We stayed overnight only as part of a longer road trip and really enjoyed the ambiance of this beautifully decorated, 1870s era home. Bryan and Debbie recently moved to an Airbnb model and we were the only guests in the home. We had full use of the kitchen, parlor, and dining room, and, of course, our suite. The suites were amazing and consisted of a spacious bedroom, sun porch, and bathroom, all nicely decorated. Debbie promptly replied to any questions we had. We drove to the historic sites and it's a very fast drive. We found it very quiet, too.
We would definitely stay there again.

Excellent place with class and a touch of history. If you’re lucky enough to get a place in this 3-4 room house then you’ll be well looked after and pleased. Good parking, nice rooms, excellent WiFi, elegant breakfast and a relaxing sitting room and porch.
Also, well positioned for a 10 minute walk down the hill to the rivers.
Hostess was charming and attentive, so all in all an easy “excellent” rating.

The Angler's Inn B&B was amazing. I stayed in the Washington Room and the room was clean, comfy and quiet. The room was beautiful, it was full of dark antique furniture and elephants. The bed was soft and firm. The B&B is about a mile from the Harper's Ferry train station.

The inn's owners were kind and welcoming. And the breakfasts were amazing. When I travel back to Harper's Ferry I would love to stay here again.

The Angler's Inn is located on top of the hill in the Historic district of Harpers Ferry, WV. It is a B&B and provides guided fishing tours (seperate cost). The house is beautifully decorated in a classic style, and the rooms are crisp and clean. I felt very relaxed and at home in the room, which also had a seperate reading/lounging room. All of the books and magazines provided could have kept me indoors all day! In the bathroom, the pedistal sink and classic bathtub with legs gave it a great country charm. There is tons to do in Harpers Ferry for a weekend, from hiking to rafting and shopping to dinning. After a long day and restful nights sleep, there is nothing better than waking up to a gourmet breakfast. It was delicious, and the presentation was excellent. I did not have time to partake in the guided fishing, but I plan on bringing my brother down to go with him. There are special package prices for rooms and fishing. Check out their website www.theanglersinn.com for all the details. The proprietors name is Debbi, and she was wonderful. She was polite and attentive, and she cooks the gourmet breakfast herself. There aer also homemade cookies and refreshments in the lounge. I will definitely return. Also, the Cliffside Inn, just down the road, is not even half as nice as the Angler's Inn. They are comparable in price, but not in quality. Do not be fooled by the location the the Cliffside Inn.

I received terrible customer service when I tried to make a reservation to stay at the Inn. On January 22nd I purchased a Living Social Deal to stay any weekend before April 30th. I called 8 days later and spoke with both Brian and Debi Kelly, and they were booked for the next 12 weekends except for one, in which we alread had spring break plans. My options were either to rearrange my plans or to return the living social deal. It appeared as if they had oversold the Living Social promotion. Debi went on about how I should have called immediately after purchasing because they booked up so fast. I did not think 8 days was too late to call for a deal that would not expire for 3 more months. My experience in the past with using Living Social for three years now, is that it is the owner/manager, etc's decision to extend a promotion deal beyond the published expiration date. In my case, before I made a decision regarding what I wanted to do, I wanted to know all of my options. I asked Debi if they would be willing to extend the promotional deal beyond the April 30th expiration date since they were all booked. She put me on hold and I assumed she was looking into it. To my utter shock I heard her call me a very bad curse word to her husband. I could not believe the innkeeper had called me a curse word, espeically because I felt I was being kind, very flexible, and understanding. She did not expect me to hear her but I did. She admitted it was unprofessional and she apologized. When she handed me over to her husband I expected an apology from him as well, but to my surprise he proceeded to berate me even further. I was incredulous. I should have hung up then. He was condescending and incrediblly unprofessional. They seemed to get really offended and defensive when I asked them if they would be willing to extend the promotional deal. All they had to do was say "no" and I would have returned the Living Social voucher. Brian likes to defer to his countless satisfied guests over the years, but that does not excuse treating me poorly over the phone. I had the unfortunate experience of witnessing their true colors. There is no excuse for calling a potential guest such a rude and underserved name. I was not being difficult on the phone--I was asking my options so I could make a well-informed decision. I felt pressured by them to book a future stay and apply the $190 instead of returning the voucher. In over 30 years of world travel I have never had such difficultly with an owner/proprietor/manager or experienced such disrespecfulness. I cannot speak of the value, cleanliness, etc, of the Inn because I will never be staying there. When I called Living Social several days later to return the voucher, they actually told me that my complaint was not the first one they had received, and that they were notifying their management.

I wanted to give my husband a short weekend getaway for his 50th Birthday and stumbled upon this gem in Harper’s Ferry. Gorgeous historical home with amazing breakfast. We stayed in the Fenwick room which featured a comfy bed, it’s own porch and a wonderful claw foot tub! Sure not to disappoint!

We stayed here for one night and had the place to ourselves (pretty cold in Harpers Ferry in March, so not many tourists). Everything was very clean and well organized. Enjoyed the cookies and tea service in the living room. Debby was very informative and helpful. So glad we hired a professional guide to see Harper's Ferry.
Breakfast was excellent.

Their website describes it a home away from home’, and while it may sound clichéd, it truly was for us. During our 2 week vacation and staying in 6 different hotels, our stay here with Debbi & Bryan was really the nicest and most memorable!

We booked the Fenwick room which had a comfortable King sized bed in a calming grey-blue room and a lovely sunporch off the bedroom which was great for reading and relaxing with views of the trees.

The towels were plush and absorbent and I loved that they didn’t provide run-of-the-mill amenities. It was nice having the full sized milk bath and even make-up wipes and lip balm! Having brought the lip balm home with me, each time I use it I am reminded of our special stay at Angler’s Inn.

It may look very near to the main part of town on Goole Earth but in actuality it is about a ¾ of a mile walk uphill from the town. It seemed daunting to us upon arrival but surprisingly it was totally doable as it was a gradual slope and only took about 15 minutes to walk.

It is ideally located within steps to the popular restaurants for dinner so we enjoyed evening strolls just over the next small hill and back.

Mornings were delightful sitting on the front porch with a cup of our favourite hot beverage personally delivered by Debbi and followed up with an absolutely splendid breakfast!

On our first morning we enjoyed maple glazed grapefruit, currant cream biscuits and omelettes with tomato, scallion, goat’s cheese and prosciutto ham. It was not only totally unique but truly delicious!

On our second morning, we delighted in Apple Currant crisps, pumpkin muffins, lemon ricotta pancakes and spiced bacon! And yes, it was as splendid as it sounds!

It was nice to have communal dining around the table as we met 2 lovely couples and learned a lot about fishing as one of the couples were there to enjoy a few days of fishing. The other couple took us on a day excursion with them to nearby Shepherdstown and we are still in communication since then!

So not only did we have a memorable stay, we made great travel friends as well. If our travels take us through Harpers Ferry in the future, there won’t be another other choice of accommodation for us!

We (couple, 45, no pets or kids, non smokers, travel frequently) stayed at this Inn to combine a weekend get away with a guided fly fishing trip through the Inn's guided service, White Fly Outfitters. This is our 4 th year visiting the Inn and fishing. Debbie runs a wonderful bed and breakfast experience! The rooms are very cozy but not too small. I believe there are ceiling fans in each room. The Inn is spotless and the sheets so soft you will not want to get out of bed. A deluxe and unique breakfast is served each morning. Coffee, tea, soft drinks, lemonade, and delicious homemade cookies are always available. Oh don't forget the plush towels and robes! The front porch is perfect for rocking or swinging, getting a read in, or just having a cool drink. The owners Debbie and Brian Kelly are good people. You will not be disappointed if you get away to the Angler's Inn! Easy drive from DC. Free off street parking and very close to historic Harper's Ferry. Book early! Every time we've visited the sign reads No Vacancy! Enjoy.

Is Anglers Inn pet friendly?
Answer from lentenrose22

Thank you for inquiring. Out of courtesy for visiting and future guests with allergies, and as we are not qualified to interpret appropriate paperwork for visiting pets, we do not host guest's pets. There are some vacation rentals in our area that may suit your needs, and some kennels that may be in the direction of your travel plans. Let us know if we can assist you further.
