We had a great weekend getaway!! Quiet and peaceful! Weather was cold, which no one can control of course, but we were able to use the fireplace. There was wood available and you could buy fire starters if you need. Very clean, could maybe use a little updating, but it is over all a great place to stay. You are close to others, however it was very quiet. We would definitely stay again.

Easy river access

We were all pleased with our stay! Great hot tub, lots of outdoor space with a nice firepit, wonderful river access great for tubing and relaxing. The house had plenty of room for everyone with lots of table space to play games. Took away a star because the patio area and furniture could use a good washing but all 5 of us would recommend staying here!

Great property. Kitchen was very well apportioned - plenty of plates/bowls/cups, as well as pots/pans. The weather was fantastic - the only time spent inside was when we were sleeping. Backyard deck, hot tub, firepit, and view were terrific. We'll be back...........

Great family getaway

Property was easy to find very accommodating and spacious. My family is on year 3 of a family trip in or new at Elkins area and we have decided this is the perfect fit. The hot tub was large the yard and fire pit super nice and plenty of games like Cornhole to play. Right by the water so if you want to fish/swim. We will be back next year for the annual trip!
