    This really sounds fantastic. Are they really booked ALL of 2012?

    Delightful. I was excited until I saw that it would only accommodate 12 people.

    Hello

    They are HALF booked, so 26 weekends left! All the parties that have visited the Double O so far have booked again for the 2012 year! Some booked not one but two weekends they loved it so much!

    So, is this an invitation? Should we book a weekend and gather a group. It's about a 10 hour drive for me, but I love the area, and would be willing to make the trip and meet new folks. Fitting it into my schedule may be a bit tricky, but I'd give it a try.

    I drove through there frequently to visit my parents. The Paw Paw tunnel is a beautiful walk through a tunnel on the C&O canal near there, if you have time to explore the area that is. The original woodwork is still in there and has the grooves in it where the rope burns are present from the mules pulling the barges along the canal. The river is the Potomac River that separates WV and MD. It is mountainous and beautiful area.

    Beautiful setting and onlly 4 1/2 hours away from me.
    Alas, even thought the price seems reasonable, I cannot afford for sometime to go. So...

    My folks live in Charleston, WV, and I'd love to go to a quilting retreat there if you want to organize one!
