About this property

New River Railhouse: Historic 3 bed on the New River Gorge - New for July 2025

Attention train lovers! Enjoy the elegance of Hinton’s past in our lovingly preserved 1916 brick home, across the street from the Hinton train station and steps from the historic downtown.

Spend the day hiking in New River Gorge National Park, Bluestone Lake or Pipestem Resort State Parks - all within 20 minutes - and spend the evening listening to songs on our vintage jukebox. Relax on one of the three porches, listen to the river and watch the trains, while petting one of the friendly neighborhood cats!

The New River Railhouse is 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, located just across the street from the Hinton train station and adjacent to the train tracks. There are outdoor spaces galore, with a front porch, complete with porch swing, screened-in porch, and a lovely deck.

The house is filled with vintage furniture - including a (mostly) working (and stocked) CD jukebox. There are board games, books, and a few records, plus a kitchen stocked with all the things you need to cook a relatively elaborate meal. We have tried to provide anything that guests may need during their stay, but please, let us know if we missed anything.

In terms of beds, there is a king and two queens, all with new mattresses in 2025.

We bought this house in 2025 and plan to continue to improve it, with help from our guests. We thank you for considering our home.

Please note, because of our proximity to the train tracks, there is train noise. We provide earplugs, should you need them, and recommend the smallest bedroom for lighter sleepers.

Also, guests should at least tolerate cats, as there are several friendly ones who like to visit. Our neighbor, Joel, fixes and feeds them, but they think of our porches as a second home. They do not come inside (for those with allergies), but do like to say hello when guests are outside.

Dogs are allowed with a $35 pet fee.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Check-in was super easy. I received a message with the code and instructions a couple days prior to check-in. The kitchen was equipped with most things you would need.

Older house with charm but still has a nice TV and wifi. Jukebox and record player are cool. Plenty of neighborhood cats to greet you.

The host was quick to respond when we had a problem with a door lock. The historic house was perfectly appointed and close to downtown Hinton. Back patio a great place for nightcap and morning tea. Extra touches such as gifts of homemade soap and chocolates chip cookies were sweet. Providing extra plug in’s for phone, etc charging was very helpful. Towels were plush. I would definitely stay here again!!!

Great host and property!

We truly enjoyed our stay at this house! The historic charm - not only in the house, but also the whole town - was perfect for a history buff like myself. The house was cozy, charming, and clean. The host was welcoming, polite, responsive and helpful!I recommend visiting the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine in nearby Beckley (approx 45 min drive from the house) and the breathtaking New River Gorge National Park! There's also a charming little railroad museum and antique store located right in Hinton. We would 100% stay here again! Thank you!!

About the host

Hosted by Carmen Reed

Host profile image
I live in the Washington, DC metro and work in grants management. I grew up in Appalachia and am always craving the mountains - so much so that my family and I bought a house in the New River Gorge area of West Virginia.

Why they chose this property

Downtown Hinton is quaint and charming, with lively - and delicious - restaurants, cute shops, historic buildings, and even a restored theater! The house is just steps from all that historic downtown has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The house is beautiful - it was built in 1916 and has been taken care of lovingly ever since. We have tried to think of our guests' needs as our own, as we use the house as a vacation home. We hope that you will find our house to be an inviting and relaxing second home.
