We were very excited when one of our guests told us she worked for television station WOAY in West Virginia and that she could arrange to do a series of 40 TV commercials for us. You see the attached commercial on TV in March and August this year!!!
It's a firth time ever and we would not have thought about it, had not Laurie given us such a goo deal!!

Just wanted to share a comment we received from a guest who just checked out. We are always very pleased to hear comments, as we, specially Lisa, work very hard to keep the houses in good condition.

We had a wonderful time this past May in the Retreat at Pipestem!

The home was beautiful! The lovely wood inside and the spacious deck and seating out there was fantastic! The deck was safe for our 3 youngest children. That was a plus. Also we were so glad that each family had a large parking space close to the home!
Loved the open kitchen, counter space, appliances and all the cabinets. Also, everything we needed was there (large pots for corn on the cob and pizza pans were definitely appreciated!)
The bedrooms were a nice size and the bathrooms were very spacious. We liked that they had a toilet closet for prtivacy.
The children loved to play around and we set up an air mattress for all the kids to lay on and watch a movie.
The location was a tremendous plus! We did not have far to go to enjoy the pool and other activities at Pipestem Park. There is so much to do there!
You all were so very easy to work with and quickly answered our questions via phone and/or email.
We would LOVE to make this our yearly get together location!
If possible can you check on next year's Memorial Day availability or the weekend before or after? We would like to stay an additional day and we think the holiday would allow for that.
We will definitely recommend that home and all the others you own to others as I know they are too notch as well!
Thank you for such detail and consideration for your guests. It really shows.
Sincerely,

(I took out the names for privacy)

Hi All,

we have been busy making a lot of changes to the West irginian and the Cardinal, allmost all based on feedback from you.
Just to mention a few;
- They both have full AC now.
- Added a nice window in the back wall of the living room
- Renewed most of the furniture.
- Added patios with new picnic tables and fire pits
- Created a very nice seating area in the main level of the West Virginian. This house now has a living room AND a family room.
- Added a small bedroom in the West Virginian
- Re-built the main floor of the West Virginian and re-located the dining area.
- All three houses at the Retreat have now WIFI
If you have time and are in the area just stop by and have a look.

See you there,

Hans and Lisa

To all friends of The Retreat at Pipestem,
A while ago we posted some updates on what we are doing and how we keep our houses up to standards and tested how we could use Facebookj to let everyone know. It actually works and I like to add a few new offers, while now cancelling the old ones.
Between now and April 6, 2014, we like to offer special deals to everyone who 'LIKES' us, so if you have friends who are thinking about taking a break, this might be a great opportunity!
The midweeks we offer a 5 night for the price of three, all by phoine, as our booking site will not accept these discounts. 704 293 6521

We are inj the process of upgrading the West Virginian. Added a bedroom already, added a window on the main level and totally changed the lower level from panelled walls to real wooden walls.
The next project will be to upgarde the main level, and add more furniture there, while reducing the size of the kitchen a bit. We hope to have this finished by half April.

Hope you all will come over and see for yourselves.

Facebook only Special.
We have been trying to figure how effective Facebook can be and like to make a special offer for those who LIKE us on Facebook only.
So, if you have friends or family who you think would be interested in staying with us in Pipestem or Glade this September, we would like to offer the following;
Book two nights and get one free.
Book three nights and get two free. This would mean that you can stay for a complete midweek at a huge discount.
Stay for a week and pay for 4 week nights.
If you are a guest who has booked already, and you have not been contacted by us, let us know, as this applies to all of our Facebook friends.
These bookings can only be made by phone, as our automatic booking system will not allow for these discounts. Check us out on www.gopipestem.com

Air Conditioning
The West Virginian is now fully airconditioned. So no more window units. We used the minisplit system where the the three indoor units are connected to one outdoor unit. It works beautifully and is even more quiet than central air. Wanted to do the Cardinal as well, but the contractor forgot to order the upstairs units, so for the time being, only the main floor is on a mini split. Upstairs are still the window units. Will make the change as soon as there is a small gap in the bookings.

Firepits!!
Over time we had a lot of requests from our guests to have firepits and some went ahead and built their own. We will have a firepit built at the Cardinal, the West Virginian and the Black Bear and they should be done in the next few weeks.
We hope you will enjoy using them!!!!

Hi all,

just wanted to let everyone know that we added a link to Youtube on our website's homepage. Right now there are four video's to see and over time we hope to post more. If you have ones you think would be nice to post, just let us know.

All,
We finally seem to have our new website up and running cleanly.
The final hurdle was getting away from paypal, as way too many guests found ithis system confusing and as a result clicked away from our site.
The online booking works very well and we already have seen that about 30% of the bookings are done that way.
