Book Your Adventure Getaway at our Container Cabin near New River Gorge
Escape to 'The Wanderer' vacation rental cabin - West Virginia's first ever shipping container cabin. Fully heated and air-conditioned, this unique and cozy cabin is the perfect getaway any time of year. With keyless entry, guests can easily access the property and enjoy the outside living space which includes a large patio for grilling out, a campfire area, and a relaxing hot tub. The cabin features a master bedroom with a full-size bed and stunning nature views, as well as a second bedroom with a twin bunk bed. The cozy bathroom includes all necessary amenities, such as towels, hand soap, shampoo, and conditioner. The kitchen comes equipped with essential cooking and eating supplies, a small refrigerator with a freezer, a cooktop, a coffee maker with a starter pack of local coffee, a toaster, and a microwave. 
The area:
Gorgeous winding countryside. This area is perfectly, centrally located to many area attractions. The Wanderer at McFadden Ridge is located just 10 minutes from Summersville Lake, 15 minutes from the New River Gorge, and Gauley River. Located near State Route 19, you can easily access nearby towns (Fayetteville, Summersville, Beckley), local attractions (guided tours of the New River Gorge Bridge from the catwalk 25’ beneath the Bridge, Zipline, Rappel, or traverse an aerial obstacle course.). Take the kids fishing or hiking and visit the nearby coal mines.
We are also located near several scenic overlooks; Babcock State Park, Hawks Nest State Park, Carnifex Ferry Battleground State Park, Meadow River, Monongahela National Forest, New River Gorge National Park, Summersville Lake, Gauley River, Powell Mountain and much more!
The importance of eco-friendly & social responsibility:
Mcfadden Ridge aims to provide travelers with sustainable accommodation options while also supporting the local economy and preserving the natural environment.
One of the key elements of our eco-friendly vacation rental initiatives is the use of sustainable materials and practices. This includes everything from using eco-friendly supplies to incorporating recycled materials into the construction and furnishing of properties. We up-cycle as many materials as possible, including the shipping container itself! Almost all the interior wood used inside the cabin is reclaimed materials and we use eco-friendly soaps and shampoos.
Social responsibility is another important aspect of McFadden Ridge. We often partner with local businesses to provide guests with recommendations for locally-owned restaurants and shops.
