Great, Quiet Vacation House even on Memorial Day
We had a great 4 day break and were looking for somewhere quiet compared to most Memorial Day lake locations. The house is right on the river. THe levels were low so it was more thans afe with supervision for our 4 kids ages 4-9 out there. We tubed and kayaked down the river. Unfortunately, water levels were too low for us to get the canoes out but the property has them as well for a very modest watercraft fee ($75) that covers the entire stay. The setting is beautiful, quiet, and full of wildlife. Just what we were looking for. Great hiking is very close.

Test drive before booking with the kids
The property was fine although a little sterile feeling. Not cozy but I get it; easy to clean and turnover for guests. Dishwasher stunk badly like another reviewer mentioned. The biggest turnoff and sole reason for never returning is the surveillance cameras. I understand why an owner would want them but they were not disclosed anywhere. Not disclosing the visible cameras made me wonder if there were more that I could not see. Very disappointed and nearly caused me to abandon the rental. We felt uncomfortable and watched the entire stay. I would not bring my kids to a such a place that could be monitoring their every move and listening to every word spoken. If you want a secluded river location and don't mind big brother, this place is perfect.

Amazing river front cabin
We could not have enjoyed our stay more. Host was flexible and accommodating, cabin was clean and well stocked. Great remote location that is easily accessible to so much of what this area of WVa has to offer. We hope to come back and enjoy the cabin in the summer. Great find!

Simply amazing
Having the solitude is very much needed. The location by the river was perfect. The house was amazing. Response time from owner was the best I have ever been apart of. If you are going anywhere within a mile of this place and need somewhere to stay, this is it.

a slice of heaven
Really enjoyed our stay. It's a great house, secluded yet not far to pick up groceries. If you're looking for peace and quiet-- this is the place. Had lots of fun in the river. My husband and son fished every day. Definitely use the inner tubes for a lovely float down the river. Very well stocked home and Jason is quick to reply to questions.
