About this house rental
Mountainside Lodge is located in the heart of historic downtown Harper's Ferry, and in the middle of Harper's Ferry National Historical Park. This one-of-a-kind vacation rental is located in a 2-1/2 story brick federal-period building built in the 1830's. The house shares the building with a family-style restaurant (The Rabbit Hole) and a very popular gift and jewelry shop, The Vintage Lady. The house was originally 2 townhouses, and the center walls were removed in the 1970s to create a large open space on the 1st floor. While the house's exterior painting scheme reflects this original configuration and looks like 2 separate units, the vacation rental spans both spaces (see photo). The building was used during the civil war by both Confederate and Union Armies, primarily as an infirmary/hospital, and is a stop on the Harpers Ferry Ghost Tour.
The first floor of the house features a large open living room/dining room, a full modern kitchen, 1/2 bath, and a large porch with fantastic mountain and river views and views of Harpers Ferry gap. The inside space features hard-wood floors, exposed brick walls, an exposed beam ceiling (many of the beams are original hand-hewn), and large windows looking onto the mountains and the Potomac River. There is a Roku TV with cable, DVD player, VCR, games and toys, and a 10-seat dining table on the 1st floor. A highchair is available upon request. In addition to modern amenities, the house is decorated in fantastic period antiques.
The second floor has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a laundry room w/ full-sized washer and dryer, and offers views of the Potomac River. The master bedroom has a Queen bed and a comfortable full-size futon (comfortable for 1 adult or 2 children). The second bedroom has a Queen bed, and the 3rd bedroom has a twin/full bunk bed (twin on top; full on bottom). The configuration is ideal for two families (4 adults and up to 5 kids), 2-3 couples, or 6-7 friends! All three bedrooms have TVs and DVD players and comfy sheets, mattresses and pillows.
The building sits atop a steep hill, and there are 65 stairs leading down to the 2 parking spaces reserved for the vacation rental in the rear of the building. The front-door to the house is at street-level, so door-to-door drop-off of luggage is possible.

A warm and comfortable home located in the historic district of Harper's Ferry. Lots do: hiking, walking, touring the National Park, dining.... The home had everything you need for your stay. Well appointed kitchen, books, games, and super comfy sofas and beds. Communication was really good. We're looking forward to returning for another stay.

The home was so spacious and clean. The quality of the bedding was very nice quality, bathroom showers were updated and kitchen had everything you needed. It was nice to have a large filtered water cooler in the kitchen. The location of this home could not be beat! Right off the main strip with a wonderful restaurant, The Rabbit Hole, right underneath. It is eactly as presented in the description, if not better! The hosts were helpful and communicative. An all around great experience!

This was the coolest rental house we’ve ever stayed in and the kitchen was the best stocked. The location couldn’t have been better.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2025
The age of the home and location are the charm of this house. We enjoyed the over all stay. However, be aware that the water flow is poor and down to a drip at times. The washer has what we guessed was mineral buildup (possibly the cause of the pressure?) That in turn, is transferred to the dryer. We also had a small snake visit us in the down stairs sitting room.
