The Sanctuary at Lost River State Park: Your Secluded Mountain Escape

Discover unparalleled tranquility and natural beauty at The Sanctuary, your private haven nestled directly beside the main entrance of Lost River State Park. We've crafted the perfect mountain getaway, blending modern comfort with the serene embrace of the West Virginia wilderness.

This inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage, offers a beautiful atmosphere with all the modern conveniences you need for a relaxing stay. But it's outside where The Sanctuary truly shines. Step into your private and secluded backyard oasis, a hidden gem perfect for unwinding. Gather around the crackling fire pit for evenings filled with stargazing, storytelling, and s'mores under the vast mountain sky. Relax in the new hot tub to end the day. This the ideal space for intimate outdoor dinners or simply soaking in the peace and quiet of the Lost River Valley.

While you'll feel wonderfully off-grid and immersed in nature, you're still conveniently located near charming local restaurants and markets. The Sanctuary at Lost River State Park isn't just a place to stay; it's your personal retreat, perfectly positioned for unforgettable adventures and profound relaxation

    This was an ideal cabin for two my dog, a short distance from Lost River State Park, and about three miles from Lost & Found Pizza on the main road. It was very quiet and the lack of ambient lights made for wonderful star gazing. I had up to 13 different bird species identified on my app, and that's mostly all we heard - the bird songs.The house is great, with a nice 100-degree hot tub in the back. We enjoyed breakfasts at the table in back, and relaxing with cocktails on the rockers in front before heading out for dinner. In addition to Los & Found, we enjoyed Lost River Grill for delicious, unpretentious food. Both were manned by very friendly locals.The kitchen is well-equipped, but if there was a coffee grinder, we didn't find it (was noted in the description). No matter, as I brought already-ground coffee as a precaution. We watched Netflix on the TV (with my own account), on the very comfortable sofa which was a nice L-shaped design with foot extension on one side.All said, it was a great, peaceful 4-day escape from the city's noise and bustle!

    The house was cute and affordable,the hot tub really added to the experience. We had no idea we were so close to a beautiful state park! That was a win!

    Everything was great! The only thing I would recommend improving is to make sure that the grill is clean.

    My girlfriends and I loved this adorable, stylishly designed house—especially the well-stocked kitchen, the firepit, and the hot tub!

    The property was wonderful and exactly as described. We enjoyed our weekend away and would love to come back. Any questions I had they were answered very quickly. We enjoyed the hot tub and sitting in the swings even though we didn’t use the fire pit.
