Riverfront Cottage on the Crystal Clear Gauley River

Relax next to the crystal clear waters of the Gauley at this incredibly peaceful cottage. Push a boat or paddle board in the water or read a book in a hammock. Visit the nearby New River Gorge or Hawks Nest parks. Bring your laptop and do some work with the consistent wifi. Drive your sports car or motorcycle on the fabled “Talon” road nearby. The adjacent Cranberry Corridor also provides sightseeing (https://wvtourism.com/cranberry-corridor/). The full kitchen, large bedrooms, family room, and bonus room with washer and dryer ensure that you’ll feel at home while getting away!

Was a nice clean place to sleep while in the area for work. My employees enjoyed fishing in the off time. Power was out when we got there due to storms but was resolved quickly with communication even at 9pm. Would go again.

Lovely little home! Beds were comfortable and plenty of hot water. (Perfect after miles of hiking in the snow). Back yard is very nice with a great view of the river.

My family and I booked this stay to get together and it looked like a great spot for kids. We were not disappointed!!! We couldn’t keep the kids out of the water. The paddle words and fishing were so fun. The house was clean and spacious!

Comfy space for exploring New River Gorge
Spent a lovely 5 days exploring Lake Summersville, the Gauley, and the New. House had the basics for kitchen, bathroom and super soft sheets! Direct and easy access to the Gauley at a great spot for swimming and kayak/paddleboard. Neighborhood is a dead end so not a lot of traffic, while traffic noise from across the river was only occasional and not disruptive. Mike was a responsive host for questions and suggestions. Recommend!

Great area to stay!
Loved this property. It's quaint, right on the water, and I fell in love with the town. Neighbors are so friendly and you really experience a taste of rural WV. Would be beautiful in any season. The place is kept clean and tidy, and the owner is super responsive. We booked multiple trips in a row because we liked the place so much! The internet is amazing--runs full speed, which was an issue at other places we stayed at. We hope to book again in the future, and recommend it to our families and friends if they need to stay in the area.
