Take the virtual tour and this custom built home is sure to be on the top of your "places to stay list". With seven bedrooms and six levels of living space, privacy isn't an issue. Send the kids to the media room for a movie on the huge flat screen, the guys to the pool room for a game of billiards, and let the girl talk begin in the amazing kitchen. Get the gang back together at the lovely and large dining room table for some quality time. The outdoor hot tub and patio with a built in barbeque add even more space to the already generous floor plan. Skiers, hikers and mountain bikers will love the quick and easy access to Timberline's Salamander Trail. Winter visitors are advised...4-wheel drive will be necessary for access.

  We stayed in Cassa Nova 13-17 April 2017. This was my second time staying in Cassa Nova. The home is beautiful and had PLENTY of space. There were 11 adults in my group and everyone fell in love with the house. I try to visit Canaan Valley at least twice each year, and Cassa Nova makes the stay very comfortable!! In addition, the staff at Best of Canaan was fantastic. They were accommodating and very friendly. Again, this was my second time renting with Best of Canaan and I highly recommend them!

  Jonathan D from Mechanicsville, VA recommends this vacation rental

  This place is great for large groups and groups with kids. There are 3 separate living areas. There is also a 2 car heated garage. We were able to hang out in and play games in the top floor with the kitchen, setup the kids with video games in the middle, and play pool and use the bar with extra fridge in the bottom level. The hot tub was better than average for the ski places we have stayed at. Just a short walk across the road and your on the salamander slope. Bonus that this place is low enough on the mountain so you don't have to take salamander all the way from the top to access it like some of the other slopeside homes. The grill worked great, and the kitchen table was large enough for our whole crew which was great. The only down side is that this place is full of kicking stereo equipment. Unfortunately the two main receivers were not working properly. Not knowing what to expect we brought our own equipment so that didn't really bother us much. Its a steep grade to get to the driveway here but the road is a gravel base so it might not be too bad in extreme weather but definitely something to remember. If we come back to timberline we will definitely stay here again. If I could improve one thing about this property it would be the mattresses. They were all the same and they could use replacement in my opinion.

  The location of the property was great and the size of the home perfect for our mid-size group. The oversized rooms and bathrooms were a definite bonus -we never felt cramped. The weather was rainy, but it didn't take away from the beautiful surroundings. We were somewhat disappointed with the cleanliness of the home -very dusty throughout and the floors were dirty.

  We rented out Casa Nova for a family get-together vacation a few weeks ago and we absolutely loved it. The house was beautiful. It was even better in person than I imagined it to be from the pictures. It was comfortable and so spacious. We had 14 people thee and there was more than enough room for everyone. There were a few minor maintenance issues with the house, but nothing that took away from the overall experience. We all enjoyed ourselves so much we are hoping to make this a yearly trip.

  a guest from Dover, OH recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed with family and had a wonderful vacation! Upon entering the house, we were thrilled with the appearance and spaciousness of the house. Plenty of room for everyone! During the course of our stay, we noticed a few things that needed to be updated....most notably the dishwasher. Midway through our stay, we realized that we couldn't get a door on the main level to lock. We also had some issues with the TVs/DVD players (huge TV in the mid-level room was incompatible with hooking up game systems, DVD player in living room wouldn't open...). Also, I would recommend replacing the mattresses. Some smaller issues were blinds that didn't work correctly, and general updating like several lightbulbs that needed to be replaced. While the place was generally clean, it seemed to need a good deep clean (some closets and dresser drawers were dirty). The kids loved the hot tub, and the boys thought the loft room was really cool! I really liked the floor plan and overall layout of the house. Despite a few inconveniences, my family and I very much enjoyed our stay, and loved the benefit of having such a large house for everyone to enjoy! Thanks!

  This house is a gem. Three of the bedrooms have attached bathrooms and the master suites are huge. There were plenty of linens and soaps and such. The kitchen is very well appointed with utensils and bowls. Complimentary trash removal would have been a big improvement as 14 people generate a pile of garbage. Additionally, we had to provide our own cleaning supplies and toilet paper. The ski room was a little cramped for such a large house. None of these aren't deal breakers, but the experience could be improved with some tweaks. Overall, it was a good experience.

  Great house for a family get together. The house has a lot of different areas to hang out in. The open kitchen/dining/living room was great for getting everybody together. The hot tub was a hit and the media room could fit 12 adults watching a movie on slower nights. The pool sticks didn't have tips for some reason, so playing pool was a bit of a challenge. the kitchen is very well stocked, the outdoor grill is huge. The ski slopes are right across the gravel street, which was great for hiking since we were there in July/August. The drive up to the house is bumpy and full of potholes, and you can get stuck on the gravel street if the car is full and you don't keep your speed up.
  
  Overall a fabulous house -- top of the line amenities and a unique layout. Had a great time.

  The Cassa Nova house was very nice and we had a very pleasant weekend stay. There was plenty of room for our 14 family members. The furnishings were nice with plenty of seating, multiple TV rooms, and the pool table was a special hit. The house was generally well maintained. My only complaint is that the harder to reach places could use some cleaning. Moving couches to gather around a table for games revealed dirt hiding underneath. The ceiling fans and walls high up in the main room were quite dusty. The property management representatives were extremely helpful and responsive.

  We had a great time at casa nova. We had snow for 3 days so the skiing was great. Only drawbacks were-poor road maintenance-even 4wd cars had difficulty getting to the house; hot tub cover was difficult to put on after taking off due a broken support bar; and having to haul trash back to town was inconvenient and treacherous in the bad road conditions.

  Been visiting Canaan Valley for 12 years now and this is by far the nicest winter home we've stayed in. I gave the four stars because of the location of the Hot Tub, too far from the back door. The other 4 stars was the icy hill the house is located on. I had 4 wheel drive and still was sliding around. Kind of scary with all houses having minimal parking and cars sticking out onto the road.

  We had a wonderful time again this year. As noticed above, our experience was great. However, I would like to mention a few things that need looked at. First, the dimmer switches in the great room, kitchen and dining room are too small for the amount of load. When operating in the dimmer mode for some time, they get so hot you cannot touch them. This is very dangerous. The dining room chairs need pads attached to the legs in order to cease the loud scooting noise from the floor. The fire place needs attention as some of the handles are missing to operate the dampers and screen. Several of the electrical outlets need replacing as they do not hold the plug in place to make contact with the power. Several of the TVs have been removed in the bedrooms. Need to have a couple cookie sheets added to the untinsels for baking. Need some new gravel on parking spaces to prevent carrying mud into the house.
  Just some maintenance items that need taken care of. We did enjoy our stay for the 3rd time. Gary

  We had a great stay at Cassa Nova in May. The house is beautiful and very large. All 14 of us had a great time and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax, eat, and sleep. The house has a beautiful kitchen and dining room that sat everyone in our group.
  
  Donna with the management company was a true pleasure to work with and was able to give lots of advice about area.
  
  The only disappoint about our trip was that it wasn't long enough. I wish we could have spent 5-7 days so that we could have enjoyed more of the spring/summer activities available in the area. The hikes we did at Blackwater offered breathtaking views.
  
  The location next to the slopes of Timberline make it clear that this would also be a great winter destination. We hope to be back this winter (and probably next summer too!).

  For a family gathering, as we had, this is a great place. There were a few initial problems with a water leak and missing instructions for working the TV and DVD, but the property managers are just wonderful and sorted everything out for us quickly. The conjoined kitchen, dining room and great room are just terrific, but echo a lot with a lot of people present. Which is fine for magnifying laughter.
