Beautiful Snowy Weekend

The first snow of the season made the weekend extra special. Warm fire, hike in the woods and we topped it off with a soak in the hot tub while it was snowing! FABULOUS! The view is beautiful, the kitchen is well equipped and there are plenty of puzzles, board games, a pool table, basketball, and more. The home is clean and well cared for. It was our 2nd year to stay in this lovely location and no doubt we will be there next fall too. The owner is helpful, accommodating and prompt in returning the deposit. 8 of us enjoyed this great place for a girls’ weekend away. There is plenty of room and big tables inside and out that easily seated all of us! Thank you so much for another GREAT weekend!
Owner response:With each passing year, the home glows even more through all of the good times it's witnessed. We were there over Thanksgiving with family and I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else. The home may be too comfortable, the long weekends are not enough to enjoy its atmosphere. We are routinely updated things and think its important that a guest's stay be better than they'd expected. Thanks - Greg & Susie

My family stayed at the cabin in October and I cannot recommend it highly enough. There was something for everyone - from my 7 year old sister to my 28 year old husband to my 57 year old father! The girls in the group loved the hot tub and the boys spent hours on the lake and in the basement game room. The house literally had everything you could ever need and the owner was so helpful. We couldn't get the hot water started up our first day there and so we called the owner who talked us through it over the phone which was really appreciated it. The area is so peaceful and the house and lake are stunning - it was a perfect choice and we'd definitely use it again.

Unbeatable Place for a Getaway

Review Submitted: 10/06/11
A bunch of us guys needed a little bit of a vacation before summer was over. I cannot imagine a better place. I've stayed in a couple dozen rentals over the years and this is certainly the nicest--and a great bargain. It had everything we needed and forgot (like bug spray) and some things we didn't know we needed (like all the boats). The pictures can't show how spacious and well-appointed the house is. Nice architecture and unique! There ended up being only 6 of us, and there was more than enough room for everyone. We had a great time paddling on the lake, lazing in the hot tub, grilling, and playing ALL the games in the game room. The big flat screen in the great room was also nice for Sunday football. The sleeper chairs are the best! Not to mention that the owner, Greg, went the extra mile to make our stay enjoyable. Thanks! I'd recommend this rental to anyone, and I hope to come back myself.

Our stay at Greg & Susie's log home was outstanding. The home had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed swimming, relaxing on floats and kayaking in the lake. We took a nature walk around the lake on the surrounding trail. Took a few road trips to Berkley Springs and Harper's Ferry (great shops and restaurants). Also make a trip to the Ice Creamery in the town of Hedgesville, yum! Would definitely rent again!

This is a fabulous house! They provide the sheets and towels and you don't have to wash them before you leave! That made it the BEST vacation ever! It is so peaceful. Bliss was hot tubing and kayaking on the pond! Just heavenly! Very comfortable house, lots to do from board games to pool and air hockey. Fully stocked kitchen with all the cooking untensils. Personal space for all 8 of us!

We had three families, each with children, stay here for one week and we had such a great time! As others have said, the pictures really do not do this property justice- it is impeccably decorated and the views of lake are phenomenal! Even though we could all be together, we all had separate spaces to get away, when needed. The owners were wonderful when we had any questions and were always just a phone call away. We loved kayaking and fishing, but we were all a bit shy when it came to swimming, as we saw a snake and a few snapping turtles. We saw several families swimming during our stay, however, and one lady swam the length of the lake most days we were there! We would not hestitate to recommend this rental to other families needing a secluded, quiet getaway with plenty of space for everyone!

I have to agree with every positive comment made so far. My family "survived" just fine w/o internet (there are wifi hotspots in Berkley Springs if you simply cannot stand being "off the grid") and our phones worked. The pics on the website, while they are impressive, really do not do the cabin justice. The level of quality furnishings and comfortable bedding is tops, and the whole place was clean and tidy upon arrival. If I were to build my own retreat, I would use Greg & Susie's Sleepy Hollow home as a model and probably wouldn't change a thing! I am already planning my next family visit (we live about an hour away) as well as a girl's weekend. It really is the best place to "get away from it all" but still want for nothing. Just pack a swimsuit, comfy clothes and stock up on snacks and libations on your way out (there is a grocery store and liquor store in Hedgesville on the way to the cabin from 81), and you're set! The best surprise was the closet full of toys for my 4 1/2-yr-old son. He thought Christmas came early when he found all of the Legos & trains! Greg & Susie, you should be quite proud of this home, and thank you for offering it to appreciative families like us. We shall return!
Owner response:Thanks Tiffany - We aim high because we want people to have a wonderful visit. We want every guest's experience to be high quality and indelible - Greg

Stayed here for our annual family golf trip because of its proximity to The Woods and surrounding golf courses. All we needed was our clubs and some food. The house had every other amenity you needed to feel at home. Golfed in the morning and then enjoyed fishing off the private dock, kayaking in the private lake, playing pool in the huge game room or just relaxed on the back deck while enjoying the view. This is a great alternative to booking a rental house directly through The Woods Resort.
