About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A spectacular space for every season-in winter a real skier's destination!

The dictionary tells us that a lodge is a place where one-or in this case 18-come to rest. BINGO! This fantastic 8 bedroom home provides the convenience of slope side skiing on Timberline Mountains Winterset Trail. Love it!! Year-round Lost River Lodge offers comfortable accommodations. Perfect for a family or friend reunion, enjoy well thought out amenities that include multiple TV’s, WIFI, a fully equipped kitchen, wood burning fireplace and more! Professional or amateur astronomers will love spending part of the evening in the outdoor hot tub. It’s a short drive to Blackwater Falls, Thomas, and Davis. For sure this one is a win/win!

Perfect place for our family
We had 17 guests and everyone was comfortable! We loved the large community space where we could all hang out at night. Hot tub was great, location was awesome as some of us hiked to the top of the mountain every morning! Staff was very responsive for garbage pick up and hot tub shocking regularly.

Nice location
Spacious. We enjoyed hot tub and air hockey. House is dated and needs work -leaks paint and not many paper products provided. (Example napkins, trash bags and hand soaps) but clean and beautiful location.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've been staying 4 nights at Lost River Lodge, both summer and winter for over 20 years. We've always enjoyed enjoyed our stay, and this year was no exception. We've booked again for summer '25, and look forward to it already. The house comfortably fits our 8 couples. The house is beginning to show a little bit of minor wear though, but nothing serious.

The cabin was rented for a ladies only group retreat we stayed 3 nights and the cabin was very spacious throughout and plenty of great outdoor space on the deck ad well. We would Definitely recommend and we hope to be back again if the opportunity comes up again. Thank you Andi and staff at The Best of Canaan. TWC life group.

Best Summer Weekend!
This property was clean, spacious, and well taken care of. There was toilet paper, linens, and cleaning supplies available. The location was easy to get to. You are close to the neighbors, and there isn't much of a yard. There is an amazing porch/deck and an awesome giant couch and dining room table. The listing says 18 people, but we decided that at least 24 people could comfortably stay there if needed.

Critique of 4-day stay at Lost River Lodge
Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We take 4 days every spring to enjoy the peace and quiet of the Canaan Valley. Our group, of approximately 16 adults has been doing this for almost 40 years. We love the place. We started by staying during only winter months, but, due to age have pretty much switched to summer. The hiking and comeraderie are the most popular activities, and we still ski a little bit. Lost River Lodge provides a well-equipped, pleasant experience, that is centrally located.

Perfect spot for a multifamily vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We took a multifamily vacation to this house. 15 people, and we never felt crowded. A lot of the furniture is older, but it’s very sturdy. The house is very clean. Hot tub worked great and was a wonderful treat for the kids. Right on the ski slope. The kitchen was equipped with so many pots pans, and all the things that you would need to cook family dinners as well as coffee pots, and Keurig. Also a second fridge in the laundry room. Office staff were extremely friendly and helpful when we had trouble with the Wi-Fi. (Our fault, not theirs)Would recommend to anyone.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The space was great for our group of 11 adults. We felt it could have been cleaner. Some of the furniture is tired and worn as are the pots and pans. The BBQ was very dirty. The roof leaked so the couch was wet and we had a rainy week. TV converters were missing in bedrooms and some not working properly. We made the best of the trip and had a good time anyway.

Annual Ski trip Timberline
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were fortunate to book this property for our group of friends who has been enjoying annual ski trip to Timberline for over 15 years. The location is fabulous and the layout and room configuration worked out perfectly for 5 couples +. The hot tub was 🔥, the game table saw some competition and the large long high dining table hosted some good games as well. The couch is dangerous, if you want to stay awake! The kitchen had all the essentials, including crockpot. The home was clean and comfortable. Beware, this property will be booked annually by our group...

Great space but very tired home
This home needs a good deep cleaning, blinds are dusty, table trestle is dusty, the kitchen floor needs refinishing, baking cookware is worn out, all light switches are dirty, outside stairs and railing needs refinishing, light bulbs are out, water pressure on upstairs showers are weak and as for heat and a/c downstairs is really really cold, upstairs is really hot and main floor has closest to the correct temperature. That being said, it is well furnished, has multiple coffee pots, plenty of dishes and silverware, wonderful gas stove, two refrigerators and although the kitchen refrigerator ice maker is broken, the laundry room fridge’s ice maker works. Bed linens were nice. I think a good addition would be to provide liquid shower soap in every shower rather than little soaps. Same with hand soap, liquid soap—it would not make such a mess as the little soaps do. As a former VRBO owner of a big house in Lake Tahoe that slept 25, I found going spring and fall for the “big clean” helped keep the maintenance issues under control. Also, for the price paid, I think two rolls of toilet paper is cheap and two rolls of paper towels also. I never made my guests have to pay for paper products or shower soap. This was a family wedding event that turned out to be two hours away from the house. We liked being all together.

Excellent time of year to experience Cannan Valley. Some furniture removed since past year and not replaced. Hot tub cover and headrests could use improving. Loved the Adirondack polywood chairs(a few additional would be excellent). Overall love coming here.

4th of July Family Weekend
The cabin was spacious and accommodated or group of 13 very well. Every family had their own bathroom and bedroom with Queen or king beds. Our grandson loved having his own room with two twins. There is plenty of space to spread everyone out but space for family times was nice too. The outside deck and hot tub were enjoyed by all. We had a fire in the fire pit and the family enjoyed that as well. The kitchen had everything we needed for our family meals. The only improvement that needs to be addressed is the outdoor grilling situation. The gas grill would not light and the charcoal grill has seen it’s better days. All in all it was the perfect house for our family. It’s so close to the darling towns of Thomas and Davis and Blackwater Falls and Canaan Valley Resort. This is our second summer in the area and there is do much to see and do!
