House was great and location on the water is peaceful and lovely . It was a bit of Fall in the air - would have been great if there was any wood for the fire circles, or pellet stove worked, or info for the front porch fire table! Guessing it was due to start of a new season.Thanks for a nice getaway.

What a great property to spend a weekend celebrating my daughter’s 30th birthday weekend. She wanted a quiet weekend away with friends to spend time playing games, watching movies, Sharing meals and relaxing.

Winter wonderland by the river

We enjoyed our stay at Heron's Rest. The home was convenient for our visits to Great Cacapon State Park, Berkeley Springs Brewery, Cacapon Mountain Brewery, Cold Run Winery and various antique stores. The enclosed porch was a wonderful place to watch the snowfall. It was impeccably clean and a restful, quiet retreat.

Had a wonderful stay!

We loved this property in Great Cacapon, WV! The house was well kept and clean. Location was gorgeous. Best part of our trip was to be able to walk to the river, hammock out front and being able to relax in their beautiful backyard.
