The Inn

Over the years we had often discussed the idea of owning a B&B near a Civil War site. After moving to Maryland in 2006, we fell in love with Sharpsburg and the Antietam National Battlefield. Our idea became reality in February of 2015 with the purchase of the Inn.

Before becoming innkeepers of this historic Antietam B&B, Chris worked as a defense contractor after retiring from the United States Army. He holds a master’s degree in Military History, volunteers as a Battlefield Ambassador and is a licensed Battlefield Guide at Antietam. Amy is a nurse, you’ll find her in the kitchen trying new recipes, outside taking care of the gardens, or in the Mercantile.

Chris and Amy both hail from the small town of Benton in Columbia County, Pennsylvania. They are the proud parents of two Eagle Scouts – Joshua, who is a graduate of Arizona State University, and Jacob, who serves in the United States Navy.

Adding to the friendly atmosphere is a pair of “fur babies”, a Shih Tzu named Maya and a black Cockapoo named Liberty ~ we call her Libby. Maya and Libby spend most of their time in the owner’s quarters or the kitchen. They are always excited to greet our guests and love extra attention.
