4/5 found this review helpful

My husband and I just returned from a wonderful stay with Joanne and Paul. Our room, The General's Quarters, was perfect. It was the original Summer Kitchen that has been converted to a fabulous suite with every amenity you could want including wireless internet, TV/VCR/DVD, refrigerator among many more. The bathroom was spacious and elegant. And the bed was extremely comfortable. The hosts were so informative about the history of the area. We highly recommend this inn. It's perfect for a Civil War history buff, a romantic getaway, or a family vacation. It's a destination in itself, although there is so much to do in the area. And the breakast was not only attractive but delicous. We will be back!!!!

“An inn not to be missed!”

Jacob Rohrbach Inn

8/9 found this review helpful

Hands down, one of the best B&B's we have ever stayed at! Not just because of the wonderfully appointed room we stayed in (General's Quarters), or the delicious breakfasts that were served each morning, or the interesting history of the inn and close proximity to interesting sights and activities.........well, that had a lot to do with it. But it was mainly the warm and inviting spirit of the inn keepers, Joanne and Paul. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in through the door. They were extremely knowledgeable and helpful when it came to finding a suitable restaurant or sorting out daily activities (renting the inn's bikes for a tour of the battlefield!). And, they really know how to make guests feel welcome at their breakfast table. We hope to return to see more of the area and visit the Jacob Rohrbach Inn again.

“the General's Quarters”

Jacob Rohrbach Inn

7 Jun 2006
3/3 found this review helpful

My friend and I had the good fortune to be the second guests in the "General's Quarters." It is a former Summer kitchen onto which a room recently was added. The room is spacious, well built and beautifully appointed. Very comfortable accommodations including quiet and efficient air conditioning. It has a wonderful porch where we sat and enjoyed the beautiful landscaping at the Inn and the atmosphere of Sharpsburg.
Breakfast is unmatched for variety of foods and presentation. We will certainly return to this Inn to enjoy the surroundings and hospitality of the Innkeepers. It is indeed worth the cost.
The Inn is a perfect place to stay while exploring the all of the historical aspects of Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland.

One of the very best B&B's we've ever stayed in. Our hostess went out of her way to provide maps and information for our bike ride on the battlefield. Breakfast was indeed elegantly presented around the dining room table of what seemed like a gathering of old friends. Clean, comfortable and cozy wrapped in rich Civil War history.

“Wonderful hostess, wonderful B&B”

Jacob Rohrbach Inn

5 Aug 2005
2/2 found this review helpful

I thought I had written my review right after our stay, but I can't find it, so I must not have done it. But this great B&B deserves every good comment, so here I am, late.
A lovely place for sure, lots of privacy with all the amenities you could want. But what makes it so special is Joanne, the hostess. From the moment you arrive she greets you like a friend she hasn't seen in a long while, with a warmth that is so sincere you never feel she is just doing her job.
She has a special knack for making all the guests feel like they've known each other for years. Five minutes at the breakfast table and everyone is gabbing away like friends gathered for a meal before visiting the battlefield.
She is a marvelous cook, too! Eager to answer questions, offer suggestions.
Not for a moment did we experience that awkwardness one can feel sometimes as a stranger in someone's home.
We stayed in the Clara Barton room. The next time we will book earlier and try to get a room with a larger bed.
And there will be a next time.
