About this house rental

The Spy House is rich with history and has been lovingly updated by Its owner. It was built in the 1880s in the Federal style and has been adapted for modern living with an open-concept living room and kitchen.

Any cook will feel at home in the well-appointed eat-in kitchen. You can enjoy a relaxing meal around the large handmade farm table. You will find a heavy-duty gas stove, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops.

The home features three bathrooms. The primary bathroom features a vintage clawfoot tub, the upstairs guest bathroom a shower, and the first-floor bathroom features a bespoke shower and vanity. Each of the three bedrooms has a comfortable queen-sized bed.

The house is situated on Camp Hill, which is less than a ten-minute walk to downtown historic Harpers Ferry and the train station. There is no downside to being so close to the action as even on the busiest of days in town, it remains quiet at the Spy House.

One of the house's former residents was suspected of being a spy for Germany, investigated and arrested by the FBI in 1945, and soon after pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit espionage; hence the name, the Spy House.

To complete your booking you must sign our Rental Agreement (which will be sent to you electronically) and provide a copy of your photo ID (e.g., valid driver’s license or passport). With those two items taken care of, you will be sent an email containing instructions for checking in the week of your stay.

We enjoyed the lovely location and pleasant ambience of this home. We were four adults all from the same family who enjoy visiting historic sites. The plusses were the quiet street, spacious rooms, nicely equipped kitchen and comfortable seating. Although the master bath was roomy and airy with a lovely clawfoot tub, there was no door. However, this was inside the master bedroom, so it might not matter to most people. The town itself is picturesque with some steep streets and nicely restored buildings. Many of these sold ice cream or were restaurants, but during the week we noticed most were closed by dinner time. This was surprising, but we did find a restaurant outside of town a bit. We used it twice for dinner during our time here. Lunch was not a problem. Jay responded pretty quick and answered any question we had. In our rush to depart on time I left a very full tote bag loaded with all my cosmetics, hair products, medications and other necessities hanging in the bathroom. He has promised to get this to me when he returns from traveling for business. (We will be happy to pay for the expense in sending it back to us.) Needless to say, my mistake dampened our visit. We live in Texas. I think anyone spending time here would enjoy their stay.

Conveniently located for a gathering of 79 yo college roommates interested in the Civil War, historic preservation and natural beauty along with a little wine. We filled the house with love, laughter and memories.

This is a cozy and lovely home with plenty of space. The kitchen is really nice and well stocked, the sitting areas are comfortable and the front porch is a great place to sit and enjoy the neighborhood. The bedrooms are all large and very comfortable. The location can't be beat. It's very convenient walking distance to everything in the town of Harper's Ferry as well as the Appalachian Trail etc.... We would love to come back!

What a fabulous place to stay! Charming, comfortable, and super clean. Plenty of space to spread out, a great backyard, and easy access to the Trail if you are hiking. Jay was very helpful and attentive, checking in with us on arrival and throughout our stay. Super comfy bed, great water pressure, large washer and dryer, well stocked kitchen...we would stay here again in a heartbeat!
