The next time you visit the Harpers Ferry area, take a short drive over to Shepherdstown - the oldest town in the state of West Virginia, nestled in the lower Shenandoah Valley and the home of Shepherd University founded in 1871. Shepherdstown is only 90 minutes from the Washington/Baltimore metropolitan area but miles away from the stress and rushed lifestyle of the city. Browse the many quaint little shops that line German Street. And for a special treat stop by the Shepherdstown Sweet Shop for a little something special. Located at 100 West German Street - you'll feel like a kid in a candy shoppe!
Dave and I always stopped by for a great cup of coffee or a piece of cake or a donut or a cupcake or a fruit-filled tart. Local papers line the wide windowsills along with information on concerts and other local happenings. They have a large selection of local area wines and lots of other treats, too!
