Wonderful Weekend!
Being originally born in Weston 73+ years ago, living in Ohio most of my life, it’s always good to get back to WV. Your cabin was the perfect size for a family of 7. Price was right, like the online pics, no surprises, just as expected. We hope we left it as you would want, we’ll be back.

Mountain Getaway
We had a great time at the house. Location is great to enjoy the WV wildlife center and visiting the charming village of Helvetia ( the Hutte restaurant is delicious- cash/check only!). The property was nice - the firepit was great and the boys enjoyed fishing. The other property is close by- which may effect star gazzing if lights are on; and noise does travel. Cheryl was easy to communicate with and very responsive!

We were in town for a family reunion and this home was a great place to stay. From the spacious house, the fire pit and the beautiful surroundings, it was pretty close to perfect!

Reunion
Clean home with all of the necessary items. I feel a binder with the necessary information regarding TV operation, microwave, oven and washer and dryer. Seniors struggle with the operation of new or unusual appliances and televisions. Cheryl as very friendly, accommodating, and responded quickly to our requests for information. WIFI was available and worked well. Cellular service was not available at the house. Deer, Turkeys, Geese and birds were present or could be heard daily. The Whippoorwill's were singing morning and night. Spring is a great time of year. We had 7 adults so the available beds were just right. Home can sleep 11 in the available beds and there is the couch too. Rear wood deck has 6 chairs and a table and there are 5 Adirondack chairs around the firepit.
