Charming cottage with pond in Heart of New River Gorge

Holly’s Pond House is a charming 3 bedroom cottage very close to New River Gorge and Adventures on the Gorge. This is a delightful cottage that is tucked away with its own fishing pond, but very close to everything the area has to offer. It is spacious and cozy, and the perfect place for travelers to explore, rest and relax.
Relax with your morning coffee on the front porch overlooking the pond, or enjoy the expansive deck with grill and hot tub after a day of adventures. At night roast marshmallows and tell stories around the campfire. Be sure and bring your fishing gear should you like to fish in your own pond (stocked frequently but whipped out by predators quickly so fish are typically small).
3 bedrooms with 2 baths. 2 queen, 1 king bed, and a queen sleeper sofa. King room has attached full bath, the second bath is off the living area. All amenities including, full kitchen with new appliances, including double oven, dishwasher and disposal, central heat and air, washer and dryer, Netflix, Hulu, and WiFi. All bedrooms have their own televisions.
There is a ramp off the back deck and a walk-in shower for those with mobility issues.
Location is the best: 2 min drive to Adventurs on the Gorge, 5 minute drive the New River Gorge Bridge, and 6 minute drive to downtown Fayetteville.

My friends and I thought this was the perfect place for us to ring in the new year. We had a larger group and the layout made us feel like we had plenty of room for everyone. The jacuzzi was great to relax in and the property was spacious. Our hostess was friendly and easy to communicate with. Would reccomend this spot!

Fun for the Family
We had a short stay but it was a 10 out of 10 experience. The home is only about a 5 min drive from Adventure on the Gorge where we went rafting. The interior of the home was for clean and comfortable. But it was the pond out front that made this home an instant hit. Our kids had an absolute blast fishing in the pond and had great success. We hope we are lucky enough to find availability in the future to rent again.

Short Spring vacation
This place is so comfortable. We loved it. We were there for 2 nights, used the hot tub, Keurig coffee maker, microwave, stove, fridge, and tv. Everything worked great and the place was very clean. Stop at a grocery store before arriving because there is not one super close. However, this place was convenient to all activities.

Best weekend!!
This property was absolutely beautiful!! The view of the pond from the deck in so nice! The house had everything we need and was very comfortable! Plenty of room! One of our guests used the hot tub 2 days in a row and loved it! We fished and caught several small bluegill in a short time! Nice little pond! The living room is very cozy, on a rainy day we watched movies and sat out on the porch drinking coffee! We all agree, we will be back!!

AMAZING! It had extra trash bags, dishwasher pods; the things you need to leave it the way you found it. The hot tub was the reason we booked this cottage. It was a welcoming spot to relax after running the 50K in town. The fire pit was a nice way to unwind upon arrival. Thank you for thinking of all the little things. This cottage had raised the bar for all of our future VBROs.

Perfect base camp for exploring New River Gorge
The Pond House was very clean and comfortable. Exactly what we expected from the description and reviews. We enjoyed the hot tub daily after our excursions. You do not need 4WD as one reviewer mentioned. There is lack of storage on all fronts for food and clothing and nowhere to put things in master bath sink area. Since there were only 2 of us it wasn’t an issue and I would not detract a star for that. We also had a fire in the fire pit, used the grill and enjoyed the rocking chairs on the front porch. We would stay again if we came back and highly recommend you book ot if it’s available. Very close to the main visitors center at New River Gorge national Park as well as Adventures on the gorge. We salut the hosts for providing a comfortable, clean and attractive place to make ourselves at home for a few days.

Nice for a short stay, but not any longer than a few daya
The property was located in a great place to see the area of New River Gorge. We were staying for 8 nights but fiund it difficult to unpack as there are not closets and the rooms that do have a closet do not have a bar to hang anything on. It could use a deep cleaning and dusting, windows washed etc. The beds are comfortable but quite squeaky. Like i said nice for a few days but unable to umpack made it difficult to get settled in.

So relaxing!
We were headed to North Carolina and found out our location had to be canceled due to Helene. We reached out very last minute (as we were driving to the area) and the host was so incredibly gracious. The house was super comfortable and in such a relaxing area. We would highly recommend this host and location. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Perfect Location!
Easy straightforward check-in to the property and everything was in great order. We visited to hike and white water raft the location was perfectly situated between the rafting outfitter, Adventures on the Gorge, and the New River Gorge NP visitors center. The hot tub was perfect at the end of the day to relax and rejuvenate for the next day of adventure. PJ was a very responsive host. Hope to come back again next year!!
