The A frame was perfect for our family of 4 and dogs. Communication was clear and quick. We received the firewood order really quickly and the local recommendations were fantastic! Highly recommend for families wanting to get away. We explored all of New River Gorge with ease.

WV trip

My stay at "A Frame of Mind" was awesome! I met Michael and he was very helpful in answering my question. I would not hesitate to stay here again; the accommodations were more than satisfactory and the cabin was immaculate! Nice to find accommodations like this that accept pets. My 2 girl dogs loved it! Especially the nearby trails! Would love to come back in my break (3)31/2024).

A Frame of Mind

The description says it sleeps six we had four people staying instead of five but too difficult for my husband and I had to climb the ladder. It was too difficult for my daughter to climb the ladder so my husband and I slept in the bedroom downstairs and my daughter slept on the Futon which wasn’t comfortable. All in all, it was cozy and that sliding glass door needs to be replaced very badly !

Excellent stay at A Frame of Mind

Really enjoyed our stay! We had our toddler with us and found the cabin (A Frame of Mind) very easy to baby proof, so we were really able to relax during our stay. I wish there had been screened windows so we could have opened up the windows because the temperature was so comfy outside while we were staying. The hot tub was very nice with a lovely relaxing view, although it definitely needs a new cover because it was water logged and really heavy to move. The location is excellent. Lake, river access, and gorgeous views all within a 5 minute drive. Overall an excellent stay and we have already talked about coming back.

Birthday Getaway

Such a great little find!! I was initially worried when we pulled up and saw we were in between two other cabins, would there be enough privacy? It was very quiet, everyone stayed to themselves. The position of the hot tub could use some more privacy, it was fine for us but if it was in the summer and the neighbors were out at the for pit we would have been on full display. With that being said, we spent a lot of time in there and really enjoyed it. The kitchen was well equipped. And there was plenty of space around the table, the stove and fridge were very clean. The beds could have used a mattress topper, they were really stiff and not to our liking, but we made due. And the front door leads into a bedroom, which for us wasn't a huge deal but I can see others being uncomfortable with that, especially if you are staying with friends. My one suggestion for the bathroom would be a shower caddy of some sort. There is nowhere to put your toiletries while showering except the floor and I personally don't like doing that. Overall, we had an amazing time, and will stay if we're are in the area again.
