Mountain Magic Meets Lakeside Luxury. Welcome to Marrakech!
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.

The house was as described, and the location is fantastic! It probably has the most equipped kitchen of any online rental I've stayed in. Layout was also perfect for our family to hang out and enjoy the views. Will definitely stay again if we are in the area for vacation.

I cant say enough about this house and its management team "Best of Canaan." They are the best! Here are just a few reasons we'll be back 1) The location is stunning, views of the lake and foothills. 2) easy access to the lake, canoes and the miles on manicured paths around 2 lakes 3) nice hot tub and game room 4) a beautiful "well equipped" kitchen and 5) plenty of technology / football screens (haha). We can't wait to return!!

Our sixth year at Marrakech makes it obvious how pleased we are with it. Management company ( Best of Canaan) does a great job .Property is well maintained and clean. Its location is literally at the end of the road allowing much privacy. Large living area perfect for our family. Outside deck great for lunch and dinner gatherings. Kids enjoyed canoeing on lake and exploring wooded areas. We are already booked for next year.

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.

We loved the house, beautiful view of the lake. The location is very private with trails close to it. The kitchen was the best stocked of any place we have stayed. We would stay again, maybe in the warmer months so we could boat on the lake.

Reviewer Comments:
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.
