This is an amazing home base for your New River Gorge adventure. The hosts were extremely communicative. Upon arrival there was scavenger hunt for the kids which allowed the adults to unpack and relax after the drive.The property is spacious with four bedrooms, 8 beds, and a game room. The kitchen is nice if you plan on eating in.The property is close to many attractions and rafting providers such as Ace. It is also a short drive to Fayetteville which has many cool shops and restaurants.The yard is fenced and fairly large. If you have an athletic dog, it will be able to hop the fence, so this isn't a place you'd want to leave your dog outside unsupervised, but there's more than enough space to exercise a dog without needing to take it on a long hike or walk. If I had one quibble, the grass was quite long when we arrived and was mowed toward the end of the trip. This meant we tracked grass into the house that we felt obligated to clean up. Again, this is a very small quibble.There was a nice fire pit in the backyard; we didn't have time to use it, but had it not rained our first night, we definitely would have.I would definitely recommend this place if you heading to the New River, especially if you plan on bringing your pet along for the trip.
