About this property

The VIEW! Private Cabin By New River Gorge Park

Super Private 4 bed home sleeps 8 with a panoramic (amazing) view of the Appalachian Mountains. Only 19 miles from New River Gorge Park. Access to entire 60 acre property and trails and fire pits. Located only minutes off Interstate 77 near Ghent. Great cell phone reception. Stars out here are VERY bright. Wi-Fi, White linens/towels, smoker+grill, & washer/dryer. This secluded home is an experience in itself. The pictures never due the view justice. The Mushroom Trail now open - free to guests. Wal-Mart does deliver here

Guests will access the home via a completely private check-in. The door code and map link will come early on the day of arrival via your messages.

Mushroom Trail 🍄 is now open and free to all guests, fire pit location rental included with each cabin booking.

The two best things this mountain has to offer is the stars on a clear night and the sun rises up behind the view and is one of the most beautiful things you'll see all year. When the sun rises it allows you to see just a little further than during the day.

Mushroom Trail 🍄 is now open and free to all guests. It features over 60 different giant mushrooms, giant flowers, and a large natural sandbox to give your little ones something to do. Giant connect 4, & corn hole boards are also on site and free to use.

Please no business use or parties without owner written consent.

We keep light pollution to a minimum for optimal Stargazing.

Privacy: Each window features a two layer roman shade that can totally block off view from outside and still allow you to see the view from master bed via the two top windows that are well above anyones view.

A trip for a local wedding

We were all so thrilled with this beautiful place with these gorgeous views. Although we were here for a wedding, several of us stayed behind to work and linger with coffee in front the windows to see the gorgeous views! It could not have been better and we hated to leave! Was so close to the Glade Creek Farm wedding venue!!!

Wonderful mountaintop retreat with amazing views!

We loved our stay at this special property. Beautiful views from the wrap around porch and picture windows in the living room. Cabin was new and well appointed. Comfy beds and bedding. Nice soft towels. We had high winds and snow and we were snug all night long. Steep ladder-type stairs up to the loft if you have mobility issues. Our dog couldn’t figure out how to go back down so we carried her. Nice views from the upstairs loft king bed as well.

Almost Heaven

This was almost heaven in West Virginia. We booked this cabin at the top of the mountain because it’s dog friendly and is located less than 10 miles from Winterplace Resort. We left the Vrbo feeling like it was our little spot and have already talked about coming back in the future. The cabin was clean, spacious and well stocked with essentials. The communication and check in process was easy. We were appreciative of the effort put in by the hosts to make This place feel like home for our little family. It was the perfect spot for our winter wonderland getaway. 5/5, would absolutely recommend.

Short but worth it!

We only stayed two nights but it was really great and we'd definitely come back and stay longer. The views are absolutely amazing from inside the cabin and from the deck. The cabin is new and furnished and decorated really nicely. The location is close proximity to the parks and there are some nice restaurants in the area.

Very clean, simple and well decorated cabin with one of the best views I have seen. Pictures don't do it justice. Stairs are very narrow, but nice appliances and well kept homey cabin. Excellent experience overall if you want a peaceful getaway.

Amazing Mountain Top View

Love this place! Love the Mountain View from the deck! I sat there for hours enjoying the sounds of nature and the wonderful beauty of all the colors of the trees. And to sit under the stars and feel the breeze from the mountain tops was breathtaking! We love being able to sit inside the cabin and watch the sunrise too! We just loved it all! The beauty of the outside and the coziness of the inside! It was perfect for us!

Wow. This is the best spot in WV

We are completely blown away by the beautiful cabin and views. Everything was top-of-the-line. The couches are so comfortable we napped on them. We visited new river gorge bridge and national park then came back to cabin for quiet relaxing peaceful spot with million dollar views! All the national park spots are about 30 minutes away. Highly recommend this cabin rental. Well worth it!! Not many places to eat nearby but we had an amazing kitchen to cook!!! Check out my tik tok with photos @tammerad

Breathtaking Mountaintop Retreat

I recently stayed at Cool Ridge Mountaintop Retreat and had an incredible experience. The cabin itself was very new and incredibly clean - it was definitely one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed. The highlight of the stay, though, was the stunning mountaintop view. You could see for miles and miles, and it was truly breathtaking. The fireplace provided plenty of warmth during our stay, and it was great to relax by it after a long day of skiing. Plus, the fact that the cabin was just a 15-minute drive to Winterplace made it a great location for our trip. Overall, I highly recommend Cool Ridge Mountaintop Retreat for anyone looking for a beautiful and comfortable mountain getaway. It truly exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to return!

Breath-taking views

To begin, the reservation and check-in processes were easy and straight-forward. The owner was helpful, quick to reply, and was exactly as a property owner/manager should be. Words cannot describe the feeling that overcomes you when you pull up to the property. The views are absolutely breath-taking. The cabin was very clean, and well presented. And a perfect location to venture out on the sxs and take in West Virginia's scenery. This is a location that myself and my wife will definitely revisit. Well done to Mountaintop Retreat for such a perfect location to spend our anniversary. And special thanks to Anthony for making us feel right at home. Highly recommended!
