This cabin on the Greenbrier River is a delightful place to relax, fish and sightsee. It is newer and the owner has taken pride in decorating and caring for it. The views of the river from the front deck are spectacular. A wonderful find for us and we plan to head back when we vacation in the beautiful Marlinton area!

I’m so glad that you enjoyed your stay and that it was a five star experience. And although you came up here to ski nobody expected a winter snow storm. Hope the host you again in the future.

We had such a wonderful stay at this cabin! The location was a huge highligh-being so close to the Greenbrier River Bike trail made it incredibly easy to hop on for riding. It was the perfect mix of convenience and peaceful surroundings.The cabin itself is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. Everything we needed was right there, and it felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. We especially appreciated how quiet and relaxing the setting was. The large porch overlooking the river is awesome for unwinding after a day outdoors.The host was easy to communicate with and made the whole experience smooth from start to finish. If you’re looking for a cozy place with easy access to the trail and a relaxing atmosphere, this is a great choice. We would absolutely stay here again! We actually loved it so much that we extended our original stay!
