Gorgeous home! Wonderful pool! Great family getaway!

The house is ideal for a family getaway! It is beautifully decorated, very clean and spacious. The pool is amazing, the game rooms are fun, and there are plenty of spaces to gather/enjoy company. Judy is the best host! We can’t wait to return.

Beautiful home in peaceful surroundings

This property lives up to its name “Licking Creek Retreat”. We enjoyed the beautiful home, relaxing in the spacious living area and kitchen, and made use of all of the amenities including the heated pool, game room, and theatre room. The surrounding hills and the brook below contributed to peaceful vacation vibes. Would absolutely recommend to family and friends.

Winter Getaway

Great place to spend with friends and family. 3 small families spent a weekend together at "Licking Creek" and couldn't be happier with our pick. The kids really enjoyed the wonderful pool, game room, and theater. The parents enjoyed being able to have adult time while the kids were happily occupied.

Wonderful stay and swim, rain or shine

My kids, wife and I enjoyed our four day stay to indulge in all-day-long swims, relaxing, and home theatre. The house was very clean and comfortable and even had a clear night for some backyard astronomy. It was only a moderate drive to antiques and dining in and around the area. Overall, a nice retreat for our family and we look forward to our next stay.

Wonderful getaway

The stay at the Licking Creek Retreat was amazing to say the least. The house had all the amenities one could want in a extended weekend getaway. The indoor heated pool surrounded by the house was a highlight. The location was remote-ish but wasn't too far from the nearest towns. This house has it all.

Great Weekend Getaway!

Our family met here for a weekend getaway. The house is amazing and is stocked with everything you need! The pool room is great, the patio out back has firepits for you to sit around at night, and the kids enjoyed riding their bikes on the property and at the park. The views are beautiful and the beds were comfortable.We brought most of our food with us, but there are stores about 15 minutes away. Its a perfect spot to unplug and relax.

Beautiful Property - Great Stay!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the few days we spent here. Everyone was wishing we could stay longer. It was so fun to be swimming in December! We also made use of the game and theater rooms. There was something for everyone. Judy was an exceptional host, great communicator, and graciously aided me in retrieving an item that was accidently left behind. It’s was a wonderful stay at a perfect home in a quiet, relaxing location and we hope visit again.

When ever we had a question, Judy responded quickly. Looking forward to staying here again!! Enjoyed watching the deer behind the house and the creek below house as well.

Thanksgiving stress relief!!!

We had 6-9 family members staying here, our choice to host a holiday dinner outside of one of our own houses due to space and comfort concerns. This place was perfect for our needs. My mom is arthritic and loves the pool, we used it daily! The kitchens and rooms were spacious and comfortable. Judy was an amazing host, catering to our every need. The views and scenery were calming and relaxing, we saw deer on two occasions. Our teenagers used the nearby park to play basketball and the game room was also a big plus. Instead of shopping we used Black Friday to visit nearby Berkeley Springs for a spa appointment which was wonderful. Would definitely recommend!

Peaceful Retreat

The house was phenomenal, Loved the indoor salt water swimming pool, actually my son and I both lived in the theatre room and the indoor pool area the entire time we were there. Everything outside of the house the entire way around is gorgeous landscaping and tree-wise. Ironically, I stayed here as a guest of the Schwartz family, many years ago and never realized it until I walked through the front door back around 1998ish or so. Being right next to Camp Harding State Park was phenomenal too, as we spent some time in the park and by the creek as well. This was the perfect secluded spot to get some r and r and just relax. We slept like babies while we were there. The owner Miss Judy is amazing to speak to through both texting and email chatting. I recommend this place to everyone who is looking for a nice quiet place to mentally and physically recharge from their demanding lives.
