The cottage was clean and well appointed. The hoast was friendly and responded quickly to any concerns. Our boys loved sledding down the hill and we all enjoyed the hot tub. I can't wait to take the family back again next year.

Cute little get away

My family of 5 had an amazing time. Such a cute place to stay! I will definitely stay again when we come back to West Virginia. I love that there is wood delivery and the hot tub really helped make the trip unforgettable.

It’s a beautiful place and it was perfect for a little getaway with my boyfriend! It was very comfortable, clean, and quiet. The kitchen is pretty well stocked. If you want to use the dishwasher you will need to bring your own pods. There is another cabin fairly close to this one and within view of the fire pit/hot tub area. The only small complaints that I had were that the refrigerator is noisy and it could be heard in the bedrooms, also the coffee table is a bit wobbly. Those weren’t big issues for us, but should be noted.

We had such a lovely stay here! Wildflower Cottage is even more spacious than it seems in the pictures. The hot tub was easy to use and the host provided cleaner for it, and the fireplace inside kept us nice and toasty when we would come back inside. I highly recommend ordering firewood using the services at the cabin too, Chad arrived within 15 minutes with enough wood for us to use all weekend. I did struggle a little with check in, but that was my own fault for not screenshotting the instructions before losing service. But the wifi was easy to connect to and solved that problem! Will definitely be back!
