So let me say this. The pics don’t sue this wonderful peaceful justice. Me and my family stayed for 7 days. Beautiful, private, cozy, clean. Had everything you need on the property. From wood for fire pit to towels and even coffee. We enjoyed the porch swing during the thunderstorm. And the view off the wrap around porch. Tons of local wildlife and centrally located to all the adventure the National park has to offer. Easy check in and out. Very helpful host def going back.
The cabin is a unique combination of very old (would love to know the history) and newly added construction. It has such character! The floor plan is great and there is room for a family to spread out. Watching the deer was a highlight for us! The birds around the property are incredible! Bats in the evenings were a bonus!! It was just the peaceful getaway we needed! The proximity to all we wanted to do just couldn't have been better! 10 min from the Endless Wall, the NRG, trail riding at Cowboy Town, Fayette Station Rd, easy to get to Gauley, nearby several waterfalls...all the things yet still a perfect cabin tucked in the woods. Michael was a wonderful host!
We chose this cabin for our stay in WV on a fishing trip. The cabin was clean, comfy and a nice, quiet, secluded lot not far from Route 19. The process of booking the stay and getting in and out were great.The only issues were the Hot water for showering was not particularly hot and the dishwasher. The dishwater had a sensor prompt an error and beeped an alert. The alert would not cancel and power OFF only lasted for 3-5 seconds before the alert beeping came back ON. It beeped all night and disturbed efforts to sleep.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Ideal location for enjoying NRG. Short drive to most activities. We enjoyed the shaded deck but the globe strand lights from pics were missing so it was either pitch black or super bright outdoor lights at night. Kitchen was not well equipped for much cooking— very old scratched nonstick pans/pots with mismatched lids, dull knives. We found several alive and dead yellow jackets in the house which was alarming. Wifi access required you to opt-in to receive email marketing from sponsors (aka sign up for email spam) — no thanks. Didn’t come to go online, but it would’ve been nice to stream a movie for the kids on my iPad…
This was the most amazing location and the home was even more perfect! This will be our new vacation spot! The calm and relaxation we felt was beyond comprehension! I def will spend my birthday trip here in March!
We met our family there with all of our kids and it was perfect. The location was near all kinds of attractions. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again in the future.
We didn’t explore near as much with having such little kids but it’s definitely family friendly. There was something for someone to do at the cabin for all ages. Highly recommend this cabin for your next family vacation.
Great location. Easy access. Beautiful cabin very spacious. Everything about this cabin was wonderful. We will definitely try to stay here for every trip we make back to the Natural Bridge area. Thank micheal and family for sharing your propert with us
We enjoyed our stay at this rustic cabin. It is near many activities at the New river. The cabin has all of the modern amenities you would expect at a rental these days. If you enjoy peace and quiet, you will like this rental.
We loved our stay at the cabin it was the perfect cozy retreat for our family of 5. My children loved sleeping in the loft area and the hot tub was the highlight of the cabin for my kids. Overall the cabin was exactly what was advertised and we would definitely stay there again. Great location.
We stayed 2 nights in the Rocky Top retreat and absolutely loved it! It was a very comfortable, well-appointed cabin in a great location. We had kids, parents, grandparents and the house had something for all ages. We loved sitting on the porch and playing games and watching the sunset. So close to all the beautiful New River gorge has to offer.
We rented the cottage for a weekend away with our 2 kids (9 and 6) and had a wonderful stay. The cottage was beautiful, pristinely clean, and appointed with everything we could need for the weekend. Great location-just minutes away from Adventures on the Gorge. Host even had a S’mores kit in the kitchen and games in the living room. Beautiful wrap around deck. Would definitely stay here again!
We loved our stay and can't wait to come back. The only advice I have is to add lamps in the bedrooms instead of having to use the light on the fans.

Why they chose this property
We built this cabin in 2019 as an investment. We love the property so much we decided to share it with others. This cabin is in the best location in the Fayetteville area. You are 5 minutes to town, shopping, the New River Gorge National Park and 20 minutes to beautiful Summerville lake. But you are rural enough to kick back and relax. We have 6 acres of woods for your family and all of your fur babies to enjoy. There’s over 500 sq ft of covered porch for a rainy day or an evening grilling some dinner. The outdoor fire pit and hot tub are our two favorite amenities. You’ll love Rocky Top Retreat!
