Winter family get-a-way A guest from Oakland, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 4 days in February, 2013 We've stayed there 5 times and my family and grandson love it there - would like to see a better coffee pot and laundry supplies to wash the linens (as you requested) when we leave. I always leave things as clean as when we get there |

President's Day Weekend Rebecca M. from Glen Dale, WV recommends this property. Stayed for 3 days in February, 2013 What a beautiful house! We loved the lay-out of the house and the kitchen was great. We met the owner who thanked us for renting her home and it should be us thanking her for letting us rent her home. I love working with the Best of Canaan Realty office, they are so nice and helpful to deal with. Was a great time we all had!!!! |

Great place. Close to the ski slopes. Nice View of the slopes. George L. from Aiken, SC recommends this property. Stayed for 10 days in December, 2012 We enjoyed our stay. The property was clean and properly maintained. Great location. The only things that might need to be changed are the coffee maker (not a big deal) but it makes the mornings nicer :) and the kitchen glasses. They all have hard water deposits. Also I would have loved to have a wood-burning fireplace. The house was build with one but it was converted to a gas fireplace. For day by day use in a residential house it might be convenient to have a gas fireplace but in a vacation home in the mountains I love a wood-burning fireplace... but again this is my taste. Some people might actually enjoy the gas fireplace..and is a very nice one. No gas odor or things like that. It's properly ventilated. Beside these things the property is great, close to the slopes, clean and properly maintained. I would highly recommended it. The property management company is as professional and friendly as it can get. Thanks. I'm looking forward to book with them again. A+++++ .. and I forgot... the property has nice view of the slopes in Timberline... especially at night. This should be advertised with the property. |

A+ for the staff at Best of Canaan! Colleen R. from Parkersburg, WV recommends this property. Stayed for 8 days in November, 2012 This was our second year staying at Higher Ground, and we have already booked our reservations for next year. I think that says it all! |

blessed family time Jennifer J. from Lynchburg, VA recommends this property. Stayed for 5 days in September, 2012 The space was perfect for our family. as we gathered for meals we could all be together, and when it was time for sleeping or time alone there are spaces for that as well. we enjoyed the mornings as the mist rose from the valley and the sun came over the ridge. the deer in the mist as they welcomed the morning. I was told you will hear the call of the mountains after you return home. i thought it would take more than 3 days, I am already wondering about our next visit to the Valley. Thank You all for a wonderful time and making us all feel welcome and at HOME. ~ The Jones / Stuart Families ~ |

Enjoyed our stay at Higher Ground Julie A. from Dover, Ohio recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in August, 2012 House is beautiful and very clean. Ladies working in the office were very friendly. Hot tub may not be working right as it took 5 days to heat up. We didn't realize there would be so much traffic into/out of the gated community next door. Loved the house itself and the area. |

from our 5 year old "I want to buy this house!" A guest from Jeanette, PA recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in July, 2012 This was our 1st trip to the Valley, but not our last! We really didn't know where the house was located but couldn't have been more please. We have 8 children and there was plenty of room to run and have fun. They loved playing in the creek and relaxing in the hot tub. Actually, we all loved the hot tub. When my husband told our 5 year old he wanted to have the hot tub for Christmas, our son said he wanted the HOME for Christmas! The home is beautifully decorated and very clean. Also, it made everything a lot easier to be able to take our dog. Our kids have said this is where we have to come back every year...and we agree! |

Birthday on Higher Ground James S. from Alexandria, VA recommends this property. Stayed for 6 days in June, 2012 Probably the most comfortable, well-laid out Canaan Valley house I have stayed at, and I've rented well over 30 places and even owned a house up on the hill. Just wish/am glad I didn't have the password to the wireless router. :) |

Higher Ground is Highly Recommended A guest from Hyattsville, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 4 days in June, 2012 A wonderful, comfortable home with a large, well-appointed kitchen. The little stream running through the back yard was a big hit with my son. Well located and close to tons of outdoor recreation, but just as well suited for watching the sun set while dining on the deck. Only drawbacks: right next to main road leading in to Old Timberline; bathtubs fill very slowly. Still can't go wrong choosing Higher Ground. |

Amazing stay at Higher Ground, didn't want to leave! A guest from Davis, WV recommends this property. Stayed for 57 days in March, 2012 I was relocating to Canaan Valley and needed a place for myself and animals to stay while I found long term housing. Higher Ground was a terrific temporary home and exceeded my expectations for a vacation rental. The setting is beautiful, loved being along the stream and the view of the mountain off the deck was wonderful. The layout was great for entertaining and spending time with friends. It allows everyone to be part of the action whether cooking or simply relaxing. The nicest aspect of this house is that it didn't feel like a rental property. The construction, amenities, furnishings and finishes are quality and mirror those you'd choose for your home. I had a great two months at Higher Ground and wish I could have moved in for good. I?d like to compliment Best of Canaan for their great customer service and depth of knowledge. |

Home away from home. Joaquin V. from Falls Church, VA recommends this property. Stayed for 2 days in February, 2012 Even though our stay was short the home was amazing. It's had everything we needed. The fully equipped kitchen was great. Only problem was the wifi but not such a big deal. I would recommend this home to any family or group of friends. I'm looking forward to coming back next year and hopefully staying longer. Thanks for everything. |

Higher Ground Dustin D. from Troy, WV recommends this property. Stayed for 3 days in January, 2012 Best of canann as a company by far is the easiest to deal with in the area. As far as the house it was not very kid friendly, at least for a two year old. Plus a couple amenities weren't working properly. But i will do business with best of canann again. |

Great Stay! A guest from Fulton, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 3 days in December, 2011 We had a wonderful time at Higher Ground. It is a very nice house, well kept with all you need for a relaxing stay. Close to the slopes but probably not walking distance with ski boots on but close enough for easy drop off. we'd stay there again. |

Higher Ground - October 2011 Robert B. from Wexford, PA recommends this property. Stayed for 4 days in October, 2011 Great rental property. Was in nice condition and had all the amentities you would want. Center griddle on the gas stove was a highlight and made for good eats. It was a little close to the main road back into Timberline, as it sits on a corner lot. But, it was walking distance to both the chairlift and Trail Mix (store). Overall, just a great vacation! |

In the Mountains we forget to count the days... Brian L. from Lusby, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 14 days in August, 2011 This was our second stay at Higher Ground. We love it!! Such a Beautiful house! The only drawback is if you have a dog you have to be careful of the 's very busy so you need to put your dog on a leash to be outside. Our first stay was in the Fall so we didn't notice that the house doesn't have A/C till we stayed this would have been nice to have on the warmest days we were there. |

Loving WVA A guest from Palm City, FL recommends this property. Stayed for 7 days in July, 2011 We had a lot of fun at our stay in Canaan Valley. The property was in great shape and with ample ammenities and space. We did a lot of hiking and sightseeing. The whole family and our beagle enjoyed our time there. The only draw back was the lack of a/c in house. |

Nice House, Couple of Suggestions sue s. from Rockville, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 16 days in July, 2011 LOVE the staff at Best of Canaan, and truly they are the best. We would rent from Best of Canaan again in a minute.We have stayed twice at this house for a total of 32 days. It is generally a nice house, but could use some updating of kitchen equipment and TV in living room. The sound is dying on that TV and was hard to tolerate. Deck also needs splinter maintenance.Hate the bed in the MBR. It is too high and a broken hip waiting to happen. I am almost 50 and only 5 feet tall. It was not at all fun to try and climb in and out of the bed which was 36" high. Wouldn't rent again because of the bed.For this second stay, the house no longer had free long distance. Okay for a weekend, but for 2 weeks we needed access to a phone, and we had no cell phone coverage from our carrier. Donna was great in helping provide emergency contact to a local vet, but things could have been easier with a phone. Suggest adding it back, offering a small fee to use or at least letting renters know to purchase a long distance card before arriving in the valley. Property Manager Response: Response from Best of Canaan Thanks for taking the time to comment on your recent stay at Higher Ground. We sincerely hope that overall, during you time here, your experience was more pleasant than unpleasant. All of us at Best of Canaan, along with the owners of Higher Ground, regret that you were not pleased with the house in general and are currently evaluating all of your issues. We certainly appreciate your input and want to remind all of our renters that we are available 7 days a week to answer questions and resolve maintenance issues. |

Pleasant stay Stephanie T. from Vienna, WV recommends this property. Stayed for 4 days in June, 2011 We absolutely loved staying at Higher Ground! The only recommendation I have is a gas grill instead of charcoal. I had quite the time getting it going since I am not used to a charcoal grill. Other than that, it was perfect and we will be back. |

Beautiful vacation home Melissa S. from Linville, VA recommends this property. Stayed for 2 days in April, 2011 Higher Ground is one of the most beautiful vacation homes that I have ever stayed in! This house was super clean and everything that you need is there from a very large abundance of towels to every kitchen appliance imaginable, whether you are staying 2 nights or 2 weeks it is all there. The only problem that we found with the house is the 2nd queen bed is not very comfortable, other than that the house is perfect! We vacationed with some of our family and had 4 adults & 3 kids, but there were room for a few more. You will not be disappointed if you rent this vacation home, it is wonderful!! |

Property and Managers Excellent Mark H. from Vero Beach, FL recommends this property. Stayed for 4 days in December, 2010 I have booked accommodations in Timberline with the majority of the realty companies in the area of the years. Best of Canaan's staff is one of the best! They were very kind and in constant communications leading up to our stay. Higher Ground was a great house especially if you have two families that need space to spread out. The professional kitchen which overlooks the warm great room with an awesome view of the T Lines slopes was great. The Mr. Steam in the Master bath shower was a hit after a long day on the slopes. This home is nicely appointed with many extras but yet has a very warm and relaxing feel. Walking distance to the slopes is a stretch especially in ski gear, but the property location is easily accessible as its just past the 3 way stop going to T-Line. Our family will look forward to returning again next year, and I definitely recommend Best of Canaan Realty. |

High Praise for Higher Ground A guest from Rockville, MD recommends this property. Stayed for 2 days in December, 2010 We had a great time staying at Higher Ground. The house was absolutely perfect, plenty of space for our whole group. The hot tub was amazing, as was the game area and kitchen. We couldn't beat the location either - we were literally around the corner from Timberline resort. Skiing was perfect there. All in all, just a gorgeous, perfectly located house. Thanks! |

A guest from Richmond, VA recommends this property.
Stayed for 4 days in November, 2010 Had a great stay...only complaint was the bed in the master. I did not sleep there personally, but my parents said it was very uncomfortable and a bit on the small side for a master bed. My bed was what I would expect from a rental.The other item you should know about is the knob/lock on the side door (main one used) is loose or something.Cant wait to stay again!! Property Manager Response: Response from Best of Canaan Thanks so much for taking the time to complete the review. We wanted to let you know that our maintenance staff reported the problem with the door knob after you departed and we have had a local locksmith install a new one. We hope that it wasn't an inconvience to you and your family. We regret that the queen bed in the master bedroom was not comfortable for your parents. We have never heard that comment before. In the house's guest book we have had many positive remarks about the comfort of that particular room, and we completely understand that mattress comfort is a very personal issue. We really do appreciate your comments and hope that you had a lovely Thanksgiving at Higher Ground. We look forward to welcoming you back. |
