Mallard Creek Cabin - Classic Escape!

Where the Mountains Whisper and Time Slows Down

Tucked deep in the woods, where the trees rustle like old friends and the stars seem just a little closer, Mallard Creek Cabin offers that kind of stay—the one you’ll still be thinking about months later when the noise of life creeps back in.

This isn’t a flashy mountain mansion. It’s something better. Simpler. Realer. A hand-built, wood stove-warmed, fire pit-glowing kind of place where you can reconnect with what matters most—your people, your peace, and maybe your playlist (yes, there’s WiFi).

Wrapped in woods, warmed by firelight

Step out onto the wrap-around porch, hot mug in hand, and you’ll see what we mean. It’s quiet here—except for the occasional birdsong or wind through the trees. Come sunset, that view over the mountains will stop you mid-sentence. And the hot tub? That’s your front-row seat to every golden hour and starlit sky.

Inside, you’ll find:

✅ Two cozy bedrooms, three beds total — Sleeps up to 6
✅ One full bathroom — Clean, comfortable, and well-stocked
✅ Wood stove for chilly nights and a propane grill for dinner under the stars
✅ Full kitchen, comfy living room with games, and solid WiFi for streaming or working (but hopefully not too much of that)

Yes, you can bring the dog

Fido’s welcome here, because let’s be honest—what’s a cabin weekend without your trail buddy? There’s room to roam and snuffle and nap by the fire.

Let nature plan your itinerary

You don’t need much of a plan here. Wander down a nearby hiking trail. Bring a rod and test the quiet fishing spots. Or just sit on the porch and do a whole lot of nothing. Sometimes that’s the whole point.

And when you do want to explore, Berkeley Springs is just a short drive away—full of local shops, spa days, and spots for a good pint.

The extras that make it special

✅ Hot tub under the stars
✅ Pet friendly (tails wag free)
✅ Toys for the children
✅ Fire pit + wood stove (you’ll want s’mores)
✅ Propane grill for casual dinners
✅ Games and good vibes
✅ Surrounded by forest and mountain views
✅ Clean, comfy, and unpretentious

Booking tip

Mallard Creek is a guest favorite for a reason—private, peaceful, and surprisingly affordable. If your dates are open, grab them while you can. It books quickly, especially in fall and spring.

You’re not just booking a stay. You’re borrowing a slower pace of life. One porch sit, one crackling fire, and one deep breath at a time.

So—what are you waiting for?
