Lovely secluded property close to Dolly Sods, US Wildlife areas, Monongahela National Forest, Seneca Rocks and many other trails. The owners, Chip and Laurie were perfect hosts. The GarageMahal had all the things needed for a home away from home. If you need to get away to refuel this is an awesome quiet location. Highly recommended.

This was a beautiful cabin and the location was perfect. Easy communication with owners and spoke with them in person a couple times. Would highly recommend for anyone going to the area of Davis WV. Cabin was furnished with everything you need and was spotless! Our Dogs also loved the large yard and secluded area and many dog friendly hiking trails nearby.

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. Very clean and homey. There's a great fire pit area out back. Sadly, we did not get to use it because it was VERY windy this weekend. The kitchen has everything you could ever need. Close to Blackwater Falls State Park and Canaan Valley everythingChip was very responsive and helpful when i called him about a minor issue with the stove and we had a nice chat with him on our way out. The best part was being able to take our Golden Retriever with us. We look forward to staying here again in the future!We look forw

A slice of Almost Heaven

The property is amazing. It is the perfect cabin for a small family. The cabin is surrounded by beautiful hiking trails. The inside was immaculate and stocked with everything we needed for the week. They even include a sofa cover if you are bringing your doggy. Perfect location for activities in Canaan, Davis, Thomas, Spruce Knob….Chip and Laurie respond to messages quickly. Our child became very ill the night before check out and Laurie was understanding and compassionate that we could not complete the check out list. We definitely plan to return. Thank you Chip and Laurie for sharing your slice of Almost Heaven with us.

Amazing location!

We stayed here for a weekend in March with our kids (5 & 8) and had a blast. It's a great spot with lots of land to explore. We found some really cool waterfalls behind the house in the woods. The snow season was over so we missed XC skiing but we definitely will be back. Close to Blackwater Falls park and the town of Davis.
