About this house rental
Serene with lots of special touches, this beautiful mountain home is well equipped for comfort and convenience. Mother Nature will surround you as you relax in the outdoor hot tub or read on the large private deck. Consider watching a classic movie by a cozy fire after you have finished preparing your favorite meal in the fully equipped kitchen or retreat to the deck for a beverage and amazing star-gazing. Hikers will love the location. This charming cottage provides incredibly easy access to Dolly Sods and all of its beauty! Winter visits will require a 4-wheel drive the spacious carport makes loading and unloading an easier process. Although Foxwood is certainly in a private, secluded setting, it is an easy drive to the slopes at either Timberline or Canaan Valley. Summer visitors can be at Canaan's golf course in no more than 15 minutes!

We were at Foxwood for five days and had a wonderful experience. The house looked exactly like the photos! It was very clean. We loved the location of the house. It is very secluded so it is extremely quiet and peaceful, serene and peaceful. The hot tub on the back deck was wonderful on the cool mornings. This is a place that I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away for a few days.

We stayed here for a little family vacation. 6 adults and we fit comfortably. We got snowed in with 24 inches of snow but we enjoyed our weekend here. Some minimal upgrades to the cabin would be great but overall a nice home!

The cabin itself was great. We read a lot of the reviews and the description of the property which I would say was pretty accurate. The property the home is in is absolutely beautiful. The fishing spots were amazing. The cabin itself could do with a good cleaning. We had an issue with ants in the kitchen so we cleaned everything up that was in the sink and ran the disposal that had food in it still. That took care of the problem for the most part. Otherwise we loved this cabin and would definitely stay there again.

On arrival at the cabin it clearly showed that it was long overdue for a refurbishing session especially on the deck area which is where I had planned we would spend most of our evenings.Unfortunately this was far below what I expected and impacted the enjoyment for our family after we had returned each day from activities ans were looking to relax outside.The BBQ was in a burnt out state and couldn’t be used. The outdoor bin that holds the cushions to sit on was so old it didn’t stop the animals from getting in ans making nests inside the cushions resulting in us not even contemplating using them, they need replacing immediately. The hot tub wasn’t clean and kept malfunctioning so we gave up on using that so couldn’t relaxed at night after a hard hike. Inside was musty but I expected that but otherwise adequate for our needs.I wouldn’t stay in this cabin again and urge the park management to contact the owners for complete refurb to the porch and the equipment, there was also rotten planks on the wooden table ans the porch itself.

We really enjoyed our stay at Foxwood. The proximity to Dolly Sods was amazing---we hiked there everyday we were there. It was a 5-minute drive to amazing hikes where we saw few people. The house was clean and the kitchen had many, many things! Also, I've stayed at many VRBOs and things like dirty potholders gross me out. There was nothing like that here! Everything in the kitchen was clean and ready to use! I also loved all the hooks! VRBOs rarely have hooks and it's so nice to be able to hang up damp hiking gear, etc. Just 2 suggestions: 1. Figure out the musty smell in the downstairs hall/bedroom. It was really the only thing that might keep us from staying there again....and we probably would stay anyway since none of us have allergies. 2. Is there a way to allow guests to turn on/off the hot tub filter jets? While we enjoyed it and loved that it was super clean, I would have loved to be able to listen to the woods/creek nearby more often, but the hot tub was on a timer and the noise drowned out the forest sounds. But, overall, we would recommend this place and stay there again.

Property was nice does need some upgrades, loved the hot tub, and dog friendly places and how the deck had gates, and dogs loved the dog door to go out on the deck, and loved the fox theam threw out the house.

We enjoyed our stay at Foxwood, it was quiet and secluded and we loved being in the trees, but the property itself could use some maintenance. There were a lot of downed big limbs on the property, and the outside could have used some attention. Of 2 coffee pots, only one halfway worked. The deadbolt on the front door was the only lock that worked, the upstairs shower door kept coming off track, the upstairs bathroom door from the bedroom with the bunkbeds was not able to close properly, and one of the door's handles leading to the deck was broken. There was also a resident Mr. Jingles who came out each evening to entertain. The cabin also had 8 can openers but not one wooden spoon. Just very odd eclectic kitchen items, as most vacation cabins have. I also was just a little creeped out by all the foxes displayed, a bit overkill. If attention was shown to the place, it would have been lovely. As it was, i was a bit irritated that no partial refund was offered . Would stay in the area again, but not that particular cabin.

Despite a no snow event, my family really loved getting together for our annual winter getaway. Our rental was perfect with a cozy fireplace and relaxing hot tub, which provided us with a great place to soak after some fairly aggressive hiking. Plan to come back next year.

We visited this property before for our 10yr wedding anniversary. We returned several years later for a thanksgiving stay with the kids. This time we returned to celebrate our 26 yr anniversary. The place shows some wear & tear (like I do!), but is still a really nice place to stay. The bed was very comfortable and everything was very clean.. If you’re there, a must visit is the Purple Fiddle in Thomas for some really good music. The area is fantastic in the fall and Blackwater falls is nice place to visit and go hiking as well.

A great location, spacious, big nice porch with feeling of being in the woods. Equipped with basic kitchen requirements. Furniture and decorations were a trip in a time machine. There was a strong musty smell. General maintenance was insufficient. The smell of the hot tub was to high in chlorine. The price of the rental reflected the value

Absolutely Beautiful!
This property is absolutely beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub as we do not have one at home! Our kids are 15 and 11. This was our very first time "Glamping" as we usually tent camp but decided for some luxury this year and we were not disappointed! Overall the house is very clean! Others had commented on the dusty fans which was true but again we're used to being in a tent in the pouring rain so we honestly felt right at home:-) The staff who checked us in and out were friendly. There were signs of a mouse in the room with the bunkbeds but we reported that to the check out people and they said they would take care of that. We would return in a heartbeat!

This is a nice little cottage that has one major flaw, which is the living room furniture. The couch and loveseat are not only stained and torn, but they are both broken enough so that the springs can be felt on your back. The back of the loveseat is broken in half and cushions for both couch and loveseat are supported by long pieces of plywood. Laughably bad - until you have to sit on them for more than 20 minutes. There is also a worn chair (with ottoman) that isn't much better and a pile of bean bags that feel like you're sitting on foam rocks. The worst part of this experience is that several other reviewers have mentioned the furniture being bad, but we assumed they'd have been replaced by the time we went... big mistake!
The upsides of the cabin are that the hot tub appears to be brand new and clean, the beds were all comfortable and there were plenty of dishware/utensils to go around. The location is awesome as you're surrounded by woods on all sides, and the charcoal grill was also in good shape. The wood stove is small but also worked well, and the last renters left behind some wood to get us started (so we did the same).
The cleanliness of the cottage was only so-so, the major areas (kitchen counters, bathrooms, floors, bed linens) were all clean but other areas needed some major dusting and cleaning (windows, beams, light fixtures etc. all covered in dust/cobwebs) and there were dirty linens left behind by the previous tenant sitting in the washing machine. We ended up doing some minor repairs/cleaning while we were there (fixed vacuum, LR clock, cleaned kitchen light, etc.) so the place is cleaner now than how we found it. The dryer also didn’t work well as it took 2 cycles to dry one load of linens.
The property managers at BOC are very friendly and receptive and I'm confident they will resolve any issues within their control; they also promised to inform the owner again of the furniture.

Very nice location in the mountains. Surrounded by forest. Peaceful and charming. Minutes to the multiple ski slopes. Great hill for the kids to slide. (Unfortunately, there were no sleds available at the property for the kids). The place was clean and the kitchen very well equipped. On the downside there is some animal living in the wall and you can hear it all night in the top master bedroom. I tried to contact and chat with the owner to let them know, but no response. Also, the hot top had some dirt and small papers floating in it. Not attractive. Overall we enjoyed our stay there and had lots of fun outside skiing, sledding and building snow forces. Thank you!

We love this location after staying here several times. However, I don't think we can stay here again until the couch are replaced. By the end of each day our back were killing us from the lack of support of the couches. This makes us sad but not good to return from vacation with a sore back. We both experienced the same thing.

This rental was very private and secluded considering its in a resort. Was a great stay and very relaxing, great for dogs. A few things I did not like, but they in no way ruined my vacation. While the cleaner was good with surface cleaning, laundry and bed making etc. You really need to get a heavy duty cleaning crew in on ladders or scaffold and clean the cobwebs and dust out of places that the cleaner cant reach. Also the TV in the master bedroom is junk. It buzzes from the speaker, then a day later the picture was tearing or scrambling. I unplugged it for the day, and that helped the picture. But you need to replace that TV. All and all, except for a few annoyances, I would stay here again.

They charge a cleaning fee yet you feel gross due to the lack of cleanliness. The rugs and quilts looked dirty and so were the pot holders. The King bed quilt had fresh blood stains. The kitchen closet is full of dirty looking linens and junk. They only have ceiling fans which need to be cleaned. We could only reach the one in the The do not have not central air, offer no window units or fans. We bought food for the week and the bread molded due to the heat. Some of my pills disintegrated in the pill pack because of the heat/humidity. I have a chronic illness so I could barely function until we went out and I could have cool air. The cooler days it was cooler at night and the windows could be opened to help a little but the kids have allergies. I grew up in poverty in WV. The said the kitchen was well stocked however there is a 40 year old blender and no pizza pans. The only baking pan was rusted. There was only one big, sharp knife. The others wouldn't cut hot butter. I never dreamed I would pay this much money to spend a week living like I was in poverty again. Very disappointed.

The location of the house is excellent, very quiet. The house itself needs some work. I'm pretty sure the couches are older than me and I celebrated my 32nd birthday on this trip. They really need to be replaced, you can feel and hear the springs through the back cushions. There's some other wear and tear things throughout the house that need to be spruced up and fixed, like dirt marks and all the mismatched lightbulbs. Many of the lamps are three-way lamps but only had one-way bulbs. Not the end of the world but it's such an easy improvement that doesn't cost a ton. The kitchen is mostly well-stocked with equipment, but if you're planning on doing a lot of cooking, I highly suggest bringing your own chef's knife because the kitchen only had like 24 serrated paring knives... We only slept in the king-sized bed and the mattress was fine. Both bathrooms were adequate. The deck and hot tub were really nice and the dog gates were great. The house does have a dog crate in the living room area but the latch is broken so bring your own if you need it. Overall, it was a relaxing, quiet week, I just hope the owners replace those couches...

House was just as it was described and looked in the photos. It was simultaneously cozy and spacious. It was dog-friendly but very clean so that you wouldn't know it. We were very close to Dolly Sod's hiking trails, which is what we wanted but the towns of Davis and Thomas were only a 15-20 minute drive away if we wanted/needed anything. Would definitely stay here again.
