Heard many great things about New River Gorge area we just had to see for ourselves. Great place and location to come home to after visiting all the amazing sites. Would definitely come and stay here again
We had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful with so many thoughtful touches. The view was amazing. We loved being able to walk around the beautiful property. It was great having a fenced in backyard for our dog to run around. The owner were so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend.
Beautiful setting with great view and wildlife. Great place if you want to get away and chill.
Hosts live next door and are very friendly and helpful without being overbearing - were very accommodating when my wife experienced broken ankle while at New River Gorge.
If you like remote, this is the place! Peaceful, clean, great front porch views. Host was very friendly and accessible. Great place to relax after hiking and exploring the New River Gorge Natl Park. Be sure to do the Bridge Walk - spectacular!
This was a great property, peaceful. In the morning and evening we looked forward to seeing the deers! The owners have a trail in the back that is worth exploring if you don't want to go far. The location is great too. Highly recommend this cabin.
This is a wonderful cabin, it has a great view from the front porch the deer and turkeys wonder around and eat all day long. There is a fenced back yard with a deck and a camp fire area. The cabin was spotless. Overall a great place to stay.
Clean and pet friendly! Great place to relax and get away from busy life. Love the pond for fishing, the front porch for relaxing and watching nature, the secure backyard for pets and hanging out.
What a gem nestled in the mountains. The home is well appointed and very comfortable. I sat on the porch watching deer and turkey for hours. Will definitely stay here again!
We had a great stay. The on-site owners were extremely respectful. The location was close to the park locations while still feeling remote and peaceful - we woke up most days to +4 whitetail deer and the sound of bullfrogs. Great location and dog friendly. Would recommend.
If you’re looking for off the beaten path, this is it! Very peaceful and lots of wildlife. Owners are on the property but you hardly ever see them. And when you do they are nothing but helpful & friendly. It’s a bit of a drive to some of the area parks and attractions but well worth it for the tranquility that this rental offers.
A wonderful home in a beautiful setting. The property is peaceful, and relaxing. The home is well equipped and very comfortable. The hosts are wonderful, and helpful. Check in is a breeze. We loved sitting on the front desk in the morning drinking coffee and watching the deer and turkey. We had adventures to many of the nearby hikes, and back to the house at night for wine and wildlife watching. After dark there is a smokeless fire pit to sit around. If you need a get away, this is it! The only negative is that we didn't book it for longer! Will definitely go back if I have a chance
Great location for visiting the 2 state parks and national park in the area.
The house was great. We would see deer and turkey multiple times a day not even 20 feet from the house. They have a trail you can walk on the property along with a pond you can fish in. Great experience!
Amazing place to stay close to all the hiking, sight seeing, rafting, and food. Super clean. Owners are great people. Abundant wildlife to see from the front porch. Fun fishing the pond. Lots of bass. Owner caught us some fresh minnows to use for bait. Hiking trails on property were great also. Would definitely stay again.
Beautiful scenery quiet, private house with amazing scenery
My husband and I had a wonderful 3-day stay. We loved the seclusion of the house and beautiful scenery. The house was absolutely beautiful and has everything you need and more.
