This is a great property to stay at, nice location, quiet, and lots of deer to keep you company while you are there, very peaceful. The property is very close to the National Park and other areas you will probably visit while there. I would have given this property 5 stars but the beds were very hard (personal preference), water pressure was low, and the kitchen could have used a few more items, like servings dishes, and a few more pots and pans. Regardless of these 3 issues, I would highly recommend this property. I did notify the owner and made him aware and he was very gracious and will check in to these 3 issues. So I'm sure they will be taken care of as Josh is a great host.
The house is exactly as described and shown in photos. It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was convenient for us and the property was peaceful and quiet. Many deer passed through the yard each morning. The pond is more for frogs than fishing but it was still nice. We are in the area often and would definitely stay again.
This lovely home exceeded our expectations in every way. Beautiful, immaculately clean, very comfortable and roomy. Location is so private and peaceful, yet close enough to anything you might need. Great base to explore New River Gorge and other area attractions. Highly recommend this property.
This property is a wonderful place to stay! Beautiful home and surroundings and conveniently located between Summersville and Fayetteville. We enjoyed the porches in the mornings and evenings and loved watching the deer stroll through the neighborhood. The home is comfortable and spacious. I highly recommend this property!
Loved the property. Peaceful and quiet location- loved seeing the visiting wildlife. Jason was very easy to communicate with- he answered promptly whenever we had questions/concerns. Great area to access surrounding parks- so much to do! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
This house was the perfect spot to stay while visiting WV. The quiet neighborhood was very relaxing, and the croaking frogs in the pond added to the wild ambiance. It was wonderful to drink our morning coffee while watching the deer in the yard.The open floor plan was perfect, and the split bedrooms worked well with our two couples. Everything was very clean and tidy when we arrived and we made sure to remove our shoes to keep it that way.The master bath was huge. I loved the walk-in shower and the extra little amenities of soaps and a scale. There was a short supply of TP, but we were able to buy some more.The bed was a little hard for my taste, but I was too tired after a long day of hiking to mind.The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. It could benefit from some serving bowls, but we had glasses for days.I especially enjoyed "documenting" the goings on in the smart fridge with the screen.We enjoyed sitting by the fire in the back yard, but the peagravel, although a safe substrate for the firepit and chairs, was difficult to walk on, especially with tired legs.Check-in and checkout were seamless and the host responded quickly to any queries. We would definitely stay at this house again if we visit the area in the future.
This was probably the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in! It is obviously very new, the decor is simple but uncluttered which I liked. It has a pantry to put food items in which is rare, usually you end up stacking everything on the counters which makes everything seem like a mess. We were very busy so didn't get to enjoy the porch or outdoor areas as much as we would have liked, covered porch and lots of deer and wildlife. It was not too far from the lake and commercial areas of Summersville, about a 15-20 minute drive. It is in a "neighborhood" but the houses are all spread out nicely with wooded lots so it feels very private without feeling unsafe or desolate. Would definitely book it again! In fact we are coming back to the area for a wedding in a few months and I am considering cancelling my hotel and booking this property again if I can find another close by for other family. 10/10!
A really nice home to stay in for our trip to the New River Gorge National Park. We visited numerous state parks in the area and the home was centrally located.Great communication with the owner; our questions were answered within a few hours. Our only complaint is the front door and back door did not have any blinds. Loved getting the digital welcome guide with many recommendations for activities and restaurants in the area. Also appreciated the welcome kit with soaps and laundry detergent.The road to the cabin is not steep but quite narrow and the last portion is gravel, but our car handled it easily.
We had a wonderful time! It is in a beautiful setting. So quiet and peaceful. It is centrally located. We visited Hawks Best, Babcock State Park, Summersville lake, and The New River Gorge. The house itself was so nice. Brand new, immaculate, had everything you could possibly need. We took advantage of the puzzles and games. The owners were super nice and were quick to respond with any questions we may had. I would most definitely recommend!!
The BESTThere are not enough good words to describe this rental. It is wonderful! By far it’s the BEST one in 15 years of renting several times a year. The house is immaculately clean, airy and bright, roomy, nicely equipped and NEW! My husband and I loved the front porch with rocking chairs, the big deck out back, the fire pit and the serene peaceful setting on three acres. Oh so quiet! We were blessed with sunny days and a million stars every night. Most important of all, the host is fantastic. He is thoughtful, caring and helpful. Jason answered every question in minutes and offered suggestions for our vacation. To top it off he helped me with a personal issue, completed within an hour! That’s over and above the call of duty. Thank you, Jason. We would love to come back. — Colleen B.
Loved this property. Went with our 5 kids ages 21 to 12. Great communication from the beginning. Easy check in. Beautiful inside and out. Pond was nice, but no fish (lots of frogs, tho!). Teens loved watching Youtube on the fancy fridge, lol. Had everything we needed for a long weekend, and was convenient to most things in the area. Tv was great for 2 movie nights after long days outdoors. Our only complaint (which I only mention because I know it's important to some people) is that the beds are very FIRM. A few had trouble sleeping, but not enough to take any stars off. It just comes down to preference. Overall we had a wonderful weekend!
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful VRBO! The house was spotless — truly one of the cleanest vacation rentals we’ve ever stayed in. The property itself was gorgeous, with a lovely pond where we had so much fun spotting frogs. We enjoyed relaxing on the front porch rocking chairs, watching deer wander through the yard, and seeing the cattle graze on the neighboring property each morning and evening.The location was perfect — peaceful and private, yet only a short drive to New River Gorge National Park, whitewater rafting, hiking trails, state parks, and the charming downtown area of Fayetteville. Jason was an outstanding host, very attentive with excellent communication. We appreciated the thoughtful amenities, from snacks to starter toiletries and cleaning products. The guidebook they provided with restaurant and activity recommendations was spot on!This property truly felt like a home away from home. We can’t recommend it enough and would love to return for our next NRG adventure!
Great house in a beautiful neighborhood between summersville and Fayetteville. About 15 min to the marina in Summersville.House was well stocked with basic supplies and set up well for our visit. We had two boat trailers and were able to park and navigate the neighborhood well. Host was responsive and informative! Would recommend! Great stay!
This is a lovely cabin in the New River Gorge area, Greta for medium sized groups and families looking for a clean and central place to enjoy everything surrounding it.
The house was very clean, and had starters of all of the basics for us. We had everything we needed to cook meals. We loved having the pond, hearing the frogs, and seeing all the deer! It was a perfect place to relax after a busy day hiking and exploring the area. Jason was great to work with as well. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
