About this property

Walk to everything from this historic home in Harpers Ferry!

1st floor private suite with 2 entrances. Filled with light and art in our pre Civil War home in the heart of Harpers Ferry.

Trouvaille House was built in 1830 and was one of the earliest houses built. It has been remodeled in 2021 and is light, bright and full of artwork. It is a private guesthouse with 4 luxury suites and a community area with kitchen.

The Provence Suite is the largest in the house, originally a living room, complete with fireplace (Electric insert for safety!) and exquisite double sliding doors into a huge, skylit bathroom. The bathroom is very spa like with stained glass, dimmable lights and luxury toiletries, linens and robes. The claw foot bathtub is for soaking after a long day exploring town! (It does have a hand shower.) From your bathroom, you can go out into your private sunroom where you will find Nespresso coffee just waiting to be brewed! There is also a private keyed entrance in the sunroom if you prefer to use it. Your room has a mini fridge stocked with milk for your coffee as well as bottled water.

The new kitchen is a shared, gathering type space with full set of dishes, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, etc. Lots of windows and light and seating options.

Trouvaille House is on the Main Street - Washington Street, just steps from lower town and convenient to everything.

(No keys to lose or to return! This property provides secure, keyless entry with an August Smart Lock. You can lock and unlock the door with your smartphone, using a unique virtual key, or personal entry code issued to you for the duration of your stay.)

Fabulous stay at Harper's Ferry
The location of this property is fantastic. We parked the car and walked to everything! Seemed like a safe neighborhood. Christie, the host, is very responsive and helped us in a timely manner. The room was clean and perfect for a weekend getaway. We would definitely stay here again.

Great property in a great location. The towns of Harpers Ferry and Bolivar are within easy walking distance, and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy is right up the street. An evening of live music at The Barn is a must. I would definitely stay here again.

The property was fantastic and as advertised. Christie was responsive! The only issue was communicating with Christie through the VRBO app. Once in Harper's Ferry Christie provided her cell phone and was prompt in responding. Thank you for a wonderful weekend stay!

Peace and a bathtub
It’s a great place to get away. Christie leaves you with stellar recommendations for food, hikes, and shopping. I enjoyed reading in the sunroom on the rainy days of my stay and touring the places she recommended. And…… that soaking tub…… I’d go back for the bathtub alone. 10 outta 10 would recommend!

This is a beautiful and well-appointed home. It's convenient to town and other services such as a bakery and some good restaurants. The owner was easy to reach and came by the house to introduce herself. I highly recommend!

Overall Experience
My husband and I originally booked 2 nights. Temps were some of the coldest of the winter and when we arrived at the house we couldn’t even take our winter coats off because the house felt just as cold inside. We found the remote to start the electric fireplace in our room which kept it comfortable so we didn’t bring it to the owner’s attention as the problem was solved. However, we had the room with the large bathroom which was absolutely freezing! There was a drafty door from the bathroom that led to an enclosed glass patio that didn’t have any heat. We found a remote in the sunroom but didn’t see anything that it belonged to so when we text her she said it was for a heater in the sunroom (we didn’t see one) but she asked us not to turn it on. The bathroom was chilly but we didn’t complain to the owner since the chill stemmed from the unheated sunporch. We left for the evening and when we returned we had difficulty getting into our room using the keypad. After several attempts and contacting the owner she noted that the keypad to our room was “finicky”. The next morning the blow dryer stopped working within a few seconds after it was turned on. We tried all of the outlets in the bathroom and bedroom and only one in the bedroom worked which was behind the bed headboard. The gas fireplace also stopped working along with the tv. We contacted the owner. It took her an hour to respond. She said that has happened in the past and that the electric fireplace heater pulls a lot of power and you can’t use a blow dryer at the same time or an electrical issue occurs. In a phone conversation with the owner, she agreed that due to the issues we could check out after the first night and she would refund us the second night’s stay minus the cleaning fee which we agreed to. We commented that the temps were some of the coldest of the winter and there wasn’t much to do in the area and she pulled that from the conversation and is claiming that is why we checked out early, which is untrue. We gave the owner plenty of time to refund us what she verbally agreed to and we tried contacting her through text messages but no response. We were then notified that she is claiming damages for breaking the handle on her refrigerator which we did not do. What you do not see in any pictures is that small dorm-size refrigerator sits on the floor behind the door and when the door opens it automatically hits into the middle of the handle—right where it’s broken.

Great Stay in Harpers Ferry
My husband and I celebrated our 37th wedding anniversary with a weekend stay in Harpers Ferry. Our room was large and comfortable, with lots of charm. The host, Christie May, gave us a wonderful tour of the property, its history, and tips for things to do while in town. The location is great, within walking distance to restaurants, pubs, hiking, and other things to do. We will be back!

Beautiful Historical hHome as our first VRBO
Loved our host, Christie's hospitality and knowledge of the area. Everything she recommended was right on key. The house was an amazing historical home and our room was beautiful. Enjoyed taking a bubble bath in the clawfoot tub, after a long hike! Being our first VRBO, will definitely do this again. Would totally recommend this place to anyone!
