Perfect Cabin in the woods

This was such a great (and large!) Cabin with perfect access to Canaan Valley skiing. Loved it! All the decor and feel is just what we wanted for a relaxing winter weekend.

Perfect Cabin

This was the best cabin! Even better than shown online. It was very secluded and clean. Great location and great hosts. We had a slight issue checking in, but the hosts made sure to accommodate and we couldn’t have been happier. We will definitely be coming back and specifically for this cabin.

Wonderful

The weather was terrible and it was still fun. We spent our time in the hot tub and enjoyed the beautiful cabin. The river was right outside- and rolling because of the rain and it was so peaceful. We hope to be back in the fall with our whole family. Great stay. Thank you to the amazing hosts.

Great weekend

Nice property. Clean, beautiful location and easy check-in. Be prepared to be totally “off the grid” though as you get zero cell and pretty poor wi fi. It was a actually refreshing in a way but just a warning to those who may need/want it.

Absolutely beautiful!

The location is absolutely spectacular. You can't ask for a more beautiful place to visit for some peace and quiet. The cabin was a great size for us. The beds are definitely firm so be prepared for that. There's definitely some much needed tlc that should be addressed but I hope that this place will be around for us to visit again. Even with the little things that need to be done I'd stay here again without question.

Wonderful cabin escape

The Big Poplar cabin was surrounded by mountain laurel thicket and had a great view of the river! The inside was clean and the layout was very comfortable for the 4 of us. With the National Forest right across the river there were miles of hiking trails and only minutes from Elkins for supplies and good food (BBQ at Smoke on the Water was amazing). Definitely on our return visit list! Roxye was a breeze to work with. Thanks

Very quaint and true log cabin right on riverside

We very much enjoyed our ski-planned President's Day weekend get-away despite the 60=degree weather and lack of skiing. Hiking was great, hot tub was great, accommodations were very comfortable. Townspeople and fisherman were all very friendly. My only suggestion would be some board games or books for house, and a few more kitchen supplies. Other than that, we had a very nice time. Will be back.

Seclusion & Serenity

Roxy ensured our last-minute stay was perfect. The cabin The lake and the exquisite sounds of nature were super relaxing. It's perfect for those looking to take a break from everything. Cell service was shotty...maybe because I have Verizon. IDK. But I didn't need the phone for anything but checking in. So do your paperwork ahead of time. We will be back!!!

Nice base of operations for a quiet getaway!

Nice well kept cabin 15 feet from river! 3 Star rating. Management is attentive, even during the off season time that we were there. Very soothing place to hang out. Very nice deck facing the river. Hot tub is old and a bit noisy but enjoyable. Pump runs all the time so it is bothersome durning the evening. Beds were much better than usual and allowed a great nights sleep after the days activities. Kitchen could use updated appliances. No internet and very spotty cell phone ATT coverage. Water pressure is quite low but serviceable, and the hot water has that West Virginia sulfur smell. Bring drinking water and all is ok.

Holiday retreat

Over all we had fun but few things will cause us to never return. All 3 beds were absolutely terrible and plan to sleep on floor. Hot tub is extremely old and only had 2 jets. It was clean tho. Key that was given did not work. WiFi given did not work. Bank to get into river access was very scetchy and dangerous for my parents. Logs had years of dust and mildew built up on them. There is no where for a small camp fire. There were no towels but was given some after asking. Over all we had fun but the bad beds did me in.

Beautiful spot

This is a private cabin that gives you your own section of Shavers Fork of the Cheat River. Very clean and well set up upon arrival. Nice deck out back facing the stream. Hot tub was at a good temperature for us. We would come back. Good central location to explore Monongahela Park.

Second time around...

Our Cheat River stay this second time, was exceptional.. They did some changes (an overhang over the hot tub) that we thought was going to be bad (You want to see the sky there) But turned out awesome! We were able to be in the hot tub with snow and sleet coming down AND able to watch baseball at the same time. The beds were comfortable, pots and pans and everything we needed for a great stay. Also, the mgmt was very responsive when we needed them. We will for sure be back!! Thank you!!

Great Place near the river

The cabin was semi-remote, and quite on the river. The setting is beautiful and tranquil. However, you need to bring paper towels, hot pads, and basic cooking supplies (i.e. oil, salt and pepper, herbs and spices, hot pads). That being said, there is a Walmart, and Kroger down the road in Elkins. I cannot wait to return!

Fantastic Holiday Weekend

We had the most wonderful Thanksgiving week on the Cheat River. The cabin had three spacious bedrooms, the kitchen accommodations was well-stocked with accessories, and the living area was spacious and warm. The scenic views were stunning, and the hot tub was well-maintained and comfortable. Absoultuely one of the best holidays we've had!

There were a few minor issues that I addressed with the property manager. The cabin was cute and the hot tub nice. Enjoyed being in the woods.

quiet and easy

If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy quiet away from folks, this is the spot. The views on the drive to get there and the views from the back of the cabin were simply spectacular. The wireless connection wasnt the best, but that was ok since I really didnt NEED the internet, but if you do, this isnt the spot for you. Really perfect, wishing we had built in an extra day.
