--Now with high-speed 1-gig fiber optic internet--
Aerie is on an unusually large lot (2 acres) at the end of a road, and it backs to state park land. Only 12 minutes' drive to the Berkeley Spring State Park and baths and downtown, you can enjoy being in the woods and being close to town and shops. You can walk (about 20 minutes) or drive (3 minutes) to Berkeley Springs Brewing Company and Coolfont Resort.
Features of Aerie: * The great room, which is 30 feet long, features a fantastic 1970s fireplace. * Private 6-person hot tub on rear deck in private setting facing Cacapon Mountain * 3 decks: front deck spans the length of the great room and faces down the hill across the treetops and to the distant sky. Relax outside and enjoy the peaceful views. * Dining table that seats 10. * Efficient galley kitchen, which contains everything you need to make a great meal. * The larger king bedroom, off of the entry hall, has an ensuite bathroom and its own small patio with two rocking chairs. * The three additional bedrooms face up the mountainside have high ceilings and ample open closets. One room has a king bed, one has a queen bed, and the other room has two twin beds. * There is one additional twin bed up on the loft above the great room. Note: the loft is not for everyone! The stairs are narrow and a bit steep, the ceiling is a bit low, and there are gaps at either end that make this area less than ideal for tall people and also little kids :)
Special amenities include: 100% cotton sheets on all beds; organic whole bean coffee (fair trade, regular and decaf), burr coffee grinder, selection of organic teas; Keurig mini (bring your own pods); filtered water tap; Public Goods brand toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, lotion); 6-person hot tub; pool towels; Level 2 EV charger; gas grill; propane fire 'column'; games; books; smart TV (as well as DVD player/DVDs).
Planning for the summer? Coolfont Mountainside community has an outdoor pool and hot tub (open in the summer only, from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day), as well as a tot lot, playing field, and hiking trails that lead to public land and Cacapon State Park. (Note the community also has tennis courts and a basketball court, and though they are open for use, they are in need of some repair.) There are so many recreational activities nearby including hiking, biking (mountain and trail), canoeing/floating, hunting, and, of course, soaking in the mineral waters of the Roman Baths in town, and visiting the fun shops and the Morgan County Arts Center.
Coolfont Mountainside is a really nice community in the woods. Roads curve up the mountainside revealing a diversity of cabin architecture. You can drive, walk, or bike down to the community outdoor pool and hot tub (in the summer) or you can take the marked hiking trails throughout as well. The trails lead up to the top of Cacapon Mountain where there is a fire road that leads to Prospect Rock (a favorite spot of George Washington) and south to Cacapon Resort State Park.
ROADS: The main roads of Coolfont Mountainside are paved, but the smaller roads (like the one Aerie is on) are gravel. The driveway up to Aerie is also gravel, but it is not too steep. In snowy weather, the roads are plowed, but please check ahead for road conditions. (NOTE we do not cancel due to inclement weather--please buy travel insurance if you want to protect your purchase for these types of circumstances.)

Aerie was the perfect home base for our family weekend getaway. There was great common space for spending time together and plenty of separate sleeping areas. We enjoyed the great outdoor spaces including the deck and hot tub.
The place was perfect for us. Comfortable and clean. Love the decor. Plenty of room for all of our stuff. We did two jigsaw puzzles used the hot tub and fireplace twice. Great stay and would visit again!
This cabin has plenty of space, a hot tub, and a lovely great room. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there, and we especially appreciated the owner's thoughtfulness and responsiveness. Highly recommended.
A total of seven of us (four adults, one teen, and two pre-teens) stayed at this property for a few days. The location was great. Super peaceful. The house had everything we needed. The fireplace, record player, and hot tub were all greatly enjoyed! Highly recommend!
We loved the house! The space is very well decorated and tended to with lots of thought toward comfort and aesthetics. We had fun playing records and the porch is such a huge bonus.Maybe bring your own kitchen knives as the ones provided aren't very sharp. Otherwise a perfect stay with everyone needed!
A short stay in the woods for my older parents and my teenager was just right at Aerie. It’s hard to find a place where that span of generations are both happy but this was it. Super quiet, beautifully appointed and spotless. Loved it and will be back 10 for the photos of Kate Bush.
Beautiful house located deep in the woods but not remote. Hot tub is in a great location on a back deck and is private and among the trees. Bedrooms were very comfortable and our three kids each had their own room all off of a single hallway which is an ideal layout for a family with young children. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
We all enjoyed our Thanksgiving trip to Berkeley Springs. The home was so comfortable and roomy and we all enjoyed hanging out in the living room by the fire and listening to records and watching movies. The hot tub was an added bonus enjoyed mostly by the teens in our family. Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful home. The views from the deck were so peaceful and calming. I would like to return in the summer.
I can’t say enough good things about our stay! Everything was perfect! The wood pile was stacked high and ready for the fireplace, the hot tub had a fresh fill, and the bathrooms were clean and stocked with toiletries. Just a few of the many great things about Aerie. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. Five gals on a birthday trip leaving all the “at home” responsibilities behind. It was a wonderfully relaxing and pleasant weekend.
I booked for the MSM vibe and the hot tub, and we hope to go back for so many reasons. This was a family week-end in January. The host thought of everything from the truly comfortable beds to the well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. We especially loved the fireplace and the fact that the long dining room table was big enough for five of us to eat at one end and work a 1,000 piece puzzle at the other end. There was ample seating in the living room too.We also loved watching the sunrise on the horizon plus the lovely and quiet neighborhood. Berkeley Springs is just a few miles NE -- we wished we'd book spa time, because they all the slots were taken when we checked on Saturday afternoon.The host has communication nailed down. The property instructions were easy to understand and well-timed. Great stay!
This property is beautifully decorated and quite intuitive. It has a very clean line/swedish decor vibe. Beds / pillows are SUPER comfortable and linens were the perfect starchy soft snuggle in feel. No one wanted to leave! We enjoyed the vinyls, the fireplace, walks around the area, and the hot tub. The house / location/ things to do will not disappoint. We plan to return so I think if you are often traveling then you “get” how wonderful a place must be if you return. My only suggestion would be to fix slider doors- they are difficult to open. Kitchen - well appointed. Bed rooms- comfortable and difficult to leave. Bathrooms- super clean. Games, puzzles, music & beautiful fall views. Quietttttttt neighborhood. Just perfect.
We had a wonderful stay at the Aerie! The large, comfy sitting room and deck were perfect for reconnecting on a girl’s weekend. The hot tub was lovely, with beautiful views of the woods and stars! The kitchen was well appointed and all of the bedrooms were beautiful and comfy.
We had a terrific stay in this home. It was located in a very peaceful neighborhood. I loved all of the trees surrounding the house. The deck was large and very relaxing. The owner was very accommodating and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice getaway.
We were looking for a family friendly spot close to both Cacapon Park and the town of Berkeley Springs. This property far exceeded our expectations. It is beautifully decorated. Every amenity is available-from coffee beans to crayons. Anna is an amazing host. Highly recommend!
We travel to Berkeley Springs at least twice a year and have stayed in many Coolfont community homes. This unique, comfortable, peaceful home is the best so far. Everything one could need is provided, and more. The owner goes out of her way to be accommodating, and she is very welcoming. We can’t thank her enough for sharing this special place with us.
House was exactly as advertised and well appointed with 60’s era furnishings. Only concerns were the steep driveway and yard for us over 60 year olds some of whom have mobility issues.
A beautiful, spacious property close to a variety of outdoor activities at Cacapon Park and good food and sightseeing at Berkeley Springs. Very cozy, nice fireplace and it's conveniently on a Coolfont Mountain trail. The owner was very responsive and accommodating.
