Paddle House on the Rim of the New River Gorge

House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3.5 Baths, (Sleeps 10)

In September of 2020, the Paddle House, first and foremost, became our families "home away from home." When we aren't enjoying its peace and beauty, we would love for you to be our guests! Paddle House is a 3,000 square foot luxury vacation home within the Wild Rock development on the rim of The New River Gorge. Paddle House offers families and friends the highest-end lodging option available in the New River Gorge region. The vacation rental offers breathtaking views of the New River Gorge, including the famously photographed New River Gorge Bridge and the river far below. Guests will enjoy first-class accommodations in a four bedroom, four bath, vacation rental. The open design of the kitchen, dining room, and great room is a perfect space for reunions, corporate gatherings, or special events. The spacious dining room seats up to 14 guests. The two outdoor decks offer breathtaking views of the mountains across the New River Gorge, a relaxing hot tub or a cozy place to relax in the woods. The Paddle House is located within a 5-minute walk of Adventures on the Gorge, the premier adventure outfitter in West Virginia.

Perfect Getaway

This house is perfect for a family/friends getaway. The house is well stocked with anything you might need. Touches like nice towels, rockers by the fireplace, quiet area and plenty of seating (and a second dining table percent for puzzles/games) made our trip easy. The house was immaculate. I would definitely recommend!

5 Star, a comfortable home away from home with a breath taking view

The house is roomy, well designed and uses top of the line material. The location, on the rim of the New River Gorge, is secluded, perfect for an intimate gatherings. The Paddle House is just a 5 minute walk to one of the world class outfitters, Adventures On The Gorge for those looking for adventure activities, entertainment or a delicious dinner. Our group enjoyed sitting around the fire ring and watching the moon rise above the New River and the New River Gorge Bridge. This is the best choice for a high end get away in the Fayette County area.

Fantastic house and location but lacking in upkeep.

Three families traveled to the Paddle House go enjoy a holiday reunion. While the house was large, with a well stocked kitchen and great views, we did experience a few maintenance and housekeeping issues. The house was dusty and looked as if it hadn’t been vacuumed or swept in awhile. There were no extra garbage bags or toilet paper and we had to call the main office twice in order to receive additional items. The biggest issue however was the lack of hot water in the downstairs bathroom. There was none! We called the main office again and they said they would send someone from maintenance to look at the hot water heater. If someone was sent, we were never told, and the issue was never fixed. Overall, for the amount of money we spent, I expected at least a clean house with basic supplies and hot water. We would consider staying there again if these issues were addressed because it really is a beautiful home in a great area of West Virginia.

Outstanding Attention to Detail

We operated at short term vacation rental for years and have stayed at numerous such places. The owners of the Paddle House have thought of everything a guest could possibly want and have done so in such an upscale manner. We thoroughly recommend staying here!!!

Fantastic!

We were looking for a place to have a family reunion and this was the perfect place. There are plenty of activities - rafting, zip-lining, hiking - all within five minutes of the house. Since restaurants were not open - we wanted a place with a great kitchen. The Paddle House did not disappoint. Also, communication with the owner was great. He gave us pointers on hikes to take and activities to go on. We were able to contact him easily when we had a small issue with the bathroom - and it was resolved immediately. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

amazing stay and hope to return

I had never rented a cabin or house and this was my first experience. It was a piece of cake and I at moments thought that I was doing something wrong because it was so simple but it worked out amazing. The house is awesome and the views are magnificent. I was blown away by the house when I first walked in. The pictures honestly do not do it justice. The rooms are big and cozy, the living room is ample for any get together, the sound system around the house was clear and quite reaching. The hot tub really allowed us to relax. The house is far enough to feel like you are actually out in the wilderness but close enough to any comforts to not be worried of anything being out of your reach from restaurants to stores. We rented this cabin to go skiing in Winterplace and although it is about an hours drive away, we would do it and plan on coming back next winter. I would easily recommend this property to anyone who wants to get away for a bit. Hopefully I will be back next year!

Nothing Better

This house is simply amazing. There is nothing that even compares in the area. You are surrounded by almost a mile of wilderness in every direction and the property is lined with well kept trails to hike/bike on. The fire pit overlooking the gorge is a gem and any night outdoors I could think of few other places I'd want to be. No expense was overlooked on the interior of the house with top-end material in every room. Whether it is the ceiling-enclosed bose speakers (indoor & outdoor), multiple-head showers, or beautifully decorated rooms, this house will not disappoint. You are only a 3 minute drive to the bridge from leaving the driveway. I can't wait to come back again.

Close To Perfection On The Gorge

From the moment we walked into the Paddle House we were captivated by the beauty of the house, as well as the surrounding woods and trails. The house surpassed our expectations. Throughout the weekend people commented on the "perfectness" of this house for our group. The kitchen worked well with the challenge of many hands wanting to "stir the pot". There was more than enough room to accommodate "too many cooks in the kitchen". Bedrooms were lovely and nicely placed for privacy. The openness, but not too large, of the living area provided a warm and cozy place to gather. We also loved walking out of the door and onto a variety of well managed trails. Best surprise....... well I guess you will just have to stay at the Paddle House and discover it for yourself.
