- "From the moment I booked our stay, the owners were prompt to respond to me and provide good information in advance. The home has been lovingly maintained and was just the experience I had hoped for. The proximity to Antietam National Battlefield was perfect. I selected this home as a "surprise" for my husband's birthday and it did not disappoint. We were traveling with our 15 year old dog who did not take to the stairs in the home very well (they are steep and short which guests are warned about) but the owners thoughtfully included pet/baby gates to avoid any misstep. Very positive experience."

Amy, the hostess, is a very nice woman and she’s easy to work with. She really goes above and beyond for her guests. For our stay, she contacted me to see when we would arrive. She gave us an earlier check in time. She has this place stocked. If we needed paper towels or toilet paper, she has it. She has extra light bulbs. She has laundry detergent, cleaners, soaps, shampoo and conditioner. I was shocked and thankful. She’s so thoughtful, she has earplugs on the nightstand.

Welcome to our home on the C&O Canal and the Potomac river, an original 1790 log house expanded in 1857, retaining its historic charm while featuring many modern amenities. The perfect place to be physically active or mellow, staying inside or enjoying multiple areas outdoors, day or night (lit with festive night lights).

Reconnect with nature! The expansive grounds have old tall mature trees, native flowers and garden-favorites, bushes, and a fire pit. Bird lovers, bring your binoculars or just watch the bird feeder below the pergola! Many species of birds visit our feeders and baths. Star gazing, far from the city lights, is another Guest favorite.

We are striving to reduce our environmental impact by restoring an American meadow and increasing the number of native plants that can be admired on our grounds. This obviates the need for using chemicals, reducing Potomac pollution, and attracting pollinators and other wild life. You are likely to see and hear numerous types of birds, insects, frogs, and perhaps even some animals and reptiles indigenous to the Potomac area. They are harmless unless attacked.

The maximum capacity of our historic house is 4 guests, the maximum capacity of each bedroom is 2 guests. The use of one of the bedrooms is included in the base price listed, the use of the second bedroom requires an additional charge. The guests need to be able to climb stairs to the entrance door, to upstairs bedrooms, and into the antique clawfoot bath tub. Tall people need to bend a bit when taking a shower.

Secluded, yet not remote, our home is the perfect base for exploring nature on foot, by bike, or by boat. The property is on the C&O Canal and offers seasonal views of the Potomac (when trees on its banks lose their leaves!) across the towpath.

The house is also a great base to explore the many close-by sites important in American history, and quaint historic little towns with good restaurants. Premium Outlet shopping and dining is also within miles.

(Property on the canal but has limited water views)

- "We really enjoyed our visit. The house is immaculately maintained for it's age. The outdoor areas seem endless and are welcoming as you stroll the walkways to the home. The home is a cozy retreat from everyday life. As a huge plus, the kitchen is stocked with everything we were looking for, making cooking dinner a simple process. We look forward to coming back in the winter." - "This was our second stay at Taylors Landing, for our anniversary. What an idyllic location to enjoy nature -- we brought our bikes for the towpath, and the kayaks for the river, within walking distance of the house. Our first stay was in winter, and delightful. This time we saw the garden in all its splendor. The towpath was excellent for biking, and we enjoyed the fireflies at dusk during our ride. The river was incredibly clear -- I'd post a picture if we were able -- we could see the bottom and all the fish. Loved spotting the green herons and the bald eagle! Thank you, Vern, for sharing your lovely house and grounds, as well as for introducing us to Sunnyside Meadows, with its amazing ice cream and beautiful garden nursery. We especially loved the renovated lagoon and pond examples. From the warm welcome note and care to make sure we could access the house, to the obvious care of the house and garden, Vern is a great host. One of our favorite locations on the Potomac River. Our tip -- park in the back, unpack your stuff at the back door, then enter the front (shoes off) and carry it in. :)"

- "We had an amazing stay in this cozy cabin. It was a perfect location to catch up with old friends from out of town. The sunset view from the top of the property is amazing! The kitchen was well furnished, and the fire pit was perfect for s’mores. Michael, the host, communicated effectively throughout the entire process. We would love to visit again in the future." - "We had such a relaxing stay at this location. One thing I would add to the listing (maybe I missed it) was how big the lot is. If you enjoy being surrounded by beautifully manicured wilderness then this is the place for you. The fire pit is perfect size. There is a wood pile to chop up some lumber for the fire (nice workout). It’s so nice to just unplug, take in a deep breath of country air and relax by a crackling fire. Also - you can’t beat the price ! All of the amenities were excellent! There was a black stone grill there to cook up your favorite mess free breakfasts with an adorable table next to it to eat. There’s also great state parks (we went to two of them). Do yourself a favor and get to this rental. You’ll be happy you did."

Welcome to this patch of serenity on the river's edge, to this hideaway.

Take a seat. Decompress a moment. Take note of the expanse at your purview. This is your temporary home. This is your reprieve from the pin numbers, passwords, online postings, news alerts and the 24/7 world that so consumes us.

Here you will find a home that touts all the modern conveniences while ensconced in another time, a slower time, a time of reflection if you are so inclined.

The space

Here you will find three bedrooms that sleep six, two full bathrooms, a kitchen, a flat-screen television, wi-fi and the gorgeous views of the Potomac River, which divides West Virginia from Maryland on the opposite shore.

Here you will find a home that touts all the modern conveniences while ensconced in another time, a slower time, a time of reflection if you are so inclined.

There is a grill, if grilling is your forte. There is a deck that requires nothing more than your presence.

This stretch of the river lures all kind of water enthusiasts: kayakers, canoers, bird-watchers, photographers, Civil War aficionados and anglers seeking to land a good-sized walleye.

Many of your water-related needs can be met at Shepherdstown Pedal & Paddle on German Street, the principal thoroughfare in town.

There are plenty of hiking trails around Knott Road. Nothing puts you at one with Mother Nature more than the quiet and solitude of the untouched forests that envelop the area. Many are as they were in the early 1860s, when the Yankees lined the far shore and the Rebels the one that beckoned you.

Otherwise, please enjoy your time in this idyllic setting.

Guest access

The entire house, front and back patios, front yard, and water access to the Potomac River.

Other things to note

That rooster you sometimes hear crowing is in charge of the neighborhood watch group, although his calls are mostly directed to the flock of hens that responds to his reports of finding a trove of yummy bugs or the occasional predator. And, my, how the flock loves bits of bread.

We have a security camera mounted on the front of our deck. The coverage area includes our driveway, lower steps, and front yard. It is not our aim to invade your privacy.

- "We enjoyed a nice family getaway at this beautiful retreat! We were a family of 6 and the house met all our needs. My only comment would be the outside front stairs were steep for the grandparents in their late 70’s. There are images shown, it was just us not fully thinking it through." - "Perfect place to stay and visit Antitem and Harpers Ferry Sites. Location was convenient and the house was beautiful. Spacious and a great view. We enjoyed the deck. Bedrooms and bathrooms were a good size. The house had everything we needed. Loved that the owners thought of everything from board games, coffee, extra towels, pillows, blankets, a fan etc… the house was clean, booking was easy owner was very responsive. Perfect spot"

This is a 1940s refurbished fisherman's cabin. It was likely built in or about 1942 as the original electric fixtures are from that date, we had to modernize them though as they don't meet current code. It is very likely that the structure was built to replace an older wooden structure in the same location. There is electricity but no running water, bottled water is provided.
NOTE that the bathroom is a pit outhouse located nearby.

On the west side of the 200square foot room, you will find a very comfortable Queen sized bed with CertiPUR foam mattress and lots of pillows. There are several blankets. At the foot is a WWII mail crate restored and converted to a trunk that was found in the tiny house, used to store extra linens and blankets. Above the headboard is a fantastic decorative shelf made from river maple that fell by the river in front of the building. Right in front of the bed is a window affording great views of the river.

On the east side of the building is the sitting area with kitchen cabinets. The counter is made from old reclaimed barn door complete with the clasp. The shelves above are from the from of the barn door complete with hinges. Equipped with utensils, a microwave, dorm fridge, and crock water dispenser.

Nestled to the other side of the tiny house is the very clean and comfortable pit toilet (out house). It is in the original location but all rebuilt with modern seat and plenty of privacy, well vented and stocked with hand sanitizer.

Full access to all living spaces, parking area, all yard areas.
The river front and fire pit are shared areas with the Stone River house.

If the weather permits, I highly recommend tubing down Antietam Creek. If your group has at least two vehicles, ask me for info on put in and take out options and you can do it all yourself!

- "My friends/partners and I used this home for a weekend getaway to enjoy some river tubing. I feel like the pictures don't due the home justice. The decor is warm and inviting. Beds very comfortable. THe house is fully stocked with plenty of utensils, pots pans, and basic cooking supplies such as oil, salt, pepper, tin foil etc. We rented the tubes available to float on the antietam creek. If you have two vehicles well worth the 10 dollars. We were able to tube on our own time without the chaos of using a large company. The owner was very easy to communicate with throughout the stay. Highly recommend!"

We were able to easily walk to restaurants (I would recommend Alma Bea, Blue Moon Cafe, and Lilah) and also nearby places of interest, such as the Riverfront Park and the Rumsey Monument. It was also fun to trace the Town Run through town (it is a small creek fed by a spring south of town that runs north through Shepherdstown to the Potomac). The location of our stay was awesome, and the apartment itself was clean and well-appointed. If we return to Shepherdstown, we will have to stay again. Thanks, Zeb!"

- "This small cottage is so comfortable and well appointed. Directly across from the C&O Canal Towpath; it only takes a few minutes to get on the path. Although there is a lot that you can do in the area, we were in need of respite, so other than taking multiple walks a day, we enjoyed time on the expansive screened-in porch, looking out at the beautiful scenery and listening and watching the birds.We also enjoyed making meals in the kitchen and using the outside grill for bacon to burgers. We slept very well on the very comfortable king size bed. Serena is a great host as she readily replied whenever contacted. We are definitely planning to return. It would be so much fun to tube down the river. "
