About this property

Spruce Run Cabin, a wooded retreat on the mountain

Take a break from everyday life, and escape to this unique and quiet retreat in the Catoctin Mountains. The traditional chink log cabin is located on 25 acres of mostly wooded terrain off Highway 17 near Wolfsville, Maryland, less than an hour and a half from D.C./Baltimore. The hosts live on the property, but the cabin is situated where it feels very private. The cabin faces the woods and there is a private trail down to the creek.
The first floor of the cabin is an open floor plan living room, dining room, fully furnished kitchen, foosball table and entrance to the front and back deck. The back deck has a gas grill(with utensils) and sitting area. The covered front porch is a great spot to sit and listen to the rain or watch wildlife.

The second floor has two bedrooms and the bathroom. The master is a large room with a queen poster bed, couch and closet. The smaller bedroom has a full size bed with desk. At the top of the stairs, the yellow cabinet has games, puzzles and please add your artistic touch to the coloring book.

Enjoy the firepit out front or walk down the hill to the creek. There is almost zero light pollution at night so stargazing is incredible.

Kitchen: The kitchen has an electric range/oven, refrigerator, microwave, Ninja blender, toaster oven, toaster, small crock-pot and coffee maker. Utensils, pots/pans, baking pans, glasses and dishes: it has everything you need for whipping up a meal. Coffee is provided and you can choose between a Keurig (reusable pods) or a french press. Pantry is stocked with basic spices and olive oil. There is no dishwasher but soap, sponge, towels and drying rack are provided.

Bathroom: The bathroom has a tub shower, sink and a toilet. Cotton towels, paraben free shampoo/conditioner, homemade soap and other essentials are provided.

Cleaning supplies: Dishwashing soap, garbage bags, household cleaner, paper towels and vacuum are provided

Great family spot

Beautiful log cabin in woods, near Catoctin and Cunningham Falls. The house has very comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces with porch, deck and balcony. Inside, the living/dining area is spacious. There are toys and games for kids. Bedding and bath were very comfortable.

Perfect Getaway

We loved everything about this house: the fresh flowers left by the host, the cleanliness, the fact that it was supplied with everything we needed, the location in the woods with easy access to a stream. This is definitely a place we want to return to.

Nice cottage, but can be cold in winter

Spruce Run Cabin is a classic "cabin in the woods." The furnishings are fine, although the second bedroom could use a bureau for clothes. We were there in a very cold weekend in January and although some of the heat was on when we arrived, it took a day before the cottage was at a comfortable temperature. Also, it would be very helpful to have a car with all wheel drive; the entrance/exit can be very slippery.

Perfect Duo Getaway

This property is quiet, thoughtfully appointed, and close to great Maryland mountain hiking. It was such a lovely retreat from the madness of city life. What's not to like about Farm Fresh Eggs, cut flowers, private surroundings and relaxing in a comfy cabin with your best friend!

Serene getaway

Beautiful 1880 log cabin in the woods close to a stream. We enjoyed sitting on each of the 3 decks listening to the migrating birds and the stream in the distance, playing records on the record player, and relaxing with nearly no sounds other than nature. The cabin was very clean and the main bed we used was very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

Comfy Cozy Retreat

What an incredible little piece of paradise. Everything was just as described in listing. The farm fresh eggs were a treat. Even though the cabin is close to Rt 70, it is very quiet and secluded. Plenty of time to rest and relax. A nice little 1 mile hike around the property, quick trip to Cunningham Falls ( and an invigorating 3 mile hike) and best of all a campfire. We were thoroughly pleased.

Extremely clean and well appointed chic cabin in the woods

The guidance provided by the owner was very well put together and easy to understand to get to the cabin. She lives nearby and we got to meet her sweet daughter, Ava, who didnt approach the pups too close without permission which is appreciated. The cabin had all that was necessary to make meals and didnt have a hard to maintain checklist of what to do before leaving that some rentals do. Great scenery driving there and staying there and would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area.

Trip near Appalachian mountians and close to Wash DC area. Fredrick MD

Very very nice cabin, 2 levels. Newer but nice rustic look inside and out. Plenty of ammenities and a nice smaller town of Myerville MD closeby. Close to a service station with snacks and friendly service too! Dont miss the seafood, pizza and misc restaurant in Myersville. Great food, superb staff and very nice atmosphere. God willing we will be back. The cabin is romantic and nice for couples, families too! Take it easy on the narrow roads, slow down if your a speeder... Relax and enjoy the great scenery!!

Reconnect with family

This was the best way to disconnect from our busy lives and reconnect as a family. The cabin was super clean and had everything we needed. The owner literally thought of everything!! Our 2 teenage kids had no problems disconnecting from their phones because we had tons to do. Plenty of good fishing spots within a 15-20 minute drive. We even used the fire pit one night and made hotdogs and smores. I loved that it was pet-friendly. Our dog enjoyed being out with us without worrying about traffic or other people. We will definitely be booking again this year!

Cozy getaway

The cabin was very clean and nice!! We enjoyed the quiet setting on the private drive. Plenty of things to do nearby or do nothing at all. My wife and I really liked sitting at the fire pit , reading devotions, burning marshmallows lol…. Unfortunately we had to leave early due to our dog. I didn’t ask about the steps and he cannot do open back stairs. My fault!! But his anxiety was through the roof and couldn’t join us upstairs or even get on the front porch. Overall the cabin is nicely decorated, shower/bathroom was great, nothing to complain about in any way.
