A MODERN MOUNTAIN RETREAT LOCATED IN THE FOREST OF BERKELEY SPRINGS, WV

Surrounded by 5 private wooded acres, sits a minimally-modern black cabin tucked between the Appalachian ridges of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. This cabin, Forest House, was designed to encourage escape, relaxation, and reflection. Whatever your need, Forest House holds space - just a two hour drive from Washington, DC & Baltimore.

A THOUGHTFUL ESCAPE

THE SPACE
