Primitive Cozy Tiny Cabin with Starlink internet
Experience True Glamping at The Red Roof Cabin
Escape the noise and reconnect with nature at this secluded mountain retreat. Nestled on 7 private wooded acres, the Red Roof Cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic simplicity and modern comfort.
Stay connected in the wilderness with Starlink internet, ideal for streaming, remote work, or simply staying in touch while surrounded by peace and quiet.
Water
There is no running water on the property, so you’ll need to bring your own water to fill the two provided 5-gallon jugs. These connect to the sink and instant hot water heater for washing and cooking. If you run low, you can refill your jugs for free at the natural spring in Berkeley Springs—a local favorite spot just a short drive away.
Firewood
We keep firewood available right on-site:
$15 per bag — for use in the indoor woodstove.
$30 per wheelbarrow load — for the outdoor fire pit (kept dry and covered).
Please do not bring outside firewood, as transporting wood can introduce invasive pests. You’re welcome, however, to burn fallen branches or wood already on the ground around the property—just no cutting down live trees.
Gated Driveway
A gated entrance ensures your privacy and peace of mind. You’ll receive the lock combination upon booking so you can come and go freely while keeping the property secure.
Composting Toilet
The cabin features a clean, eco-friendly composting toilet, designed for simple and sustainable use:
The urine (“pee”) bucket should be emptied nightly.
After each use, turn the side handle to aid the composting process. It’s part of the cabin’s off-grid charm and helps preserve the land’s natural beauty.
Cozy Woodstove
The woodstove is the heart of the cabin. Once lit, it warms the space quickly—usually within about an hour. It’s the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring or stargazing.
Power & Connectivity
Even deep in the woods, you’ll have full electrical power—the cabin is now connected to the grid. A battery backup handles short outages, and a generator is available for extended ones (just message if needed).
Sleeping Arrangements
The cabin sleeps up to five guests comfortably:
Full bed in one loft
Twin bed in the opposite loft
Fold-out full bed in the main living area
A single ladder provides access to both lofts—it’s sturdy yet easy to move. Linens are provided for all guests.
Cooking & Essentials
While there’s no traditional shower, you’ll have a sink, instant hot water, and washcloths for a simple mountain-style refresh. The kitchen area includes:
A propane camping stove with pots and pans
Refrigerator, microwave, and Smart TV (Netflix, Prime, YouTube)
DVD player for cozy movie nights
It’s all you need for an off-grid experience without giving up the comforts of home.
Nature & Stargazing
Explore your own slice of wild Appalachia—rocky woodlands, seasonal streams, and endless skies. With no city lights for miles, the stargazing here is nothing short of breathtaking. Whether it’s a quiet night by the fire or a moonlit walk under the trees, this is where time slows down and peace takes over.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace and a coffee maker.

Nice little place to relax in the woods. Immediate and courteous communication from owners. Starlink keeps you connected while enjoying the off grid experience. Perfect camping spot a short drive from Berkeley Springs.

Cozy weekend retreat
We had a great stay at this cabin. When we had trouble getting in, Austin was easily reachable and answered right away, and also reached out ahead of time to let us know that there had been an issue with the water system. The cabin is very clean, has electric, a butane-fueled burner for cooking, and lots of pillows and blankets provided. There are also a couple of small trails off the property through the woods. Thanks for sharing this great spot! Take care driving in in the winter if you do not have 4WD.

Remote getaway
We came after a snowstorm (Jan 2025), and actually got stuck on a nearby road! However, Austin has helpful neighbors and made sure to check in on us and make sure we were okay. He is good at responding to messages and the place was lovely. I knew it was small, but imo it feels a bit bigger in person. The outdoor swing was also nice to lie in and look up at the sky (or leaves in summer I guess?). I would definitely come here again!

A Nice Little Break Away
Staying at Austin's cabin was just what the doctor ordered. Arrival was a bit delayed due to no cell reception and the gate code not being provided prior to arrival. Once we drove back down the road a bit for a smidge of cell reception, we were able to reach Austin and get the code. The property upon entrance was nice, secluded, and peaceful. Plenty of room inside for 2-4 people and plenty more outside to explore. The fire pit and gas grill were nive bonuses and satellite tv although more used for ambiant noise, was a nice perk. I will definitely come back again and hopefully soon!
