Please note: Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but due to the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or similar—especially during certain seasons. We appreciate your understanding as nature tends to leave its mark, no matter how often we tidy up! Pet Policy We’re happy to welcome dogs to join you on your getaway! Please note that due to allergies, we’re unable to accommodate cats. A $29 pet fee applies per furry friend, per night to help cover additional cleaning and care. Thanks for understanding—we look forward to hosting you and your pup! Longer Stays For stays of 14 nights or longer, guests will be asked to e-sign a rental agreement prior to arrival. This agreement helps us comply with local requirements while protecting the property, and will be sent in advance for review. Beyond the cabin itself, we love how close we are to New River Gorge National Park (only a 10 minute drive away). The park has excellent hiking, views from the bridge, and of course whitewater rafting. These are several outfitters to plan your river excursion or mountain biking trail ride right nearby. 10/13: Please note hot tub is currently unavailable due to needed repairs. Everything you need for a great getaway!

Tony was a nice, flexible host. The property was very neat, clean and close to the New River gorge. The hot tub was a plus. It was ideal for our family weekend.

This was a great place to stay. We have two small children with us so what stood out to us was the games they provided. The girls loved the connect four and the corn hole game. My older girl loved the coloring as well. The amount of towels that were provided was also a huge bonus since there were 4 of us and we traveled without beach towels for the hot tub. They also provided children’s kitchen ware and kids soap! I also appreciated the recommendations provided for restaurants and things to do. We went to pies and pints and it was great. They had a playground for the kids and the pizza was amazing!! We also drove the Fayateville bridge trail and it was a great drive with amazing views! Both of these were recommended by the host! And as always the hot tub and fire pit were great amenities that we utilized. It was also within a few minutes to stores, gas stations and places to eat. We would definitely stay again if we pass thru the area!!
