About this property

Mountaineer Cabin 3 - Hot Tub & Fireplace close to New River Gorge National Park

Single-story cabin 7 miles from New River Gorge Bridge in a secluded wooded area. This charming 2-bedroom cabin sleeps 6 with two queen bedrooms, a sleeper sofa, & full bathroom. Full kitchen with open living room. Amenities include private hot tub, grill (propane & charcoal), fireplace, and outdoor fire pit. Front deck has patio swing and rocking chairs. 10-minute drive to Adventures on the Gorge (AOTG), 12 minutes to downtown Fayetteville, & 25 minutes to ACE Adventure Lake.

Our cozy, quaint cabins include two bedrooms with a queen bed and sink with mirror in each room. Living room area has pullout couch and multiple chairs with a 50in smart TV. There is one full bathroom in the unit. We provide towels and linens. Shampoo, conditioner, & body wash is provided. The living room & kitchen area are open with a dining table perfect for groups of 4-6. The kitchen is fully equipped with gas stove, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, coffee maker, and basic cooking utensils. Basic cleaning supplies are provided under the kitchen sink. Each cabin has internet, air conditioning, & parking right beside unit.

Cell phone service in this area may be spotty. We are located in rural West Virginia which has its advantages & disadvantages. Internet is available but can be slow. We are currently working on getting starlink installed in this cabin as of 10/1/25.

Our property has 6 cabins with 2 tucked away completely and the remaining 4 in their own cul-de-sac (Mountaineer Cabins #1-#4). This cul-de-sac is wooded and secluded from the road, however, you will be within eye sight of some of our other cabins. We find them all to be fairly private.

We do not have a washer/dryer listed on our amenities, however, we do have a shared washroom with washer/dryer that guests may use when it is not in use by our cleaning staff. This room is used as a staging area by our cleaning staff to service all 6 of our cabins. During the day at least one of the washer/dryer units is typically in use by our cleaning staff, if not both. Both are generally open during the morning & evening. The wash room is located beside cabin 1, has two washers/dryers, and has laundry supplies that the guests may use free of charge. Please note no washers/dryers are in the cabins. The facilities are available as a curtesy to our guests.

Each cabin has its own private hot tub that is enclosed in a room attached to the cabin. We empty, clean, and refill our hot tubs after each stay. For this reason, there is a chance that the hot tub will not be up to full temperature immediately after checking in, especially if a guest checked out that morning. It generally only takes a couple hours at most but may be a little longer during the colder months. Please do not push hot tub buttons attempting to heat it quicker. Hot tubs have many locks (kid,eco etc…). You may lockout or shutdown the heating process by pushing the wrong button.

Cabin 3 has a real fireplace. All of the cabins have an outdoor fire pit area with a picnic table. Firewood is not provided but is sold at Walmart, Kroger, Lowe’s and the Exxon station by I19. Each cabin has both a propane grill & charcoal grill on the front porch. Propane is included but charcoal is not. Additional propane tanks can be found at our shared washroom area in a closet next to the entry door.

We do allow well-behaved, small-medium sized dogs (50 pounds or less) for a $50.00 additional cleaning fee. No cats. 2 dogs maximum. Guests are expected to dispose of their dogs waste before leaving. There is an outdoor trashcan near the walkway of the cabin. All pets must be listed on the reservation when booking and housebroken. Failure to include your pet in the reservation will result in fines. Guests will be responsible for any damages caused by their pets.

Our cabins are less than 10 minutes away from the newest National Park! The New River Gorge offers world class whitewater, rock climbing, mountain biking, ziplining, hiking, fishing, bird watching, and more! The gorge provides some of the most beautiful scenery on the east coast. Fayetteville West Virginia, voted top 10 coolest small towns in America, is a short 15 minute drive from the cabins and has lots of great local restaurant options. Our welcome guide includes food and activity recommendations during your stay.

Great getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here - the cabin was very clean and as it was described. Great fit for our family of 5! The cabin was perfect to come back to after our active days hiking, horseback riding and rafting. We lost power one night and Paul was very responsive - power ended up only being out for an hour or so. We would definitely stay again, thank you!

Great

Location is perfect for all the activities, and hiking. The cabin reminded us of camping. We were in cabin 3 and there are cabins around you but not way close. We got visited by Ranger (the dog from across the street), super sweet. Sat on the porch with us all weekend. The cabin was very clean and smelled good. We will stay again. Highly recommend

Great cabin accommodations in beautiful wooded area, close to adventure and dining.

Communication from property owner was great, everything was wonderful. We will be looking to stay there again, had a fantastic time! Front door keypad did not work, needs a new battery. But found a key under the doormat so it turned out fine.

Clean and Quiet

We used this as a two day stop on our travel south and enjoyed every second. This was our second time here and will plan to use again! Property was clean. Owners great to work with. All kitchen items at the ready. Clean and working hot tub. Close to nearby attractions and easy to get to while also feeling out of the way and quiet! Highly recommend!

Perfect Weekend

Absolutely loved the cabin we stayed in. Very clean, spacious, and the perfect spot for a short weekend trip. The only dislike was the wifi. I had almost no cell service and the wifi did not work well, which made it challenging to look up directions or hikes. Aside from this, everything was perfect!

Review

Overall good stay. Close to trails, parks and bridge. Cabin and hot tub nice. Cabin is a little dark but overall nice place with front porch, swing and chairs. Grill was good for hamburgers! Shower head needs to be changed so it doesn’t hit right in the face and not the rest of the body! Would stay again if return to the area.

We loved this cabin

This stay was for our 10th anniversary. The cabin was fantastic. We loved the hot tub and the privacy. We had an issue where VRBO didn’t send us the the cabin number and correct code. We ended up arriving at 2am due an emergency delay in our trip. We contacted VRBO and they contacted our host. We felt bad for waking him at 2am, but he was able to give us the information we needed. We stayed 3 nights. We hope to come back this summer to explore some of the activities that haven’t opened yet for the summer. We will definitely stay at these cabins again.

Anniversary Trip

The cabin was very nice and peaceful once we got in. Loved the porch swing, hot tub, fire pit and the fireplace. We did have trouble getting inside the cabin after arriving. Was giving an old access code and waited in our vehicle for 2 hours before receiving a call back with the correct access code. Apparently, all 3 contact numbers were out of cell service range. Was a rough and frustrating start to our anniversary but after finally getting inside we had a good time and enjoyed the peace and quiet.

Very nice, cozy cabin for 2 people. The size accomodated us well overall but the small beds did not make sleeping in the same bed the most comfortable.Cabin has everything needed and advertised. The fireplace, peaceful front porch and hot tub were all favorites of ours.Location can be a bit tricky the first day you arrive especially if at night because the cabins are located up on a hill behind a small body shop on street level. Overall, we had a great stay and would recommend this cabin.

This was an amazing stay, very, very, clean compliments to the housekeeper. Hot tub was very clean, we had a problem with heating the tub, management took care of it immediately great service. Loved the cabin, very private - my only complaint is that cabin was not remote enough, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very convenient area to hikes and stores.We love West Virginia and we will be back.
