Mountaintop Views, Hot Tub, Deck, Fire Pit & WiFi

Summary:
Hickory Hill is a secluded chalet cabin tucked away in the gorgeous WV mountains, w/ everything you need for your getaway.

The highlights
- The view! See for miles & enjoy the morning sunrise
- Relax in the outdoor hot tub!
- Grill & relax with a glass of wine on our huge deck
- Hang out & roast s’mores around the fire pit
- Stream movies or take video calls on the fastest WiFi you can get in the mountains
- 20 mins. to whitewater rafting, offroading, canoeing & fishing on the Cacapon River

The Space:
Our mountain-top retreat is packed with amenities and fun for couples, families or small groups of friends.

The cabin includes:
- Outdoor hot tub perfect for relaxing
- Two bedrooms, both with queen beds
- Two full bathrooms
- Spacious deck with a propane grill and stunning views
- Fully-stocked kitchen with major appliances (including microwave, and fridge) and an island – perfect for hanging out while cooking

Between exploring the interior amenities of the cabin and enjoying the wooded, mountainside vista, Hickory Hills is the perfect vacation spot. Our cabin is adjacent to a 37-acre private nature preserve, with plenty of hiking trails and areas to explore.

We often take our three little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly. Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).

Beyond the cabin itself, you’re about 20 minutes away from nearly countless wilderness attractions, including whitewater rafting at Pleasantdale’s Tearcoat Creek, lake swimming at Buffalo Gap Retreat in Capon Bridge, and hunting and fishing within the 400-acre forest of the Edwards Run Wildlife Management Area.
There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. The bathroom has a bathtub and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a spa tub or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Mountain Top peace
We stayed at the chalet for 3 nights, celebrating 60th birthday. Mike loves nature , it was a perfect gift !!! The view couldn't haven't been anymore awesome !! We spent days kyacking and Potomac Train ride. It was great location. The chalet is very clean and super cute !! The only thing was that the huge windows above ,allow the sun to beat inside. Which Made inside super uncomfortable,since the blinds at the top cannot be pulled down To diffuse the sun. Which is a beautiful asset. But not enjoyable when it's a hot inside. Many many communications with someone. The handyman tried to come and pull the blinds down.Which of course didn't work. The end of the story is by the next day at 11 AM.They had brought a floor a/c , which helped. We would stay there again.They tried to be helpful but I think they were aware of the situation beforehand, if you don't mind it warm inside definitely stayhere !! We would stay again,If Beforehand totally confirming that The a /c cooling situation adequate. I wasn't going to write a review and mention inside, just a heads up to ask if overhead blinds fixed. It wouldn't have been fair cause the place is awesome !! The view is Drop dead gorgeous !!

Overnight getaway
Went to celebrate a friends birthday. It was convenient to the Potomac Eagle train ride. Easy to find. The cabin was clean and very comfortable. Had a challenge using the tv but host helped and we enjoyed the movie. It is a small porch but had a great view. I read a comment about someone elses hot water problem but we had plenty. I would have liked to check in earlier but realize cleaning people need time to get it ready. We had multiple texts about checking out timely, I guess some people took advantage and stayed longer than 10am. Overall a great stay.

Relaxing Getaway
We spent a long weekend here and loved the peacefulness. The cabin is very cute (well stocked plus necessary amenities), but the view was absolutely beautiful. The majority of our time was spent on the deck taking in the surroundings. The nearby town also has a nice selection of things to do and places to eat. We would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a quiet weekend.

Brrrrrr
When we arrived there was zero hot water. We spoke to the owner. He apologized but didn’t try to resolve the issue. We had to drive 45 min and pay 20 a day to have warm showers not to mention the gas we had to use . I was extremely disappointed. And then I had to ask for a refund and was only offered 100$ . I will not stay here again. The visit would have been great had we had hot water to shower but it was ice cold so no warm water to wash dishes either so we didn’t use the cabin except to sleep.

Rest and Relaxation Found Here
Overall, we had a great time. On our first morning, we saw our first (of many) deer eating leaves from a tree directly in front of the porch! There were several cute shops in easy driving distance and OMG the pizza place! We ended up eating there 2 nights. The only issues we had were 1) two blinds were hanging over the picture window. Since they were even with the loft/second floor, we could not figure out how to roll them up. This was the ONLY thing that the host wasn't helpful with, and it could be that I wasn't clear in my description of the issue. Overall it wasn't a big deal. 2) While the house was certainly tidy and welll-stocked, it was kinda dirty. For instance, there were items left from a prior traveler in one bathroom drawer, and all the drawers could have benefited from a wipe down. Again, not a big deal. However, I brought my two dogs with us (they loved the mountains!), both of whom are around 10#s. So something that might make a bigger dog sick could actually kill my dogs. This became a real concern when we found a random single pill on the floor in front of the fireplace. In all honesty, I didn't contact the host because there really wasn't anything to do. Once we confirmed that it wasn't a pill that we brought, we threw it away. So I took one star on cleanliness for each issue.

We had a relaxing few days on the side of the mountain in a very comfortable, clean cabin. It rained quite a bit so most of our time was spent in front of the massive picture window looking at a panoramic view of God’s beautiful craftsmanship. How breathtaking. It was so peaceful, no traffic noise or even a peep from a neighbor. l and would highly recommend this quaint cabin. Did I mention the views? Great communication from the owner as well. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely place with us.
