The place was spotless and well maintained clearly a lot of care went into making sure guests feel at home. The host thought of everything you could possibly need, which made the stay even more relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, just what we were looking for.My family really enjoyed the time there, especially the kids. Their favorite part was getting wet and splashing around in the river. The water was knee-deep in some spots not quite deep enough for fishing, but it was perfect for them to cool off from the summer heat. We’ll definitely be back!Activity wise, the kids had a blast playing board games, we took a short trip to Blackwater Falls just 30 minutes away, and wrapped up our evenings enjoying the fire pit by the river. We’ll definitely be back! ##### Abdul h.

This was one of the cleanest homes we’ve ever stayed in. It was well stocked with everything needed, there were lights installed along the stairway for nighttime trips to the bathroom, the porch was nice for my wife to sit on and read while listening to the river rushing past. Everyone had such a nice time and the host was very friendly, welcoming, and responsive. He also left recommendations for us and one was a pizza joint the kids were crazy about nearby.

When I say this place had anything and everything you’d need on a trip I mean it. I have never stayed at a place that was so fully stocked with every little item you could have needed or forgotten to pack. I rated the cleanliness at a 4 only because of the hellgrammite bugs coming in and they gave me the creeps. We also had 4 adults and one child so it would have been nice to have a half bath upstairs for toileting purposes but other than that we loved it! ##### Elvis Z.

My husband and I spent four nights at this lovely cabin while we explored Parsons, Davis, and Thomas. The owners have stocked it with everything you need to feel at home. (Seriously, check the kitchen cabinets and bedroom closet before you head out to the store for that thing you forgot. 😉) Very comfortable. The pics of the porch facing the stream are what sold me, and I was not disappointed! Perfect spot to read and listen to the water. ❤️ Highly recommended! ##### Elizabeth R.

My 9 year old son and I had rented this home for a father and son adventure trip. Our host was so accommodating and helpful. The home was in amazing condition and had all modern, smart home amenities. The home was exceptionally clean and there was a washer/dryer, toiletries, fire pit and board games, which was a great activity with my son. The home was on a beautiful river which we were able to enjoy and do some star watching. The cabin was close to surrounding areas of interest and the town was pure Americana. We had an absolutely wonderful time and the home was a huge part of that! ##### Justin G. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JANET W.

It had everything and more that we needed for our short weekend to attend a reunion. The two grandchildren loved the beautiful river. I will definitely be back next year for our yearly reunion. The only suggestion I would have would be to build some sort of steps with the natural rock to the river. The steep bank gave my 60 plus knees a workout. ##### JANET W. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### angie t., Barboursville, wv Jan 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Dark I named my review “dark” because the region lost electric for five hours. Warren was nice to bring us candles, but forgot matches, etc so thankfully the only restaurant/business in town with a generac had a waitress who gave us her lighter!! We loved the cabin. But it was a cold january so we didnt get to sit on the porch and listen to the roaring river out front. Would stay again. But will be more prepared with our own lighter, no matter where we stay ##### angie t. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelly P. Aug 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This cabin will not disappoint We thoroughly enjoyed Parsons Riverside Retreat. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed and more. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching/listening to the sounds of the river. My husband did a bit of fishing and caught 7 small bass during our stay. No keepers though he did enjoy it. We shopped at the local Shop & Save Express for a few groceries for our stay. We grilled on the charcoal grill but enjoyed a breakfast and a dinner at B & J’s Family Diner. The food was fantastic both times. It’s an easy walk and we recommend this to any other visitors. A day spent at Blackwater Falls State Park was the highlight of our trip. We ventured down the 214 steps to see the Falls, ate a picnic lunch at Pendleton Lake and started the trek to Lindy Point. However, we got rained out and never made it to the overlook. We drove by the small waterfall between Parsons and Hambleton and saw the swinging bridge in Hendricks. Both are very short drives from the cabin. We had lunch in Elkins at the Steer Steakhouse, visited the Elkins Depot Visitors Center and shopped a bit at the Delmonte Market. It’s a cute gift shop. Fun fact, Kingsford Charcoal is manufactured here as well as it is the home of the States Largest Known Butternut Tree. This was a great trip for scenic views and enjoying the river. We loved the cabin. Thanks to our hosts. We are glad we found Parsons Riverside Retreat. ##### Shelly P.
