"Beautiful sky views and thoroughly cleaned, a must to do for a relaxing stay." - Super Guest
Guest Access:
The entire home and access to the 26 acres of nature is included in this rental so make yourself at home.
PLEASE NOTE: To get to the Nest, guests will need to walk down a gravel/mulch path that is on a slight decline...incline on the way back up. If you are only stable walking on flat surfaces, it may be difficult to get to and from the Nest.
PLEASE NOTE that we have a 2nd home on the property that is also available to rent called Ridgeview. There may be guests there during your stay. The Nest is about fifty feet down the path from the main house. They are far enough apart and oriented in such a way that privacy for all is maintained. The Nest rear deck is partially visible from areas of the main house. If for whatever reason guests at Ridgeview are making your stay anything less than peaceful, please contact us and we will see to it that they respect your quiet enjoyment of the property.
There is also plenty of dedicated parking for each home, including an EV charging station for each home.
The Neighborhood:
This stunning property is in Berkeley Springs, WV, in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains. It is a charming small town known for its natural beauty, historic appeal, and soothing mineral springs. Often called "America's First Spa," it has been a destination for relaxation and rejuvenation since colonial times, with its healing waters drawing visitors for centuries. The town's centerpiece, Berkeley Springs State Park, still offers the same natural mineral baths George Washington once enjoyed himself.
Known by many as “The Austin of the East”, Berkeley Springs boasts a vibrant arts scene with numerous galleries, antique shops, and local craft stores. Explore the Museum of the Berkeley Springs to dive into the town's rich history, or take a scenic hike through Cacapon State Park, where breathtaking mountain views and outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, and golfing await.
Food lovers can indulge in farm-to-table dining at cozy local restaurants, while weekends bring lively festivals and events celebrating everything from apples to local art.
Berkeley Springs offers the perfect blend of relaxation, culture, and outdoor adventure.
Here are some attractions you will be looking to visit during your stay.

***Distance times are calculated if travelling by car.
Getting Around:
Unless you own a helicopter, I recommend getting around by car or preferably SUV. The last ½ mile or so are on a single-lane gravel road. In the winter, AWD is highly recommended. The home is beautiful in the snow, but getting there through the snow without AWD is not.
