2 Bedroom Cabin in Kabletown, Harpers Ferry

Reservations Being Welcomed for 2025
We are excited to launch another beautiful season hosting guests at our Moonridge Cottage, with the continued anticipation of providing you with a fun and unique place to stay while exploring the Harpers Ferry area, or just hanging out and relaxing. We continue to be very grateful for all of the wonderful folks that have spent time with us these last 9 years - and would be happy to have you all come back in the future. We will do our very best to assure that our cabin is perfect for your stay. We intend to keep our nightly rate constant at $185, regardless of which nights you choose to stay. We do have a few simple policies regarding dogs staying at Moonridge - please read them in this description below.
We continue to offer our mountain home as the the perfect place for your weekend of peace and quiet in nature while enjoying the clean, cozy comforts of home.
Moonridge Cottage is a lovely rustic yet modern cabin just 90 min from DC, Baltimore and Northern Virginia, tucked away at the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains of West Virginia in the Shannondale neighborhood. We invite you to schedule a long weekend in these beautiful mountains and celebrate the beauty of nature's offerings - hiking, fishing, rafting, kayaking, sightseeing, or just relaxing in our cozy home, especially on the large screened porch.
Moonridge is the mountain home of Anne and Paul Eggers and is available for vacation rental during spring, summer and fall (April-early December). This eclectic home (recently dubbed “quirky cool”) is decorated with colorful touches and specially chosen works of art which make it feel warm and welcoming. From your first walk into this charming home to your departure drive back down the mountain, we hope you will make many happy memories here with friends and family. The cabin is all on one level, with only one short step into the entryway from the stone path. It has hardwood flooring and area rugs, no carpet.
Two bedrooms (master with queen bed; second bedroom with two twins). Some small toys in twin bed room. Huge screened porch with porch swing, table and 4 chairs, and new (2023) loveseat/swivel chairs grouping - great spot for morning coffee, evening glass of wine, watching the local wildlife and sunset over the distant Shenandoah River. You are welcome to plug-in the lighted stars, colorful globe, and the little water fountain. The kitchen is well-equipped -new refrigerator (2020) and electric oven (2021), 12-cup drip coffeemaker (coffee and filters provided), cookware, cookie sheets, cutlery set, blender, hand mixer, toaster, microwave, Crock Pot, roasting pan, large salad bowl, all dishes/glassware/silverware, small Brita water pitcher, Cuisinart waffle iron, and stocked with basic staples. If you choose to eat-in you are welcome to bring your own food. We are located 20 minutes UP the mountain from the nearest restaurants and grocery stores of Harper’s Ferry and Charles Town, so please keep this in mind when planning your meals.
The main living area has comfortable sofa and chairs, brand new small (2022) combo TV/DVD with ChromeCast for streaming from your devices on our TV, Xfinity TV, and a DVD library of cool movies. Enjoy our vaulted ceiling with three new, crystal clear skylights, and a new Jotul wood stove for those chilly spring/fall evenings. Wood is abundant on our lot, and there are also a couple of woodpiles and a saw and hatchet in the lower crawl space for you to use if you wish. Our home can be heated by a gas furnace, if needed. Our bedrooms have small space heaters to keep you warm at night, if needed. There are five new lighted ceiling fans throughout the cabin, one in the main room, one in each bedroom, and two indoor/outdoor lighted fans on the porch. We have added a keyless-entry door, sliding kitchen window, and two energy efficient air conditioners located in the main room and master bedroom. Our washer and dryer are also new (5/19). The cabin was freshly painted in the Spring of 2017. Other amenities include hair dryer, umbrellas, Dry-Stix, 2 yoga mats and blocks, Pak 'N Play crib and sheets, a pair of Leki hiking poles, and Weber charcoal grill with charcoal chimney - use of charcoal lighter fluid or other accelerants is prohibited. Charcoal is provided. We recently added 2 comfy folding camp chairs for those who love to sit outside, and 2 vintage teak lawn chairs. We have a small Magnus chord organ and a small steel tongue drum (2021) for our musical guests, a kalimba, and we have a small tuned guitar hanging on the wall. All linens (kitchen, bathroom and bedroom) are included - if you are planning any outdoor water activities (e.g rafting or tubing), bring your own towels for that, please do not use the cabin towels.
We have excellent Internet and WiFi service at Moonridge, so you stay connected even out here in the woods. Network and passcode are on cards that we keep in the bedrooms and in our Welcome notebook.
We’ve been often asked about the quality of our well water...not only is it potable, it is very delicious, and completely safe.
THERE IS NO OUTDOOR BURNING OF ANY KIND ALLOWED ON OUR PROPERTY, and Moonridge is strictly a No Smoking home. Firearms are ABSOLUTELY PROHIBITED at Moonridge. We do not have local trash service as we cannot tempt “critters” in the wild, and we ask that our guests pack out their trash, or if that’s not possible, that it be left inside the cabin (or in the crawl space) for us to pick up after you leave. We also have a dedicated recycling bin - you can leave your recycles, or take them out with you. Usual check-in time is 4pm, check-out is 12noon, but these times can be flexible.
Area attractions: explore Harpers Ferry National Historic Park, the Appalachian Trail and ATC Visitor Center in town, Charles Town Races and Casino, Antietam National Battlefield, Historic Shepherdstown, fishing, tubing, canoeing, white water rafting and kayaking on the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers. Zipline and treetop course nearby at Harpers Ferry Adventure Park, unique local dining, shopping, wineries and breweries, and antiquing in quaint historic towns (Shepherdstown and Charles Town, WV, Leesburg, VA, and Frederick, MD). Hiking and biking along river roads and the C&O Canal, or simply relax and enjoy your escape from the outside world. Kids might enjoy the Leesburg Animal Park in Leesburg, VA. For auto sports fans, we are about 20 minutes from Summit Point Motorsport Park. We are only 2 miles from the Mountain Lake Club, home to a 55-acre lake that provides beach time, boating and kayaking all for a day pass fee.
RE: Handicapped Accessible - The paved driveway is quite steep, but parking at the top is fairly level. The stone path to the house from the driveway is not smooth but is lighted with small solar lights. There is one stone step going into the cabin - guests with walkers will be OK, cottage is honestly not wheelchair-friendly. Bathroom doorway and bathroom itself are narrow.
This is a very "prop-your-feet-on-the-furniture" spot, for making yourself totally at home. If you're squeamish about about stink bugs and little spiders, this is probably not the place for you. The cabin was built in the 1940's, and altho it’s far from a glitzy hotel room, we are sure that it’s clean, casual setting is the perfect place for relaxing, recharging, and refreshing body and soul. It's about 800 square feet, and with only one bathroom, more than 4 people will be very tight.
RE: Kid-friendly - Kids love building forts and rock cairns in the surrounding woods (cabin sits on 1/2 acre of woods), sleeping on the porch in summertime (BYO sleeping bags!) and wading/rock-hopping in the Shenandoah River, which is a short drive from Moonridge. There may be wildlife visible from the screened-in porch and all the windows. Kids love the Scavenger Hunt that awaits them.
Smoking is NOT allowed. NO smoking on the screened porch either.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome at no extra charge, and must be on leash at all times outside the cabin. We also require that they be crated when left alone in our home, and they are not allowed on the furniture or on the beds. No other pets are allowed. We offer a small water dish and small leash. When booking your stay, please indicate that you will be bringing your pup(s) along with you.
We are currently into our tenth year of hosting guests, and are excited about welcoming you in the coming season. We did appreciate that especially the years of 2020-22 our guests were seeking a clean, safe, and secure place to spend time off ....that is what we offered, and continue to offer, to everyone. It’s our pleasure to open our door wide to new adventurers, and our “old” friends alike. See you at Moonridge!
