4/10 Poor

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
In spite of the host's claims to the contrary, I simply did not receive check-in information (checked all my inbox, spam, junk folders multiple times) and arrived at location without code for key box. We were surprised (and alarmed) to find the back door was unlocked and we were able to get in. The interior is fine. Cute cabin feel and it was very tidy. No issues there. Mattress on bottom bunk okay, but all bedding is super cheap feeling (pillows, sheets, comforters) with "made in China" tags. Lots of decor is too. Ironic for a US themed property. Thought we'd enjoy a glass of wine on the porch but found it so just plain filthy that we couldn't-unless we cleaned it first-so that aspect of the cabin experience was completely lost to us. I live in the woods. I understand upkeep in a rural setting. But this porch had not been cleaned for a loooong time. Spider webs, wasps nests, bird nests with droppings, thick coat of pollen, and green mildew on floorboards and picnic table. Gross. When we got back to an area with phone service, I called host who insisted he had sent info. Okay. Maybe?? But I don't have it. No apology, no "I'm sorry about that" whoever was responsible. Curt and rude. When we returned, I sent an email detailing all this I'm posting and his response was "If you don't like our property, don't book it again." Like that would be an option?? Poorly managed property. Nice military based mission with extremely poor execution.

Cozy cabin next to picturesque valley stream

had a wonderful stay in this recently built country log cabin. about 10 minutes from Parsons, WV. The cabin is one of 4 that are spaced perhaps 100 feet from each other in an open field. One one side is a wide stream that provides pleasant background noise. on the other is a country road with only moderate traffic that i seldom noticed. Behind the road is a steep rocky wooded hill with at least one pretty waterfall. Behind the stream are fields, woods, and hills. the cabin was well organized with all key appliances (heat, hot water, stove, and fridge) appearing new and working well. plenty of bedding and towels and the system to check in and out was easy. hoping to visit again.

Anchors Aweigh AKA Cabin #4

The check-in was almost a disaster, our code was wrong, and since there is no cell service, I could not call anyone, as the WiFi code was on the table, which would have enabled WiFi calling. Thankfully, the IT man was outside at the Army cabin, He came over to help, but had to immediately escalate to the next higher step, that gentleman arrived, his code for the lock box did not work either, luckily, he had several older codes, and one of those did work, VIOLA, were in. The place is very peaceful, quiet, just what we wanted. However, I would recommend a process for long staying guests, as we had to go to town and wash our linens, bath & kitchen towels. A clock would also be a nice touch. A heads up on the bunk beds would have been nice, as they are not very old folk friendly, and as a Navy Vet, I am very familiar with bunks, these are concussion friendly :)

Me and my wife was very happy on how nice the cabin was with beautiful scenery surrounding the cabin. We stayed in December and would definitely like to try again with warmer weather and see the many trails and sites to see.

Anchors Away cabin in Parsons, WV

It was a relaxing and wonderful place to stay. The decorations were beautiful. The place was clean. I loved the hard wood. Not too far from the places we visited. I liked the no service idea but still had a way to connect if we needed to.

Away from home...

The property is situated in a nice location since only 4 rentals are around you with a river stream in the back of the property. The only thing that was a little annoying where cars passing by or speeding from the road across at highway speed. But overall it will grow on you after staying for a while. However I will definitely stay again.

Cutest little cabin! Great for family

This was such a cute little place, the pictures don’t do it justice. We stayed during the winter and had so much fun. The river is right behind the cabin. My kids (ages 4 & 7) loved trying to fish, throwing rocks, and walking on ice. We drove to Black water falls park 2x. It’s about a 40 minute drive. Not a lot of shops or stores in the area so make sure to pack lots of food. We got wood fire pizza to go after sledding at Blackwater. Looking forward to visiting again sometime in the summer!
