It was a very unique property that was rustic on the outside and a comfortable cottage on the inside. The owners were concerned for your enjoyment during the stay but not overbearing. Definitely will return here.

Very cute, shabby-chic style rooms with a small kitchenette. The owners made sure our breakfast was to our liking and the quiche was delicious. It was easy to find and convenient to Harpers Ferry historic area.

Wonderful stay! Host went above & beyond to provide breakfast groceries and quiche, which were very appreciated. Such a cozy, sweet spot in Harpers Ferry. Will definitely be back!

This was my second stay at Lily Garden Bed and Breakfast, and it was another great visit. Lovely, cosy, and charming, in a fantastic location — just an easy walk into Harpers Ferry centre. The property has convenient off-road parking, which is a real bonus. I especially enjoy the breakfast setup, with a few items thoughtfully provided for the duration of your stay. Quaint, comfortable, and welcoming, I would highly recommend this B&B and would happily return again next time I am in the area.

Wonderful location in the heart of this beautiful historic village. Clean, cozy room and private guest parking. If you're wondering how quiet/private this place is, longtime Harpers Ferry tour guide friends got lost trying to find it to meet me! The variety and generosity of breakfast options were a delightful surprise. Perfect blend of contactless privacy and supportive, personalized hospitality. Would stay again.

Property was great for a quick weekend trip. Shawn and Nancy were super responsive to any questions we had. Quick 10 minute walk to Harper's Ferry area, and Bolivar as well.

We spent 4 nights at the Lily Garden and loved it. The property is absolutely charming and full of character as is this part of Harpers Ferry. Breakfast was DIY which suited us fine and we were supplied with all the food we could wish for including a quiche which did us for supper on two nights. Our host was very attentive and eager to assist. A lovely stay, highly recommended!

Enjoyed our stay here. Good locations to restaurants in Bolivar and historic Harper’s ferry (uphill on the way back). The host supplied a nice breakfast and asked for choices in advance. The house is a rustic and getting up to the loft area is interesting. Downstairs bed was better than the one in the loft.

Nice quiet location that is walkable to the main part of town. Breakfast was easy and convenient. The property is charming and rustic. We really enjoyed our stay.

The place was perfect and situated about 4 fifths of a miles from the heart of Historic Harpers Ferry. Breakfast was good.Bolivar Heights, Antietam and Gettysburg battlefields are all within an hours drive for Civil War history buffs.

What a beautiful experience. The suite was very nice, clean and comfortable. The owner reached out to offer his help in locating hiking trails and for whatever I needed. I didn’t take him up on the offer but it was greatly appreciated. I’d recommend anyone visiting the area to stay there.

The owners are the sweetest. Easy communication and great breakfast options included!

Did not get an email on where to park BUT when I called, Nancy was quick to return my call and explain parking. It is also not a true bed and breakfast as breakfast is dropped off the day before you arrive and you need to cook/ heat it up yourself. It felt more like an Air BnB. The room itself was clean and it was very cozy. The pond and sitting area outback was lovely. We would totally go back!

The facility is quite small, even for 2 adults. There were ants on the counters. The provided breakfast was wonderful and plentiful. Nicely decorated.

These folks are very good communicators and the location is great. The property itself is rather run down and the front steps are certainly not up to code. Very tight inside. Okay for younger travelers but not for older folks.

Lily Garden Bed & Breakfast was lovely! Breakfast was delicious, decor was amazing, and the property was safe, quiet, and clean. This is the perfect place to stay when visiting Harpers Ferry. Only about 10 minutes walk from the main part of the historic district. The host was absolutely wonderful, communicative, and friendly.

This was our 2nd time staying, and the area is excellent, the rooms are perfect for a small group of people who enjoy antique style and cottage esque houses. Not to mention the service is always awesome. it snowed about 6 inches and the owner came out and shoveled during and after the storm as well as kept up with salting. Over all great time

Cozy, quiet, private stay. Hosts were communicative and very helpful. Would recommend!

I enjoyed the rustic experience of being in a barn. The barn had lots of wooden paneling. The little pond and chairs outside were nice to sit and read. Most importantly, the location was close to hiking trails and restaurant. The owner was very quick to respond to texts and offer recommendations.

Lily's Garden was a great place to spend a few days of peace and quiet. The Trundle suite is cozy but had everything we needed. The Trundle suite is the lower level but we had no issues with noise from the upstairs unit. Lily's is out the top of the hill in Harper's Ferry. There is a sidewalk to town for access the restaurants. Shawn was very responsive to our questions and provided us with lots of options for dinner and activities.

A lovely bed and breakfast, with all the creature comforts we needed. Harpers Ferry is a lovely place and this is a lovely place to enjoy it.

I stayed in the Trundle suite which was very comfortable. Full sized refrigerator and generous breakfast portions. Had everything I needed and a great location in walking distance to Old Town Harpers Ferry, Bolivar, Bolivar Bakery, Kelly's Farm Kitchen, and The Barn.

The Lily Garden B&B has a literal lily pond garden right behind the repurposed barn which encloses the actual rooms. The Carriage House room which we rented was great - bigger than a hotel room with lots of local flavor, but was also clean and functional. Owners live next door and are responsive to needs. Local area has very few restaurants or grocery stores, but the proprietors provide some food for free included in the price of the room. It was a welcome amenity. Overall, it was a very convenient location at a good price point!

A beautiful suite with convenient access to Harpers Ferry! Accommodating owners who really want you to enjoy your time there.
- 5/5
really lovely place to stay, i loved the contactless check in and out. the room and kitchen where decorated beautifully and clean, had everything one would need. also it’s just up the hill from the town and trails, so a lovely walk. the only thing i would ask would be a deadbolt on the front door for added safety as the bottom lock isn’t for locking. but over all would highly recommend

This was a very fun old barn to stay in! Loved the area, the house and the breakfast provided! Highly recommend

We stayed in the upstairs apartment in the Carriage House. It was really quaint and cozy. Everything was clean, the hosts were thoughtful,had everything set up for, and were easy to communicate with even as they respected our privacy. Lovely place to chill in the evening, and if you're looking to see Harper's Ferry and/or hike the many trails in the area, you can't beat the location. Would gladly stay again.

Great for a quick weekend away
- 5/5
What a great, cozy place to stay in Harper's Ferry. Our suite was spacious with a very practical kitchen. The hotel staff took our breakfast order and had it waiting in the room for us when we arrived. The yard has a nice swing which we used in the evening. This place is walking distance from Harper's Ferry lower town; however, walking back is uphill so take that into consideration if you're walking into the history area. I would recommend this place to friends and would definitely stay there again.

We booked our 4 night stay 6 months in advance for a wedding. The property was not as reviewed-manager stated it was shabby chic. Shoddy workmanship, worn linens-towels & sheets & basically converted old garage. Very apologetic that check-in info not sent as promised, so no way to enter property-after 20 mins waiting in car on dark, cold night with light rain & prolonged travel from Europe finally given access. No full length mirror, no closet or hangers for 3 hooks on wall & cramped with old furniture and hardly any space to move around. Food left in fridge as promised was only positive feature of this property. Price way too much for what was provided. They did offer a future free stay, but as we live on west coast and we’re only here for wedding not realistic! Would not have booked this if reviews had been realistic!!!

Staying at Lily Garden was the highlight of out trip to Harpers Ferry! The suite was very well equipped, super cozy and breakfast was delicious! The perfect place to relax after hiking the hills around the area.

Lovely lily pond to have coffee by or enjoy the sunset. Close to lower Harpers Ferry for restaurants. Loved it!
- 4/5
Great space and location (about 0.5 miles from lower historic HF, easy access to Appalachian trail, quiet (no train horns), other sights). The carriage suite was very comfortable; we really liked the bed. The suite comes with a full kitchen which is great, if you plan to stay for a few days. The outdoor space was also nice with a relaxing pond right in front of the porch. My only two recommendations: include a regular coffee maker/grinder and hot breakfast option - we read that they used to have a local restaurant deliver hot breakfast, which would’ve been a nice option.

We stayed in the Trundle Suite. Absolutely adorable! The only slight inconvenience was the heating. A space heater is provided but I have a quirky attitude towards space heaters. That’s a me issue!

The owners communicated with us early on and, because of the pandemic restrictions, they provided us with the ingredients to make our own breakfast. The suite (really, an incredibly comfortable one bedroom apartment with a second bed on a loft atop a sturdy iron ladder suitable for kids) had an extremely well equipped kitchen, so we made our own breakfasts in the morning. The sitting area was large with a separate dining area--I've been a guest at a friend's apartment which was smaller. And the bedroom was the darkest I have ever experienced in my life; dark rooms used for developing film don't come darker. All in all it was an amazing property, one we will definitely return to if we ever go by Harpers Ferry again.

My wife and I loved our stay here! The regularly scheduled breakfast delivery to our suite was an awesome free perk, and for the one morning when that wasn’t an option, Shawn, who is a great B&B host, prepared and delivered a custom-made breakfast the night before. The carriage house suite itself is lovely with eclectic old-fashioned decorations and is well-equipped with a full kitchen. The place is also easily walkable to Jefferson Rock and the main tourist sites in town. We’d stay here again!

A different experience. We didn't speak to a single person on the property during our 2 night stay. Breakfast is served by a diner a mile down the road that you can have delivered or go to to eat. We decided to eat at the diner. Food was good, room was nice.

Great stay at lily Garden. We loved everything about the carriage house, especially the bed, very comfortable. All the little extras from the assortment of coffee to the delicious breakfast. Will definitely stay here again if we are ever back in the area and will surely recommend it to all our friends.

This is a great place to stay! Shawn is very attentive, helpful & polite. We had a delicious breakfast delivered every morning. If you sit out back during the evening you can enjoy the sound of the fountain at the little pond! There was a bullfrog there when we visited which made the experience even more relaxing. I definitely would not hesitate to plan another visit:-)

We enjoyed our stay at Lily Garden Bed & Breakfast. It was exactly what we expected and more. Quaint accommodation within walking distance to Lower Harpers Ferry, dining, shops and hiking. Delicious breakfast delivered each morning. It was very cozy with everything we needed. Shawn was friendly and able to offer suggestions to activities and restaurants. We would definitely stay again.
