    This is an amazing place to stay. Our room was cozy, and a great value for the money. We could have had more luxurious digs (we got a queen bed and splurged to get the Jacuzzi bath for $10 extra). It's a beautiful house dating from the early 20th...

    The homemade breakfast was incredible. Everything was made from scratch and they provided a special blend of coffee available only at the Inn. It was like staying overnight in a museum, but being able to enjoy the trappings as if we lived there....

    The Inn is quite historic and beautifully kept with lovely grounds, including a bubbly creek running through them. Barb is a generous and hospitable host and so enjoyable to be with. Her breakfasts are gourmet treats. We come back again and again.

    This is a grand old summer home and it is a treat to get to stay. They don’t make them like this anymore. It’s wonderful that the owners are caring for it and sharing it with the music community and travelers.

Company info

Ken, the son of missionary parents, was born and raised in southern Africa in the counties of Zambia and Zimbabwe, while Barb is from Belarus - coming to the USA in 1999. Hospitality has been a way of life for both of us since early childhood days and we are privileged to continue the traditions of serving guests in this beautiful setting.

Property info

The Inn at Ragged Edge is a boutique Bed and Breakfast, located in south central Pennsylvania, minutes away from two major Civil War battlefields - Gettysburg and Antietam. The mansion was built by rail road barron Colonel Moorehead C. Kennedy as his summer residence. Mr. Kennedy's attention to detail and his pursuit of perfection is evidenced throughout the mahogany paneled great room and exquisitely hand carved chestnut staircase. The rooms are large by any B&B standard and each one is uniquely decorated and comfortably appointed. The surrounding property boasts beautifully tended gardens, large wooded areas, a nature trail and the babbling Conococheague Creek.

Neighborhood info

The Inn at Ragged Edge is close to many things (historical battlefields, museums, colleges, universities, restaurants, antique shops, golfing, skiing, hiking, swimming, camping, concert halls, large cities and shopping malls) yet so close to nature that you can get away from it all and unwind in our quiet, secluded surroundings.
