Fern Creek Cabins @ New River Gorge, Secluded, White Water, Hiking, Hot Tub.

Conveniently located near popular area attractions and outdoor activities, Fern Creek Cabins offer year round, affordable, pet friendly vacation lodging in the beautiful mountains of southern West Virginia. Our two cabins sit on 38 private acres of pristine hemlock forrest near the north rim of the New River Gorge National River in Lookout, WV. You can check out our one-room cabin listing at #395725.

Both cabins feature hot tub, outdoor fire-pit with chairs and firewood, gas grill, fully equipped kitchens. All sheets and towels are provided. Fishing in small pond on property great for kids to catch small bass.

For those who just want to relax, Fern Creek Cabins offers plenty of space to roam about the property. Our cabins have comfortable porches equipped with grills and hot tubs, outdoor fire pits, and lots of beautiful yard space for throwing horseshoes or playing softball.

We welcome well behaved pets charging $40 pet fee for cleaning .

We ask our guests to not smoke in our cabins.

While our 2 cabin's share the peaceful seclusion of the Appalachians, it is but a few short miles over New River Gorge Bridge to downtown Fayetteville, named 'Coolest Small Town in America.' Come visit and take a walk around. You’ll find a vibrant shopping district and fantastic restaurants, windows to browse with lots to buy, and a lovely town park.

'Endless Wall Trail' lies a mile around the corner which tours one of the wonders of the New River Gorge -- the unbroken cliffline known as the Endless Wall, which follows the rim of the gorge and offers access to dozens of bolted climbing routes. Breathtaking panoramas await hikers as the trail leads along the top of the cliffs through gnarled pines, mossy boulders, and rhododendron thickets.

New River Gorge

We loved this little, secluded cabin! It was perfect for what we wanted. Our dogs were able to roam the yard freely in the open yard without worry. We loved the yard for playing games, lots of fishing took place, and ended the day in the hot tub! If you want a nice private cabin the whole family will enjoy then this is the one!!

Excellent cabin near several prime locations!

The cabin is lovely and well stocked. They’ve thought of everything. It was a cozy option near several tourist attractions and drivable (1 hour) to even more. It is a quiet location with two cabins. Nice hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor porch areas too. We enjoyed the on property trail and nearby hikes like the Endless Wall and Gorge. Our cell hotspot worked nicely and we enjoyed the large movie collection too. We highly recommend this spot, if you’re looking for a getaway that is within a quick drive of the Gorge and you want to avoid the crowds. We liked the seclusion and peace.

Exploring New River Gorge

We wanted a place relatively close to Pittsburgh to explore and found the perfect spot! The area is lovely. The restaurants such as “ Pies and Pints” and “Secret Sandwich Society” were delicious. The whole experience of hiking and walking the bridge at the gorge was incredible. Our stay at Fern Creek Cabins was the icing on the cake. I have high standards for cleanliness and the place was spotless. Kitchen had everything you could want, and the whole cabin was very comfortable. The frogs peeping at night were very calming. We talked about coming back in the fall to see the leaves in the area and will definitely book this cabin again.

Great Cabin

We enjoyed our stay here. It is in a nice, quiet, secluded area but not a far drive to access hiking trails, the Canyon Rim Visitor Center at the national park, Fayetteville, and other area attractions. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and the surrounding property is beautiful. My daughter enjoyed the tree swing and watching the fireflies at night.

Great place to escape from it all

The cabin was very comfortable and has everything you need. The hot tub was very enjoyable as well as the fire pit for some rest and relaxation time. The location is close to town but felt very secluded. We would definitely book again if we were coming back to the New River Gorge area.

Little slice of heaven

Just went to Fern Creek cabins with my family and our dogs and a wonderful time was had by all! The cabins are homey and welcoming with practically everything you could need. Property is beautiful and secluded, offering a great way to unplug. Close to amenities in town and plenty of outdoor activities. Definitely worth staying at this property if you're in the area!

Cabin with large lawn

This place was a perfect option for our group (instead of camping). It had everything we needed. Stocked kitchen. A great place to enjoy the outdoors, campfire and night sky. Plenty of space to play ball or frisbee. And the hot tub was a treat. Very close to anctiviEs, rafting and hiking The nice caretaker left us large planks of firewood which are good for a big fire once you axe them down. He even brought is some fresh eggs from their chickens! And my son loved throwing the ball for his dog Buddy.

Nice getaway

The cabin was a little dated, but very clean and tidy. It was fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, linens, etc. The beds were very comfortable. There was plenty to see and do in the local area. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. To all future guests: be advised that the hot tub is located on the front porch. We discovered that there’s someone living in a small outbuilding across the way with a direct view of the hot tub.

Great Getaway

We have never stayed in WV before this weekend. When the directions to the cabin were sent to us through email we knew we were in for a treat. We were truly in a little cabin at the top of a mountain. It was simple and clean but had absolutely everything we needed! Only a few miles from the New River National Park! Only 3 miles from the Endless Wall hike that was unbelievably breath taking! We will be back in the summer to enjoy the mountains and white water raft!!

Absolutely perfect slice of "Almost Heaven"

We arrived to a perfectly clean and prepared cabin. I can not think of one thing the cabin did not have that we needed. Some may say WiFi but you come here to leave that behind. This home sits o ame place twice because life is too short and so many options to try.  This is the first place I would definitely stay in again if and when I'm back in the area.  We had a great time and stayed 2 extra days last minute.   The property owners were so great and made us feel welcome.  I highly recommend if you are looking for a great get away spot this is one you should give a try.  Just perfect.   n top of a hill away from everyone and everything but so very close to everything you could possibly want to do or see.  The New River Gorge was great to visit and to hike some of the most beautiful mountains.  The New River Gorge Bridge Walk was absolutely worth it.  Great views and great staff!  Lots of waterfalls and sights to see.  I always say that I would never stay at the same place twice because life is too short and so many options to try.  This is the first place I would definitely stay in again if and when I'm back in the area.  We had a great time and stayed 2 extra days last minute.   The property owners were so great and made us feel welcome.  I highly recommend if you are looking for a great get away spot this is one you should give a try.  Just perfect.

Peaceful!

We stayed in the two bedroom cabin on the property. The cabin was furnished with everything needed including a full kitchen and washer/dryer. It was a very nice place for our family of 6 to unplug, play games, eat together and watch movies (there is a dvd player and a ton of older movies provided). There is no wifi (which we enjoyed). Our younger kids loved the swing out back by the pond. There was a bit of a wind storm and we lost power for a few hours, but with city water and a gas stove, we were able to make the best of it. There is an onsite caretaker and he is very helpful and responsive to every need. He went above and beyond our expectations. We would most definitely return. We love to hike and this cabin is very close to several great trails (Endless Wall is one of our favorites) and it's also close to the New River Gorge Bridge.

This was the perfect spot for our family while we visited New River Gorge National Park. The place was incredibly clean and stocked with everything we needed and more. With 2 adults, 4 kids, and a big dog, we had plenty of space and didn't feel crowded. The surrounding land was remote and peaceful with a little pond where the kids found baby frogs, and an epic tree swing. The hot tub and fire pit were so nice to use in the evenings. The host was super responsive and kind. We felt right at home, and will definitely stay again when we are back in the area if they aren't already booked!
