A Great Stay
We’ve been annually vacationing at cabins or properties in the mountains or country for 6 years now, and this definitely was our favorite yet. It was an easy drive, without crazy steep winding mountain roads. The house was clean, modern, very tech,. And it’s the first place we didn’t need a WiFi password for beside our regular phone serve came in fine there

Well Appointed & High Tech
The cabin was very well appointed. All linens were provided, as well as plenty of spare cleaning products for dishes and laundry. The interior of the cabin was beautiful and well laid out. Unfortunately we had mainly rain while in town, so the technology played a large part for us. The town of Berkely Springs is 20 minutes away and is fantastic! With or without kids along, this is a great place to stay!

I enjoyed every peaceful moment I was there! Living near, and working in a big city is loud and stressful. This was just what the Dr. ordered! Beautiful home in a beautiful setting with great amenities. Loved the lower level deck and propane fire pit that was ready to use! My older dog had a few problems traversing the steps but he loved being there as well!!! Already booked another stay!

Everything you need
I have stayed at several VRBOs that stated they had everything you need, but still needed, paper products, soap, sometimes bedding. This cabin really did have everything you needed down to the shampoo. The bedding was amazing. It was such a cozy cabin and a perfect weekend get away.

Uncleaned
The day I checked in I noticed that there was used towels in the bathroom, all of the beds either had the sheets thrown on the ground or looked like someone just slept in them. I messaged the host who seemed slightly unconcerned. Apparently they forgot to clean the cabin. They did send out a housekeeper the following morning but it interrupted our stay as even after we got back from the park she was still there cleaning. Safety wise, the sliding door leading out back had a broken lock. There was a piece of wood preventing the door from being able to slide fully open but being a female staying alone with my dog it was very concerning.

Great Stay
We had a great two night stay to break up a road trip to the coast. Very private location with lots of nice modern touches in the cabin itself. It was rainy for our stay so we couldn’t use the yard much altho the steepness may have limited it’s use either way. Very clean with great communication with easy check-in via the owner.

REALLY NICE cabin
We enjoyed our stay very much at Retrievers Retreat! 2 senior adults and our very small dog, Bailey. Cabin is well kept and not too far into the woods although it is up on the mountain. Liked the condiments in the cabinets, coffee and powdered creamer, teas provided, although we did not use them. A nice wine fridge too! The bed we used on the main floor was very comfortable, and we liked the lighted mirror above the bathroom sink, shower has body wash, shampoo and conditioner in hanging bottles. Hand and Body lotion bottles in the bathroom too! Sheets, pillowcases, towels provided. There is an upstairs loft bedroom, and basement beds and a game room and a lower patio deck. We enjoyed the main porch deck in the back watching all the deer on the property. I could go on..... but I'll just say this much more, we would highly recommend this cabin! Claudio answered my questions in a very timely manner and politely, (thank you!) We would definitely return!

This accommodation was perfect for adults with teens or children. The teens were more than happy to have their own space and would have been happy to stay in the cabin for the entire trip! We enjoyed swimming at nearby Cacapon and visiting Berkeley Springs. The cabin was clean, up-to-date, well stocked, and very comfortable. Loved seeing the deer each day!

Why they chose this property

On our first visit to Berkeley Springs, we were drawn to the character and charm that the town offers, and we soon found ourselves in the office of a local realtor ready to make an offer on a cabin near Cacapon State Park. The cabin had “good bones” but had been neglected by the previous owners. We spent the next year renovating “Retriever’s Retreat” (https://www.vrbo.com/130256) and making it into our haven from our hectic schedules and pace of life in DC.

As pet lovers, we are pleased to be able to share our pet-friendly homes with your family, and we hope that your time in Berkeley Springs offers you a chance to enjoy the company of family and good friends.
