Charming and cozy - a perfect Christmas

5 of 5
Submitted: January 6, 2010 Stayed: December 2009
Moonridge Cottage was even more than I had hoped for. My boyfriend and I wanted to do something special to celebrate our Christmas, and thought an out-of-the-way (but convenient) cabin in the woods would be perfect. And it was. I was delighted with the special care that Bobby took to make the cabin cozy and festive. Upon our arrival, the wood stove was burning, the tree decorated, and wine waiting on the table. Fresh bread was served to complete the homey atmosphere. Bobby could not have been more accomodating with our early arrival and late departure. Our stay was wonderful, and will return in the spring to enjoy the next phase of mother nature.

Spring break 2013

5 of 5
Submitted: March 29, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We rented Moonridge for our kids' spring break (they are 11 and 8). The cottage was adorable and Bobby took good care of us. It snowed when we arrived, which was fantastic, and Bobby had someone plowing the drive the next morning. There was no stress, no worries. We loved the area - we went to Harpers Ferry 3 times, as well as Shepherdstown (which we loved), Charles Town (which was OK), and Antietum. The area has incredible history and there is tons to do. The cottage is warm and cozy, which was nice, since it was chilly. I loved having wifi too. Thanks, Bobby.

A Perfect Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: February 26, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This past weekend, my husband, 3 year old daughter, two dogs and I went to Moonridge for a weekend away from our busy work lives and the bustle of the city. From the moment we arrived we knew we were in for a treat. The cabin is PERFECTLY decorated..not too much not too little rustic decor. Bobbi's paintings are just fantastic and being in an artist studio was great. The wood burning stove kept us toasty and gave a snuggly vibe. Our 10 year old and 8 year old dogs loved being there and exploring the Civil War battlefields. My little girl was in her glory with all the toys, (doll house, rocking horse, lincoln logs...and much more) She also loved finding all the pigs which fondly decorate her bedroom. Our master bedroom was delicately decorated and was lovely. To sum it up for you, our daughter said "Mommy can we stay at the Red House for ever and ever?" A question that ran through our minds as well!

Holiday Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: November 26, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
We were looking for a quiet mountain retreat for Thanksgiving weekend and Moonridge was just the place. The kitchen had everything we needed and Bobby even provided a roasting pan for our turkey. The property description is completely accurate and Moonridge is just secluded enough to make you feel like you are really out in the woods and close enough to Charles Town and other local sights to allow for sight-seeing with ease. The hugh porch seems more like a tree house and the views down the valley below are impressive. The roustic cabin is clean and well-maintained and everything is there for you to enjoy a home cooked meal and a bottle wine while setting near the wood-burning stove on a cool night. Would recommend without hesitation to my friends and relatives.

Changing leaves, wood stove, fishing and Taphouse burgers = perfect Fall getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: November 6, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
Moonridge beckons so we flee the city eager for rest
We set out from Baltimore, ready for our quest
Up the steep driveway we come, car slip sliding on leaves
Orange and yellow Fall colors a tapestry weaved
The wood is dry, the fire warms up the night
We pour strong drinks, feet up by the dwindling light

A herd of deer stopped by as if for us they were wishing
For a calm and fruitful morn of Shenandoah fishing
The river shared a few bass with its guests
But fear not locals we didn’t land the biggest or best
Until later that eve when we rode into town
To catch Taphouse Burgers and beers to chase down

A hike in the woods was just what was needed
We didn’t get far, but we tarried, not speeded
The leaves we gathered, for reasons unclear
And some ended up on sticks, like a spear
Our weekend was magical, relaxing and dandy
We didn’t think once about Hurricane Sandy.
