Mountain Magic Meets Lakeside Luxury. Welcome to Marrakech!
About this house rental
I read that the name Marrakech originates from Berber words that mean “Land of God”. Add in the fact that the house is located in beautiful Canaan Valley in “Almost Heaven West Virginia” and you have a darn good idea of what you are looking at here. Lovely Marrakech is lakeside on Timberline’s Sand Run Lake where nature is naturally abundant! The considerate homeowners have thought of everything to make your vacation a special experience by providing a canoe for use on the lake as well as a hot tub and horseshoe pits for even more outdoor fun. Step inside and prepare to be comfortable. In just a day you can enjoy an incredible view while relaxing by the fireplace. Shoot pool and play foosball in the downstairs game room. There is still time for a movie or to prepare your favorite meal in the nicely appointed kitchen. Marrakech where there is so much to do or do nothing at all. It is sure to be everyone’s favorite vacation! Four and all-wheel drive vehicles required for winter access. VIRTUAL TOUR

My friends and I come yearly, and I added an additional night in order to surprise one special friend. Best of Canaan provided excellent service so we could keep the secret from our friend, and was accommodating and helpful throughout. 10 out of 10 stars for customer service!

We have been staying at Marrakech for so many years with 2 of our dearest friends. We love it! The walks along the lake, lunches on the deck, hot tub in the evening. The kitchen is fully equipped and updated! Bedrooms are comfy and cozy. Fireplace on,TV on ,glass of wine... perfect relaxation! Best of Canaan Realty is wonderful to work with!👍🏻

This house is very clean and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook with. The great room is sunken so you have to step down which can be tricky if you are not use to that, mainly for older people. The location is wonderful the only thing I wish the owners would do is trim the branches on the pine trees so you can see the lake view better.

We visited with our family to celebrate our 40th anniversary. It was off season in April but we found plenty to do with hiking and art exploring. Saw an eagle, skunk and plenty of deer. The accommodations were outstanding - the best outfitted kitchen at any vacation rental we've visited. The rooms were very nice and we took advantage of the hot tub and swing.

This house was perfect for the Easter holiday with family we had dreamed. Some items were concerning for us. The bathroom had some items left in the shower from previous renters, used bars of soap. Sheets on one of the bed had tears in them. Also for the canoe on property that was supposed to be able to use no oar was anywhere to be located. Overall experience was great for a family get away to the mountains though.

We had a great time at Marrakesh for our annual Fall Getaway. House was clean, kitchen well-stocked, great location. Sitting in the hot tub at night under the stars was so relaxing. We always treasure our time spent at Canaan/Timberline and the girls at Best of Canaan are always wonderful to work with. You gals are like family to us! We recommend you services to everyone!

We had a great time in this house. There's plenty to do, board games, pool table, Foosball, fishing, etc. The canoes were a lot of fun, especially convenient with life vests and paddles being there too. We had a minor hot tub problem that was remedied just a few hours after calling management. The house was clean and the kitchen was very well stocked. Overall a great experience all around.

Dunlap family vacation
We travelled with our 2 daughters, their husbands, and our 6 grandchildren between the ages of 4 months-8 years old. The home had plenty of room for all of us to enjoy, the location with all the wildlife was great, and the house was very well stocked especially the kitchen. Was very nice to unplug and enjoy family time together in the beautiful Canaan Valley. Would highly recommend.

We've stayed here a few times now and it's about the best VRBO home we've stayed in. Well appointed kitchen, wonderful location, and great layout. There is access to lots of outside activities and it's secluded with great views of the late and the surrounding mountains.

My friends and I have been coming to Canaan for 30 years. We come from 7 states and it is the only time we all get together. We enjoy all the valley has to offer. Walks, hot tubbing, canoeing, leaf looking, bird watching and local shopping. We enjoy this house because of the location to trails and the lake. It is spacious enough that we aren't tripping over each over but you can still get away for total down time.

This our third stay here and definitely will be back. It is roomy, well equipped and has amazing views. We enjoyed hiking, canoeing, fishing and evenings by the campfire. The game room was a hit with the younger visitors. Our only glitch was running out of propane for the grill midway through cooking dinner and not having a spare in the garage as described. One was delivered the next am. My only suggestions would be to have a cleaner vacumn and a mop available. Also missed having the second mini frig in the basement as previously had.

The check in process was frustrating. The directions to check in went to my spamEmail so I had to call to get the details. There was a mean dog in the yard for hours growling at us every time we tried to go outside. I called the property manager and they did nothing to help so we lost a day. There were random beer bottles in the bedrooms but all in all the house was a perfect spot for our family. It had everything we needed to feel like we were at home. We loved the location and we would definitely come back again.

This is our 3rd year to stay at Marrakech for our Spring Fling. Eight guys who went to college in the mid 70's and still know how to enjoy life and each other's company. Golf, fishing, hiking, biking, Euchre, along with great music, fine food and a well stocked bar. Marrakech is the perfect getaway for us from Pittsburgh and eastern Maryland. Marrakech was extremely clean, fully equipped and well maintained. We will be back next year. Just a few constructive criticisms, ice maker in frig needs repaired and overhead ceiling fans in great room do not function properly. Otherwise, a great place to get away from it all in beautiful Canaan Valley.
