Lovey family get together.

We had a wonderful time at the Smoke hole house The weather was perfect for swimming and fishing. My grandkids really enjoyed the pool and had a fantastic time. They’ve already asked me when we were going back. My daughter, son-in-law and twin grandsons had a wonderful time fishing. The fish were abundant and they caught several. ( they catch and release.) The house itself is very clean and the property is well-maintained. Our family will definitely be going back.

Peace and quiet

Started out a little rough. Was never given address and website gave me the wrong road. Spent 3 hours looking for the house. Once there property was nice enough. Pool was very cold. My mother missed out on fire and fishing because she couldn't make it down the hills. Yard was beautiful. Loved the front porch.

Great family getaway!

We stayed for 6 days at the end of August. We have two boys (ages 9 and 13), and the reason we chose this vacation cabin was because of the pool and access to the creek. The cabin was extremely clean and well stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. All the beds and pillows seemed new and were very soft and comfortable. It was very nice having our own pool to come back to after hiking in the Monongahela National Forest . We also enjoyed creeking and fishing. The cabin has very easy access to the creek, and it is very shallow in places, so our boys could just play, or they tubed in the deeper parts. We took our telescope and looked at Saturn and Jupiter at night because you can see the sky so well from the deck. They have a very large fire pit and plenty of firewood, so we roasted marshmallows every night. The property is very large, and our boys had a great time just running around. We brought our trail cam, and it caught pictures of possums and deer that were active at night. The yard is large enough that you don't see any neighbors from the back yard, so it feels very secluded. We had a wonderful time!

Our stay at the smoke hole riverhouse was fantastic! The location is beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch, the pool, fire pit, and the great fishing behind the house. The decor is so cozy. My kids enjoyed the large yard. We will be back for many summers!

Why they chose this property

This property joins with my grandmothers property which I have now inherited. It was where I spent every Sunday as I was growing up. It is a place of solitude and comfort to me. Listening to the river as it flows by is so peaceful.

What makes this property unique

The 500 feet of direct access to the river is this properties most unique feature. The private pool is also a unique feature.
