The outdoor deck overlooks the broad meadow and mountain range, making it a peaceful place for morning coffee, birdwatching, or quiet sunset dinners with sweeping views. Morning light filters across the grass, the river glimmers through the trees, and the valley begins its peaceful daily rhythm. In the evenings, follow the soft glow down to the firepit near the river, where the mountains fade into dusky blues. Settle into an Adirondack chair as stars appear over the meadows — bright, clear, and endless. This is a place where kids chase fireflies, couples stroll by the river at sunset, fishermen wade into the clear shallows in search of smallmouth bass, and families reconnect in the quiet beauty of the Shenandoah.

Here you can: Relax in hammocks as the river drifts by Share meals under the covered pavilion Wade into clear, shallow water Launch kayaks & tubes directly from the shoreline Gather around the riverside firepit at sunset (firewood provided) Fish for smallmouth bass, sunfish & fallfish Watch sunset colors reflect across the water In the evenings, the firepit near the river becomes a gathering place — the warmth of the flames, the scent of the forest, and the sound of the water create a truly unforgettable atmosphere. 200 ACRES TO EXPLORE From open fields to forest edges, the property offers endless space to wander and play. From the large rock near the home, walk directly into George Washington National Forest, where trails weave through trees and open to expansive views. Wildlife is abundant, and guests often spot: Deer in the early morning light Bald eagles circling above the river Osprey diving for fish Great blue herons gliding low across the water Ducks paddling through quiet bends Wild turkeys crossing the fields Songbirds filling the valley with sound You may also see our two friendly cows who roam the pastures — gentle fixtures of the land who add to the peaceful charm. If you're lucky, you may even spot river otters frolicking in the gentle eddies — a magical sight when it happens. It’s a landscape that invites adventure, discovery, and quiet appreciation.

The home is beautiful, well-stocked, and very clean. We hardly want to leave the property when we're there. However, we did enjoy the "wilds" of Harper's Ferry and ventured into a couple of the small communities nearby. All worth it, but we're always happy to return to "heaven". ##### Leslie C.

May 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just wonderful! The house is well equipped. The surroundings are stunning. The house was clean and comfortable. There were puzzles for indoor entertainment. There are kayaks in the premise near the river (walking distance). There are also river tubes. Kayaking or river tubing can start directly from the property and end at a public access (15 minutes driving from property). There’s also a trail for hiking in the property (1 mile loop) but it’s pretty steep. We loved how peaceful it was. There is a slaughterhouse nearby that had excellent food essentials (eggs, amazing bacon and fresh meat). Bbq grill is right next to the dining table area which makes it very accessible. There is a deck adjacent to the main bedroom and living that has excellent views and a nice outdoor table. The hosts were great! ##### Lourdes B.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house. The home was very nice, clean, and serviceable. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. The property is beautiful, I can see why some folks have chosen to just stay here on their vacations. I wish we had time to enjoy more and will hopefully come back again. One note that might be important to those traveling with older family or friends is the 2nd bathroom is in the lower basement level of the home and the second floor is 2 bedrooms and no bathroom. That caused us to have to do a bit of an adjustment on who stayed in what bedrooms but was not a huge deal. Overall a GREAT home with GREAT views and very clean! Thank you! ##### Chris U.

Very clean, spacious, and well appointed. Plenty of space for our family of four plus grandma. The property is huge and in a very quiet and peaceful setting. Kids loved the direct access to the river. The host is very responsive and we took her many suggestions for local food, local meat at Crabill’s (best breakfast sausage ever!), and local activities. Could not have asked for anything more. It was a great reprieve from our temporary apartment living while our house is being renovated. Definitely recommend this property if your goal is to relax in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley! ##### Angela W. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Summer C.

The views are breathtaking in all directions. The River wraps around for unlimited fishing spot choices. The farmhouse has everything you could possibly need bc the owners have thought of it all. It’s so well stocked down to bug spray and pads of notepaper and pens. We were so incredibly impressed with this property. The house was very comfortable (couches, beds etc.) We had a fire near the river, we fished, and the kids played in the water. We went for a hike which is just right out the front door. There was so much to do and explore. We didn’t know what to expect when we booked this property and boy were we pleasantly surprised. It was such a beautiful experience. We will definitely be back and agree with all the other reviews. I see why others have said they’ve been back several times. We highly recommend. Thank you to the owners for sharing this absolutely beautiful piece of land. Our stay was magical and one we will never forget. ##### Summer C.

The river access was super easy. The house is clean and has EVERYTHING you could possibly need at your fingertips. Kathleen and Jerry were very helpful and available to help with any little detail. Their recommendation of Crabills meat market up the road was great and they even pointed us in the right direction for a restaurant in town. The only thing we would have done differently about our stay was to spend more time on this property because it was the best spot around. Do yourself a favor and book a weekend to just hang at this beautiful property. So relaxing. ##### Jack W.

We had planned to do some tourist visits to the caverns, etc, but we realized we were already in our own private mountain park and it couldn't get any better than this. We hiked, fished in the river, and grilled steaks from Crabill's up the street. We watched the mountain range on all sides of the surrounding valley turn into fall. We identified more song birds in this spot than in any other rental. We watched as deer, wild turkey and cattle grazed in the field. The night sky was wonderful for star gazing, and I even saw a meteor. If we could live here, we would.... ##### Janis D. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sindy U.

This gorgeous spot was so peaceful and serene.All you could hear were birds chirping, the rustling wind and river. There are kayaks, a fire pit, outdoor picnic tables and hammocks. It is a birding, hiking, and kayaking paradise. The house itself is beautifully decorated and each room was large, tasteful, and comfortable. The master bedroom was huge, comfortable and elegant. It had everything we needed including a large bathroom. The bed was comfortable and the room well lit. There was plenty of room for our clothing. The kitchen was well stocked with every condiment,,we could want. There were ample plates, silverware, cups, glasses, pots and pans. We thought we would go out to dinner more often, but we wound up eating in because the property was so gorgeous. We didn’t want to leave. Enjoy your stay at this beautiful property. We hope to come back very soon. ##### Sindy U. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andy R. Jul 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Country Retreat This property is on farmland with vast fields and a wide river. The house has many large windows and the view is quite spectacular. The house borders a picturesque barn and pasture, where two cows live. The house itself has very large rooms on the first floor and the master bedroom is huge. The kitchen is quite large as well. We enjoyed going down to the river and sitting and wading in the water. Unfortunately, the water level was very low when we were there (July) and we could not go out in the kayaks, tubes, etc. that are available at the house. I will note that there is no bathroom on the second floor. Also, it would have been nice to have a small table in the kitchen to sit at and have coffee or snacks. When we were there satellite TV was not working on the TV in the family room, but I think that was just a temporary glitch. Overall, we had a great time at the house. I would recommend it if you are looking for a country getaway. ##### Andy R. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle P.

Once you arrive you feel like you are far away from everything. However, you are only minutes away from so many other options. The beauty of the property and the river is amazing. The farmhouse was spacious, comfortable and very clean. Everything that you need to cook is available in the kitchen. We stopped at Crabill's Store as suggested and picked up a few delicious steaks and bacon - so glad we did!. We enjoyed the easy access to the river and the kayaks and floats that were provided with the property. The pavilion was more than expected with electric and items for campfire and other conveniences. Fishing was best from right off the bridge. The hosts were very detailed and informative prior to our arrival. They made you feel right at home. The entire process from beginning to end was so easy. We were only on a short weekend break but enjoyed every minute of our stay. Looking forward to staying again! I highly recommend experiencing the serenity of this property. ##### Michelle P.

The pictures on the website do not give an accurate depiction of the house or the property. It is WAY more beautiful, charming, and comfortable. As soon as we arrived, it felt as though we were plopped down in the middle of an National Geographic nature show. In our first few moments we were greeted by Whitetail Deer, Wild Turkey, Great Blue herons, Green herons, Belted Kingfishers, Osprey, and a huge variety of songbirds. The list continued to grow as the weekend continued...and the Smallmouth bass were bitin'!!! The farmhouse, itself, is much roomier than it appears in the photos. It was actually rather surprising. The rooms are large and very comfortable. The kitchen is as well. The cabinets are better stocked than those at my own house. From a large array of spices to every cooking utensil that you could possibly need, you will want for nothing. The plentiful supply of towels and the bed linens are soft and of obvious high quality. The one rainy day gave us a well-needed day of rest from all our outdoor activities. Even then, Mother Nature's show continued through the large windows throughout the house. We all could still watch the deer and flocks of turkey feeding in the surrounding fields. A rolling mist across the green mountains gave us the illusion being in Ireland. This place is simply heaven!!! ##### DANIEL L. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah S.

Bridge was passable just hours prior to our arrival but we had no issues thanks to her great communication. Highly recommend! ##### Joel C.
