    The property was amazing! Everything was clean and orderly. The pool was so much fun and the convenience to the main roads made it easy to navigate.

    The house is very nice, but the listing was a little deceiving. We were a bit confused about the “million dollar view”, but if you like looking at a field than maybe. The hot tub is listed as an amenity, but it would’ve been nice to know that it was inflatable. So that was a let down. There’s also a toilet facing a bed on the 2nd floor, just weird! On the upside communication with the host was awesome and we even had a minor issue that was really well handled! The house lost power from a tree that fell down nearby and the host kept in constant contact with us. Not used to places that don’t have linens or soap, but we were advised well in advance that these weren’t provided and the host even went out of their way to get us blankets so we didn’t have to fly in with them. I’d definitely stay there again if I’m in the area.

    the property was nice. in the summer it would be even better to enjoy the outdoor amenities the property has to offer.

    The house was clean and spacious for our clan of 7 adults and 5 children. The kids LOVED the pool and slide and the adults too! Convenient to shopping and activities-10 mins to Canyon Rim visiting center in New River Gorge National Park. Host was very quick to respond to our questions. Description of amenities accurate. Would definitely recommend!

    Pat was very hospitable and kept us with firewood and the house was clean and fit our group of 9 riders. Close to the bridge and Fayetteville and plenty to do in the area. Very great place to stay.

    Pat is very nice and accommodating. There are 5 bedrooms, but only 4 dinner chairs. The kitchen sink plug did not work well. It would have been nice if he would have trimmed around the fire pit.

    The property owner was very nice and helpful. I appreciated their hospitality and willingness to assist in anyway possible. The house was everything that we needed and the kids really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We plan on coming back soon to visit.

    This home was absolutely perfect for what I was looking for! The house itself was so incredibly charming, with TONS of character. Lots of privacy out in the country, with a short drive to the New River Gorge for some whitewater rafting. Tons of fun to be had between the pool, basketball hoop, firepit, and the spacious house itself. Owners were very hospitable as well! 5 Stars! Hope to return in the future!

    Fantastic house. There is no wifi or cable, but the antenna and dvd selection worked for rainy days. Pool is immaculate, kids loved the slide. Not far from a piggly wiggly and the freefolk brewery. Beds were comfortable and nice. Great getaway for family trips. Can see summersville and neighbors firework for 4th of july. Deer ran through the yard everyday, and the kids chased lightnin bugs every evening. The Kesslers are wonderful hosts and very kind.

    Nice place to stay. The kid’s especially loved the swimming pool. The location is great for activities at the New River Gorge, Hawks Nest, and Babcock State Park.
