My wife and I came here to celebrate our anniversary. It was such a peaceful getaway. We had everything we needed to cook ourselves som great meals and to enjoy each other's company. We really loved playing the classic arcade games and really enjoyed all of the fun things that were available within the cabin.
This was our third stay at Retreiver’s Retreat and it was once again a great experience. Everything was clean and as advertised. Our family enjoyed the new deck, firepit, grounds, and games. Thanks for another great visit!
We really enjoyed our stay. Accommodations were very comfortable and clean. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend Retrievers Retreat to family and friends.
We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. I was super impressed with how clean the cabin was for being in the woods(I know how critters like to make/find homes in the winter). Great for families. Kids had a blast playing the video games and having their own space. Plenty of games to play too. The cabin had everything we needed and then some. The shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion in the bathroom was an added bonus. Cabin was warm and cozy for the winter weekend we stayed. We were even lucky enough to see deer in the back yard including an albino deer. This was a wonderful vacation rental that we hope to return to.
We had a great visit and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The location was perfect for visits to Cacapon State Park and Berkeley Springs, although if you just want to hang out and relax, the cabin had everything you need for that. Would definitely book again!
Great property, great location, abd lots of fun to be had in just the cabin.

Hi Christopher, thank you! We're so glad you enjoyed the cabin and its location. It’s great to hear you had fun just staying in—hope to host you again soon!
This cabin was clean and supplied everything that was needed! The kitchen was stocked and the bathroom supplied shampoo, conditioner, soap and bath towels. The beds were very comfortable! Our dogs loved running in the backyard and us humans enjoyed laying in the hammocks! I would stay here again!
The house is beautifully situated with a wonderful porch, fun game room and comfortable beds.

Why they chose this property
On our first visit to Berkeley Springs, we were immediately drawn to the town’s charm, natural beauty, and slower pace of life. When we discovered a cabin near Cacapon State Park, we knew it was something special. It had “good bones” but needed love — and we could see the potential.
Over the next year, we carefully renovated what is now Retriever’s Retreat, creating a peaceful escape from our busy lives in the DC area. What we love most about this neighborhood is its quiet wooded setting, proximity to hiking and outdoor adventures, and the easy drive into town for spas, restaurants, and local shops.
As pet lovers ourselves, it was important to us to create a truly pet-friendly space where families (and their four-legged members) can relax, recharge, and reconnect. We hope your time here gives you that same sense of calm and togetherness that made us fall in love with Berkeley Springs in the first place.
What makes this property unique
We designed Retriever’s Retreat to feel less like a rental — and more like your own private getaway in the woods.
-- Elevated Comfort
We believe details matter. You’ll enjoy high-end bed linens, plush bathrobes, fully made beds, bidet toilets, and thoughtful touches throughout the home. We provide quality toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, soap), plenty of towels (two per guest), and all the essentials so you can pack light and relax immediately.
-- Thoughtful Tech & Entertainment
Stay connected with superfast WiFi throughout the cabin. Unwind with Smart TVs in every main living space (Roku with Sling TV, Netflix, and Hulu), PS4 gaming, a Nintendo Wii, full-size arcade games, and more — perfect for both kids and adults.
-- A Kitchen You’ll Actually Want to Use
The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, both Keurig and drip coffee options, and a wine refrigerator stocked with 90+ point wines ($25 per bottle). Whether you're cooking a full dinner or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, everything you need is ready.
-- Outdoor Living at Its Best
Surrounded by nature, you can enjoy evenings by the fire pit, grill with multiple propane tanks ready to go, relax around the propane fire feature, or unwind on the deck overlooking the private wooded yard.
-- Flexibility & Insider Access
When available, we offer complimentary early check-in (as early as 10 AM) and late check-out (as late as 8 PM), because we know flexibility makes travel better. You’ll also receive our curated digital guide to Berkeley Springs, filled with favorite restaurants, spa recommendations, hiking spots, day trips, must-see attractions, and local events.
We strive to make every stay seamless, comfortable, and memorable. From luxury details to practical conveniences, everything has been designed with care.
