Fantastic stay for New River Gorge National Park!
Our group loved this property for our visit to New River Gorge National Park. Great location. Property has a lot of personality. Communication with the host was excellent throughout. We enjoyed the large dining room table and living room sofa, as well as the hot tub. The two king beds were super comfortable and we slept great. Thanks for a fantastic stay!

Outstanding Stay in Every Way
We loved Cardinal Cottage. Location was perfect for all the hiking and sight-seeing we wanted to do. The house was very cute, very clean, and very well stocked. It had everything we needed. Host was extremely responsive. The neighborhood is quiet with glorious trees and some wildlife to observe. We could not have been happier.

Outdoors vacation
Perfect home and location near New River Gorge. We hiked, rock climbed and rafted each day. We stayed very active, so the hot tub and comfy beds were a blessing. The family also enjoyed the game room in the evenings. The house is very close to Fayetteville, which had great options for food.

West Virginia getaway
We wanted to see the New River Gorge & surrounding area and the Cardinal Cottage was the perfect place to stay. It had everything we needed including 2 king size beds. It was located in a peaceful setting on 11 acres. Our group consisted of 2 couples around 70 yrs old. The house had easy access and the 2 showers in the bathrooms were easy to get into. The owner was super responsive and answered all of our questions. We had a wonderful week!

Loved our stay
Location was great for visiting New River Gorge. We enjoyed the beautiful property, seen deer every evening along with a beautiful sunset and turkeys in morning. Property had everything we needed to make breakfast each day. We also had a fire every night. The fire pit was great for relaxing and all the outside furniture was clean and in great shape. Bed was comfy and house was nice and quiet. We are already talking about coming back to this property and we never stay the same place twice. We loved it.

Happily Exhausted
Everyday was an adventure for our group of two couples from NJ who travel together every year. Biking (downhill was the best!), eating out at Gaines Estates and other local restaurants, grilling in, boating, and more biking were some of the highlights of our trip. We were all able to get a good night sleep for each of the five nights of our stay. The wildlife in the backyard was a bonus. Kitchen was well-stocked! Wild and wonderful time. We love West Virginia.

Wonderful!
The home is well appointed and situated close to all the major attractions while still providing a secluded, country experience. The bonus game room was a real treat as well, especially for our older teenage boys. The wildlife and well-groomed path around the property were a great touch. We saw deer every evening in the field. We would definitely stay again!

Such an amazing home base for a visit to the NP
We stayed for a week-long family trip to explore the New River Gorge National Park and the surrounding areas. The location was perfect, the house was so nicely renovated (cooking in the kitchen was dreamy!) and we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. Everything was exactly as it is represented in the listing! The host has amazing communication and was able to quickly resolve any small issues we had. I highly recommend this location!

The BEST place ever!
If you’re looking to visit West Virginia and/or visiting the New River Gorge, look no further. This beautiful home is remarkable inside and out! Everything from the finishings, comfortable beds, incredible scenery (we had a family of deer visit us multiple times), and the location was absolutely perfect. The hot tub was so wonderful to come home to after a long day. And the Host is so accommodating and thoughtful in every way. We left some clothing behind and they contacted us immediately. I highly recommend staying here for any occasion. I know my friends and I look forward to doing so again in the future!!

Excellent location
We had a wondeful time at the Cardinal Cottage. From walking in to a fresh, clean smell to the great layout and newness everywhere we coud habe not been happier. The kids loved the outbuilding game room fully equpped wih TV, fusball table, wifi, and AC. They spent a lot of time out there. The main trails were within 10 minutes. We would definitely stay here again. I would highly recommend it!

Pleasant and comfortable
Cardinal cottage played host to a group of 6 couples and one dog. We had everything we needed and especially enjoyed the hot tub to soothe our aches after rafting and hiking. The views from the deck were also a highlight as we spent every morning and every evening watching deer and listening to bluegrass. Home is very close to a couple of great hiking trails, rafting outfitters, and the Burrito bar at Breeze Hill. The beds were comfortable and we appreciated the large kitchen for our group. We look furward to returning.

Escape from the hustle and bustle
We stayed at the Cardinal Cottage while we were looking at homes for sale in WV. It was so refreshing to be able to go back the the cottage and unwind and destress in the hot tub from all the frustrations house hunting brings. Our pups loved their walks around the property and just being outside in the fresh air (its always too hot for them in SWFL). This is the best lil escape one can have while still feeling like home away from home! We enjoyed our stay beyond words….thank you for allowing us to enjoy the home!

Beautiful Property
We just spent the holiday weekend at this cottage and it exceeding our expectations! The home itself is beautiful and spacious. More than enough room for my guest and I. The area is quiet and the property is secluded enough to really let you enjoy nature. Every morning we had a family of deer grazing in the yard. The home itself is also in an ideal location for activities. Only 4 minutes from Endless Wall trail (highly recommend) and about 1hr from Charleston. You’re also close to shopping and grocery stores which came in handy for some extra beer runs lol. Overall this home was amazing. Highly recommend for your next get together!

Perfect getaway with the pups!
The Cardinal Cottage was a perfect getaway for my husband and I with our pups! The proximity to “downtown” Fayetteville was awesome - I highly recommend the taphouse. We did some great hikes within 5 minutes of the cottage. We loved exploring the property. The back deck is enclosed so it was so comforting to let the dogs off leash while we got to relax and enjoy the property views! Hot tub was a huge bonus. The cottage is newly updated and had everything we needed to cook. The cottage does sit close to the road with neighbors across the street but the road was not very busy and we only saw the neighbor once - we didn’t mind at all. Overall, this was such a great getaway for a few days. It’s an excellent mixture of feeling secluded and cozy while also having all of the amenities you need! We hope to come back and stay again in the future!

Clean & Nice Amenities
I stayed at this house with a group of friends who does an annual trip to the Fayetteville area at least every year. It was very clean and nicely decorated with good quality, bedding/linens, etc.. The general location was nice. It’s a gorgeous area in general, but the house is very close to other houses, so if seclusion is important, know that it is not secluded, however, the way the house is set up with a larger porch facing the game room, fire pit, and a beautiful open meadow, it does feel private when you are out back. The hot tub, fire pit, and string lights really enhance the outdoor space. We loved the large TVs in the living room and bedrooms and enjoyed the high quality kitchen appliances. We probably wouldn’t go back in the winter because we like a fireplace, but we would definitely consider going back in the summer or early fall.

The cardinal house was amazing!
The cardinal house was amazing. There was 6 of us. Ranging 7 to 40. Plenty for everyone to enjoy. My 14 year old went whitewater rafting for the first time. This home was a short 10 minute drive right down the street. Plenty of shopping near by. The house itself was perfect. The game room was a great addition. Wish we had more time with our stay to enjoy some more. Fully stocked kitchen, and a table to feed an army! The land was beautiful and my two fur babies loved all that room to run. Definitely 10/10 and will be coming back. Thank you again for a wonderful stay! (They have a book underneath the main tv in the living room, previous guest have wrote in it. Have talked about their experiences and things they did. I’ve not seen that in a rental before and thought was a fabulous idea.. highly recommend reading on your first night)

Beautiful, Well-Stocked Cabin in a Killer Location
Every year my girlfriend and my college best friend and his girlfriend go on a “camping” trip - obviously we don’t stay in tents but we do try and find a nice place - this cabin was more than nice, it was freakin’ awesome!! The cabin is in the perfect location - 5min from Endless Wall, 10min from White Water Rafting, 7min from the Bridge (yes that massive bridge!), and 15min from the grocery store but it sits on a beautiful chunk of land and we saw lots of deer and turkeys! The back porch feels wonderfully secluded looking out from the hot tub into the woods although there are neighbors across the street (in the front) but it was no bother. Inside you can tell the hosts completely renovated this property and we loved the look and feel of it - loved the furniture and kitchen! Speaking of the kitchen, it was great to have everything we could need to cook right down to the spices and pans. Also has a grill hooked up to a huge tank outside. We LOVED our stay at the Cardinal Cottage and none of our group wanted to leave as it felt like it became our home away from home for our long weekend. We hope to return again in the future to this beautiful cabin in wonderful West Virginia!

Amazing Getaway close to Fayetteville and New River Gorge Natl. Park
We loved stayed at the Cardinal Cottage. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Plus we loved that we could bring our (very well behaved) dog with us. We cooked several meals in the kitchen and grilled out on the deck. It was super easy to do both. The back deck (with hot tub) was fantastic. We used the hot tub every night basically. Star gazing from the tub was fantastic. Plus the back deck is fenced in (with a gate) so we could keep our dog out there with us and let her just wander the deck. We also loved all the property behind the house. We often would do a short walk along the edge of the field with our dog. So nice to have that space. Lastly I can't explain how nice it is to have a king sized bed. That's what we have at home and it's such a nice touch to have the same in a vacation house. OH and the fabulous Endless Wall hike is just like 5 minute drive with the main visitor center for the New River Gorge National Park like a 10 minute drive. We were able to go into the park everyday and drive into Fayetteville easily. Definitely on our list to come back to the house if we are in the area again!

Wonderful place to Stay
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was super clean and met all our families needs and wants. The hot tub was very clean and a nice addition to our stay. Beds were comfy and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Thank you to the owner who even decorated for Christmas as we were having a Christmas get together with our son and his family, and the house was just perfect! Our grandson loved the game room. You will not be disappointed with this rental!
