Our goal at the Town’s Inn (“the Inn”) is to serve individuals, couples, families, and other groups who want to savor the recreational, educational, cultural, and social activities available in this idyllic setting that has not changed much since 1783 when Thomas Jefferson wrote: “The passage of the Patowmac through the Blue Ridge is perhaps one of the most stupendous scenes in Nature… This scene is worth a voyage across the Atlantic.” We hope you enjoy your visit to this well-preserved national treasure that includes both the historic town and its exquisite natural setting!
The Town’s Inn consists of two pre-Civil War stone residences: the Mountain House at 175 High Street (circa 1820) and the Heritage House at 179 High Street (circa 1840). Located in the heart of Lower Town (the historic market district of Harpers Ferry), we are a block from the Amtrak train station and a few steps away from not only the museums of the living history village (NPS.gov/hafe), but also the C&O Towpath (NPS.gov/choh) and the Appalachian Scenic Trail (nps.gov/appa), which offer bicycling, hiking, river sports, and more. Harpers Ferry, West Virginia (almost heaven), is located at the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers, approximately 60 miles from Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, Maryland, and provides a nice balance for urban/ suburban lifestyles. The mild temperatures year-round make the Inn a place for all seasons, for many reasons. The average high temperature in February is 45 degrees, which makes winter getaways especially appealing. Located on the main street of town in the middle of the historical village, the Inn is well equipped to accommodate retreats, reunions, special events, and fun-filled getaways for families, couples, and individuals. Gather for meals, meetings, or just relaxation in the common areas, which include the beautiful stone patios that surround and connect the two buildings of the Inn, the Parlor in the Heritage House at 179 High Street, and the Marketplace Country Store & Self-Serve Café in the Mountain House at 175 High Street.
LODGING: Each of the eight guest rooms in the Inn is unique — but all rooms have a fridge (about 3.5 cubic feet), a microwave, a coffeemaker, and complimentary coffee and tea. Six of the rooms have private bathrooms, but only three of these rooms have the private bathroom en suite. The other two rooms share one bathroom. All of the rooms are family-friendly — and two of the rooms are pet-friendly. The prices of the rooms range from $80 to $200.
MARKETPLACE COUNTRY STORE & SELF-SERVE CAFE: The Inn offers year-round dining and shopping (6:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. daily). The Mountain House contains a self-serve Café featuring food from fine vendors and homemade specialties. Seating is available on the patios and on the balcony. The Café in the Mountain House has indoor seating, as well. We will happily prepare customized picnics and gift baskets. The little Marketplace Country Store features hiker resupply products ~ local snacks and beverages ~ local arts and crafts ~ gifts ~ toiletries ~ souvenirs ~ books ~ and more!
SPECIAL PACKAGES: Special packages can be arranged featuring recreational activities such as outdoor sports and tours to nearby wineries and breweries. The Inn also features educational activities through the American Health & Heritage Adventure Academy.
AMERICAN HEALTH & HERITAGE ACADEMY (AHHAA): The Academy, located on the premises, provides customized educational packages for individuals and groups with special interests. Courses are taught by local residents who live and work in or near Harpers Ferry, for example National Park Rangers, Appalachian Trail Conservancy staff, Shepherd University professors, and many other talented and gifted people who are eager to share their expertise about health, history, and our American heritage (including music, art, drama, and more) with visitors to Harpers Ferry. Any visitor can savor self instructional activities. See http://www.ExperienceHarpersFerry.com to learn more about this amazing village.
Contact the owner, Karan Townsend, at karantownsend@gmail.com for assistance in planning your visit to Harpers Ferry!

I have a working farm with cows, goats, donkeys and cats. With this in mind, I know that I cannot allow hikers to bring pets onto the farm. I am located at 502 Dotson Ridge Rd.(Hwy. 619 Ceres VA. 24318 about 2.5 road miles West from where the trail crosses VA. Hwy. 42 (Old Wilderness Rd.) and also from where the trail crosses Old Rich Valley road (Hwy. 610) . It is a pleasant, mostly downhill walk. Catching a ride to Dotson ridge from either of these crossings is possible. If cell phone signal is available, you can call and I will pick you up at either crossing. I fix Breakfast of pan cakes for my guest. I have frozen pizzas hikers may purchase and can prepare in hiker kitchen. The views from my home/hostel are spectacular. From the front the view is of Walker mountain where the trail crosses between my hostel and Mount Rogers. Each Season has its own beauty from the Spring when everything comes alive. The Summer when the days are long, the sunrise and sunsets are spectacular. The Fall brings the colors as the Mountainsides turn from shades of green to beautiful bright colors of every shade. The Winter is a time when the hills turn white with snow and the animals with there bright coats stand out against the background of white. Whether Southbound or Northbound you will be treated with a landscape unmatched anywhere.I have rules in place which I require my guests to agree to and acknowledge receipt of which I feel will insure my hikers have a pleasant stay. I also have a hold harmless agreement which I require my guests to sign which states that since this is a working farm there are issues which I have no control of. I require a photo I.D. so I will know who my guests are and also who I need to contact in case of emergency. All of my guests in the past have appreciated the rules and also understand the need for I.Ds. and the hold harmless agreement. I welcome suggestions from hikers as to how I can improve my services. I want my guests to be comfortable while they stay and also want them to be rested and ready for the return to the A.T. I promote Christian values and request that my guests respect this. I depend on donations from my hiker guest to offset the cost of operating the hostel. For your convenience I accept credit cards. I am not funded by any Church or Denomination, although my home Church of Mid-Way Baptist in Raleigh NC. has contributed many items and supplies in order for me to be where I can provide the services which hikers need when they come off the trail for a day or two. Without the prayers and support of my home Church, I would not be able to have this hostel. There are many hours of work represented here which were given by friends and members of my Church. If you stay with me, you will be able to view and appreciate the expert craftsmanship of these men.
Since I cater to long distance hikers, I don’t furnish linen. I do furnish clean pillow case, towels and bath cloth. Guest need to have there own sleeping bag.

The Appalachian Trail is the longest hiking-only footpath in the world! It crosses through 14 states, from Maine to Georgia. It runs for 2,190 miles, and more than 71 of those miles run through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It takes about 7 days to hike the part of trail that runs through the National Park, but you can cut it shorter by making Clingmans Dome or Newfound Gap the midpoint. At Clingmans Dome, you’ll reach the highest point in all of Tennessee! When you hike the trail, you’ll see the beauty of the Smoky Mountains firsthand. Not only is it a great experience, but it is great exercise as well! Stay at The Appy Lodge and get a good night’s rest before embarking on your journey on the Appalachian Trail!

n 2013, Greg and Jen left the corporate world where work more, make more, spend more was the mantra, and moved to Costa Rica. They became experts on the country and each wrote Amazon best selling books on the subject of chucking it all and moving abroad. You can find Jen’s Amazon Author Page here and Greg’s Amazon Author Page here. Jen also has a successful jewelry business, which was established in Costa Rica (and since has incorporated adventure hiking jewelry!).
After 4 years of enjoying Costa Rica and a new fondness for hiking in the mountains of the Central Valley where they lived, the couple decided it was time for a new adventure. What could be better than spending 6 months living in the woods and hiking the entire Appalachian Trail?
Starting on Springer Mountain, Georgia on March 22, 2017 and ending on Mount Katahdin, Maine on September 16, 2017 their thru-hike was THE adventure of a lifetime! Along the way they became known by their trail names Chica and Sunsets, and documented their journey daily on their YouTube channel Chica and Sunsets.
Since the AT, the couple has thru-hiked the Camino de Santiago, Bartram, Colorado, Ice Age, Foothills, Art Loeb, and New England trails (as well as the Tahoe Rim Trail and Benton MacKaye trails individually) – all documented on YouTube.
