The location was perfect, it was nice and quite. The house was very cute and small. It had everything we needed. The location was pretty close to a few cute small towns. It was perfect for a weekend getaway

Comfy & cozy spot in the woods! We were only here for a short stay but absolute enjoyed the surrounding area as well as getting back to a nice fire pit and jacuzzi!

My husband and I found Tony's cabin and booked it as a last minute getaway! Easy check in and Tony had great communication! When we walked into the cabin, it smelled AMAZING! The living area was pretty small. (Just a friendly suggestion to add more cozy blankets and even an ottoman to make the space more comfy!) Upstairs bedroom was super spacious. Kitchen had nice dishes and pans. Plan to bring things like plastic wrap, tin foil, sandwich bags, and olive oil/ seasonings. Also, an extra kitchen towel and rag would have been nice to have too. Bathroom was okay, nothing fancy...small shower and a couple unfinished wall patches.
Overall, it was a nice and peaceful weekend away. We loved being able to grill on the porch and can't forget about the hot tub! Such a bonus to this little cabin! Thanks for hosting us Tony!

I loved staying at this cute little cabin. The hot tub is such a nice touch especially the time of year when we stayed. The cabin is so cute and was just perfect for the 2 of us, but could still fit up to 4. The whole upstairs is one bedroom and so nice and spacious. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook and the gas stove is so nice. The gravel driveway is a little tough to get up when it’s been raining but it’s so worth it for the view from the porch. We loved our stay and would definitely stay with Tony again.

“Get away from it all” might be an overused phrase, however, that’s exactly what I was looking for, and precisely what Tony and the Blue Maple Team delivered (insert appreciative round of applause here).
The property was exactly as featured, all pertinent information / instructions accurate, and the surprises were positive ones (as in Tony did not mention that it was an excellent location for stargazing….from the hot tub).
The area should also appeal to hikers, mountain bikers, nature lovers, rock hounds, photographers and bird watchers (just to name a few).
BYOBWFTM: bring your own books, wine, firewood, telescope & marshmallows.

We had a big weekend celebration for our anniversary and our puppy’s 2yr birthday…the property was perfect for why we were looking for!
Secluded but not completely away from convenient places like grocery, shopping, dining, etc…about 15-20min drive. The entrance is tight and steep, so be mindful of that.
Loved all of the amenities and space (inside and out); the covered porch, hot tub (which was already hot when we arrived!!!!), plenty of cook wear, plenty of space for our puppy to roam round. We had a bit of a wifi issue and Tony was so responsive and helped resolved the issue quickly. We will definitely be returning!

Tony was very accommodating and responded to texts quickly. The place was a nice escape for the wife and I. We’d originally plan to bring our dogs but got a sitter last minute. However, we’d have felt very comfortable having then there. Great place to relax in the hot tub and take in the view next to a roaring fire. Even got to use the grill and road trip to DC. We highly recommend this place!

We overall enjoyed our stay at this cabin, good for $. Used all amenities listed from outdoor games, indoor games (connect 4, mad libs, uno), the smart tv, fire pit, and hot tub.
I expected a lot of seclusion but We did have ONLY one close neighbor against the back yard which repeatedly encouraged her dog to “go shart missy” every night. Loved the hot tub, used it frequently, clean.
The cabin is very quaint with an awkward but cozy layout.
When he says he doesn’t provide much in the kitchen, prepare for a lot of grocery shopping (we forgot Saran Wrap, foil, and Tupperware, fire starter). Local eateries were not the best, so we ate in.
We have one issue-bed sheets upstairs were NOT clean. The cleaner came when we left, then just dropped fresh sheets (not including pillow cases) on the couch instead of actually changing the bedding which was still upsetting. But we got them. Also, there were some holes & no closet rods, which the host was aware of.
Overall, peaceful & responsive host.

Great place for a getaway! Very private but felt just like home. Be prepared for a semi steep ride, not too bad though. I did just fine getting up with nissan kicks! About 15 min from a food lion. House fully furnished so we were able to cook using food we brought with us. Definitely cozy! Would visit again.

My wife and I stayed from Friday to Monday. The cottage was very nice, and it was in a peaceful and quiet area. The nearest grocery store was 20mins away, which we loved because we were trying to get away and disconnect. A plus was that we were able to bring our fur baby with us. There was a hot tub as advertised and a fire pit outside with chairs. The rooms were clean and the linings were fresh. Everything in the kitchen is brand new and worked very well. We were given an instructions manual on what the house features, places to eat etc.
There were only 2 cons. One was the bath tub had some hair in it. We cleaned it, but it should’ve been cleaned. And our second issue was that the electric baseboard heat didn’t work. It wasn’t noted on the listing, we found out after we booked and read the instructions manual. There were space heaters everywhere. My concern was leaving my fur baby in the home with a space heater on. Other than those two things, the stay was great. We enjoyed our stay

Beautiful views! We appreciated the private location and hot tub. Driving up the steep, rocky driveway was a little intimidating, but our sedan made it. The baseboard heat wasn't operational because the cabin needs some electrical work, but we stayed warm with the many (provided) space heaters.

Very clean cabin. Fully stocked. Tony was very friendly and helpful. The cabin is pretty near another cabin with only a fence separating the hot tub from the neighboring cabin, not totally ideal if you like privacy and distance. Other than that it's a nice little place!

We greatly enjoyed our stay here! The area is beautiful and it’s a quick drive to any shopping or anything you’d need. We were visiting Harpers Ferry and it was a super easy drive over each day.
We brought our golden retriever puppy and there was plenty of room to have her crate and private outdoor space to bring her outside.
The cabin was clean and had almost everything we needed. You may want to bring extra blankets if you’re coming in the winter! And bring extra towels if you’re going to use the hot tub.
Also, the driveway is a little steep and is gravel (as to be expected in a mountain town), but just to keep in mind if you have a low vehicle or if there’s a potential for bad weather.

In an effort to be 100% transparent about this stay, let me start off by saying if you don’t like bugs, this place is not for you. There are bugs in all stages of life all over this cabin (it’s nestled in the mountains so there shouldn’t be a surprise there). That being said, the stay is 100% worth it. The sunset view between the trees was beautiful. The house is comfy and clean. It seems a little “thrown together” in some aspects but that doesn’t change my feelings on it. The hot tub after a long day of walking around is so so relaxing. The bed was comfortable and everything was up to date. Any questions I had I was able to get answered in the house guide I was sent by Tony, who was very responsive when I needed something. The price was great and I would absolutely stay here again if the chance came up!

Beautiful place up on a hill. Had all the equipment in the kitchen you needed. Hot tub was great

The house was beautiful, clean and very homey. Everything was left out for us, clear instructions, amazing views and definitely worth what you pay for. Only thing that we weren’t told about was the driveways hill is pretty steep, if you have a truck you can get up relatively easy but still a little difficult to get up. And the hot tub jets weren’t working how they were supposed to. Other than that it was the perfect vacation.

Tony was the most response and helpful host we’ve ever had. We enjoyed our stay, but had some issues along the way. We received stained towels from the cleaning company and the drain in the bathroom sink was unusable. The cabin was not as clean as we expected either. Tony was responsive about these issues to get them resolved as soon as possible.

We had a nice time! The hot tub was really great and the beds were very comfortable, and the location is absolutely lovely in the woods. It's quiet and peaceful, perfect for a getaway. We had a great time going to Harper's Ferry and Winchester for day trips, and enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub in the evenings. The house is a bit spartan when it comes to kitchen supplies, so be sure to bring any spices or other condiments you may want, and consider bringing your own pool towels for the hot tub- otherwise you'll be all set! Our host, Tony, could not be nicer or more responsive- when we requested more towels he reached out to the cleaner and got us some more right away. In addition, he made great recommendations for things to do in the area and was always a pleasure to work with. Hope to stay with Tony again!

If you are looking for a quiet getaway with a spectacular view, this is the place to be. The house was comfortable for our family. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, plates and cups. The evening views were stunning and it was nice to sit on the porch and take in the view. We had a nice time hiking and taking in nature. The host was very proactive and checked in with us several times throughout our trip. I would love to stay here again in the future!

Loved the place! Super clean and accurate. The only thing that wasn’t accurate was the indoor fireplace. Not sure if that was something they are planning to put in and haven’t yet. Great, quiet view while you are soaking in the hot tub. Had all kitchen essentials and bathroom essentials. This is at the top of a very steep hill though, I would not recommend it with snow on the ground if you don’t have a 4x4 vehicle. Overall would stay again!

My boyfriend and I were looking for a peaceful, relaxing trip in the mountains to recharge. We could not have picked a better location! The house is perfect for a couple. We really enjoyed our time in the hot tub, and watched the sun set over the mountains every evening. Tony’s place was very quiet, all you can hear are the birds and animals rustling through the woods. Tony was easy to contact through the Airbnb app or text. He was quick to answer questions and give recommendations. We definitely would love to stay here again in the future!

The house was perfect for our family of four. Everything in the house is beautifully arranged and the view is spectacular. We were able to see the sun set into the mountains, that's something you rarely get to see nowadays! Staying in this house for a few days really helped us reconnect with nature. We enjoyed drinking tea by the fireplace at night and relaxing in the hot tub. The kids were so excited to see a neighborhood cat, Taco, come here and there. The host was accommodating and kind to us. Personally, I think Tony is one of the best host I have had so far! We made a lot of memories from here and definitely would come again if we could.

I came back home as relaxed as possible thanks to Tony and his cottage! The cottage was perfect for a couples getaway. We didn’t leave the area whatsoever, we enjoyed the place as a whole. Tony exceeded my expectations towards communication. We felt like we were staying at a friends place 🙂

My husband and I enjoyed our peaceful stay. We were looking for serenity, and that's what we got. There were a few hiccups, but Tony compensated us for it, and it all worked out. We left relaxed and satisfied. Thanks Tony for the hospitality.

We absolutely loved this stay for a weekend getaway. The house is up in the hills and offers great views, especially at sunset and dusk. The porch and hot tub take advantage of the beautiful scenery. The house itself is lovely. The living area is a little tight, but upstairs is very spacious and was plenty of space for 2-4 people. The brand new kitchen was a big plus for us! Tony provided us with all the information we could need about the house, things to do, places to eat, and suggestions on how to make the most of our time at the rental. He's very communicative and was so easy to work with.
Few things to note: the Food Lion has moved down the street from where it's listed on Maps. Firewood can be purchased at the gas stations. There's a friendly neighborhood cat named Taco who occasionally peeks around the house. He keeps his distance, but seemed very nice!

My boyfriend and I were both experiencing burnout at work, and knew we needed to get out in the woods (we like to camp, backpack, etc.). I’ve grown up my entire life in WV, and had never heard of Gerrardstown. I’m so glad I came across this listing!! The sunset view from the hot tub was AMAZING, the BnB was very well-kept, and Tony was extremely prompt in answering my questions. We very well may come back here if it’s not booked up already! Perfect weekend getaway for any outdoorsy type.
