New River Gorge Cottage w/ Fire Pit, Grill & Hot Tub

Summary:
Elwood Cottage is a charming, newly-renovated home located in a small community in the West Virginia mountains, merely minutes from Wolf Creek mountain biking trails, and just 10 minutes from New River Gorge National Park!

The highlights:
- Relax in the hot tub!
- Roast marshmallows around the fire pit
- Hang out & grill on the front porch
- Stream on fast WiFi
- Drive 10 mins to New River Gorge Bridge & National Park
- Play cornhole & other yard games (or board games inside)

Enjoy!

The Space:
Our one-story (so no concern with stairs), family-friendly home is packed with amenities and fun for couples, families or groups of friends. The cottage is located in a neighborhood in the town of Oak Hill, WV with great restaurants, bars, and shops downtown.

The cottage includes:
- 2 bedrooms: Bedroom 1-Queen Bed, Bedroom 2-Twin over Queen bunk bed (sleeps 3!)
- A pull-out sofa in the living room (don’t worry, it’s comfortable!)
- Fully-stocked kitchen with stove/oven, microwave, and dishwasher
- Smart TV where you can quickly sign-in to your favorite streaming service
- Fast WiFi (50+ Mbps) that's more than enough to stream movies and hold video calls – perfect for working remotely
- AC in all the main rooms to keep you comfortable

Outside the cottage, we also have:
- Enjoy the hot tub after a long day exploring the area
- Outside fire pit with seating for your group
- A front porch with a grill – and space to relax with a cold beer or glass of wine
- An outdoor yard game treasure box full of activities for kids and adults: cornhole, volleyball, soccer balls, horseshoes, and many more!

Please note: Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but due to the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or similar—especially during certain seasons. We appreciate your understanding as nature tends to leave its mark, no matter how often we tidy up!

We often take our three little kids and dog to the cottage with us, so we're very family- and dog-friendly. Unfortunately we don't allow cats (we're allergic).

Beyond the cabin itself, we love how close we are to New River Gorge National Park (only a 10 minute drive away). The park has excellent hiking, views from the bridge, and of course whitewater rafting. These are several outfitters to plan your river excursion or mountain biking trail ride right nearby.

Everything you need for a great getaway!

Great spring break trip

We loved how central and quiet this house was. It had everything we needed for our short spring break trip. Kids loved the bunk beds and the hot tub. The host was super responsive with any questions we had about the cabin or the area. Great stay!

Great Jumping off point to NRG

Can for a fall getaway to Tony's cabin with my young family. Was close to New river gorge entrance, and the house was recently outfitted. Had everything we needed - the fire pit and hot tub made for a fun outdoor weekend. Loved the outdoor games as well, the kids had a good time.

Fun, cute overnight stay!

Overall, this property is everything that was promised! The house was clean, spacious, and in great shape. My friends and I only stayed one night to be close to New River Gorge Ntl. Park (10 minutes away!), but we had a great time. The host is also highly responsive and attentive. One thing I didn't notice before hand is that the house is in a neighborhood, but the shrubs keep it fairly private, so we didn't disturb anyone!

Check in and out was effortless. The home was in good condition. Slight musty odor likely due to the age of the home. Plenty of linens and dishes. The neighborhood is quiet. Hot tub was nice and clean and great to use!

Exactly what we hoped

We stayed here for a few days to explore the New River Gorge. Having never been to the area before, I realized later that there are places that we almost booked that would've been very far from the places we wanted to see. This location was just right - close to Oak Hill and Fayetteville for shops/dining, and 10 minutes or so to the New River Gorge Bridge. We did several hikes, using the house as a "base camp" and it worked out perfect. We drove south once to the Grandview Overlook, which was about 45 minutes, and are glad we didn't choose to stay down there! Communication with the host was wonderful; they were always responsive and helpful with all our questions. We loved the hot tub as that was always a great way to start the day.Overall, we had a great stay! Thank you for letting us come!

Oak Hill house

We went to West Virginia mostly for white water rafting. This house was only 10 minutes away from Ace adventures. Loved the small yown. We enjoyed the house. The kids loved the game room and hot rub of course. I will say for future families, the doors do not lock. Not the bedroom or the bathroom, so bring a wedge if u and ur signifigant other want some privacy

Oak Hill

Pretty much had everything we needed. We didn't use the hot tub, grill, or fire pit. In town, not much to choose from as far as nicer restaurants or things to do so we went to Fayetteville every day. Comfortable bed, room darkening curtains in the entire house, good suggestions in the folder on where to eat, things to do.

Very convenient for New River Gorge. I would like a TV service where I could access Sports and News. We are too old for Hulu, etc. The front hedge needs to be seriously trimmed. Neighborhood was quiet and easy to access. Kitchen was well equipped. Please include kleenex in your standard amenities.

New River Gorge Spring Break Stop

Bridge

The house is very cute. It rained so we didn’t use the hot tub and probably wouldn’t have because it’s not very private. Toured and hiked at the ‘big bridge’ which is stunning.

This home was just right for a long weekend of outdoor activities close by. The house was neat & clean and provided necessities. Nice hot tub! Keep in mind the parking situation is at a premium and a challenge for more than one vehicle. Communication with our home manager was excellent as well.
