  so pretty and very relaxing, the humming birds even decided to come out. Thank you for the stay we all had a great time. The steak house on the mountain was pretty good. Your place was just what we wanted.

  best spring break yet, the family loved your place. We were concerned we would not have enough space but your house was perfect. Our 78 year old Dad loved sitting by the fire place. so much fun cant wait to return.

  we had a great time, your place is wonderful. Loved the fireplace out back and the pool table. The kids loved running around the fields. Just wish it was warmer outside so we could have enjoyed some of the hiking around.

  I don't know if they allow honest reviews to stay on the website, but just in case, I am writing the review I wish I had read. First of all, the owner does not accept credit cards as stated, so if you were thinking you would be able to use or earn travel points on a card, that is not the case. Add a per pet fee and cleaning fee to the posted rate, and you are dropping significant money on this cabin- even at the "off season" rate. I would not recommend this cabin for the price, mostly because the sulfuric smell from the water is not in any way mild. We were gagging on what seemed like raw sewerage odor our entire stay- and we grew up on well water, so it's not like we're just spoiled city people. Taking a shower creates a long lasting unpleasantness throughout the house and giving your kids a bath actually seems to make them dirtier. Cooking with the water is a horrible idea. It put worse than a damper on what was supposed to be a great family get away and the owner was not interested in offering any kind of partial refund. If you're looking to enjoy the attractions in Berkeley Springs, the town looked like it was full of rental properties and you should skip the long and twisty mountain road to this one. If you're interested in being down the mountain beyond cell phone range, I would pick one with a well that's in better shape.

  Owner response: I am so sorry that these renters never once called us during their stay but waited until their return to emailed us telling us about the odor. (We have returned from our weekend at your river house and I wanted to say thanks for the use of your place. I hope your cleaning crew found everything to be in good order after we left. We had a nice time but really struggled with the water. I assume it must be worse than usual.) We went right away to investigate the smell. We were very concerned because renters have been using it all spring with no complaints. The well checked out fine within the normal range (but we treated it again) so we went looking for another cause. We found two very large squirrels had gotten into the flue of our wood burning stove and died, thus causing the horrific odor. Had we been called we could have discovered this and taken care of the odor problem. On the site it states about the cleaning fee and the additional pet fee if you would like to bring your dogs. We are very sorry that these renters did not enjoy their stay visiting Berkley springs, the area has great things to see and do. Berkley springs is known for its springs and bath house, the massages are also very good. Hiking is great, the Paw Paw tunnel is a great hike and to get your blood pumping morel hike up and over the tunnel! We ask all are renters to please call if there is something that they feel needs to be a dressed, we are very close and are more than happy to come assist. In Feb. a rented called to tell us that someone had removed a smoke detector, we were there within the hour with a new smoke detector in hand. We are very reachable and want your vacation to be enjoyable. Please let us know if we can answer any questions.

  your cabin is a true "get away" It was very relaxing and I am so happy that there is no cell service. It made for a real unplugged weekend!!!! We had such a great time with our friends hiking and just relaxing. We love the back patio and fire place. The DVDs was a great throw back surprise! We had a great time and will keep your place on our list!

  This was our first time renting through VRBO, thank you for making this such a great experience. The house was great and accommodated our group just perfect. We loved the deck especially at night watching the stars! The pool table was a big hit as well. Over all we had a terrific time.

  We had soooo much fun staying here, the river was a great place to be and hang out. It was great to sit outside at night and roast marshmallows. The patio is such a relaxing place. Our Dad loved to sit on the deck at night and watch the stars, perfect place to star gaze amazing! We are a family of 3 generations and it worked out so well everyone had a great time. thanks we will be back!

  we had a great time even though it was the hottest week so far this year. Your house was perfect. Love the small town feel but so close to activities. The a/c works very well. The kids love swimming in the river and we even did some fishing. Eddies tires in town is a great place to pick up tubes for the river. I thought I would miss using the internet but it is great to unplug! The deer were great fun to watch come down the mountain every night. The paw-paw tunnel is a great hike, thanks for a great family week.

  We had a wonderful stay! Beautiful location with an outdoor common area that allows you to enjoy a warm fire and wonderful atmosphere. Plenty of room for all of us and a comfy, at home feel. We will definitely be back! Things to remember: No Cell Service - what so ever, water turns silver jewelry brown and lastly it is nearly impossible to keep the insects out. Other than those few things, we really enjoyed ourselves =)

  We just returned from a weekend at this house. We enjoyed grilling out in the yard and watching the deer pass by the house pretty much all day long. The house is less cabin and more home and the kitchen has everything you could want. Playing ping pong and relaxing on the deck in the evening were our two favorite activities. The water access is a short 5 minute walk. I recomend wearing water shoes as some of the rocks on the bottom of the river are quite sharp. Everything was just as described and we had a great trip. My dog loved running around the field and sniffing out turtles deer and frogs.
