House on the River
We enjoyed our stay. The house was about a half-hour drive from the main visitor center in New River Gorge National Park. Two very nice state parks were also within a relatively short driving distance. We used the full-size kitchen for breakfast and dinner. It was nice having a dishwasher. The kayaks and fire pit were a lot of fun.

Great place to stay on the river
We had a great time here. Place was clean and kitchen was well stocked! Bedrooms are large. Second bedroom had 2 queen beds. We definitely used the kayaks and sups! River was quiet. Centrally located to the Fayetteville, new river gorge and summerville lake. We will definitely think about staying here again.

Great Getaway
We had a great time at the Riverfront Cottage! We really enjoyed Hawks Nest, New River Gorge and Cathedral Falls which are within a very reasonable driving distance. The Cottage was clean and the kitchen had all the essentials we needed to prepare meals. Having access to kayaks and SUP boards was a huge bonus for us.
The location was quiet and everyone that we spoke with was very kind & helpful.

Clean, rustic, and fun
Nicely situated to drive to the best locations of the Gauley Basin. Quality home to stay in with enough features to be an oasis from a busy day out in Mother Nature without being so elaborate that you spend a fortune. Also, had a beautiful view of the river and Gauley valley

Quaint and Clean
Property was located on the north end of the Gorge Park. Convenient to the New River Bridge, Gauley River, and Fayetteville. Also located on wide, slow section of the river - safe for kayaking and general boating for families.

Labor Day Weekend getaway
House was very clean. Bedrooms & bathrooms were good sizes. Thanks for the extra paper towels/toilet paper/kitchen supplies. Could hear road traffic in morning but back yard/river were perfect! Excellent location. Close to Hawks Nest State Park, New River Gorge Bridge. Loved having the SUPs and kayaks to use. So fun to explore the river right outside our door.

Time of our lives….
From the moment we made our reservation to after we checked out and realized we had lost something, ALL our needs were met. Cynthia went above and beyond for us. Our cottage was adorable, and the view from the deck was amazing. Our cottage was furnished so cute and was well appointed with anything we could
imagine needing. It even had kayaks amd SUPs!!! We will definitely be back!!!
