    Sunrise from our mountain retreat
    Jenna D.

    Stayed from a few days after Christmas until a few days after New Year's Eve. We rented a house on the mountain from Mountainside. The accommodations were perfect for our family of nine. Walking through the resort was enjoyable. It can be done on the roads or on trails. There are not many trails; however, the roads were not busy and people drive slowly We had massages which were wonderful. The masseuse did a great job and the cost was good. Big recommendation for Evelyne. We did not get down to the restaurant but will try and eat there next time. We ate in our rental for every meal. (The food Lion in town was more than adequate for provisions.) One downside- pool was "out of order". It is a nice pool and would have been nice to enjoy before massages.

    This is the restaurant inside the Coolfont Resort. Recently reopened in 2019. I didn't grab any photos of dinner with the exception of the huge pretzel. Menu pricing was on the higher end but portions were huge. Smash burger, shrimp, and the Calamari were all excellent. Calamari said "fresh" on the menu and I looked at my wife and rolled my eyes. I was pleasantly surprised as they were some of the tenderest ones I've had in quite awhile. Breakfast was awesome. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and the pancakes were amazing. I don't have them often. They were super fluffy and had the right amount of vanilla.

    I had looked over the online menu prior to making the hours drive. Osso Bucco was on the list of entrees so I decided to go simply for that. Arrived to find a nice clean restaurant with a decent view of a quaint lake. Restaurant is decorated in a rustic woodsy theme. They were offering a specialty Margarita for $12.00. I asked how many ounces it was which the waitress couldn't answer. I had her bring me the glass that they served it in before I placed an order for one. GLAD I DID! No Margarita glasses available but instead was being served in a 12 ounce draft beer glass. Ordered an appetizer of calamari which was described as a five star preparation. OMG I could only eat one piece. The absolute worst I have ever had so I sent it back. This was frozen rings over battered, and over deep fried. (STRIKE ONE) Next I ordered what I had driven an hour for, the Osso Bucco. SORRY, I SOLD THE ONLY ONE WE HAD LAST NIGHT! (STRIKE TWO) So I was forced to try something else. I thought the Marinated Pork Ribeye looked good as described. 8 oz grilled pork ribeye on a bed of Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes, caramelized onions, and Demi Sauce. Served with vegetable du jour. (STRIKE THREE). The Yukon Gold Potatoes were very poor tasting very white instant potatoes of some sort. The onions were simple sautéed no where near being caramelized. No Demi Glaze Sauce at all. The vegetable was asparagus and again the worst I have ever eaten. Hard and crunchy and nearly unable to cut. I ate two pieces before I decided it wasn't worth getting sick over. No bread was served until I asked for it. My wife had The entrée of chicken cordon bleu. Again a frozen product prepared by someone who didn't know what they were doing. She took two bites and could stomach anymore. On the other hand, the salads were nothing special but acceptable and the ice tea had a good flavor. The waitress was exceptional, she heard my complaints and visually inspected the food concurring with my dissatisfaction. A trip for $70.00 in the restaurant. I have read good reviews but my experience was dreadful! I cannot recommend that anyone try it but only to avoid it.

    What's left of the Calamari!

    The Coolfont Resort harkens back to an age of motor coach vacations to escape the pollution of city life, a place to rest and relax in the Mountains of WV. Vestiges of this bygone era still remain and Coolfont is an example of how they are beginning to transform themselves to meet the needs of the present day. The investment continues. Within Coolfont is the Treetops restaurant. A bight and open eatery that is a cross between a sports bar (TVs and bar) and a family dining room. The food is good including the Berkeley Springs Food Week specials (Jan) and a wide variety of other menu items and a great list of beers on tap. We had the fish and chips, meatloaf dinner and pasta and shrimp dinners. The calamari was fresh and enjoyable. Service was good with a nice local charm.

    This is a gem in the making. Tucked away on the mountainside near Berkeley springs, this quaint lodge is secluded and convenient. We have a two room accessible suite that is scrupulously clean, laminate floors making moving with a walker safe and easy, the step in shower is spacious and the shower chair thoughtful. The room is austere and roomy, perfect when navigating with a walker or wheelchair. The road to the venue reminded me of home (the hills of Pittsburgh) hilly with a mama deer and her babies! The lake is right down the hill, surrounded by trees this is a lovely spot. I had breakfast at the restaurant overlooking the lake, a HUGE plate of pancakes, with sausage and potatoes, delish! Service was great, the view is terrific and the menu prices are reasonable. Coffee is available in the lobby 24/7, it's a very nice light roast, perfect for sipping in the morning and watching the forest come to life.

    If there were more stars, this would qualify. This place is absolutely magical. I am not a camper…read morein any sense of the word. When the opportunity came to spend a girls weekend away we opted for Glamping as an adventure to explore and enjoy time away to relax and unwind. I am so glad that I stepped outside of my comfort zone and enjoyed a fantastic two nights at this absolutely stunning and wonderful place. There aren't enough adjectives to describe how truly amazing this place is. It has to be experienced. Before we were even leaving we were already planning our next visit. This will easily become an annual event. No doubt. This retreat would also be a terrific place for bachelor/bachelorette parties, girls weekends, guys weekends, birthday celebrations, baby moons, honeymoons, book clubs... absolutely any reason to escape into the arms of nature where you are surrounded by the beauty of the area and amazing amenities. Regardless of how many people are in your group, this place has an option that is not only affordable but also guaranteed to give a fantastic experience to all guests in your group. There are cabins that fit 12 people (their own shower/bathroom, mini fridge, microwave, fire pit with chairs, grill), yurts (personal fire pit, covered picnic table, outdoor chairs, grill), and a main lodge room (keyless secured entry, sleeps 8, connected to communal kitchenette, showers, restrooms, lounge space, grills, fire pit). See their socials for the options. There's also a terrific map that will show you where all the amenities are located in relation to the sleeping options. Regardless of which one you pick, you will have your own personal space along with clean and well stocked communal areas. We decided on a yurt. This was on a platform with parking on both sides if needed, our own personal covered picnic table, personal grill, supply of kindling/firewood, outdoor seating, two queen beds, two benches and small table, air conditioning, two electric fans, fairy lights inside, and a small lamp. We were absolutely blown away by the amount of details that were taken in this space to make our stay comfortable and welcoming. Upon entering there's a box of necessities that were on the bed. This was full of flash lights, lighters, fire starters, fly swatter, guest book, pen, bug spray, walker talkie (in case of emergency), and some chargers. The air was already on so the untidy was comfortable when we arrived. This is a self check in and out retreat where they communicate via text and email alerting you to your accommodations. Each bed had linens provided, 2 pillows, comforters, and additional blankets at the bottom if needed. There were 16 available outlets for your things and two USB plugs. There are throw rugs and a two large entrances on either side of the yurt (both with a screen and a closed panel). There are 3 zippered windows that you can open and the top of the yurt has clear panels that you can see out of if wanted. We kept the 'blinds' up to make it cooler since this was August. It's nice to have the option to open the cloth 'blinds' from the top of the yurt so you can see the stars through the plastic panels. We kept the windows closed as we had the air and the two fans running (one oscillating) which really made the yurt comfortable even in the summer heat. When the sun went down, it was even cooler. There's a mat out front for wiping feet and a plastic mat with sides in the inside so you can take off your shoes to keep your yurt clear of dirt. There's also a metal trash can with a lid. Everything you need is here inside. It is absolutely adorable!!! The fairy lights just add to the vibe at night. The yurts do not have a kitchen or a bathroom. You have to walk to the communal area. There are two - one in the main lodge for yurts 1-6 and another smaller bath house/kitchenette for yurts 7-9. Yurts 1-3 are in the meadow. Yurts 4-6 are in a wooded area. Yurts 7-9 are near the cabins and have a much shorter walk to the smaller amenities than the others. If you need to use the restroom frequently throughout the evening, I would suggest yurt 7 as it is just a few feet from the communal bathroom. The communal spaces have been well thought out and are so incredibly clean! The main lodge had a large fridge stocked with their Meade that you can purchase, a full size fridge to throw your food in, a freezer full of ice for purchase, a sink, a coffee pot, microwave, hot pot for tea, seating area, and trash cans. There's also paper plates, bowls, utensils for you to use. They also have water bottle fillet station throughout the property and item for sale. There's snacks, Mac and cheese, ice, charcoal, gloves, hats, water bottles, shirts, etc throughout the property for sale. Simply use the QR to make the purchase. Super convenient. The main lodge had a massage room, shower room with 4 private showers where towels are provided (washrags are not so bring one - the shower has shampoo,

Manisha and Prashsant, owners of Stone Manor Inn, were personally involved in making sure all went smoothly with our cocktail and dinner party, and it most certainly did! SMI is a lovely old country inn on 14 acres, I believe, with a number of different venues (indoors and out) for meetings, parties, and weddings. The rooms (7 in total) were eclectic, in a good way. All four of their largest rooms that we occupied were spacious, with king beds and spa tubs with separate showers. All were well maintained and clean upon check-in. We had no complaints.

I was on the fence to book this place given its hefty price tag, and glad I went for it and completely agree with the glowing 5 star reviews. The bubbly host Manisha is very warm and welcoming. She cordially gave us a 20 min tour around the property, which was built in 1908, and even gave me a bonus tour of the other rooms afterwards. She kindly answered all of our questions and didn't rush us. The Peacecock Room is the most spacious and best room (aside from the bridal suite), elaborately decorated in peacocks. We loved it! The little touches like the handmade soap, a set of wine glasses, and a wine opener made the stay so memorable and special. While the rooms aren't temperature controlled, the electric flameless fireplace kept the room warm. The double capacity jacuzzi was perfect for my hubby and I and even had lights (some of the other rooms have smaller jacuzzi, so be sure to check). The rooms were clean minus a couple of lady bugs and stink bugs (which is too be expected out in the country). Dr. Fauci's assistant stayed here and Manisha informed us of the extensive sanitation process, even the pillows and decorations are quarantined for 6 days! The backyard is well groomed and really spacious with a nice patio and heat lamp, which kept us warm sitting outside in the frigid winter. Our dog loved running around! You can see the stars and constellations really well. It would make a great wedding venue! The Christmas decorations around the property are really nice. The owners really go the extra mile and put a lot of TLC into the property. The 6 course breakfast is delicious and bursting with flavor. Between the veggie quiche, cheesy potatoes, scone, pancakes, yogurt, and fresh OJ, I was stuffed! The fresh butterscotch scone was divine and devoured my mine and my hubby's! The cheesy potato had a nice spicy kick. Everything was so fresh and delicious. All the courses come out at once on a large tray. While my hubby and I chose to sit at the communal table (the chairs are roughly 6 feet apart), you can take the tray up to your room. Manisha and her family greeted us and thoroughly explained the dishes and chatted with us for a bit, even her son made an appearance! The bed and breakfast has a nice bar with wine, cider, and alcohol based on an honor code system. Water and soda is complementary, they even had Coke 0! The complementary fudgy brownies by the breakfast area during the day were sweet and tasty. Again the little complimentary stuff gives this bed and breakfast a nice resort feel. Very relaxing stay and looking forward to coming back!

The staff was very accommodating when I had to change my reservation, and were all wonderful in-person, too. We ate dinner at the restaurant, which had good home-cooked food, but the young waiter needs training; he came over when we were still eating and asked what we thought about dessert. It wasn't crowded, so I don't understand why we were rushed through our meal. We didn't end up going back because there are so many other dining options in the town or nearby, but it's definitely a plus to have a restaurant on-site when traveling with a dog.
