Cozy place!
I was looking for a B&B close to my sister's house in Harpers Ferry, and was overjoyed to find something available just steps away from her! The Carriage House had just what we needed to meet our basic needs of sleep & shower, and the room was nicely decorated with thoughtful extras.

Quiet cottage on the Ridge
The cottage was exactly as described and better. Though the property was small, every need was met. The location was outstanding...just yards from the Appalachian Trail with stunning view of the Shanendoah River and accessible to upper and lower Harpers Ferry. I was on foot throughout my stay and found this site challenging yet ideal with access to the cottage's ridge location via neighborhood streets, trails, and hillside stairs,...all beautiful and filled with history. I hope to return again soon.

Sweet spot for a relaxing mini-moon
A great little room for my new husband and I to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, and wedding planning. Perfect location, backs right up the the Appalachian trail. I wish there were a few hooks on the walls to hang more things, but if that's the only complaint I have, we had an amazing time.

Snug stay
Creative conversion of garage into a bedroom with bath. Not much external light or room to move around. Single sink for hybrid bathroom-kitchen arrangement. Charming table for two immediately outside the front door for a meal in favorable weather. Short, hilly walk to all of the attractions so you can leave your car and avoid parking hassles near the historic part of town.

Harpers Ferry Serene
The Carriage House was a perfect spot for exploring Harpers Ferry and the surrounding area. It was very comfortable, and the outdoor sitting area was serene. Loved being able to walk downtown. Greatly enjoyed seeing deer around the property in the evenings.

Nice weekend
My wife and I stayed at the carriage house for a weekend away in Harper's ferry. It was a nice little cottage that was very clean and cozy. It's not a huge space but that was okay for just my wife and I. My only critisism is that there is only one sink to wash your hands and wash any dishes you used and. Not a huge issue nonetheless. I would definitely stay there again.
