Great get away
My children/ grandchildren, had a wonderful relaxing get away to enjoy Canaan’s winter fun!!
October 26, 2024 - Escapia
Checked all the boxes!
Great stay! Lovely house, comfortable bed, and kitchen has everything you need. Close to all the main areas we wanted to hike. Beautiful time of year to visit! One side note, most of the “cute little shops” in Thomas are closed this time of year or have wonky limited hours. The only thing that softened the disappointment was TipTop coffee shop. Cute, friendly and wonderful coffee and muffins.
Bottom line: Highly recommend!

Hiking in WV
Relax Ronnie was a very nice place to stay. The house is spacious and well laid out. The neighborhood was quiet. The location gave easy access to Dolly Sods, Blackwater Falls, and Canaan State park. Management was super responsive. Check-in and out was easy. Davis was a cool area to tour.

Stunning Location!
by DEEPA B.
Nestled in the scenic beauty of West Virginia, this home offered the perfect retreat. The views were stunning, and the tranquility of the surroundings made it easy to unwind and enjoy nature.
The house itself was immaculate and well-appointed, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We loved the spacious layout, cozy furnishings, and all the thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The outdoor space was a highlight, with plenty of room to relax and take in the breathtaking landscape.
Our family had a wonderful time here, and we can't recommend it enough for anyone looking to escape to a peaceful and picturesque setting. We left with great memories and look forward to returning in the future!
Your review is greatly appreciated! We are happy to hear you had a wonderful time and made great memories at Relax Ronnie. Thank you for using Best of Canaan and we can't wait to see you again!

Family Tradition
by Brenda B.
Our family loved this cozy house so much we hope to rent it again next year and continue the tradition of vacationing together. It was so clean and the beds were very comfortable. There were plenty of games for our granddaughter to enjoy. The kitchen was well stocked, everything you’d need. Hot tub was amazing and we also enjoyed making s’mores by the fire pit. Even though it’s near an airstrip it was so peaceful and quiet the entire week. We loved the location. Already looking forward to returning next October!
We can't wait to have you back! Thank you for you review.
Comfortable and centrally located to nearby attractions
Relax Ronnie was a nice vacation home that was fully equipped- griddle, crockpot, pots/pans, cooking utensils, comfortable beds, jacuzzi and walk in shower in master bedroom , hot tub outside, cornhole and a nice flat area to play it in the shade, fire pit, plenty of blankets and pillows. The seating area had 1 sofa that was comfortable and 3 chairs that were not comfortable to sit and watch movies. There was a nice selection of movies. The loft had a comfortable sofa and another bed. I would book Relax Ronnie again.
Excellent
A beautiful home in a very quiet neighboorhood. House was clean and very relaxing with plenty of space to spread out. A small plane runway was in the back. A plane went out in the morning and returned later afternoon.
Thank you for your review on Relax Ronnie. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time. Hope to have you back!
Awesome family trip
by Shyam A.
Wonderful place nestled with beautiful surroundings. House itself was very clean and had all the amenities. Kids loved the bath tub, close to Blackwater falls and some other nice places. Would definitely be coming back.
We look forward to your return! We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Relax Ronnie!

Perfect Mountain Getaway
by Sandra D.
Our family absolutely loved our mini-vacation in Relax Ronnie. The rental process was smooth and easy, and the location is beautiful. The home was elegant, immaculate, and comfortable, with every amenity you can think of. The kids loved the hot tub, and the gas fireplace was the perfect evening gathering place. Also, nearby Blackwater Falls was a breathtaking place to hike. Many thanks!
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Relax Ronnie! Thank you for your review and we hope to have you back soon!

Family Time
by Stephanie H.
Myself and my family enjoyed our stay immensely last week. I must say that we have visited Canaan Valley many times and have stayed in very nice homes but our stay at Talboys was the most enjoyable. The house is beautiful and very clean. It has everything you need for a very enjoyable stay.

Relaxing Stay
by Susan K.
Very nice home in the quiet Windwood Resort. House was clean and furnished nicely. It made for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We hope to come back soon! Checked in late and out early, so didn't meet the rental staff, but they seemed great on the phone.

Peaceful retreat
Relaxing, quiet, comfortable, well-appointed home.
Great accomodation
by Arun K.
Our stay at Talboys was were comfortable. Everything was very clean . The kitchen was well equipped. I would highly recommend this vacation rental to anyone.
Great vacation property!
by Kathy H.
There were 6 adults in our group and our main purpose was to have a very relaxing vacation and motorcycle thru the mountains of West Virginia. The home was very comfortable, plenty of room and well stocked. The kitchen has just about anything you would need. We utilized the grill every night and then off to the hot tub. My only issue with the hot tub is I wish it had more jets, but we made the best of it just relaxing and enjoying the company. The beds were very comfortable and I loved the shower in the master bedroom. The neighborhood was quiet and we did meet one gentleman who lived a few houses away and talked to him several times. The location was perfect for us. One couple went to Big Johns one day and said the food wasn't very good. The property manager called while we were on our way out to let us know where to pick up the key (they had to close early.) and communication on their part was exceptional. If I had a question, I had my reply usually the same day. I would definately recommend this property.

Had a wonderful stay at Talboys at Windwood. It was comfortable, clean and well equipped for all needs.
Getaway Excellence
by Todd U.
I needed a retreat from which I could finish my latest screenplay, and Talboys at Windwood perfectly fit the bill. Not only was I able to finish said project, but I was able to do so from a quiet, and cozy nook nestled among West Virginia's Canaan Valley
February 25, 2015 - Escapia
Perfect for a ski weekend with friends
The house was lovely and comfortable, easy to access and very close to the slopes.

Talboys
by Istvan K.
Beautiful house,very nice environment.absolutely loved the fire place.Could use an upgrade on sheets and comforters, and there is no hairdryer.I would recommend it to everybody.
October 30, 2014 - Escapia
Very nice accomadations
This lovely home is exceptionally clean and well appointed. It is not the "cabin in the woods" that I really wanted, but is so convenient to everything it was well worth being in a neighborhood. It is just 30 minutes to the trails of Dolly Sods, and seems even more convenient for skiers.

Best vacation!
by Kelly D.
Talboys was just amazing. Having never been to West Virginia, being able to call this chalet our home for a week made the entire trip just perfect. Cannot wait to return!
August 26, 2014 - Escapia
Nice and pleasant
We really enjoyed our stay at Talboys, especially the hot tub, it was a great way to relax after a long day. The sleeping arrangements were great - there were 3 bedrooms and we were able to spread out. Only issue was that there were some cat hairs around and it said no pets allowed in the description.
Relaxation
by Kathleen K.
What a great place...we took 4 teenagers and a 2 year old, they all found something to do. The petting zoo at Blackwater Falls was awesome. Our house was perfect, very clean everything we could have asked for.
Almost Heaven, indeed!
What a great vacation! A wonderfully equipped and very comfortable, clean home. I highly recommend Best of Canaan -- have enjoyed their excellent services for at least two visits and intend to use them again for our usually annual family reunions. Donna is professional, courteous, and extremely accommodating. If you've shopped around, you know what a great deal this place is. If you haven't, do yourself a favor. You won't be disappointed. Just beautiful!
Canaan Vaation June 2014
by Allen M.
We had a great time. Amenities were in very good shape. Hot tub worked good. Very pleasant time of year.
Talboys Review
This is a lovely and comfortable home. We have already reserved it for a third year in a row. We have rented it for 2 families of 4 and have been comfortable for long weekends. The only negative we have is that the hot tub only worked for 1 day our first year renting and it didn't work at all our second year. We understand that things break but that has been a little frustrating.

Perfect Retreat
by Darren C.
This was a seamless transaction from beginning to end. The Best of Canaan was so easy to work with. We arrived late and the key pick up was simple. The property was so nice. It was just what we needed. The property was clean and lovely. We hope to come back again.

Cozy, Clean Chalet with Great Location
by Jody E.
We really enjoyed staying here for a long weekend with friends. The place was very cozy and clean, and very well organized. There is a new TV (not shown on website) that is great, along with the good size kitchen, great beds, and wonderful hot tub. We look forward to staying here again in the future. Enjoy!

A Great Time For New Years
The Talboys at Winwood was a great escape for eight law students. We enjoyed the cabin a lot and would recommend it to friends. We hope to visit again soon.

Talboys is a perfect family retreat!
The house sits on a large piece of land surrounded by fields and mountains. It is very well equipped inside and had more than enough room for our group of 6. The loft space above the living room adjacent to the spectacular master bedroom could easily accommodate another 2-4 people. The kitchen is conveniently labeled so you don't have to open every drawer in search of a spatula. The hot tub was a big hit and once we turned off the porch lights we could gaze up at the millions of stars overhead with almost no distraction.
The kids were not bored as the house was well stocked with all sorts of games. We also appreciated the generous supply of towels so we didn't have to do a load of laundry every time we used the tub. The location of the house is ideal as it is a stone's throw from Whitegrass where we went cross country skiing. It is also adjacent to Canaan Valley state park where there are other ski options as well. We visited in the winter, but it must be a wonderful place to go in the summer as well--seeing as it is situated near so many parks. It is also close to Davis and Thomas so you can have a night out without having to drive far. The only thing lacking was a consistent internet connection. It was a little spotty, but we remedied this by turning the router on and off several times during our stay.
We would highly recommend the house and the company. Everyone was pleasant and helpful (even though we were calling them on Christmas Day for directions).

Wonderful Place to Stay!!!
by Sam B.
This cabin was excellent! It has been newly renovated and is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The location was nice, quiet, and just off of Rt. 32. Very easy to get to. Loved the experience. Price was very reasonable! I would happily recommend this cabin to anyone interested in vacationing in this area.
Awesome vacation home
Great vacation home overall. Very clean and well maintained, couldn't ask for a better place to spend a long weekend getaway. The weather was a little cooler during our springtime stay and the heat was not working when we arrived, but the rental company had someone there within just a few minutes of our call to check it out. Great customer service, would definitely rent through Best of Canaan again, and would absolutely stay at Talboys again!
Wonderful Vanetines Day!
by Lisbeth T.
Absolutely wonderful place. The only thing negative was the ice maker was broken and did not work, and we had to buy bags of ice. The owner needs to get that fixed, or replace the refrigerator.

Can't wait to come back to Talboys
Talboys at Windwood is a generously decorated and stocked lovely home. It was perfect for our 2 families of 4. We can't wait to come back.

What a Wonderful Place to Stay
by Angela S.
We had a great time in the gorgeous Canaan Valley. What a treasure of a place, I can't wait to return. The rental property was even better than the website looked, the location was great, and we could not get to all the things we wanted to do in only one week. I can't wait to return.

Great winter getaway
by Kristy B.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Windwood Ya! All the of bedrooms were comfortable and spacious; the loft is lovely - I did yoga up there in the morning with the sun beaming through. Probably our favorite two things were the hottub and the fireplace. We did a lot of playing games and relaxing. Highly recommend. Great value

Great Location
Great central location to Blackwater Falls, Canaan Valley and Timberland.
December 11, 2011 - Escapia
It was a beautiful place and the beds were super comfortable!
The house is beautiful and fully furnished down to the silverware and towles. The suroundings are lovely but not as private as I would have liked. We really loved the hot tub. We also thought it was cool that there were DVD's and CD's to use. All in all a wonderful getaway! Thanks Best of Canaan!
December 7, 2011 - Escapia
Thanks, folks! Excellent stay!
by Ruth M.
The one detractor in our stay was that we arrived after dark and the directions weren't all that obvious. We got to the right cul de sac but spent several minutes peeking into other ppl's driveways (sorry neighbors!) til we found the windwood. Wonder if y'all could provide just a little more heads up bc the street addresses are mixed up(bounce back and forth bw 18 & 200 & back to 30..)
Otherwise- MANY thanks for having the hot tub preheated to a lovely temp on arrival. Fireplace was easy and delightful to use. Bedrooms comfortable and kitchen functional.
We're whitegrass folks and this spot was very convenient. Our thanks!
December 5, 2011 - Escapia
Amazing!
by Barbara O.
Absolutely loved the Windwood, it was cozy but still large enough for 7 people. Donna, the agent, was such a great help in the reservation process! We had a mini problem with the hot tub, (it wasn't hot enough) so one call to the office and they were quick and very helpful and in no time we were able to hop in and enjoy the rest of our stay. Definitely recommend this cabin and Best of Cannan.

Family vacation
by Alison B.
the cabin was beautiful we were very happy but during our stay they showed the property to a possible buyer we felt it was unprofessional while on family vacation (we felt obligated to say yes)
Alison, We do apologize for having to show the house during your stay but do thank you for allowing us to come in during your vacation. Please know, we do try to schedule home showings when the homes are unoccupied but unfortunatly that is sometimes not possible. We do call before a showing to ask permission, in the future, if this would happen to you again, just let the agent know you would prefer to not have the house shown during your stay and we will make every effort to accomodate. We are delighted you enjoyed the home! Please come visit again soon.

Loved this Getaway
I would say that this cottage is a best kept secret. It's perfect for anyone with pastures with horse grazing on it on one side and the wildflowers on the other. Great for walks and exploration with kids. I loved the location close to the ski areas and
shops. Could not be a better mountain getway. The cottage itself is very well equipped-every bedroom, bathroom and kitchen too.
Nice Flat Yard!
by Sarah P.
Large flat yard was perfect for our 2 year old to ride his bike and hit homeruns! Didn't have to worry about him falling off of the deck. Pool at the resort was awesome although not heated so it was a little cool. Tons of towels so that was great. Beds were not comfortable nor were the pillows - next time will bring our own pillows. Location was awesome!!
A Little R&R
by Cynthia G.
We were very happy with our stay. The cabin was perfect. The only problem we had was we did not use the loft because the TV was not working. But, overall beutiful place to stay. I would recommend this place to all my friends. Thanks for the wonderful stay
