The Space:

Crisp mountain air, and quiet forest mornings set the tone as you arrive at this secluded chalet tucked along a private road in Gerrardstown. Inside, tall windows frame the woods beyond, filling the space with soft light, while evenings invite you to slow down and settle into the calm rhythm of the mountains. After a day outdoors, steam rises from the hot tub as the forest grows still around you.



The space

This loft-style chalet cabin offers a comfortable, easygoing layout designed for couples, families, or a small group of friends. The living area feels open and welcoming, anchored by large east-facing windows that bring the surrounding forest indoors. A TV with Roku makes it simple to unwind with your favorite shows, and the WiFi is fast enough for streaming or staying connected while you’re away.



Sleeping arrangements

The cabin features two bedrooms, each furnished with a queen bed. Bed linens, extra pillows, and blankets are provided, making it easy to stay cozy during cooler mountain nights.



Kitchen and dining

A full kitchen allows you to prepare meals at your own pace, whether it’s a quiet breakfast before a hike or a relaxed dinner back at the cabin. The space is equipped for everyday cooking and connects naturally to the main living area, keeping everyone together.



Outdoor living

Step outside onto the spacious deck to enjoy the wooded setting that surrounds the cabin. The BBQ grill is ready for casual meals, and the private hot tub offers a peaceful way to warm up after exploring nearby trails. The private backyard provides open space to relax, though it is not fully fenced. A collection of outdoor yard games is available for both kids and adults. Free parking on premises is available.



Work and comfort

For those mixing work with rest, there is a dedicated workspace located in a separate room with a door, offering privacy when you need it. Heating keeps the cabin comfortable throughout the colder months, and window AC is available.



Location

Forest Haven sits within easy driving distance of some of the area’s most popular destinations. Berkeley Springs offers shops and restaurants, Harpers Ferry draws visitors with river rafting and Civil War history, and Winchester, about 30 minutes away, is home to a wide variety of dining, breweries, and wineries. Numerous hiking trails nearby make it easy to enjoy the surrounding landscape year-round.



Perfect for

This pet-friendly cabin is well suited for couples seeking a quiet retreat, families looking to unplug together, or friends wanting a relaxed mountain base with room to unwind.



Note

We have an indoor fireplace, but unfortunately it’s currently broken and is only decorative.



Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but due to the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or similar—especially during certain seasons. We appreciate your understanding as nature tends to leave its mark, no matter how often we tidy up!



We often take our three little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly. Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).

Returning home to VA

Just an overnight stay. On our way back home from northern New York. The place was nice. It is peaceful sitting on the deck. The check in process was a little tedious with various emails and downloads required. The Backstep is a little sketchy. Be careful walking in. Overall the place was nice

beautiful treetop setting

The property was immaculate with new furnishings. I was able to access the house an hour early on the day of arrival, thanks to great communication from owner. He checked in to make sure I didn't have any questions later that day. I booked the property for some peace and quiet and it certainly met my expectations. Stairs to loft room, where TV is located, are quite steep but my 10-year old dog and I got used to it.

Serene beauty

Words cannot express the experience we had at this beautiful cabin. They just would not do it justice, but I am going to try. Driving to the cabin, in the neighborhood, you feel a sense of serenity and peace. The neighborhood seems like a family place. Full of love and joy. Ample parking is provided at the cabin. The excitement amplified as we see a fire pit and what our view will be from the porch. We open the door to an absolutely clean and fresh smelling cabin. We arrived at dusk, which made our view out the large windows even more beautiful than the pictures on the site portrayed. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed every second of our time in the cabin. We went grocery shopping at the food lion 14 min away, and just had a perfectly quiet retreat in the home. My two complaints, I couldn’t stay longer…and I couldn’t find a pen to sign the guest book. I am almost wary of writing a good review… because soon enough I won’t be able to afford to come back again. We are already planning our return trip with our kids and fur babies.

Beautiful Cabin in the woods

The house has been newly furnished and looks out over wooded valley. You're far enough away from everyone else, but it's a quick 15 minute ride to the Food Lion. Only limitation: the TV is in the bedroom in the loft.

About the host

Host profile image

I live in DC with my wife and three young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.

Why they chose this property

We spent years searching for the perfect getaway, and wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We fell in love with the area – and Forest Haven in particular. We love how cute and cozy our cabin is, and all the fun outdoor activities we can enjoy year-round. :)
