A Home for the Holidays -- New River Gorge National Park

The holiday season is here. That makes it a great time to enjoy friends, family, and the great outdoors.

From the property, guests can hike about 800 yards and see the rim of the gorge at Short Creek. Where they can climb or continue hiking on various trails (https://www.mountainproject.com/area/114210837/short-creek-right). Beauty Mountain Trail is about 1/2 mile away. Endless Wall Trail and trails at Nuttall and Fern Creek are within a mile too (https://www.alltrails.com/explore/us/west-virginia/edmond? b_tl_lat=38.07608791352027&b_tl_lng=-81.10379313496004&b_br_lat=38.032201511404395&b_br_lng=-81.01188121986912&ar[]=10184108). Guests actually drive past them to get to the home.

If you are looking for a private, peaceful area to get away from it all, Beauty Mountain Hideaway is the idyllic place for you. With its expansive covered porches and hot tub, you can sit, relax, enjoy the sounds of nature and let your cares melt away. Situated on 8.75 acres, guests can explore the land, Short Creek, and its wildlife (no hunting please). Short Creek actually runs through the property and has its own private, natural grotto hidden in the foliage just below the back porch. Better than a hot tub on those steamy summer nights. The pathway from the back of the home leads you down there. However, it is very new and we are still working the ground so we ask that you do not burn down there or leave trash due to wildlife. We also ask that you stay on the gravel pathway and keep ahold of the handrail as the gravel will roll out from under your foot.

For those with an even more adventurous appetite, Adventures on the Gorge (adventuresonthegorge.com) is several miles away, where guests can enjoy guided tours, aerials, mountain biking, horseback riding, paint ball (you name it, they probably provide it) all for a nominal fee. Guests can enjoy the restaurants and shopping there too.

If shopping is more your style, head across the New River Gorge Bridge towards downtown Fayetteville, where quaint shops and restaurants are available.

We even have you covered during bad weather as the home is equipped with a generator that automatically kicks in when the power goes out. Although it is an automatic generator, it will not support the entire home. Guests will need to pick what systems are important to them.
