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...........

We had a great time at the house. There was plenty of hiking nearby. The house was very clean and well supplied. The beds were comfortable and the view was great! Our only disappointment was that we didn't realize there was no cell phone coverage. The wifi worked well!

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!

Riverfront Retreat

A modern house with rustic vibe nestled in a quiet wooded area overlooking the river. Enjoy the outdoors with multilevel decks, hot tub, fire pit and inner tubes for the river. Bedrooms are very comfortable-all linens are provided. Beware of the loose gravel hill on the road down to the property. Also you must buy or bring your own cooking oil, spices, condiments, etc because nothing is supplied except for salt/pepper.

Wonderful property!

I met up with friends for a girls weekend here and it was perfect. The three bedrooms and bathrooms allowed each of us to have our own space and the common areas were very comfortable for our time together. We spent quite a bit of time in the Adirondack chairs overlooking the river - it was so peaceful. The fire pit offered a great gathering place in the evenings. It was a fantastic trip!
