Timber Valley Retreat 5 Star Review Clear Spring Maryland

Booked this place for a family get away/reunion. I wanted to give this place a one star rating for accuracy of the listing. This place is more special than what the listing describes. 

It starts with the tour of the cabins and the amenities with Tom the Host. There are so many little hiking trails that lead to the pond and an a spot the we called the Hobit area. Its filled with tall moss covered rocks and is rumored to be where the local Mennonites used to go to stay cool. 

Wildlife from birds to frogs to ducks to groundhogs to deer were seen throughout our time there, literally Trains to Cranes. During one of our hikes the grandkids found a grounded redtail hawk. Wildlife sanctuary came and got her. 

We were very secluded even with the canal less than a stone’s throw away. The facilities had everything you would need except charcoal. I suggest paper plates, napkins, & utensils. This place is such a gem, best described as outdoors with air conditioning. 

A communal experience with nature and modern conveniences. Tom and Karen have so many little hidden treasures to share that will make your experience that much better. Make sure Tom shares the story of the sunflowers. 

My group included my 92 year old dad. He was able to move around easily. There were swings, sandboxes, and things to climb to keep the kids busy the whole time. Hammocks and cornhole for the adults. 

Tom and Karen have put together a retreat for everyone. Look forward to staying again!
