Historic Home within walking distance of Downtown Harmar & Marietta

Welcome to Historic Harmar House, a charming Victorian home that blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. This beautifully preserved property features 2 inviting bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, along with a spacious kitchen, a separate dining room, and a cozy living room. The third floor offers a versatile flex room, perfect as an additional bedroom or a quiet home office. The second floor houses both bedrooms, a full bathroom, and the convenience of an in-home washer and dryer.

Outside, you'll find a large fenced-in backyard, ideal for enjoying the outdoors, gathering around a fire pit, or letting your pups get some fresh air. The home’s prime location is within walking distance of the charming shops and restaurants in downtown Harmar, and just a short drive—or a leisurely 10-minute walk—to the vibrant downtown Marietta. Additionally, a picturesque walking trail along the Muskingum and Ohio rivers offers the perfect opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the area.

My friends and I loved this charming and spacious house in the heart of historic Marietta. Coffee on the porch watching the barges go by was a treat. And good dinning was just a short walk away. A real find!

Victorian home with modernized kitchen and bathrooms

Very Victorian main areas of house. Nicely modernized kitchen and bathrooms. Washer dryer and fully fenced back yard. The kitchen is large but not fully equipped for cooking. Limited pots pans and cookware. Overall a fun place to stay within the popular Harmer area.

Little charm in Marietta

This property is very cute with a gingerbread charm and a lot of character. This place has been redone and has plenty of space for families of all sizes and resides in a great location close to everything Harmar and downtown Marietta. The property owners communicated very well and no issues. We highly recommend this property and hope that others have as great experience as we did for the holidays.

Check in was very easy, kitchen was well equipped and clean, WiFi was easy to access and we had no problems finding the property. It was also well stocked with all necessary items like towels, cleaning supplies, sheets, etc. It is a very old house in the victorian style with original wood floors and decorated in the style of that period. The only thing that keeps it from being a 5 star, in our opinion, is that the yard was in serious need of attention. The charming front porch was overrun with weeds and webs, which we swept down, but the yard needed mowed and the weeks that grow around the porch would take more work than we were willing to do in the heat and on vacation. The owner was very accommodating and friendly.

Overall nice

Old, but comfortable. Could have used a bit more cleaning and a few items could have been fixed, or maintained, and there was nothing in the backyard.... No fire ring, no chairs, no grass. It is close to many good places to eat, so, overall...we enjoyed our stay! The host was helpful and answered our questions promptly. inHost was very helful with our questions.

Shower was too hard and drain backed up every time, hair leaves and mud (we hope) mixing with our shower water into a debris filled mucky stew. Disgusting. We worked on the drain all afternoon the second day finally fixing it. Many lights burned out including the main stairs making them treacherous in the dark.

We were very happy with our stay at the Harmar House. It is rare that a property is nicer than we expected. The owners did an exemplary job restoring the home. The house was clean and spacious. The kitchen was very well-appointed, another rarity. Everything we needed was there. The property was within walking distance to several popular restaurants, the Toy Museum, the Fearing House is right next door, but has limited hours, and a small riverside park where you can watch the sunrise. Downtown Marietta was a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again.

Huge Potential

I can't say enough good things about the communication. Every message I sent received a response within seconds. The house was quaint and clean and the bed very comfortable. There are some major maintenance issues that I have communicated to the host and some minor things (like light bulbs) that just need attention. The house is on a VERY busy street and traffic is frequently quite noisy during the day. I think with some work, this could be a stellar property.
