The Blackwater Canyon Trail is at the bottom of the hill, go right to Douglas Falls and left 3/4 mile into Thomas. If you are a Mt.

Host never sent me the check-in code for the house. I sent a message in the chat and never heard back. I had to call the Host for the code. When I walked into the house, it was still dirty from the previous guest staying. I called the Host and let them know. Host said he would give me a refund for the house, not being cleaned and said we didn’t have to stay there. I told him we were from out of state, didn’t know the area and had a dog and would just stay. I never heard from the host again after that. The property of the house was really beautiful and we enjoyed that part of the trip.

What a great home! We stayed for a week. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow when we arrived. The road was plowed, covered with a dusting, but had no issue getting to the house. The owners were very accommodating and very helpful. The house is fully stocked and furnished (dishes, pots, pans, towels, silverware, blankets, pillows, etc.) The property was amazing! Very serene and peaceful. You could hear the creek nearby. We ventured all over the property. Very close to Blackwater Falls state park - where we spent most of our time. Thank you for being so accommodating and providing a very peaceful vacation!

Roadway/Driveway - park close to the steps in the winter so that the plow driver can turn around.

This is our second stay here. Great place and great location. If you like to cook, and we do, the kitchen is pretty well stocked. The house is very dog friendly. The fireplace is wonderful. We will definitely return. Tip- get firewood from Shop and Save (larger, dry pieces) versus end of the road stand (very small pieces that are wet and moldy).

Property was maintained beautifully. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Very clean and orderly house. House flies kept appearing, however. Lots of books and games to entertain you. Fully equipped kitchen is a plus. Easy access to Thomas and Davis by car, or Thomas by foot path.The furnace fan motor was so loud the floor vibrated. Eventually noise disappeared. Internet router lost connectivity daily. I texted owner; no reply. Router looks old. Hauling out trash at end of stay was not inconvenient but would have appreciated a heads up beforehand-maybe I missed those instructions. The dumpster at the transfer station at end of street was overflowing with trash bags; the parking lot was dirty, dusty, and dry. This calls out for an alternative method.

Dream Vacation!

Wonderful place. The location is ideal. Walking distance to both the nice little town of Thomas one way down a river path and water falls the other direction. Easy drive to Blackwater Falls and everything else this hiker's paradise has to offer. Would definitely come back here again.

No hot tub or jetted tub, although they are listed in the accommodations.Main bathroom showerhead broke the first night, and we had to buy a new one. Smoke detector was laying on the bedroom nightstand and not usable.Positive: location to the town and waterfalls was great!

Perfect Location

House was clean and comfortable. E-biking the Blackwater Canyon Trail to Hendricks and back was wonderful, the trail is feet from the house. Nearby Douglas Falls is great. Blackwater Falls State Park is just a few miles away. So many other outdoor activities nearby. We picked this destination because my wife began researching her genealogy a few years ago and found that her mother’s family was deeply embedded in the history of Tucker County. She found a story at the library about an ancestor of hers who was lost for five days crossing Backbone Mountain from Sugar Lands to Thomas. This is the national forest area that is adjacent to Westwood (you can see the wind turbines on backbone mountain from the house). If we return, we’d definitely stay here again.

Perfect getaway

This space was the absolute perfect place for our family to get away to and unwind. The location is peaceful and easy to find - and so conveniently located to the shops in Thomas. Having a space that also thoughtfully considers what’s necessary to be “dog friendly” was another huge perk.We absolutely will be back!

Perfect weekend getaway!

The property is close to major attractions but away from town. It's the last house on a dead-end street with only one other home. Note: the neighbors have two off-leash labs that came to the property daily. Be mindful if your dog is also off-leash. I was not concerned they would bite or attack, but they barked a lot when out. It was quiet (when neighbor dogs weren't out) and secluded. The place was nicer than the pictures. The kitchen was stocked (just bring cooking oil or butter). I would stay here again if I were visiting. Bring tissues and soap/toiletries.

Awesome location. Close to town. Yet a nice country view. Place was very clean and on par with what we expected. The only issue is the steps and deck weren't shoveled. Other than that I would highly recommend staying here. A wonderful place!
