Secluded, Peaceful and Gorgeous
We were spending a few days attending a local festival and by God’s Grace found this gorgeous property. Extremely clean, rustic decor, very comfortable. Fun games, good wifi, and we had a blast with Deer Pong. Enjoy the wildlife which visits, including deer and a very inquisitive hummingbird! Cows watch you from the lower pasture.
I would recommend for anyone looking for secluded peace! Bring food. Nearest grocery is a hike!

Cozy little cabin in the woods
Everything was clean. So happy with our stay. Check in was easy. The cabin is super cute and cozy. Secluded in the woods. Beautiful scenery.
Our stay was wonderful. No phonecalls could come in or out but we enjoyed that extra quiet. The WiFi helped with maps and boredom. The Coe county store down the road was really nice. Great food and prices without having to go too far. We did Fasnacht this year and this place was close by which helped greatly!
The steep incline to get to the cabin shocked us at first but we soon mastered it.

Middle of nowhere
Very much in the middle of nowhere. Long drive to everywhere. Did not have internet the first couple of days because we were emailed the wrong password. Once we got that straightened out, the internet worked great.

I was surprised to have to make my own bed when we arrived
There are plenty of beds for the number of guests advertised, but the "commons" area cramped. We could not all eat at the table together. No room in the kitchen to cook when someone sitting at the table

Short getaway
Everything went smoothly from checking in and out. As stated the property is isolated but that was part of the allure. We visited Green Bank observatory, West Virginia wildlife center and Audra state park. Travelled from Pittsburgh area and stopped at Tygart lake and enjoyed the floatables on the lake for some good fun. So numerous things to do as well as night time fires at the cabin. Definitely recommend!

A perfect break from the world
My husband and I visited some friends in the area during the July 4th week. This cabin is the perfect accommodation. It is tucked away but easy to get to, surrounded by nature but equipped with all the modern amenity one would need even during an extended stay. It doesn’t look it from the outside but is actually quite spacious! It is so clean and tastefully decorated, and I felt at home and at ease right away. Communication with the host is easy and fast. Would definitely rent a cabin from Sheryl and Derek again!

Excellent cabin in the woods.
Very easy to rent. Great communication when I needed to add a dog deposit. The property is beautiful. The cabin has a couple quirks, but it’s obvious that some hard work went into building it. My buddies and I really enjoyed our stay here. It’s quiet, secluded, has all the amenities, including Wi-Fi. Split firewood would be a nice touch even if it was an extra fee. I give this cabin an 8/10. I will definitely consider it for next reunion trip. Thank you, it was wonderful.

Early Spring at "The Deerling"
Our mid-April stay at "The Deerling" was quiet and peaceful. Because the trees were not yet full, we were able to enjoy the view of the farm on the other side French Reeder. The turkeys and roosters with their morning rituals and the cattle lowing in the evening were a welcome change from our norm. Watching the deer up the ridge in the evening was enjoyable as well. Because there is much less town/city light saturation at the cabin, we were able to see more stars in the night sky than ever before -- just beautiful!
The cabin itself was clean, comfortable, and nicely done. The water pressure was a bit lacking as far as showering goes, but that's more an observation than a complaint. We really enjoyed having a full kitchen as other cabins we've visited did not afford that luxury. Overall, "The Deerling" was a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives here lately. Much thanks to Cheryl and her family!
