Sweet Retreat in the Woods

Finding this sweet home in the woods is worth the long uphill drive on the gravel road. Don't give up! Keep going! Super comfy beds. Well appointed kitchen. Drop dead gorgeous living room and decks and fire pit area. Hoping I can come back and stay longer next time. Owner was quick in responding to a question I had. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us Shaleen!

Gods Country

I forgot how beautiful it was on Fallbush Mountain. I was there for the weekend to support my son during his father's memorial service. With the loss of his dad, he now owns the cabin down the hill from you (next door). It was so helpful being close to him during this difficult time. I loved your place. It was so comfortable and homey. I will defiantly come back again and stay during family events/weekends. It is so convient to just walk through the woods to next door to be with everyone. ;-)

Perfect mountain cabin in a beautiful, remote setting.

Cabin had everything you needed for a mountain escape, even extra fire wood. Well cared for, clean and peaceful. Make sure to pack everything you need as far as food and supplies, as cabin is definitely in a remote setting. Lots of deer, so watch out if arriving after dark. We had a very relaxing weekend and we would definitely come back.

Wonderful

Everything was fantastic. Other guests had left spices behind for flavorful cooking. Quiet quiet quiet! Can do some real good meditation. The dog enjoyed every moment that when he was inside he was sleeping. Plenty of movies for a stormy day. Only thing I can say is lil off was the online said I arrived at my location a house or 2 too early. I didnt see any sign even the the host mentioned there would be one, so go figure it was the wrong place. Dont trust the online trust the host hahaha! Otherwise its truly a place to getaway!

Better than pictures or description

When I think of A-frame mountain house, this is quintessentially what I think of; and the pics undersell how beautiful the house really is. I'm really into architecture that is both crisp and respectful of its environment, and this place is exactly that. I loved sitting outside and looking back at the frame. Inside, it was well appointed, clean and, comfortable to kick back and relax. The wifi was fast and I did a couple of work Zoom calls, but keep in mind that you are up in the mountains of WV so cell signal stopped well before the bottom of the hill. I grew up on a farm with a single draw well, so I'm used to water that has a slight sentiment and/or odor but if you're finicky, just bring a jug or two of distilled water. We brought sheets towels etc but didn't need to as we found all of already there and set up for us! Keep your location in mind in case you want to eat out. It's not like walking down the block in Philly, but the two places we found about 20 miles away were excellent. Check in was easy, and took less time than a hotel. The property manager / owner was helpful and stayed in communication the whole weekend. I don't really have any negatives to say about a place if you're wanting to get away and (semi) disconnect from the online world.

Lovely stay at a remote cabin in West Virginia

Before we arrived, the owner gave us a thorough and detailed guide about what to expect during our stay. This was very helpful, and I appreciated the additional information and communication leading up to the trip. When we arrived, the cabin was in great shape, clean, and comfortable (also loved the trial-sized shampoo, conditioner, and body wash!). The cabin was exactly as advertised and exceeded our expectations, though as other reviewers have pointed out, make sure to bring your own potable water to drink if you're not used to well water. Overall an excellent experience—highly recommended for a quiet weekend stay that is close to nature!

Beautiful! *sulfur water*

The property is gorgeous! Everything met the descriptions as advertised. The owner was great to deal with and very prompt answering the few questions we had. The only issue was the strong sulfur water. We weren’t prepared for this but thankfully we’re able to melt snow and boil for drinking water.

Rural when you need to get away from it all. Well maintained, attractive cabin. Strong WiFi for working away from home. Cellular is challenging. There is a house phone. Owner ensures satisfaction. Bring what you want, what you need is there, stores are many miles…oh, and that fire pit :-)

About the host

Hosted by Shaleen Parson

Host profile image
Veteran who loves to travel all over the world currently working for DoD. Stayed at many hotels and each one provides a unique experience which led me to establishing SLParson Homes. This is one of many homes to come to provide a getaway to families for a moment in time taking them away from thier normal routine of day to day living. Sometimes we all need a break. Traveling to Costa Rica, Belize, Peru, Guatemala, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Columbia, Hawaii, Alaska and many states across the US have always kept me humble and grounded to appreciate the little things. Book today and stay at the remote cabin for a non traditional get away for a moment in time.
