We considered calling this house “The View With Some Rooms,” but settled on The Lodge. One of a few units on the property, this private 3-bedroom house includes a rooftop dome (which serves as the third bedroom). From almost every spot, enjoy the jaw-dropping scenery of endless mountains, three states, and the Potomac River.
Camp Potomac Peak was recently (Nov 2024) named the best place to stay in the Eastern Panhandle by WV Living Magazine.
We have two other rentals on the property if you're looking to add more guests--the Cedar + the Cabin! Reach out for a full camp rental (sleeps up to 14).
The space
The Lodge is a two bedroom, two full-bathroom unit with a fully stocked kitchen, cozy enclosed sunroom, adjoining game room, and two private outdoor patio areas. Our third bedroom is... on the ROOF! Sleep under the stars and take in the sunsets in our super cool rooftop dome--the Moonlight. As explained below, because of the cold temperatures, the dome is NOT available as a usable bedroom in January and February. The nightly rate has been reduced to reflect that.
We provide almost everything you need including high-quality linens, luxury bath towels/hand towels/washcloths, extra hot tub towels, paper towels, toilet paper, basic spices/sugar/olive oil, fully stocked kitchen, all-natural shampoo/conditioner/body wash, natural hand soap, dish soap/detergent, etc. (we will email a full list upon booking).
We have two twin air mattresses available with all linens/pillows/blankets.
The Moonlight Dome (king bed) is located just outside the Lodge, and up a flight of stairs. Kick back and relax on the private rooftop deck, and use the telescope to stargaze. The dome shares the second full bathroom inside the Lodge. The dome is air conditioned (with blackout curtains!) during the warmer months. For the colder days, the dome has heat, and a heated mattress pad. Please note that the dome is not usable as a bedroom during the coldest months (Jan/Feb) due to the chill (insulation is limited inside the dome). As such, the nightly rate in January and February has been reduced to reflect 2 bedrooms and 2 baths available.
Upon arrival, you'll find a bag of fresh coffee beans and a s'mores kit waiting for you. Play some foosball, Pacman, or board games in the game room...tune into the Sonos speakers throughout the house...throw on a record...draw on the chalkboard wall...relax on the outdoor sofa while grilling up dinner (Weber grill)...watch a movie on the smart TVs (we provide Amazon Prime and Netflix to make it easy for you!)...throw some logs in the Solo stove fire pit (we stock you with fire starters and dry firewood!)...and cap off the night in the private hot tub under the stars.
Directly across the driveway from the Lodge is our outdoor Lounge area (chairs, cornhole, communal fire pit), which is shared with all guests staying on the property. In the lower level of the Lodge is our newest guest amenity--the Trading Post. Pick up some CPP gear, drinks/snacks, or some items you might have forgotten to pack! There is also a mini library of books and records, and a postcard mailing station. This space is open for all guests staying on the property 24/7. Rest assured that while the Trading Post is located in the "basement" of the Lodge, there is no access from inside this space into the main living area. Once booked, we'll email you our custom Field Guide--highlighting all of our favorite recommendations for what to do, see, eat, and explore in the area.
The property has reliable, fast wifi, smart TVs, and good cell phone coverage.
Camp Potomac Peak is located on a ridge of Cacapon Mountain and offers stellar views over the Potomac River into Maryland and Pennsylvania. Situated on 8 acres, the property offers plenty of room for stretching your legs and walking around the grounds. We are just 10 minutes from the spa town of Berkeley Springs, two fantastic state parks, and two amazing rivers.
Guest access
Please note, the Lodge shares a driveway with our other rentals—the Cabin and the Cedar. The Cedar, in particular, is located a few yards away from the Lodge, but efforts have been made to include privacy for both. Because we have multiple units within close proximity to each other on the property, we ask that guests respect quiet hours after 10pm. Some of the grounds, and the Lounge area (with the killer view!) located across from the Lodge are shared, common spaces with other guests.
Other things to note
We are meticulous about cleaning, and can ensure that the place will be spotless. The towels and sheets aren’t the only things fresh—as we wash all throw blankets and duvet covers before every guest.
The lodge is dog friendly- we allow one, well behaved dog per stay. We provide dog bowls, sheet, towel, and poop bags. A $75 pet fee covers additional cleaning, as well as a donation to our local Humane Society.
We also live just five minutes away from Camp Potomac Peak, so if anything comes up where you might need assistance with something, we are almost always the ones you will interface with. Jeff is incredibly handy and can fix/solve most anything (but don't tell him I admitted that). We are both personally involved in ALL of the day-to-day operations at CPP, and we are available 24/7 (we provide our personal cell phone #'s upon arrival). We have an absolutely AWESOME team member, Mandi, who does most all of our cleaning and detailing to make your stay perfect. You may see one of us on the property during your stay servicing another unit- please don't hesitate to let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable!
We totally understand that things come up and plans may need to change. We allow one reservation change outside of the cancellation window. Requests for changes inside of the cancellation window will result in related penalties per our cancellation policy. Just as we handle cancellations within the window, should the lodge rebook for the original nights of your scheduled stay, a full refund of the rebooked nights will be issued.
