About this property
River Access w/Hot Tub, Grill, WiFi, & Fire Pit!
Summary:
River Birch is a newly-renovated cabin nestled in the woods, with all the modern conveniences of home. Perfect for your WV getaway!
The highlights:
- Unwind in the outdoor hot tub!
- Splash around or have a picnic by the private stream (right behind the cabin!)
- Hang out & roast s’mores around the fire pit
- Stream movies or take video calls on the high-speed fiber Internet
- Drive 10 mins to downtown Lost River for artisanal shops, or 20 mins for great hiking
Enjoy!
The Space:
River Birch Cabin is a newly-renovated cabin that tastefully blends country living with modern touches. We’re perfect for couples, families, or small groups of friends! Beyond the cabin itself, the Lost River area is great for so many reasons -- and the cabin is just a short drive to everything. Downtown Lost River has several cute, artisanal shops -- while the greater area has fantastic hiking trails!
The cabin includes:
- Outdoor hot tub perfect for relaxing
- 2 bedrooms: one with a queen bed, and the other with a twin bunk – plus a pull-out couch in the living room (don’t worry, it’s comfortable!)
- Fully-stocked kitchen with dishwasher, stove/oven, and microwave
- Central AC and heat to keep you comfortable
- Wood-burning stove to keep you cozy in the winter
- A spacious covered front porch, perfect for relaxing on a warm day
- Fast, reliable fiber Internet/WiFi – easily fast enough to stream movies, hold video calls, and WFH
- Washer and dryer
- Outdoor fire pit right along the stream, with a picnic table and seating for the whole gang
- An outdoor yard game treasure box full of activities for kids and adults: corn hole, volleyball, soccer and kick balls, horseshoes, and many more!
We often take our three little kids and dog to the cabin with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly. Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).

About the host
Hosted by Tony Cappaert

I live in DC with my wife and three young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.
Why they chose this property
We spent years searching for the perfect getaway, and wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We fell in love with the area – and River Birch Cabin in particular. We love how cute and cozy our cabin is, and all the fun outdoor activities we can enjoy year-round. :)
