Great house, perfect location!
by Andrew C.
We had a great time. The house is great!
A couple of suggestions. It would be great to have a place inside to store ski boots and skis. We did our best to keep the boots on the front mat but it was crowded.
Also, it would be great to have a path and stairs up to the Hotel parking area.

Our Favorite New Year’s Tradition
by Jess F.
Our family has been coming to the Ski Hive for the past five years over the New Year’s Eve holiday, and it truly could not be more perfect for us. It has become a place we genuinely look forward to returning to every year and truly feels like our home away from home. The house has the perfect amount of space for multiple families, allowing everyone to be together while still having room to relax and unwind.
The location is absolutely ideal. Being within walking distance to the ski lift makes everything so easy and enjoyable, especially when traveling with kids and all the ski gear. That convenience alone takes so much stress out of the trip and allows us to fully enjoy our time together at Timberline.
The home is always incredibly clean, well maintained, and in excellent condition. It is clear how much care and pride go into keeping the property welcoming and comfortable for guests. Every detail makes the stay feel thoughtful and intentional.
The vacation rental management staff has also been wonderful to work with. They are responsive, professional, and kind, and communication has always been clear from booking through check out. Everything runs smoothly, which makes the entire experience effortless.
We cannot recommend the Ski Hive enough for families or groups looking for a special place to make lasting memories. We are so grateful to have found it and look forward to returning year after year as part of our family tradition.

Skiing with littles
by tamara w.
Easy booking and check in process. great set-up for 2 families sharing home with 2 bedrooms at opposite ends of home. Good location, but tough walk (up a steep incline out the back to parking lot) Well stocked kitchen, lots of linens. Great Stay
We are happy to hear Ski Hive was a great fit for your accommodations with two families. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again!

Five-Star Review: The Ski Hive in Davis, WV
by Jess F.
The Ski Hive is truly the perfect getaway for a multi-family vacation! From the moment we arrived, it was clear this spot was designed with convenience and comfort in mind. The setup is ideal for accommodating multiple families, with plenty of space to gather and enjoy time together while still offering room for privacy when needed.
One of the highlights is its unbeatable location—just a short walk to the lift at Timberline Ski Resort! It couldn’t be easier to hit the slopes and make the most of every ski day.
The town of Davis, with its charming shops and excellent restaurants, adds so much to the experience. We also loved exploring nearby Thomas, which has its own unique vibe and fantastic dining options.
The Ski Hive offers everything needed for a relaxing, fun, and memorable trip. We’ll absolutely be back!

A VEry Pleasant Long Weekend in Ski Hive
by Bruce W.
Ski Hive was the ideal rental for our long Labor Day weekend in Canaan Valley. We needed all four bedrooms for our group. The beds were super, there were plentiful comfortable places for people to sit, the appliances were up-to-date, there were puzzles and games, everything was clean, the house was well appointed, the lot was spacious, and there was plenty of space for parking. Thanks to Best of Canaan for finding the perfect rental in Timberline for our group,
We are happy to hear the Ski Hive was a great fit for your group and you enjoyed your time in Timberline. Thank you for your review and we hope to see you again!

Our Favorite Rental so far
by Kimberly R.
We have stayed at numerous places for skiing and hiling in Canaan Valley, but this was our favorite place so far! It is roomy, comfortable, and has all the amenities that you would need for your stay. We were impressed with all the dishes, pans, spices and other essentials. It may be a small thing, but we loved it. There was a hairdryer in each of the bathrooms, and a fan and each of the bedrooms so we could utilize so we didn’t need to bring our own from home. I just really think of the little things as well as the big things that you may need on your vacation!!

Ski Hive
by Steve J.
It was a lovely house with any amenity you could possibly want. A short walk to the slopes and a wonderful fireplace to warm up to at the end of day. Will definitely go back.

Cozy weekend stay
by Justice N.
My family and I travel down to Canaan Valley every year in October and this house was probably one of the cleanest houses we’ve stayed in. The layout was open and fit our large group very well. The hot tub was very large and was able to fit 5 of us comfortably. My daughter enjoyed being able to watch the deer eat in the front yard from the living rooms large windows. Very nice property for a relaxing weekend away.
We are thrilled to hear you had a pleasant experience at Ski Hive. We look forward to your return!

Fourth of July part Two
by Ronald R.
Second year in row renting this property.
We love this house so much. The layout is perfect for us. Well furnished kitchen. Very relaxing and quiet neighborhood. The hot tub was only Luke warm, upon checkout the office informed us that we should of called them, so they could reset it. The hot tub cover had mildew on it and smelled moldy. The television is outdated and really needs to be upgraded to a smart tv. We had plenty of apps we could use, but no way to access the television. Living room furniture is not very comfortable. All in all a great vacation. Really want to rent this house again next year too. Anyway we can find out if any of are concerns were addressed?

Relax at Ski Hive
We had a wonderful time. Everything was well stocked.
The only disappointing thing was that the grill was not working. Quiet, peaceful and centrally located.

Perfect Get-Away

We enjoyed our long weekend and were pleasantly surprised by ALL of the amenities available at the house - they thought of everything! A great location to Timberline.

Immaculately Clean and Very Comfortable
by Catherine M.
This was the perfect house for our group of 5. With 4 bedrooms, one couple had a room and the rest of us had our own bedroom. The kitchen is really well stocked with every dish and utensil you might need and plenty of spices, oil, coffee, etc. We found plenty of paper goods for our 4 night stay, too. We saw several deer from the big front window. It was warm enough that we did not make a fire in the fireplace, but there was plenty of wood to start one if desired. We enjoyed the hot tub one evening but it didn't quite get hot enough.
The house is very close to the Timberline base area and not far from Canaan Valley, the town of Davis, and other attractions. We enjoyed Blackwater Fall State Park and Seneca Rocks for some apres ski hiking and sight seeing.

Our Happy Place
by Jess F.
With all the comforts of home and the escape from the daily routines, the Ski Hive is the whole package. Not a single need or desire was unmet. The short walk to the ski lifts allow you to focus more on skiing instead of packing the car and dealing with long walks from the parking lot. A kitchen full of amenities allows family dinner to be cooked every evening versus fighting lines at the local restaurant options. There is ample space for a large family to spread out and each member to find a cozy space to call their own. We highly recommend a stay at the Ski Hive! We will definitely return.
We couldn't have said it better ourselves! Thank you for your great review of Ski Hive. We look forward to your return!

Ski Hive Five Stars
by Noelle G.
Perfect cabin layout for a midsized group. We had 7 people spread out over 4 rooms. The family room kitchen area was the center of the cabin and made gathering for meals, games, and TV fun. Fireplace very nice!!! Stocked well with pots and pans and casserole dishes. We only ate out once. Easy access to the slopes. Not exactly a ski in and ski out but just a short walk out the back door and across a parking lot gets you to the lifts. Would definitely recommend and would rent the Ski Hive again.
Thank you for leaving a review of your stay at Ski Hive. We are thrilled you enjoyed your time here and look forward to your return!

Wonderful
Wonderful property, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped for all our needs.
There are no many board games for families to play (or I did not find them). Walking distance from the lift if you go to ski. I would rent it again!

Fourth Of July Holiday
by Ronald R.
The house was wonderful, really felt more like a home. The house had every known gadget, pot, pan or utensils you could ever desire. Nice selection of beds with different levels of firmness. Overall the place was really clean. Our only recommendation to the owners, would be to replace the two black chairs in the living room with oversized recliners. Would be happy to purchase this house if you ever want to sell.
Thank you for your review! So glad you loved the Ski Hive.

Perfect family ski getaway spot
We loved Ski Hive! Plenty of beds to spread out, good kitchen and dining table, comfy living area, incredible hot tub (feels very clean and new), and being walking distance from Timberline is truly amazing! The couches/chairs/linens could have been slightly higher quality, or decor a bit lighter and brighter in general, but otherwise we had no complaints. Very quiet neighborhood and peaceful area, and only a 15 minute drive from the big city (Davis) for food and essentials.
Hi Christie,
We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Ski Hive. Come see us again soon!
