The cabin is cozy and comfy! The perfect retreat for city folks like us. We enjoyed the area immensely. Coming back to the hot tub, game room, and daily deer viewing was just the relaxation we needed after a day of adventures. We absolutely loved having our dogs with us! We look forward to future stays at this property.

The place is absolutely gorgeous, it is close to many things to do and I cannot recommend this place enough to anyone who needs a place to stay. The deer and turkeys visited everyday, and birds were plentiful. Our dog enjoyed the walk around.

The Cardinal Cottage is as adorable and serene as the photos and description claim. The location is so convenient to all the sites yet secluded and abundant with wildlife. We saw many deer and turkeys during our time there. Our host Shelby was most gracious and accommodating with our stay. We will definitely stay here again when visiting New River Gorge.
