Cute space with many original details and thoughtful and tasteful decorations, including great holiday decorations. Comfortable and clean bed and space. Clean modern bathroom. One large spacious room for living and sleeping. Good towels and sheets. Kitchen was well stocked with basics. Check-in was easy. Short drive from charming little Shephardtown.

Kearneysville is ideally located to take in Gettysburg, Martinsburg, Harpers Ferry, CharlesTown, & Sharpsburg / Antietam Battlefield . We were to visit all during our 5-day stay . After walking all day, each day, we were rewarded at end of each one to come back to this GREAT Historic Schoolhouse to “take the load off our feet” & RELAX !
