  Very nice value for this rental..Beautiful view of the river from the elevated deck..the cabin seems very new, wood floors in very nice condition..I have been going to the New River Gorge for a decade and have yet to stay anywhere nicer for the money. The place was clean and had sleeping areas for all in our party. We went hiking and climbing during the day and came back to cook dinner and build a campfire at night. I would certainly stay here again. Cheers!

  In spite of beautiful weather we unwound and relaxed in the living room all weekend. Having plans to explore all the natural beauty of the area we were lulled into napping and reading in this quite and peaceful river escape. I have spent many great weekends in the new river gorge. Anxious to share it we visited the cabin on Army Camp Road. We hardly left the house and never left the neighborhood. Sitting on the banks of the river in front of the house or walking to the state park beach at the end of the road were the limits of our wandering. Many times I have kayaked from the put in up river at Glade Creek (camp ground) to the take out/ put in at Piney Creek right across the river from Army Camp Road. I've rafted many times from the Piney Creek put in down the Upper Gorge to Thurmond. This is a fabulous location for river fun, I will definitely return to sit on the her banks and float down to Army Camp Road or from Army Camp to Thurmond.We loved the cabin and have always loved the NEW. The season starts in May and I'll be there on Army Camp Road, unless you are. I'm so sorry the last reviewer missed the whole point.

  The cabin itself was nice, but not enough to make up for other issues. First the cabin is not in Fayetteville. It is in Prince - about 45 minutes away. The cabin is also not on the banks of the New River. The river is on the other side of the road, and the entire area is posted with no trespassing signs. The cabin was extremely dirty. There were dirty pots and pans, leftover food in the fridge, trash in the bins upstairs and downstairs, something in the oven, left over bar soaps, razors, and shampoos in the tub and shower, someone else's clothes hanging from the line by the washer, and the cabin was extremely dusty with cobwebs and lady bugs everywhere. The worst part was the horribly disgusting smell coming from the blankets. It made me wonder if any of the dishes or sheets were clean. Additionally, the outside lights and the lights above the shower in the basement did not work. Broken pieces from the bed and rocking chair were left lying around. There was no firewood, even though I had specifically asked if there would be. However, there was leftover beer in the basement. There is no TV, Wi-Fi, or cell service at the cabin. There is however, a landline in the cabin. I discovered this late at night, when the owner called and woke me from sleep. He was calling to see if anyone was in the cabin, as it had been brought to his attention that he had double-booked the cabin. After a long, frustrating conversation, I convinced him that my reservations had been confirmed via phone and email after he cashed my check...otherwise I would not have had directions to the house or key pick-up location. I'm not sure what happened to the other renters, but I think they were the lucky ones.

  Owner response: The advertising region provided by VRBO goes USA>West Virginia>Fayettevile as location choices thus we always include the 1 army camp road, Prince WV as we can not list Prince in location banner. Although this has never happened before, the house keeper was not aware that the party was to move in on the dates in question and that is why there may have been some dishes left in washer, etc. We have had over 500 guests and this has never happened before. As you can see from photos at VRBO site, the river bank is in clear view from the porch and can be accessed from our green space area. The information posted in the cabin clearly states that the entire green space is avalable for use and has both a fire ring and firewood. It is posted "no trespassing" just as any hotel would do to prevent non guests from entering the property. Moreover, the property description clearly states "NO TV, NO INTERNET and NO CELL PHONE SERVICE." A land line is provided at no cost for guests to use.

  While several friends and I were planning a white water rafting vacation, we were looking for a cabin to stay in that wasn't part of a resort, because we wanted to have a more natural outdoor feel. This cabin was perfect. You could see the New River from the livingroom. The cabin was very well maintained and, although it was in the national park, it was close enough to the rafting company, as well as, stores in the next town. There was plenty of room for all of us, and we really enjoyed our stay. The owner was very helpful and prompt when answering questions and returning phone calls/emails.

  My wife wanted to go skiing this year and her best friend wanted to give her a surprise visit. So we found this cabin which was an excellent price with a river view just 20 min outside of beckley. The first night there the power went out because a transformer blew (not the properties fault or ours) sow we bought candles, and fire wood and had a wonderful evening the cabin is very well insulated and the fire place was amazing. The electricity came back on the next day and we stayed in the cabin that whole day it is very cozy and was alot of fun. The man who watches the property was very helpful the couple of times we needed him and it really was a great experience. Amazing cabin for the price, it has a rustic feel so dont expect the hilton but it is very clean and everything is ready and easy. Also the directions are very Exact and it is important to pay attention or you might miss the house.
