Comfortable and inviting home

This was a perfect place for three high school friends to stay for a mini-reunion. The beds were comfortable and the house was well stocked. I can’t imagine anything you need that wasn’t there. And so many nice touches with coffee, snacks, decor… Lots of care is obviously put into making this an inviting place to stay from the decor to the comfortable porch, deck, and fire pit overlooking the mountains and the Kanawha River.

Great home base for NRG NP

Our family of 4 had a great stay at the Rose River Cottage! It served as an excellent home base for adventures in the area. We hiked at NRG NP, white water rafted (West Virginia Adventures) and Cliff jumped at Summersville Lake (pirates cove for the rocks). Beautiful mornings and sunsets on the river. House is well stocked, and hosts were unbelievably quick with responses.

Quaint Peaceful Place

My husband and I stayed fall of 2023. We were too early for fall foliage, but the landscape was still beautiful. We enjoyed relaxing evenings on the deck - hiking, near by shops, beautiful drives, national park proximity - just an overall wonderful experience. Would highly recommend

Little things make all the difference

The property owners attention to small details like local recommendations, snacks, and a fully stocked coffee bar truly make this property a great place to visit. The location sets it a part from others in the area with the connivence of being a short drive from all attractions. Can’t wait to stay again!

Beautiful views and cozy place

This property was a great place to stay while visiting the Gorge in WV. The owner was very responsive. We had storms come through and knock the power out for the entire town and the owner communicated very timely, which helped reduce any disruptions to our trip. The property was well equipped with everything we needed: nice porch over looking the river and mountains, dock for fishing, cozy covered porch, fire pit, grills, washing machine, four beds, all kitchen supplies, and a record player that my kids thought was cool. I would definitely recommend this property for anyone exploring this area. There was a 30 minute curvy drive to get to the touristy area.

Wonderful and cozy

We had a great stay at the Rose River Rental. It is a wonderful cozy home with amazing views. The accommodations are top notch with lots of thought and extras added to make your trip extra memorable. The s’mores and record player were the highlights of our kids stay. The town is a tiny old miners town and the people were very friendly when we went for a walk.

About the host

Hosted by Beth Fish

Host profile image
I am a local small business owner who loves to serve my community and travel. I've enjoyed staying at other short term rentals so much that I decided to host one myself when the opportunity presented itself. I am approaching the end of my first year of hosting and I now know that this is definitely my passion. I believe you will feel welcome and at home in our little piece of heaven, on the Kanawha River, here in southern WV!

Why they chose this property

Rose River Cottage was my late mother's primary residence. She loved to sit on the porch and admire the beautiful river and majestic mountains. I couldn't bare to sell it after she passed in 2020, so I am sharing it with friends like you! We keep a weekend open every month to gather as a family and enjoy the space. I think you will feel the sense of family when you visit. We hope to host you soon!

What makes this property unique

We are uniquely situated right between the state's capitol and the country's newest National Park. Not only that, but we are directly on the Kanawha River. The house is in a tight knit, sleepy residential area, but it faces the river so you feel more secluded than you actually are.
