About this house rental
Leave your cares behind and escape to this beautiful post and beam masterpiece. This house features a newly remodeled bedroom on the main floor, updated appliances in the kitchen, and new furnishings throughout. The open floor plan provides ample space for reconnecting with family and friends. The fireplace in the living room is surrounded by plenty of comfortable seating while the downstairs family room features air hockey and large flat screen TV. The yard is complete with a sunken patio garden, horseshoe pits, and a hammock - perfect for a day of relaxing. The home lies in a wonderful setting where summer guests can hike, bike, hunt, or fish in the Dolly Sods Wilderness Area and Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge. Winter guests can enjoy the downhill skiing at Timberline and Canaan Resort or cross country skiing and snowshoeing at White Grass. When nighttime rolls around, whether it’s been a day on the slopes, a day in the wilderness, or a day on the couch, everyone will love gathering around the warmth of the outdoor chiminea or soaking in the large hot tub - all the while keeping an eye to the sky for that first wonderful twinkle that signals the beginning of another Starry Night. This home is protected with an outside security camera. Winter access will require 4 or all-wheel drive vehicles with appropriate tires.

We had a wonderful vacation at Starry Nights. The house is in a great location. Very quiet and secluded. Lots of deer in the yard! House was fully equipped with everything you would need to relax and forget about the world for awhile. The Living Room has a wonderful fireplace and with the weather being chilly, it was nice to build a fire and relax in the evenings. Beds were comfortable and clean. The deck on the back was perfect for us to view the eclipse! Would definitely recommend! As always, the Gals at Best of Canaan were awesome to work with. They are very special and we recommend them to everyone!

Starry Night is the best appointed house we have stayed in during our 13 visits to Old Timberline over the years. Love the wood beams, comfortable furnishings, fully stocked kitchen and 360 degree views of the woods.

We had parked two trucks in the edge of the yard, and the owner had called and asked us not to no problem we moved them. That was wrong. On our part. We should not have parked them in the grass. After that, the owner accused us for other things that was not true. He has cameras watching every movie you make. Just wonder how many cameras he has in the house .

It was the perfect place for my husband and I to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with friends. The "cabin" was beautiful and spacious with wooden beams framing the interior of the lofted ceiling. There were three sitting areas that gave privacy to anyone who wanted a quiet place to read. We planned a wedding vow renewal ceremony in the sunken garden. It was a little disappointing that the stone steps were crumbling in places so was not safe to use. The trees in the garden were large and overgrown, not as pictured in the advertising. A current picture needs to be shown. The day was beautiful and we should have some lovely pictures. We also enjoyed from the living room watching the deer as they came up into the yard.I would recommend Mama Mia's for a delicious Italian dinner and the Canaan Valley Resort Lodge for a top chef inspired dinner. Jonathan Davis, the chef at the resort, created a superb dinner for all four couples. I would highly recommend the short ribs. One day the ladies went shopping in Davis and Thomas. If you are looking for some unique gifts or antiques you will enjoy the shopping experience. Some of the fellows went hiking in Blackwater Falls and others enjoyed the solitude back at the cabin. There is also a nice hiking trail around the lake.All in all we had a wonderful time and would return again. But I would like to note that housekeeping needs to do a better job on cleaning the bathrooms and we found disgusting food in one of the casserole dishes in a drawer in the kitchen. A light bulb was out in the overhead light in one of the bedrooms downstairs. The patio chairs need replaced. There were eight of us and only for chairs we could safely sit in. These are things that can be corrected and make it a perfect getaway.

The property itself is beautiful, private, and serene. The house was big enough to accommodate our large family.
We did have an issue when one of our guests unexpectedly brought a dog. We paid a fine, but the owners graciously allowed us to continue our stay.
Upon our arrival, We found three broken, unusable patio chairs on the deck.
The numerous extra pillows would have been lovely; however, there were no extra pillowcases. The property management company/owner should tell renting clients to bring pillowcases.
The shower curtains had a distinct musty/moldy smell.
A king-size bed in the loft/master suite is a must!

Great home with separate seating areas, a beautiful deck and hot tub and stocked kitchen. Some of the furniture was fairly tired, but this is probably the norm for vacation rentals. The HOA plowed the snow immediately and Best of Canaan was very accommodating.

This is our favorite house to stay in! The house is well stocked, clean, secluded and very cozy.
If you are in for a little bit of a drive you should visit The Lodge in Alpena for a delicious dinner, link below for reference. /
We did a lot of fishing in and around this area and coming back to the hot tub was so relaxing. I will definitely be back!
Best of Canaan is a great company to rent from.

We have stayed in many houses in this community and this is truly our favorite. Well equipped kitchen (note many houses have some basic spices, salt, pepper, etc.. this did not) and plenty of space to spread out. One house next door, otherwise super isolated. So peaceful. Only wish they took pets.

We had a wonderful stay at Starry Nights. With three young kids, the quiet backyard was perfect. We loved the private driveway that made the home feel completely secluded. The inside was clean, cozy, and included everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Checking in and out was super easy and the staff were super friendly, welcoming us, giving directions straight to our rental, and providing info about local attractions. We love Starry Nights and hope to be back in the future!

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay in this beautiful home. The setting was lushly wooded and private. We enjoyed all of the outdoor space, especially the hot tub, chiminea, and dining area on the deck. The home’s large windows maximize the peaceful views, and deer visited us every day. The interior is very open and spacious, with a good-sized kitchen, large dining table, and comfy seating areas. The kitchen is well equipped with cooking gear, but unlike some rentals, does not provide any spices or staples, so bring everything you need. We did have a slight problem finding the right sleeping arrangements for each person in our group, as the twin mattresses in the lower level bedroom are sadly in need of replacement. Nonetheless, we still plan to return to this lovely home.

We are so happy we found this cabin in Timberline! We loved it so much we booked it again for next year. The house is roomy with nice furniture and most of the beds were comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and the fact this house has A/C plus ceiling fans throughout. The yard was nice and level for the kids to play and practice casting their fishing poles. The hammock and fire pit were great as well. Best Of Canaan Realty was awesome when we had to contact them with questions. They offer great customer service. We love the Timberline community and all it has to offer. Privacy, access to two lakes and two ponds and tons of trails for hiking. Even a leisure stroll down the dirt road is relaxing. Plus it is centrally located between two State parks and other attractions like Dolly Sods, Seneca Rocks & Smoke Hole Caverns.

We had a fantastic stay at Starry Nights. It is secluded, exactly as pictured and described, and has a ton of space! We were traveling with friends from DC, and it was the perfect getaway during COVID to a remote, calm, lovely spot with access to the outdoors and hiking. The hot tub is AWESOME, and we even had to turn it down because it was so hot! A few notes to make your stay even better:
+ Bring everything you need with you. This place doesn't have shampoo, soap, salt/pepper, cooking oil etc. Bring it all with you, and bring sharp knives if you like to cook.
+ They say they don't supply firewood, but there was a huge stack when we were there. There's also firewood sold around the corner if you run out.
+ The house is located at the end of a gravel road that takes about 10 minutes to travel on. In inclement weather, you really need 4WD
+ It is really annoying that you have to wash and start the dryer for the towels before 10am on check-out day. I haven't seen this policy anywhere else, so you have to build more time in to prep the house for check-out
+ We had zero cell service, but the internet was fine to work from there / have zoom calls
All in all, we had a truly wonderful stay! Would absolutely stay here again.

We were very impressed with this property! It felt like a home, from the cozy layout and pretty decor to details like games and books.
