This cute little cottage (a converted carriage house) was perfect for my stay in Harper's Ferry. The cottage was well maintained, clean and cozy. I would definitely stay there again - particularly if I came in a car (it is near the top of a tall hill, and I came by bike off the C&O towpath, which was a climb!). Notes: (1) there are two rentals with the same address, a house and this carriage house out back. I had a mildly embarrassing moment when I showed up and tried to enter the wrong house. (2) as a converted carriage house, it's small - think hotel room - but nonetheless wonderfully appointed and maintained. All said, a cozy and comfortable place that I would definitely stay in again.

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.

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.

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.

Birthday Gift

My wife gave me this trip as a birthday gift (birthday November 7) for my 80th birthday. We walked from the cottage to the town each day which truly proves I am still in shape (lol). We enjoyed our walks, the cleanliness and comfort of the cottage, and the food.

The Perfect Weekend Getaway

Harpers Ferry is a must visit, and the Carrot Top Cottage was the perfect location to be completely immersed in the history and quaitness you'd expect to find.The hosts are 2nd to none and quick to act when situations out of their control occurred. The power outage literally set the town back into the early 19th century. We will definitely be visiting again, and would recommend to coupmes of all ages.

Wonderful Cottage

Clean, was perfect for me and my Husband. A little of everything we needed for our stay. I would however, like the tall bush by the entrance door trimmed away a little better. Not much room to step down and turn to open the door and carry luggage. Over all, beautiful location and cottage.

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.
