But the best part is that the cottage is directly next to a small, private lake – shared with only one other neighbor. We love listening to the frogs croaking in the springtime. And we’ve caught lots of fish – mostly bass and bluegills – so bring your poles and see if you’ll catch a few! We even have two kayaks you're welcome to use and paddle around the lake.
(A Few Things of Note: the water level of the lake has been very low this year. You're still welcome to take the kayaks out, but just know it may be a little shallow. On occasion, our well water can produce a sulfur smell. Don't worry, this is normal and common with wells in rural areas and perfectly safe. And while the property is on a wooded lot with lots of privacy near the pond and fire pit, there is a neighbor across the street and the driveway and front yard area is in view of the road.)
We often take our two little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly.
Beyond the cottage itself, we love how close to everything we are -- particularly Great Cacapon State Park and Berkeley Springs, both only 15 minutes away. The park is free to enter and has miles of hiking trails, a beach and small lake, golf course, horse stables, and a clay shooting range. And the town of Berkeley Springs has been voted one of the top arts communities in the US; the shopping, spa, and restaurant scene does not disappoint!
This was our first time visiting Berkeley Springs and it did not disappoint. It was the perfect holiday getaway for my family and we truly enjoyed our stay. The host was always available for questions and suggestions for the area and we had a great time. Can't wait to go back!!
Perfect fire pit and relaxing cabin in the woods
Ok, can be cleaner
Total disappointment. The place was rundown and dirty. The pond was littered with trash. The hot tub is situated in the front of the yard with no privacy. We paid for three nights, but left after 15 min. I cannot imagine anyone giving this place a positive review in good faith. By the way, this is the first time I’ve ever written a review of a vacation rental—that’s how bad this place was.
Beautiful location and property. Also GREAT recommendations on local restaurants. Thank you for hosting us
Pros: convenient to Berkeley Springs and the trails in the state parks, property manager was very responsive, nice fire pit with plenty of chairs, great screened in porch, hot tub, bed was firm yet comfortable with a memory foam topper, and pretty good price for this area. Cons: water pressure in shower was fairly weak though I imagine this is partly a function of well water; the pond out back was pretty to look at from the porch but I wouldn’t want to take a kayak in because of the snapping turtles we saw nesting there (those things can take off a toe/finger!)
A nice place. The host had a perfect blend of letting us know he was there to help without being intrusive. The screened in porch and access to pond with Kayaks was wonderful. Kitchen was right size for us but might be a bit small for larger gatherings. Close enough to Berkley springs to provide for needs but far enough away to achieve the relaxing time we had. Although we did not partake (this time) there are some nice nature hikes close by also.
The cabin was everything we needed. It was private, clean, easy check in process. Nice hot tub. The owner texted us to see if we needed anything. He gave us recommendations for local pizza places.
I really enjoyed spending time at this cabin, with my partner and dog. We enjoyed the barbecue, deck, and the cabin was very clean.
Enjoyed our stay at Tony's cabin. Thanks very much for hosting. The place was clean, and we loved the decor. Would stay again.
A few little quirks but all in all a nice place to stay. The screen porch was nice to sit out on to get some quiet time.
