We rented this "log cabin with stone fireplace" to surprise my mom for her 75th birthday. The pictures don't really show off the large size of the rooms. This home had the best equipped kitchen we have ever rented. I cook a lot and our plan was hanging at the house so that was important to me. We even baked homemade cookies! This was truly a home to just bring a suitcase. Having the firewood ready to go meant a cozy fire as soon as we got in. The owner was extremely pleasant to deal with and had even left some holiday decorations up which made it extra welcoming. The listing description was "spot on" for the entire property. We will definitely rent again but for longer than just a weekend!

Everything that "Charlene O." I agree with and add: Beautiful home and setting! Light, bright, clean, cozy, and still a touch of elegance. We were 8 (4 couples) getting away for a w/e of golfing, relaxing, shopping, dining and everyone loved the place. All fun! We could have just stayed at the chalet and been happy. We would all be together without feeling crowded, as the living space (kitchen,dining and great rooms were open). The loft was great for morning coffee or some quiet few moments to relax before turning in for the night. Beds were also comfy. All in all "we done good!" and hope to come back. Thanks, Steve! You have a great place.

Owner response:Thanks for coming, am glad you had a great time and THANKS for leaving the place nice and tidy :-)

We had a wonderful weekend in this beautiful, well equipped log cabin chalet! The listing description is completely accurate and the house was very clean and well maintained. We had a very rainy weekend, but enjoyed staying inside as the owners thought of everything you could possibly need. There were 5 of us and we still had plenty of room to be indoors. The scenery is beautiful and very relaxing. I would highly recommend this place to families or a group of friends looking to just get away. The owner was quick to respond and was very courteous. We are planning to come back next year for another getaway! Thanks for a lovely weekend........ Girls from OH & VA

This place is awesome! Seven "around 60ish" girlfriends went for three nights. The chalet is so spacious, it rained two of the nights but we didn't even care, there was so much room to move around in. It is immaculate and has everything you need for a great time. We went into Berkeley Springs and had $40.50 massages with 15 minutes in the Roman Baths, a great zen experience. You will love staying here!

Owner response:Am glad you had a good time and were able to relax in spite of the rainy weather :-(

Fantastic family get-together at Ridge View Chalet!

We had a great time with family at this beautiful chalet. The house is very well-equipped, and it's got a perfect location halfway between Cacapon State Park and the lovely town of Berkeley Springs. We had 7 people in all, and we had plenty of space to spread out. The pool table/ping pong table was used every night for fun tournaments. The outdoor spaces are wonderful, and we used the gas grill for every dinner. It was useful to have speedy Wifi access since several of us had to check email for work during our stay. The house was very clean, it's in a quiet location surrounded by woods, and we saw deer out the living room windows several times. The owner was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with. We would definitely come back, and we'd recommend the chalet to anyone who wants a mix of outdoor activities, spa treatments in Berkeley Springs, or just to chill out and get away from it all. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Wonderful Escape!

Beautiful, spacious and spotless! We had a wonderful time in this lovely home. My two young boys loved exploring the woods behind the house, playing pool downstairs and fishing at nearby Cacapon State Park. Berkeley Springs is close by and offers a number of activities but we enjoyed eating out on the deck and playing hours of Monopoly the most--and dessert at Temptations!

Owner response:We are glad you had a great time, enjoyed the area and property, hope to see you again!

My wife and I spent four days at the chalet over memorial day. It is just wonderful beyond words. The chalet has every conceivable thing for total relaxation and comfort. The owners obviously considered every aspect that one would need for a wonderful time. It is really a thing of beauty and we had a super time including the nearby golf course. Would definitely recomend and we can't wait to return!!

Great hideaway!

Super great house tucked away in the woods and off the beaten path. Was an adventure getting there but the house is so worth it. Lots of space for our girls scrapbooking weekend and even better to have the large tv in the living room with comfy couches. House well taken care of and very clean. Everything we needed and just a few minutes to town. We took advantage of the house information book and tried a restaurant in town. Having the internet was great especially since we were so far in the woods. Owner was super easy to communicate with and accepts credit cards!! We will be returning in the fall!

Wow! What a wonderful place to stay and relax. We have been vacationing in berkeley springs for over 30 years and this is by far the best place we have stayed at. Big bedrooms with plenty of space. The pooltable and nintendo games were a huge hit for us. Quite setting and very peacful.Only a 5 minute drive to the bowling alley was nice. We are already planning are next trip there in the summer.
