5-mile drive to quaint and charming Shepherdstown, and 10 miles to fascinating Harpers Ferry. History lovers will appreciate the close proximity to Antietam Battlefield, Harpers Ferry National Park, and many other Civil War sights. Fantastic hiking, river rafting, and biking along the C&O Canal await the adventurer.

Within a 10 mile radius you'll find plenty of options for groceries, shopping, and dining.

CELL SERVICE: In this rural area cell coverage is very limited. We have Wi-Fi internet so you can use your phone with Wi-Fi calling.

Relaxing weekend stay

My family enjoyed our stay at the cabin including having access to the river for morning coffee and playing board games in the evening after a day of tubing. The drive to the cabin was beautiful with lots of deer sightings.

We had a very nice stay, the cabin was very comfortable, it's only a short walk to the river. The owners are very nice and helpful. It has wifi but no cell service, so a good place to relax. I really enjoyed driving on the windy roads, it's a beautiful area.

Great stay!

Loved the cabin. Very convenient to Harpers Ferry and Sheperdstown, both just a short drive away. The cabin was very clean and suited our needs for the short time we were there. Nice little walk down to the Potomac for a great view of the river. We didn't get to use the firepit due to it raining both days we were there. Looking forward to returning sometime in the future.
