We love the river! We often go swimming, tubing and fishing; it's perfect on a hot summer day.



About a 15 min drive from our place is a small local brewery, Berkeley Springs Brewing Company. They're constantly churning out new beer (literally every week); we're big fans of their IPA and sour beers. They also have a smoker with fantastic BBQ!



Getting Around:

There's plenty of parking on site. We're about a 20 min drive from Berkeley Springs.



Interaction with Guests:

Tony can be reached via cell/text during your stay, and a property manager can be onsite for any issues that arise.

The cabin was on a beautiful mtn. and very peaceful. The hot tub had some issues so we only used it 2 times at the end of our stay. The pictures/info on the site said 2 double beds on main floor but it was a double and a twin. Would have liked to have some wood available for a fire on our snowy night. There were some cleanliness issues and several rooms could use some refreshing but it was a nice camping cabin in the woods.

The stay was disappointing due to cleanliness issues. The cutlery was not properly cleaned, and there was pet hair throughout the house, including on the bedding. This made the space feel unhygienic and uncomfortable. I hope the host can address these issues for future guests.

Overall a decent cabin. Think it’s probably best if you have a group or family of 6 looking for something economical. Seems like the cabin could use an overall refresh. Wish the hot tub was on the enclosed patio.

Nice cabin for weekend getaway

This cabin was just right for a weekend away with friends. The location is peaceful and private. Comfortable beds, nice bathrooms, great screened in porch. Kitchen was well stocked with basics, but could use some dish towels, oven mitts and a baking dish. Had plenty of pots, pans and utensils.

Relaxation and privacy

This little cabin in the woods was in such a great location. We loved being both in a secluded location, but just a short drive to the river and not far from berkley springs to food/ supplies. We also took a day trip to winchester to shop. Loved the screened in porch to drink coffee and read.

Perfect cabin for a weekend getaway. The community is unique in that it is gated, but 1200 acres. We only used the upstairs bedrooms, but the beds were comfortable. Loved the screened in porch!! The only addition that is needed is a fly swatter. Some very large, but slow moving flies appeared on our last night and we had to get creative with how we disposed of them. Very clean cabin!

Great vacation

We had a great stay at the Nut House Cabin. It was clean and fully furnished with everything we needed. A good home base for our trip to Harpers Ferry, Paw Paw Tunnel, Cacapon State Park, and Berkeley Springs. The hot tub was a nice perk after a busy day sightseeing. We did not use the lower level bedrooms as our family of 3 didn't need the rooms, but they appeared to be nice. We loved being able to take the family dog. We would definitely return if in the area again.

Was nice quiet place

Was what i expected, quiet, clean, private. Hot tub was very nice clean. I would warn anyone expecting to be "connected" internet is DSL. But you pretty much don't want to be online. It rained a lot filled the creek, wonderful to hear while on porch.

Quiet Cabin in the woods

The property was as pictured, secluded, comfortable a serene location in the woods. The property management and communication was outstanding. And he cabin had everything you would need there and it could certainly host a family. For a rustic cabin it was great and serviceable. One minor complaint (and we realize we are being just a bit picky) the furniture and fixtures were a bit worn, the beds just a bit uncomfortable and wobbly. We enjoyed the location and it was just what we needed - but a little TLC would improve the experience immensely.

About the host

Hosted by Tony Cappaert

Host profile image
I live in DC with my wife and two young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.

Why they chose this property

We spent years searching for Tranquil Nights. We wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We picked River Ridge because of the river access, the community spirit and the easy access to America's original spa town, Berkeley Springs.

What makes this property unique

Tranquil Nights offers the ability to have multiple families stay together. Also great for a guys or gals weekend away. We provide three kayaks for at the river for the exclusive use of our guests. The community, River Ridge, welcomes all of the seasons. The first weeks of Spring bring white clouds of Service Berry blossoms, followed closely by the vibrant red buds and dogwoods. Violets, blue bells, and phlox carpet the river banks and hillsides. Summer calls for swimming and boating along the scenic Cacapon River. The River Ridge park has boat racks, a bath house, and picnic tables for outdoor fun. In the fall, the oaks, maples, and hickories steal the show with the golden Paw Paws along the river persisting until the first snows. In Winter, snow blankets the hills while curls of wood smoke and roaming flocks of wild turkey provide a memorable backdrop for holiday gatherings.
