The cabin is located in Slatyfork, two miles from the four season resort of Snowshoe Mountain. It sleeps six in three queen size beds with one bedroom and a cozy loft.

One of the most popular recreational activities in Pocahontas County is fishing. Eight Rivers (Cheat, Cherry, Cranberry, Elk, Gauley, Greenbrier, Tygart Valley, Williams) and countless streams originate in the area.

Take a scenic ride on the Cass railroad(check seasonal schedule and buy tickets ahead because they book up quickly), mountain bike, hike, fish, bike the Greenbrier River Trail or float the Greenbrier River. Visit the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, Lost World Caverns, Falls of Hill Creek, Droop Mountain State Park, Beartown State Park, Watoga State Park and Seneca State Forest.

Nationally recognized, the Highland Scenic Highway, is a must see. Cutting across Monongahela National Forest, this 43-mile route, much of which follows Rte. 150, the highest major road in the state- provides dramatic views of the Allegheny Highlands. This scenic byway, accessible from April through November (weather permitting) begins just south of Slatyfork and travels through hardwood forests to Richwood.

Along the way, you’ll find wildlife, waterfalls, 150 miles of hiking trails, and the 36,000 acre Cranberry Bogs Wilderness Area and Visitors Center. The county is home to two other nationally recognized scenic byways as well that are accessible year-round.

Why the Owner Chose Snowshoe

Our cabin is conveniently located to enjoy all activities in the area.

The Unique Benefits at this Log Cabin

We enjoy our location in the mountains since we are from a coastal region.

A
Mountain Mama's Cabin

Just off Hwy 219. Turn into Slatyfork Farms entrance and then turn left onto small gravel road leading to three cabins in a row. Ours is the one closest to Slatyfork Farms.

 

Owner's Map of Snowshoe

Our family including our two college-aged children loves to ski. We also love coastal living in our home of Savannah,GA. Since we rarely get snow, we started visiting West Virginia to enjoy snow and skiing. After visiting the area during other seasons, we realized that we loved West Virginia year-round. We bought our home with plans of renting it out to visitors. We feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to enjoy the cabin and share it with others. Visit soon in any season and enjoy all West Virginia has to offer from the comfort of our cabin!

    • Very nice, very clean, sleeps 6 people but was just the perfect size for 2 (and 2 Akitas). The water was stinky upon arrival but we called and that was taken care of within 3 hours (on a Saturday, no less), which was very nice.

      Homeowner Response:
      Cabin is on a shared well which is maintained by the previous owner. We give all guests the info for contacting this person as he depends on being notified when treatment chemicals need to be replenished. Chrissie

    • We stayed in the cabin in early October for a three day relaxation getaway. The weather was excellent, and the cabin was so comfortable. We toured North and East, enjoying driving through Snowshoe, Cass, valleys in Virginia, and going past the NRAO. The day we left, two deer walked along the road near highway 66, then right down the middle of the road. Our dogs were fired up! Perhaps a one-word summary would be "peaceful".

    • We visited the cabin last weekend which was the first weekend in Oct. It was amazing!! My husband raced at a mountain bike race at Snowshoe so we were very close. I loved that we saved money by being able to run back to the cabin for lunch. Chrisie(sorry if I spelled wrong) is one of the sweetest people I have ever delt with. We tried to rent the cabin in June but I got into a car wreck and even though we were unable to visit she sent a email sending me a speedy recovery. I was very pleased to learn that the cabin was available for us. I would recommend it to anyone.

    • We were there March 6th-8th and had a great time. The house provided everything we could possibly have needed with the exception of groceries. However there was a basket with tea, hot chocolate, coffee and creamer, which was wonderful to be able to make a pot while getting settled! It looked exactly like the pictures so no disappointment and Chrissy couldn't have been any nicer or more helpful. My daughter and I enjoyed just getting up and having coffee out on the porch just as much as going to the slopes! It was very relaxing and cozy! I'd go back tomorrow if I could.

    • Had a wonderful winter vacation. My daughter, husband and her friend had a great weekend on the slopes while her dog, my granddog, relaxed and had pleasure walks around the farm. It could not have been more perfect. Thanks to Chrissy and her family for their hospitality.

    • We had a great stay at Mountain Mama's Cabin. Wonderful location for a ski weekend at Snowshoe. While we were there the temperature stayed in the teens and about 8 inches of snow fell. We stayed warm the whole time. The cabin was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We would recommend this location to anyone. Thanks for a wonderful weekend.

    • We enjoyed our stay over President's Day weekend at Mountain Mama's. The place was clean and comfortable and was a great homey place to curl up after a long day on the slopes. Chrissie was very efficient in answering questions and providing information needed prior to our trip, which was much appreciated.
