THE TRIP

Maurertown, Virginia Getaway with Friends

A relaxing few days with friends in the Virginia mountains, centered around a beautiful cabin, good company, and a few worthwhile stops along the way.
Not every trip needs a packed itinerary. This getaway to Mauertown, Virginia was all about slowing down for a few days with friends.

We stayed in a beautiful cabin tucked into the Virginia mountains and spent most of the trip simply enjoying the house, the scenery, and the company. We made a handful of stops on the drive down and back, but for once, the destination really was the place we were staying.

If you're looking for a quiet Virginia getaway where the vacation rental is part of the experience, this was exactly that kind of trip.

Maurertown, Virginia
Great space with plenty of room to relax and unwind! Outdoor spaces both open air and screened in as well as indoor places to sit and enjoy each others company! You'll notice that is shows nothing for Day 2 of the trip, that is because we truly enjoyed the cabin and company so much that we never left! We grilled out and made food, drank, talked and just enjoyed the day!

This is a great market with a ton of international food options and hard to find items. They also have a selection of imported beers which was our reason for this stop.

Uncle Jack's Pizzeria & Pub

Cumberland, Maryland

Small, dive bar feel but the food is great! This was our second visit to this restaurant and both times we got the cheesy garlic bread because we really liked it. Mike loves that they have Old German on tap! We grabbed some wings this time as well which were good and their bleu cheese dressing was awesome!
