Dog Friendly Cabin in the Woods, Hot Tub & Firepit
Peaceful cabin getaway in the woods near Oakland. Unwind in the private hot tub, cozy up by the stone fireplace, or explore nearby state parks. This serene retreat comfortably sleeps 6 guests and is perfect for families or friends looking to unplug and relax. Features a fully equipped kitchen, fire pit, and stunning woodland views.
Step into your private woodland retreat, where rustic charm meets modern comfort. The main living area welcomes you with a soaring spiral staircase and a beautiful wood-burning stone fireplace. Settle in on the cozy couch to watch a movie on the Roku TV, or choose from our collection of board games and books for a quiet night in.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook up a delicious meal, including a coffee bar to start your mornings right.
Sleeping Arrangements (Sleeps 6):
* Main Level Bedroom 1: King Bed
* Main Level Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
* Upstairs Loft Bedroom (up spiral staircase): Two Twin Beds
Each bedroom features blackout curtains and a ceiling fan to ensure a cool and restful night's sleep.
Embrace the outdoors without leaving the property. Sip your morning coffee on one of two porches with rocking chairs. The back deck features a dining table for six and your own private hot tub that comfortably seats four adults. In the evening, gather around the fire pit for s'mores or relax in the hammock for a perfect afternoon nap.
You will be a short ride to most attractions:
* 4 miles (about 10 minutes) into downtown Oakland
* 14 miles (about 20 minutes) to Deep Creek State Park
* 12 miles ( about 20 minutes) to Swallow Falls State Park
* 9 miles ( about 18 minutes) to Herrington Manor State Park
* 7 miles ( about 10 minutes) from the White Barn wedding venue
* 14 miles (about 25 minutes) to Wisp ski resort
Many great restaurants are within a short drive.
You will have private access to the entire house and its surrounding acre and a half of woods. The garage is the only area unavailable to guests.
We give our guests complete privacy to enjoy their retreat. We are available via the app if you have any questions or need assistance during your stay.
To ensure you have a wonderful stay, please keep the following in mind:
**No Air Conditioning:** We embrace the cool mountain air to keep the house comfortable. Windows can be opened in the evening, and we provide fans for warmer summer days.
**Woodland Setting:** Our home is nestled in nature, and on rare occasions, a curious critter from the outdoors might find its way inside. We work diligently to keep the house sealed and comfortable for your stay.
**Pet Policy:** An additional cleaning fee of $200 will be applied if excessive cleaning is required due to pets.

About the host
Hosted by Carol Shepherd
I grew up in California, but have been in Maryland for over 20 years. I currently live near Annapolis, but love coming up to Oakland to "get away" from the hustle and bustle of my busy life.
Why they chose this property
I love the quiet and the stillness of Pleasant Valley. Something about being in a rural environment brings me peace. I hope to share that with you.
What makes this property unique
The wood and stone features in the house give it a rustic feel. I hope a stay at my place will take you away from the stresses and demands of everyday life.
