This beautiful mountain home offers 6 comfortable and private bedrooms in Northface's "let's go skiing" neighborhood. It is a short walk to Timberline Mountain's Salamander Trail. You won't move the car all weekend because it is all right here. Family Tradition offers a fully equipped kitchen and a sizable dining room for friends and family to gather. Lots of windows and a generous deck provide scenic views in every season. It doesn't have to be winter to enjoy this well though out rental home. It is a short drive to Canaan Resort, Blackwater Falls and the treasured mountain towns Davis and Thomas. Shop the shops, visit the breweries, maybe grab a pizza and then head back to Family Tradition for a game of pool or a relaxing soak in the outdoor hot tub. In every season, Family Tradition is the perfect spot for family and friends to gather. Winter visits will require 4-wheel drive vehicles with very good winter tires.

  Meghan K from ARLINGTON, VA recommends this vacation rental

  We were a group of 12, mix of parents and teens. Good space for all. Kids commandeered the basement and it kept the noise contained. But, also big space options to gather for games and meals.
  
  Essentially ski in/ski out, and easy walk to the lodge for non-skiers to meet up.
  
  Some furniture updates have been made (response to other reviews).

  Nice property for large family. Plenty of room to spread out. Very close to ski slopes. Bring your own blankets and hangers, as there were very few. Internet speeds not sufficient to do anything more than some slow emails - it was great for our adults who wanted to disconnect but disappointing for our younger folks.

  • Manager Responded on 1/14/2024

    Thank you for your review on Family Tradition. We will make sure to let the owners know about the need for hangers and blankets. Sorry about the internet being in a rural area when we have a lot of visitors in the area it can tend to slow down.

  Our trip was perfect! The house was clean, comfortable and accommodated our group perfectly. A few days into our stay, we had a slight problem with the hot tub. A simple phone call was made and the problem was solved within an hour! Excellent response and customer service. Parking was a little tight but we were able to park extra vehicles at the Best of Canaan office.

    Thank you for your review on Family Tradition. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time and that we were able to get the hot tub going for you during your stay. Hope to have you back!

  Brent J from Mason, OH does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Our family had a great vacation at Timberline in Canaan Valley, WV. Great place to hike, bike and fish! We stayed at Family Tradition in Timberline. It's a great location and a well built home. Plenty of room with 6 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. The kitchen is easy to navigate and there is a large dining room table that can easily seat 12+ people. However, there are several issues that would need to be addressed for us to stay at Family Tradition again.
  1. Several window screens need to be replaced to maximize airflow (No AC)
  2. House has beautiful wooden windows with crank handle openers. Several windows will not open and need to be repaired to maximize air flow.
  3. Window blinds need to go!
  4. Needs a deep clean throughout the house
  5. Dehumidifier hose in the basement was draining onto the bathroom floor. We redirected it to the bathtub. Need a more permanent solution.
  6. Basement carpet needs to be replaced.
  7. The left sliding glass door in family room will not lock. Also the sliding screen door needs replaced to maximize air flow.
  8. Screen door off the dining room does not slide and needs to be replaced to maximize air flow.
  9. Master bath jacuzzi tub leaks and needs to be repaired.
  10. Red furniture in loft needs to be replaced. Looks great in the pictures but the furniture is falling apart. Its an easy fix.

  Enjoyed our stay, the home is well maintained and clean. Very close to Salamander, it is an ideal location! Best of Canaan was great, it was an easy check-in/check-out process.

  Our party of 12 had a great stay at Family Tradition. Location is across the street from the Salamander green slope. You do have to walk between houses and climb up the side of the slope to get on it. House has several living spaces which is nice for a larger group. An upgrade to smart TVs would be nice so guests could use streaming services. Also one key for a house that sleeps 12 is unreasonable - there should be a door code for guest use. Overall a great stay.

  Eugene P from West Mifflin, PA recommends this vacation rental

  The vacation place was beautiful but did have a few issues. some of the window crank handles were broken, some of the window blinds were broken, the living room coffee table had broken legs and were at a point that if the table had been bumped into it would have fallen over, the clothes dryer would not heat up to dry clothes, there was a broken chair that was from the dining room table, the screen door for the sliding door in the dining room was broken and would not close, the microwave oven had to be exchanged out because it was broken. (All of these things were reported to the maintanance dept and the man who came to fix some of the issues was great!
  Beyond these problems, the place overall was very nice and I would still visit this place again. Canann Valley is a beautiful place and is well worth seeing and the rental property was so well cleaned that I left a nice tip for the person who was responsible for the cleaning.

  We very much enjoyed Family Tradition as it has been a tradition in our family to come to Timberline every year. This was the first time we stayed here and enjoyed the house and its proximity to Salamander.

  The house was great! The small appliances toaster,hand mixer and blender did not work. Everything else was great. Hauled the garbage to where the instructions on the refrigerator indicated only to find out that was the correct location.
