Elk River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very amazing location and staff was the best! We enjoyed every minute of it and we can't wait to go back! Stayed in the dome with king bed and was very comfortable"

Sleep Inn Summersville - New River Gorge Area

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean and mostly well maintained. It was a quiet and comfortable place to rest and sleep. The breakfast was a relatively good quality for the level hotel with the capability to make your own waffles with the option of using Maple syrup. Ok sausages and scrambled eggs. The only thing missing at the breakfast was some fresh fruit: bananas or apples. The only issue with the “property” is some of the back/side doors to the hotel wings did not work properly. After I reported it the first day they brought in a mechanic. You could easily see they had worked on the door but unfortunately it was worse."

The Shady Lane A-Frame in Mt. Lookout. Glamping with A/C, queen bed, and more!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property! There are so many things to do in the area and the cabin was truly a home away from home. Everything was A, we would love to return."

Elk Springs Resort

8/10 Good

"The trip was ok! We were not aware that the onsite restaurant would be closed for the first two days of our trip! We would have brought much more food from home. The cabin and furniture needs some repairs! Simple! Folks were nice and helpful. River was low but beautiful!"
