vacation at this secluded property offered by all get out vacation rentals!
enjoy your own private beach with no other houses in sight Open meadows, trees, river and stream -- this secluded yet accessible cabin has it all. Warm and welcoming three bedroom, 2 full baths, sun porch, open kitchen with modern appliances, gas grill, outdoor fire-pit, and fine furnishings throughout.
listen to the sound of the babbling brook within 50 feet of the house while lounging in the sunroom or relaxing on the deck In addition, the property has 27 acres of private beach access to the Shavers fork river. The house is engulfed in a narrow band of trees and surrounded by meadows and glades for walks (bring long pants and socks to explore). It is also situated just 1/4 mile upstream from the one-million acre Monongahela National Forest.
the house features natural wood-plank paneling and a well-appointed kitchen, wi-fi, television with satellite tv and dvd player, and a stereo/home theater system The kitchen is open to the dining area, perfect for social cooking. The sunroom has seating for dining or board games with a full view of the stream so you can enjoy the outdoors even in inclement weather.
this cozy ground-level home sleeps 8 in beds There is a MBR w/ Queen; BR #2 w/ Queen, BR #3 w/ two sets of Twin bunks, and Livingroom w/ Queen pull-out sofa.
for fall or early spring visits, the house features electric heat and a wood-stove (a modest amount of firewood is included in the rental fee) There is a window unit A/C in each of the three bedrooms and the living room, and ceiling fans in each of the queen bedrooms and the living room.
in winter months, be prepared for snowy and/or icy road conditions by driving a 4wd or suitable vehicle It's advisable whenever driving in wintry conditions in the mountains of WV to be prepared with chains as the roads are often hazardous. At times the snow can be deep and it takes 24-48 hours before it is plowed, therefore you should be flexible about travel.
the cabin is remote, so even in clear weather its narrow mountain gravel road can be concerning to those not experienced Depending on whether the road crew has done repairs recently, there may be potholes. In most cases you can drive around them, but there may be a few on the way that you’ll just need to slowly drive through. There are also no guardrails on the road, but it has several turnouts to allow cars to pass. The gravel is not suitable for street motorcycles, we've been told.
please be aware of the close proximity of the stream to decide if the risk is too great for your toddlers or other children who might leave the house unsupervised Our other Vrbo listing #317752 has a larger land buffer between the house and the moving water.
the river is about a 5 minute walk across the property from the house There is absolutely no vehicular traffic allowed off the driveway.
pet friendly -- dogs only please, and no more than two dogs per reservation unless owner exception is granted in writing
owners provide a starter quantity of paper products, bathroom soap, and laundry/dish detergent Personal toiletries are to be provided by Guests.
if you are looking for a remote mountain getaway and are willing to roll with what comes from a country vacation, you will be hard pressed to find a more beautiful spot!
because the house is surrounded by forests, the creek, and the river, there is plenty of nature to enjoy but also to endure Mice will occasionally come inside, and although we set hidden traps to keep them from settling in, there is a possibility that you will see them during your stay depending on whether they've found a food source recently (it could be from a prior guest -- not your own doing.) We do, however, check to make sure that the kitchen implements are sanitary at the beginning of your stay.
the bug situation is that we are at a high enough elevation to not have a mosquito problem, but there will be gnats in the field, and moths at night wanting to get into the house There will also be plenty of dead bugs that wedge themselves between the screens and the windows.
if these aspects of nature are acceptable to you, then you will find a beautiful place of nature in which to relax and enjoy your vacation!

Summary: House & property described to a tee! Our son is a student athlete at D&E and was unable to leave for spring break so we went to him. It was exactly what we expected. WV experienced all four seasons in one week. It made our stay even better. We walked the river on the warm days, admired the sleet, hail and snow on the others. Enjoyed the hot tub & the heated bathroom floors. Will come back for some kayaking in the summer. Loved it! Ohhhh and the beds are comfy! Thank you!
