Super relaxing spot - waking up and staring at the woods while drinking a cup of tea. Nice walking trails were there too. Also just a 5-10 minute drive to town. Little touches were great - stack of fluffy towels, kerig cups ready to go, etc.

July 4th Stay
Half Round was exactly what we were looking for to get away from the chaos and traffic of NOVA over the long holiday weekend. We spent as much time as possible on the shaded back porch enjoying the view of the woods, the sounds from the babbling brook and the cooler mountain air. The inside was just as comfortable and had everything we needed (and what we didn’t, a TV). Would absolutely come again.

Perfect getaway spot
My family and I had a wonderful long weekend stay at Half Round. The house was cozy and comfortable - and the domed ceiling in the living room full of windows was fantastic, even in the rain. The communal space is separated fromthe bedrooms with a door, which adds another level of quiet - particularly great for kids who nap or those who need to sleep through an animated game night. The wooded community is quiet and peaceful - and just secluded enough to truly feel remote. With an enjoyable neighborhood walking loop, nearby hiking paths, and an outdoor rec space with sports courts and a beautiful pool, it was the perfect balance for our young family and a wonderful mountain oasis. Morning coffee on the back deck, listening to the stream and watching the deer climb their way up the hill makes it feel like you never want to leave. But town is a quick and convenient 8-10min drive away, if you want to grab dinner or take a dip in the fresh mineral water springs. This house definitely tops our recommendation list and we hope to come back soon. Thanks!

Cozy and fun!
A great house. Windows provide a panoramic view of the gorgeous woods. The funky little fireplace heats up the room nicely and makes for great atmosphere. The amenities are nothing fancy, (a slightly better grill or a brush to clean it would be a nice touch) but it delivers a great place to gather and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The owners let us know the table was broken. Once that gets replaced we will be back for a summer trip to the woods.

Nature mid century modern a perfect weekend getaway!
We had a wonderful stay at Half Round! The view out the back of the house was lovely, and we thoroughly enjoyed the design features throughout the space. We made good use of the ample books and board games available. The hiking and biking in the nearby state park are top-notch, and the shops on and off the town’s main street only added to the experience. This cabin has everything you need to create plenty of family memories.

Great place for a weekend get-a-way
Half Round is very lovely and very comfy! The fire place is so cool and we used it every evening and all day Sunday. The beds were great and it is so quiet there which added to the feeling of being away in the mountains. The view out the glass windows was beautiful. We took walks on the roads and trails and the quick access to the local brewery was nice for a lunch out. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking all the rest of the meals and I particularly liked having a dishwasher for clean up. Check in was easy, communication with the host always quick and the instructions for check out were very clear and quick to accomplish. We had everything we needed for our stay. We recommend!

Great Weekend Retreat
Half-Round provided a wonderful quiet weekend retreat in a beautiful setting. Elissa was great in answering our many questions prior to arrival! We loved being so close to the TreeTops restaurant for several good dinners since the weather was frigid and snowy. One suggestion: if possible to install grab bars in the bathroom, handicapped guests would be safer while using the toilet and shower.

Lovely stay for 3 adults
My mother, sister and I had a lovely 4 nights winter stay at the half round house. Perfect tranquil accomodation in nature. Fantastic views on the forest from the comfort of the mid-century house. We loved the fireplace, however on day 1 there was no firestarter and needed to buy with wood the next day. The owners refunded 10 saying there is usually supplies for one fire. We also had to buy toilet paper. We enjoyed the many board games and books. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking meals. Beautiful surroundings, with easy hikes and a restaurant at walking distance.Hosts were responsive and helpful. Thank you!Highly recommended!

A mid-century modern gem!
Our family and dog had an amazing Thanksgiving get-away at this impeccably curated cabin. We loved the tasteful decor and appreciated the extra details - the fireplace, design books, magazines, games - all of it a great touch. The cabin feels secluded without being too far from civilization. It was well stocked with ample amount of firewood, coffee and kitchen essentials. We were able to cook an entire Thanksgiving meal! We highly recommend staying here. It was very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay at Half Round again.

Friends trip
Myself and 2 other female retired teachers chose this half round cabin because of its location that is close to hiking, restaurants, and the town of Berkeley Springs, and it did not disappoint. The cabin was situated in a quiet, wooded area where other cabins are spaced pretty far apart. The cabin was stocked with all necessities and was very comfortable. The 3 of us agreed that our favorite part was the large deck that we enjoyed for morning coffee and afternoon relaxation after hiking. The 15 minute walk to the brewery for dinner was a highlight for sure. The food was great and the dartboard there made for a fun evening before walking back to the cabin. I highly recommend this half round cabin!
