Moose Knob Cabin - Maysville
Moose Knob is our little home away from home. Here you’ll have all the creature comforts of city living, but with the peace and quiet of country life. From stunning hikes in Dolly Sods to a cozy evening around the fire, there’s something for everyone - just under 3 hours from D.C. and 3 hours from Pittsburgh.
There’s no cell service, but we have fast Starlink internet.
So bring your family, friends and, of course, your pups to see what we love so much about our side of the mountain.
The space Sitting on the edge of the Monongahela National Forest, Moose Knob is surrounded by 20 acres of hickory trees, mossy rocks and feathery ferns.
Guest access We have a fully stocked kitchen, stocked with everything you would ever need to cook or bake. We also provide a variety of spices and teas. We have chef’s knives, InstaPot, blender, french press, coffee grinder, juicer and a variety of baking and cooking dishes.
We also have a grill on the deck and a fire pit in the yard for roasting s’mores.
Enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine up at our overlook, just a short hike up the road behind the house. For the chillier days, there’s a fire pit up there as well. Or cozy up near the wood stove in the living room and go to town on one of the many puzzles.
Up in the loft, there’s a queen-sized bed, and a cozy chair if you’re looking for a spot to curl up with a book. In the green room, there’s a full bed, and the blue room has a queen. In the living room, the green couch is a sleeper sofa, if you need another full-sized bed.
During the day, there are many options for outdoor activities, from hiking to kayaking to cavern exploring. See our house book for more details on our favorite spots and recommendations.
Other things to note There is no cell service at the house, so please log on to our Starlink wifi to make calls and send texts. We’re on a mountainside, so 4WD is needed in the winter.
Dogs are welcome with an additional cleaning fee.
We provide plenty of firewood. Just help yourself to the wood on the porch. You may want to bring your own starters.
We are a hop, skip and a jump from a number of great hikes and other cool outdoor activities (see our guidebook for our recommendations).
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
