Clean, quiet, spacious, and convenient; we will return.
A friend and I rendezvoused in the Canaan Valley in early November to hike in the nearby Dolly Sods and other trails in the area. Garagemahal was exactly as advertised: clean, quiet, spacious (for two people), and conveniently located. The owners/managers (Chip and Laurie), who live across the driveway, were friendly and available to provide information or report problems to (there weren't any), but were otherwise unobtrusive. We will return.

Very quiet and lovely woods for hiking. Only thing that could have made it better was if the table for eating could better accommodate four people.

Great Vacation
We went to get away from it all. It was quiet, comfortable and had everything you could want. We were lucky to have gorgeous weather for the entire week. We did some day trips, sightseeing type things, but always happy to come back to our little cabin in the woods.

Autumn weekend in the Canaan valley
This was a great place to stay—we loved it. Location was perfect—close to a number of great hikes and experiences. The space was charming. It had everything we needed and was incredibly clean. We would stay here again. Clear instructions from the hosts, easy parking; and easy with a young kid.

Gem of a Rental
Highly recommend this rental. This was by far the cleanest place that we have ever stayed. Our wonderful hosts provided all the amenities that made it like we were staying at home. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathroom had plenty of towels. Our dog was welcomed and he appeared to be happy there as well. All of the area attractions are within a short drive. There are even trails on the property to explore. We will come back again.

Perfect Family Getaway
This was the perfect 3-night family getaway for our family! We drove from PA and our daughter met us there from KY. We enjoyed Seneca Rocks (about 30-min away) and Glade cave in VA (2-hr drive). The owners of this home have thought of absolutely everything to make your stay the MOST enjoyable! The home is updated, extremely clean, and well very organized. The owners had excellent communication throughout with very clear instructions hanging on fridge upon arrival. The bath towels are big & soft and the sheets & quilts were so cozy! The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need! The location is quiet and relaxing. Despite our rainy weather for 2 of the 3 days, we still had a fabulous time at our Home Away From Home. Trust us, you will not regret your stay here at the Garagemahal (and we still chuckle at the name). Love it!

Great weekend getaway
My family and I were in Canaan Valley for a NICA race. The race was located at Canaan resort property which is a very short drive from this home. This home was very clean, well maintained and very nicely decorated . Perfect for 4/5 people. We enjoyed the large deck every evening/morning and the walks we took down Weiss Knob Ski road were incredible.

Wish we could have stayed here longer! Chip's place is very peaceful, set back in the woods in a quiet part of Canaan Valley. We enjoyed meeting him and exploring the area. The Garagemahal itself is comfortable and spacious, with lots of windows for ventilation on summer nights.

Wildly quiet & wonderful WV
The space was roomy & cozy & equipped with everything we needed. We wanted for nothing & our hosts were near but not hovering. THEY are amazing Hosts & we're honored to have met the "mayor" of Canaan Valley. The wild life tefuge was right there. DOLLY Sods was a skip & jump & Canaan Valley State Park is amazing (but watch for ticks) We look forward to coming back!

The house is in a great location to visit all the attractions in the area of the Canaan Valley of West Virginia. If you like hiking there are plenty of trails nearby. The house is pleasant, comfortable and well equipped. The owners Laurie and Chip are next door if you need any assistance. The mountain views are spectacular!

Almost Heaven
This was our first time visiting WV with the goal of exploring waterfalls and vistas! WV did not disappoint and nor did our selection of the GarageMahal! It is so well appointed, spotless and serene! We grilled one evening and enjoyed our meal on the deck and enjoyed the woodland sounds. The surrounding conservation area is a birdwatcher’s dream! We explored the run on the property that has a lovely little waterfall. The greatest blessing of choosing this property was our hosts Chip and Laurie! They are a pure delight, and we learned so much about the area from Chip. They are true dog lovers with two of their own and made our large, and very energetic Bernedoodle feel very loved and welcome. If you like peace and quiet, tucked away in the woodlands, no light pollution to dim the night sky, and hosts that make you feel like you’ve known them for years, this is the place to stay! We hope to return for some “Whitegrass” fun sometime!

Cozy Getaway
29 years ago my husband and I had one of our first dates in Canaan Valley. This weekend getaway was to celebrate 25 years of marriage and relieve wonderful memories. It was a short getaway but the Garagemahal was just the perfect place. Clean, cozy and comfortable. Thank you!

The place was as described and more. Very pleased with amenities and check in process. Great location for tons of trails in the area (4-7 minute drive). Highlight of the house was the fire pit and huge amount of wood that was well cut and available for us to use. Can’t beat this place.

Fantastic place for family adventure
We had a great stay at the Garagemahal! Only wish we had come when there was snow for skiing at White Grass! The place was great for our family of four. Everything was as expected. The hosts were helpful and friendly. We enjoyed the unexpectedly warm weather by hiking the area, including fantastic hiking starting from the place itself.
