Beautiful place and fully stocked with whatever you need to cookk with. Love the house and so peaceful and quiet! Was nice to relax for 5 daysin such a nice place.
Really nice house exactly as described. Beautiful deck overlooking the river with osprey and eagles soaring around. Everything was comfortable and just as described. It was a bit of a drive to get back to “civilization” but really nothing was out of reach. Loved our stay and would come back if the opportunity presents itself!
The home was updated and clean. The fishing was great. The scenery was very pretty. It's off the beaten path and the neighbors are a little intimidating, but they were as kind and welcoming as the property owners. I highly recommend this home for an off the grid getaway.
We were very impressed with hoise and thrilled with the beautiful back country setting. House is clean and everything works. Great porch for outdoor dining and water to play in not to mention we want to come again and bring our 4 wheeler. Great experience!
This house was great! We made awesome memories and enjoyed all it had to offer! The river was beautiful, and caught some fish! Beds were comfortable, lots of room to spread out and the deck was phenomenal! Kitchen has all you will need to cook, bedrooms were a great size! Just a great time had by all!
We had a wonderful time and really appreciate how clean and organized the home was. We were looking forward to the train, which never passed through. I highly recommend this property, wonderful, remodeling, easy check-in, and beautiful, relaxing location. The owners communicated clearly and available if needed.
This is our second stay at this home. This home has everything you could possibly need. The view can’t be described. If you truly love relaxing by a beautiful river, fishing, deer watching and just enjoying nature, this is the home for you.
The directions provided to find the house are detailed and were much appreciated. The house is beautiful. Clean. Plenty of room for everyone. The decor is warm and welcoming. The deck is awesome! Perfect for relaxing after an adventure filled day. The grandchildren enjoyed the house and the river. They enjoyed playing with the toy trucks. Nice selection of children's books for bedtime story time. Lannette was easy to communicate with. I would recommend this piece of "Heaven in a River".
We enjoyed our stay. This home was beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed. I was very impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked (waffle iron, crock pot and every utensil you will need) We absolutely loved the location. Mother nature decided to be a little crazy and we had everything from snow, extremely high winds and lots of rain. The owners were so helpful when we lost power. It was nice meeting Lanette and George. If you have an issue I promise they will quickly help. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Start with the not positive, the house is located in a valley so winter weather made the roads not so great. The freezer could have been cleaner and lack of local stations made following weather and watching football games tough. The internet is not great.... Other than that, our stay was absolutely amazing! The house was perfect for our needs, warm, loved being on the river, and comfy couches. The little touches took it over the top. Plenty of blankets and seating. The house was very warm! We would definitely stay again, would like to be there in the summer also.
Pro: New/ just remodel house, spacious, well stock with kitchen appliances and utensils. Table pGames for children, wifi was great and tv services. Calm relaxing neighborhood and river view. Mattresses were comfortable enough. Nice hiking scenery around train tracks and view of wild life.
Cons: Asian beetles alive and death in the upper rooms, we clean them the first night we got in the house, but they keep getting into the bedrooms and we have to pick them out of the beds, no cool. House it is really nice, minus the bugs.
Me, my husband, and our 3 teenagers stayed here and absolutely loved this property! The house is beautiful, spacious, and equipped with everything you could need! The Kitchen is well stocked and even had basic cooking pantry supplies like salt, pepper, sugar etc. The huge deck out back is perfect for relaxing and listening to the birds chirp or watching the kids play in the river and eating meals at the large outdoor dining set. The river out back is stunning and the fishing is great. We caught many bass and trout during our stay. WiFi was great which was good to load our maps/GPS bedore we went out exploring the area. We visited the nearby city of buckhannon which was about a 30 minute drive and has anything you would need like fast food, gas stations, grocery stores etc. We also visited nearby Audra state park and it was a beautiful place with trails to hike and a nice place to swim in the river. The owners are very responsive and helpful if you need them, we would definitely stay again!
4 couples with plenty of room to visit and enjoy. Loved the covered porch.

Great Secluded Spot
Beautiful newly renovated with all the kitchen items anyone would ever need. Plenty of towels and linens. Beautiful scenery on the river. Plenty of room to lounge. Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely go back again. The place looks brand new.
