Charming Yet Wild Cozy Retro Cabin Hot Tub, Sunroom, Fire Pit & Trout! Hiking!
Welcome to Rainbow Cabin #1 — a cozy-yet-bold retreat nestled within Revelle’s River Resort, where rustic charm meets surprising modern flair. This former 1950s schoolhouse has been thoughtfully transformed into a stylish and inviting two-bedroom cabin just steps away from the shimmering Shavers Fork River. Whether you're craving a weekend unplugged, an outdoor adventure, or quality time with your favorite people (or pups), Rainbow Cabin #1 delivers comfort with character.
Historic Roots, Modern Soul From the moment you arrive, you’ll be struck by the unique blend of nostalgic design and updated amenities. The exterior still hints at the building’s schoolhouse past, but step inside and you’re greeted with warm wood paneling, modern fixtures, plush furniture, and thoughtful touches throughout.
Sun-Drenched Sunroom for Soulful Lounging Yes, it’s heated. Yes, it has a TV. And yes, it just might be your favorite spot in the cabin. Sip your morning coffee while ducks and rabbits wander by or stretch out on the cozy couch for a Netflix marathon on a rainy day. The expansive windows in the sunroom bring the outdoors in, offering comfort no matter the season.
Two Bedrooms That Whisper 'Relax ' Both bedrooms feature ultra-cozy queen-size beds, dressed in soft linens with a rustic, cabin-in-the-woods vibe. Warm lighting, vintage-inspired details, and a shared modern bathroom with a shower make this a restful space for everyone.
Living Area: Where Rustic Meets Relaxed Kick back on the queen-size sleeper sofa with a good book or a good movie. The flat-screen TV with cable and the efficient electric pellet stove (pellets included) set the scene for cozy evenings after a day outdoors. Whether you’re binging your favorite shows or catching up on old stories with friends, this space is all about comfort.
Cook Up a Memory in the Kitchen The fully equipped kitchen includes a full-size refrigerator, microwave, stovetop, and drip coffee maker — plus all the cookware you’ll need to make a hearty mountain breakfast or a fireside chili. The adjacent dining table is perfect for family dinners or spirited board game nights.
Outdoor Space That Brings People Together Outside, you’ll find your very own charcoal grill, picnic table, and private fire pit. Stargaze by the flames, toast some marshmallows, or enjoy a grilled trout dinner al fresco. Don’t forget the shared hot tub tucked into a screened-in gazebo — perfect for soaking sore hiking muscles or simply melting away stress.
Bonus Perks That Make the Difference:
> Fast, reliable WiFi for streaming or remote work
> Cable TV in both the living area and sunroom
> Window AC and strip heat units for climate comfort
> Pellet stove for extra coziness in colder months
> Parking right outside your door
Beyond the Cabin: Resort Amenities Guests at Rainbow 1 enjoy access to the full Revelle’s River Resort experience:
> A fun splash pad for the kiddos
> Camp store stocked with essentials, snacks, and souvenirs
> Scheduled family activities during peak season
> Tube rentals during high summer water
> Friendly staff available at the camp store (open April 1–November 1)
The Location: Wild Yet Convenient You’ll be tucked into the heart of West Virginia’s mountain magic, yet just a short drive from the charming town of Elkins. Whether it’s fly fishing in the Shavers Fork, hiking nearby trails, or exploring small-town treasures, you’re perfectly placed for peace and play.
