Unforgettable getaway

The quiet and cozy Lost River Cabin was the perfect setting to rest, recuperate, and reconnect with my husband.

The cabin is outfitted with everything you could possibly need, and truly felt like a home away from home.

Fun adventures included hiking at Lost River State Park, a visit to Smokehole Taverns, and dinner at the Guest House where we were treated like a King and Queen.

We would recommend this cabin to anyone needing a break from it all. We can't wait to go back!

Ideal spot

5 of 5
Submitted: April 2, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We stayed a week as a family of five (two adults, three kids) and really enjoyed the place. Our main criteria when selecting a place to stay are (1) privacy from surrounding homes, and (2) a beautiful view. We've rented four VRBO places (Vermont, PA, VA, and this one) and this was tied for first among those, with the edge going to this one since it was closer to home and most affordable. The house is situated right atop a long ridge in the ridge-and-valley region of WV, with views both front and back. We had plenty of room for sleeping and activities.

Only downside worth mentioning is the very limited availability of food and drink. Referring to groceries here -- we didn't explore the restaurant scene, which the guestbook suggested was nice. About 25 minutes from a convenience store, and 45 minutes to a real grocery (we didn't go, basing this on the guestbook comments). We brought all our own food, so this didn't matter (except for the inevitable few things we forgot), but something to keep in mind if you rent this wonderful place.

Wonderful getaway in the mountains

Our stay at the Lost River Cabin was one of the nicest getaways we've ever had. The cabin was adorable and we loved the fireplace and the new stone wall. The cabin was very clean and well maintained and the owners had a nice stock of common cooking necessities like salt, pepper, flour, spices and condiments. That was a really convenient touch as the cabin is quite isolated - which we loved.

We stayed 3 nights and I only with is could have been longer. It was perfect and peaceful. Sitting out on the back porch and taking in the "silence" was extremely relaxing and the view was heavenly. I'd highly recommend the Lost River Cabin to anyone looking to get away from it all. You'd be hard pressed to find a nicer home.

David and Dave's cabin is the perfect place to get away from all the pressures of everyday life. Situated on a secluded mountain top, its views are amazing. The cabin's photo ads don't accurately show its loveliness. We enjoyed creating meals in the well supplied kitchen. The shower was fantastic!! They even have a great hammock for the deck. Life was GOOD in that hammock looking out over the mountains. There are state parks nearby with great hiking trails and horseback trail riding as well as a very nice pool. Thanks David and Dave for sharing your home.
