About this property

Greenbrier Getaway 1: Hike, Bike, Ski! Fenced Yard, Firepit, Fast Wi-Fi, Dogs OK

Bring family or friends for an unforgettable getaway in a relaxing, dog-friendly cottage close to myriad outdoor adventures and walkable to shops and restaurants. You’ll love easy single-level living and the fenced backyard for kids and pups. Enjoy an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise; ski, hike, snowshoe, hunt, and fish nearby, as well jump on your mountain bike and arrive on Greenbrier Bike Trail in minutes. No need to sacrifice strong cell service or Wi-Fi in this mountain town; both are superb.

Access Greenbrier Getaway conveniently via keyless entry and step into the cozy and inviting living room. Relax on comfy seating. Play supplied board games or enjoy your favorite shows, movies, and sports on the 50" smart TV, accessing host-provided Sling or using your own log-ins to watch other popular streaming channels.

Steps away, prep and cook your best culinary creations in the fully equipped kitchen with all the standard major appliances – refrigerator, stove/oven, dishwasher, and microwave – and a handy assortment of small appliances – blender, hand mixer, air fryer, toaster, and crockpot. You’ll find plenty of prep space on the countertops, along with all the cookware, bakeware, dishware, flatware, glassware, serving-ware, and utensils you need to prepare and serve your favorite meals. The kitchen’s pass-through window into the living room adds to the openness and enables cooks to be part of the action going on in the living room.

Grab your morning hot beverage from the coffee and tea bar with pod-style coffeemaker – plus pods, electric tea pot, and coffee/tea supplies. You’ll find several sweet spots to sit and sip your beverage – breakfast bar, side porch with seating and coffee table, glider – also with coffee table – or bistro table for two on the front porch, where you can sit and watch the world go by.

Dine at the kitchen table for two, supplemented by barstools on both sides of the pass-through window.

Should you need a workspace for remote work, the small kitchen table is available to you.

Play cornhole in the fenced backyard, where kiddos and doggos will enjoy romping. In the evening, laugh, tell stories, and make memories around the firepit with Adirondack chairs.

After a full day of biking or hiking on the nearby Greenbrier Trail, exploring everything the Marlinton area has to offer, or just hanging out and relaxing at Greenbrier Getaway, head for a restful night’s sleep in the bedroom.

You’ll find a king bed with sumptuous linens and pillows, plus a memory-foam mattress and sconce lights on the headboard for reading. Lull yourself to sleep with the 42" smart TV. You’ll have a dresser, luggage rack, and closet for storage. You can conveniently control the temperature with the room’s own minisplit unit.

The living-room sofa folds out into a full-size bed with memory-foam mattress to accommodate additional sleeping needs.

Refresh and rejuvenate in the bathroom with walk-in shower and all bathroom essentials.

You’ll love the convenience of the washer and dryer.

Perfect location
This property has everything you need. The kitchen is the best of all the places we have stayed. The side porch is the perfect place to curl up with a good book. Patty responds immediately if you need to get in touch with her. We had a problem one day that threatened to keep us in town rather than biking on the trail. One call to Patty and she had a solution for us and we were out on the trail.
