Maple Lodge Beautiful contemporary home right in the middle of hiker heaven!

This rental home was perfect for our weekend away skiing at Canaan Valley and Timberline. We would definitely stay with the Best of Canaan rental home company again - noting here that you can actually book these homes directly (we didn't catch this!) versus paying a service fee on VRBO.This home had everything we needed including a fully stocked kitchen and lots of towels! There is room for improvement at the rental including replacing the mattresses and pillows in all of the bedrooms. They were outdated and all guests did not sleep well each night due to the old mattresses. Additionally, around there the hot tub there are nail heads that are coming out of the boards. I strongly recommend a facility manager hammer those heads back down for the safety of guests walking barefoot around the hot tub area.

This was a very clean, well equipped, and comfortable property. Close to so many beautiful hikes. Really enjoyed out stay and hope to be back again.

We had a wonderful time. The house is lovely and well equipped with the essentials. There is no lack of things to do in the area if you love the outdoors. We're already planning our next visit.

Gas cooking means a lot to this family chef and the kitchen was well stocked - could use a better cheese grater, lol. The furniture was comfortable with the exception of a presumably vintage rocking chair that nobody in their right mind wants to sit in (perhaps a child?) and the fact that instead of an additional recliner in the living room, which is needed, there is just an ottoman. Three can sit in a line on the couch and one in the recliner - but at times we had 5 people and the seating proved somewhat inadequate. The king (master) bed was very comfortable; the queen upstairs not so - very creaky, taco situation. But for the overall scenery and comforts of home, we give high marks. Books, games, a wealth of DVDs for movie watching. Wonderful windows, easy to operate. Bathrooms are fine, if not updated. Great new washer & dryer. The hot tub was nice, but oy, the cover for it is an exercise in awkward maneuvering to store it someplace, pretty awful. Woods End is a splendid neighborhood that is easy to access on gravel roads off the main. Front steps to the house are steep, wooden. We vacationed in summer and enjoyed mostly empty surroundings. We could hook up our husky to the bike and ride out from the house, and take leisurely walks. The Mountain Owl convenience store and ice cream shop is a short walk with terrific ice cream and super friendly servers.

My brothers and their families enjoyed the coziness of this home. It was a great place for them to be when they needed some time away from the hubbub of the bigger house we rented. Everything was adequate for the needs they had for the days they were there.

Great house ! Perfect for 4 adults and one infant. We greatly enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need. The hot tub was awesome but we could have used more intructions on how it worked. Will return for more skiing next year !

The location was convenient for access to Timberline Mountain and area restaurants and shops. The property manager was friendly and accommodating.

The beds and sofa were comfortable and the kids loved the air hockey table. The location of the air hockey table does make watching anything hard, but that’s what closed captioning is for. The house about a 2-minute drive to Tline or just over a half mile walk. After unpacking the car, we took bags to the different rooms and discovered the one bedroom did not have a bunk bed with a double bed in it. Instead it was two twin beds, so instead of sleeping 8, the current setup sleeps 7. Thankfully, we brought a blowup mattress so my son did have a place to sleep. The kids were excited for the hot tub but unfortunately, it was not working. I called the maintenance phone number to leave a message, but even though it was a holiday, they answered. I told them about the problem and maintenance was out there to fix it the next day. The fixed lasted through the night, but by morning, it was broken again. I called again to let them know and maintenance was out there to fix the problem that day. Upon returning from the slopes, we had a functioning hot tub.Two days into the ski trip, the skies opened and it poured on us. We went to use the gas dryer and no matter what setting we tried, it wouldn’t get hot. I called the maintenance line again to let them know and fortunately, the appliance guy was in the valley that day. He stopped by while we were skiing and upon our return, the dryer did get warm. That lasted 2 cycles and then we couldn’t get the dryer to work. I called the maintenance line again and they told us what setting the maintenance guy used but we couldn’t get it to work. We stopped trying and hung clothing everywhere to get them to dry. Overall, we enjoyed the house and I would stay here again. Best of Canaan was great to deal with and I would book through them again in the future.
