About this property

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!

Guests have access to a front porch and back porch/patio, living room, eat-in kitchen with table for four, bonus room with loveseat and laundry overlooking the river, three bedrooms, and a bathroom. A small desk and external monitor with an HDMI cord are available for guests to use carefully in the third bedroom. The living room has one couch suitable for sleeping: extra bedding is provided in the closet of the river view bedroom. There is a basement that will remain locked.

Guest access:
Off street parking. There are a few stairs to each entrance.

Other things to note:
Check-in instructions and house details will be sent on the morning of your arrival.

Absolutely no smoking is allowed inside the house. There is a $300 fine for smoking inside.

The house has a whole house generator in case of power outages (Generac). Guests should know that this is rural WV, so there are things like barking hound dogs and ATVs that can cause some noise, but none of these come onto the property.

Great Place
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!

About the host

Hosted by Mike

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Mike! I have a few short-term rental properties, each of which I love dearly and spend time in myself. I think of Central Virginia and the New River Gorge region of West Virginia as my two homes and hope you will enjoy them as much as I do.

I'm passionate about rock climbing, love animals, and have degrees in physics, philosophy, engineering, and writing.

Why they chose this property

You are directly on a lovely flat-water section of the Gauley River, downstream of Summersville Lake. It's easy to put a small boat or paddle board in for hours of serene paddling. The calm of the small West Virginia community offers a wonderful respite, and my home is clean, spacious, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. Travel to Hawk's Nest or the New River Gorge for adventure and sightseeing, or Fayetteville for eclectic shops and wonderful food.

What makes this property unique
