We really enjoyed our stay here.The house is much larger than it seems. We loved the cozy fireplace and the sight of deer outside our window every morning. The proximity to Canaan Valley was a great advantage. We highly recommend this place!

This is our second stay here. Great place and great location. If you like to cook, and we do, the kitchen is pretty well stocked. The house is very dog friendly. The fireplace is wonderful. We will definitely return. Tip- get firewood from Shop and Save (larger, dry pieces) versus end of the road stand (very small pieces that are wet and moldy).

Dream Vacation!

Wonderful place. The location is ideal. Walking distance to both the nice little town of Thomas one way down a river path and water falls the other direction. Easy drive to Blackwater Falls and everything else this hiker's paradise has to offer. Would definitely come back here again.

What a great home! We stayed for a week. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow when we arrived. The road was plowed, covered with a dusting, but had no issue getting to the house. The owners were very accommodating and very helpful. The house is fully stocked and furnished (dishes, pots, pans, towels, silverware, blankets, pillows, etc.) The property was amazing! Very serene and peaceful. You could hear the creek nearby. We ventured all over the property. Very close to Blackwater Falls state park - where we spent most of our time. Thank you for being so accommodating and providing a very peaceful vacation!
The home from the road
Roadway/Driveway - park close to the steps in the winter so that the plow driver can turn around.

Perfect getaway

This space was the absolute perfect place for our family to get away to and unwind. The location is peaceful and easy to find - and so conveniently located to the shops in Thomas. Having a space that also thoughtfully considers what’s necessary to be “dog friendly” was another huge perk.We absolutely will be back!
