The Space:
This traditional log cabin sits on a large piece of land overlooking the Potomac River with plenty of trees and privacy. Plenty of room for the kids to run, family gatherings or a weekend away with friends. Enjoy the large, multi-level deck for grilling or relaxing with a good book. In the evenings, you’ll enjoy roasting s’mores by the fire pit. And, you’ll find on the wall George Washington’s survey of the area with this property included—in addition to mapping much of the area, he also owned property here. Whether you're casting a line, exploring nearby trails, or simply soaking in the views from the deck, our cabin promises a delightful escape where the river is always just a step away.

Beyond the cabin itself, we love how close we are to Berkeley Springs, a 35 minute drive from the cabin and is great for so many reasons. The town of Berkeley Springs has been voted one of the top arts communities in the US, with dozens of shops and restaurants, and even a brewery and winery! Don’t forget to mark your calendars for the annual Paw Paw festival that happens every September.
Please note: Getting here may have you driving over sections of gravel road, and we recommend you bring food and groceries with you since it is a 45-minute drive to the nearest grocery store, the Berkeley Springs Food Lion.
Please note: The stairs leading down to the river are off-limits and unsafe to use. For your safety, we kindly ask that you do not attempt to access them. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
