Photos and Description of the Cowen vacation cabin rental
1 Bedroom with Queen, which is on the Loft; 1 Full Bath, The Cabin Sleeps 4.

For those who want to rent our cabin for 6 or 7 days, we are offering a special 25% discount off the nightly rate, provided the reservation is made before March 31, 2013! The nightly rate for a seven night stay would be reduced to $111.75 per night, which is $782.25, plus housekeeping fee and tax.

We are looking forward to our spring get-away and the early trout fishing. It is a new year and we are making plans. We look forward to a little hiking about. DNR will start stocking trout in the Williams and the Cranberry Rivers soon.

We have added a lot of photographs to our personal website - www.livingwatercabins.com. You may want to check that website out too, to get more acquainted with our cabin and the area. We look forward to hearing from you.

SPECIALS – Ask about our discounted rates for rentals of 3 or more nights.

Designed by an architect and built by the owners in 2009. This stunning mountain cabin is a luxurious and complete cozy get-away. It is perfect for a couple, but will also please a small outdoor-loving, active family that ventures out into the surrounding Monongahela National Forest to bike, hike, fish, hunt, kayak, photograph and explore. Take all of your toys.

The Williams River is across the field in front of the cabin-150' away. The Cranberry River is short drive over Red Oak mountain into its watershed. The Williams River is more than 25 mile long.

We have a short video that will show details fo the cabin and the surrounding immediate area: http://vimeo.com/20651993 The screened-in front porch with the rocking chairs is a great place to watch the sunrise with your favorite cup of coffee or tea, and the one you love. Frequently, there are deer sharing the morning with you as they cross the field. We love to grill many of our meals on the gas grill. The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans, dishes, cork screw, skewers, some spices, etc. Sheets and towels are provide. There is Dishwasher soap.

West Virginia's Department of Natural Resources will make one stocking in January, two in February, and weekly throughout the remainder of the spring on Williams and Cranberry Rivers in 2012. In October there will be two stockings in each river. The stockings on the other surrounding rivers is very generous as well. We wish you Good Fishing!!!

For those who want to rent our cabin for 6 or 7 days, we are offering a special 25% discount off the nightly rate, provided the reservation is made before March 31, 2013! The nightly rate for a seven night stay would be reduced to $111.75 per night, which is $782.25, plus housekeeping fee and tax.

Our lovely little cabin is remotely located alongside the Williams River well inside the Monongahela National Forest. Williams River Road follows the Williams River for about 28 miles. The Google Property Marker on the Google Map for this listing is short of the actual location by about 5 or 6 miles. The cabin is 2.8 miles on up river from what locals refer to as the 'Low Water Bridge', which is a Forest Route that crosses the Williams River and goes up over Red Oak Mountain and down to the Cranberry River. This is a good marker. The cabin is 18 miles off of the Highlands Scenic Highway. The Highlands Sceninc Highway and the Williams River Road intersect 18 miles above the cabin.

It is a beautiful drive along the Williams anytime during the year. Great Trout Fishing and excellent Hunting all around the cabin.

Gorgeous Country!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 26, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
It was a wonderful trip, even though the snow made us leave early. The cabin is beautiful and the country around it is so peaceful. The neighbor's dog paid us a visit and the neighbors gave us some ramps. This made us feel like we were home. They made us feel so welcome. No worries of thieves or city distractions. Just good ole country folk living in peace. It was wonderful. The owner's are great and very accommodating. We will definitely be coming back in a couple months! Thanks so much!

Beautiful Cabin in Scenic Location

5 of 5
Submitted: August 22, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
This is a beautiful, well-appointed cabin in a picture post card setting. David and Dona were excellent to deal with and provided information quickly and accurately. We spend a week at the cabin and enjoyed sleeping in, reading, exploring local scenic areas and just taking it easy! We enjoyed grilling on the outdoor grill and found the kitchen equipped with numerous grilling tools, beautiful dishes, etc. Hot tub on the deck was well used during our stay as was the Jacuzzi tub inside.We did not fish but the opportunity was right out the front door in the Williams River. The area is somewhat remote but perfect for those looking to get away and relax in a beautiful setting. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this cabin to friends, relatives or anyone looking for a beautiful, well-appointed cabin in a quiet, scenic location.

Picture Perfect!

David & Dona,



We forgot to write in the guest book. Sue & I mostly enjoyed the architecture, the beautiful lawn, the fire ring at night under the stars, coffee on the deck, the jacuzzi, the loft, countless deer, distant neighbors, Sadie, another dog, New River gorge, little grocery store, Diogi's dog friendly Mexican Restaurant in Fayetteville, steaks on the grill, paths to the river...Katie swam for the first time, scenic hiking, Big Ditch Lake, Summersville Lake (town under water), really friendly people. The rivers were quite low, but I caught 4 fish. That's a lot for me. We'd love to return! Thank you.

Sincerely,
Dave & Sue Taschner

Fantastic Honeymoon!

5 of 5
Submitted: July 26, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
My wife and I had the wonderful opportunity to stay at the cabin for the first four nights of our honeymoon getaway! We had a fantastic time getting away from the busyness of the city and being secluded in the mountains. We didn't fish in Williams River (though I've done this in the past), but we did go for a swim...in the summer swimming in the cool river is actually enjoyable. Though I am family, this review is unbiased...it was a great honeymoon! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get away for the first few nights together as a married couple. Thanks David and Dona!

Restful and relaxing

5 of 5
Submitted: July 22, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
My husband, adult daughter, and I enjoyed three nights (that passed too quickly!) at your wonderful cabin! The cabin was spotless and very nicely furnished. We were hoping that the hot tub would be working by the time we arrived and thankfully, it was! Hubby and I enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub in the late evening, while our daughter enjoyed the indoor jacuzzi tub. We all enjoyed fishing in the Williams River and walks along the main road through the beautiful Monongahela National Forest. We had "dear" visitors in both evening and morning hours, spotting two sets of fawn twins with their mamas and also a buck in the front yard.

Your little cabin in the woods was exactly what we were looking for a short getaway from everyday worries and woes! While we did not have time to visit the Cranberry Backcountry and the surrounding area (because we were too busy relaxing!) we hope to visit again in the future.

You and your family are very blessed to have this little haven to get away from it all. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Owner's Response: You are welcome, and thank you for you generous comments regarding our cabin. We agree that our family is richly blessed, and we are happy to share the blessing with others. We enjoy the deer, and have seen turkeys and many other forms of wildlife from the windows and decks.
