Perfect winter escape!!!
Clean, spacious, open concept space with two bedrooms, both with a queen bed. One has a twin bed and sheets in closet! Basic but high quality cookware to use, which is always a plus! Easy communications with Chip and Laurie, such kind people!!! The ideal location for XC skiing! Honestly, cannot beat it. Felt like the luckiest people all weekend!

Clean, quiet, spacious, and convenient; we will return.
A friend and I rendezvoused in the Canaan Valley in early November to hike in the nearby Dolly Sods and other trails in the area. Garagemahal was exactly as advertised: clean, quiet, spacious (for two people), and conveniently located. The owners/managers (Chip and Laurie), who live across the driveway, were friendly and available to provide information or report problems to (there weren't any), but were otherwise unobtrusive. We will return.

Very quiet and lovely woods for hiking. Only thing that could have made it better was if the table for eating could better accommodate four people.

Great Vacation
We went to get away from it all. It was quiet, comfortable and had everything you could want. We were lucky to have gorgeous weather for the entire week. We did some day trips, sightseeing type things, but always happy to come back to our little cabin in the woods.

Autumn weekend in the Canaan valley
This was a great place to stay—we loved it. Location was perfect—close to a number of great hikes and experiences. The space was charming. It had everything we needed and was incredibly clean. We would stay here again. Clear instructions from the hosts, easy parking; and easy with a young kid.

Gem of a Rental
Highly recommend this rental. This was by far the cleanest place that we have ever stayed. Our wonderful hosts provided all the amenities that made it like we were staying at home. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathroom had plenty of towels. Our dog was welcomed and he appeared to be happy there as well. All of the area attractions are within a short drive. There are even trails on the property to explore. We will come back again.

Perfect Family Getaway
This was the perfect 3-night family getaway for our family! We drove from PA and our daughter met us there from KY. We enjoyed Seneca Rocks (about 30-min away) and Glade cave in VA (2-hr drive). The owners of this home have thought of absolutely everything to make your stay the MOST enjoyable! The home is updated, extremely clean, and well very organized. The owners had excellent communication throughout with very clear instructions hanging on fridge upon arrival. The bath towels are big & soft and the sheets & quilts were so cozy! The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need! The location is quiet and relaxing. Despite our rainy weather for 2 of the 3 days, we still had a fabulous time at our Home Away From Home. Trust us, you will not regret your stay here at the Garagemahal (and we still chuckle at the name). Love it!

Great weekend getaway
My family and I were in Canaan Valley for a NICA race. The race was located at Canaan resort property which is a very short drive from this home. This home was very clean, well maintained and very nicely decorated . Perfect for 4/5 people. We enjoyed the large deck every evening/morning and the walks we took down Weiss Knob Ski road were incredible.

Wonderful relaxing retreat
I loved staying here and it was the quiet, relaxing, and serene location that I needed to get away from the hustle and bustle. The kitchen was well stocked on cooking utensils and appliances so I could cook a few times while here. The closeness to all of the nature and hiking areas was one of the many perks. I couldnt recommend this place enough!!! Would rebook here in a heartbeat.

Wish we could have stayed here longer! Chip's place is very peaceful, set back in the woods in a quiet part of Canaan Valley. We enjoyed meeting him and exploring the area. The Garagemahal itself is comfortable and spacious, with lots of windows for ventilation on summer nights.

The space was roomy & cozy & equipped with everything we needed. We wanted for nothing & our hosts were near but not hovering. THEY are amazing Hosts & we're honored to have met the "mayor" of Canaan Valley. The wild life tefuge was right there. DOLLY Sods was a skip & jump & Canaan Valley State Park is amazing (but watch for ticks) We look forward to coming back!
