2nd Time Staying at this Fantastic Property

We have an annual white water rafting trip. This was our second time staying on this property and running the Gauley river. The location and amenities of this property are perfect in every way, and the communication with the hosts is super. If we return to do the Gauley river again next year, then this is our first choice for accomodations.

family get-away

We loved this home. It felt like we were tucked away in the woods but we were so close to New River Gorge and Summersville Lake with great activities available. We especially enjoyed family time with the hot tub, corn hole, fire pit and grill. We would recommend to anyone visiting this area.

Repeat guest

Our group has stayed at this property previously. We found the quality of the property and the professionalism of the host to be consistent with our previous stay which brought us back this time. We were able to enjoy a walk in the neighborhood during our stay and found it to be a beautiful and delightfully friendly community. Would definitely recommend for a nice gathering of friends or family.

Great weekend

Love the layout of the house with front, back and upstairs porches plus fire pit in backyard . Beds were comfortable and the rooms were nicely decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked and everything was very clean and neat. There many board games present in the living room. Our only disappointment was the recliner and couch needs replaced.

Cabin in the woods

Absolutely beautiful cabin and perfect location. Highly recommend- communication was exceptional. Our family was gathering for death in the family and Sheila was gracious enough to let us check in early. Although gathered for a sad occasion we were able to be together and make some great memories. The hot tub, fire pit and location make this home the perfect home away from home.

Great place

We enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly as described, and check in was easy. The location was great for visiting New River Gorge and Summersville Lake. We would have enjoyed a dining table, but by moving the drop leaf table next to the bar, we were able to have seating for 7. The hot tub was very nice especially after spending days horseback riding, hiking, and rafting. The kitchen was well stocked, and there were plenty of towels, blankets, etc. Overall, it was a great place, and we would happily stay there again.
