Annual Trip to the Deerling

The Deerling is the best place and most fun I’ve ever had. Owner was great and super friendly, place was clean, plenty of room, quiet and relaxing. Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay.

This cabin is off the path that we normally take! It is secluded and beautiful! My children absolutely loved it there! Even rainy and cold we had a great time! It is very clean and the owners are the most awesome people! A must have for people wishing to take a step back and relax! My children ran around the huge property and made all the noise they wanted while laughing and giggling!

Comfortable cabin, peaceful location

This cozy cabin made for an excellent home base during a recent family girls’ trip to the Helvetia and Pickens areas. The large bathroom adequately accommodated three women and was stocked with plenty of towels. Beds were comfortable and dressed with soft linens. We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin’s peaceful and secluded setting, accessed by an easily navigable drive. I appreciated the value of this rental along with the owner’s excellent communication and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Our stay was wonderful. No phonecalls could come in or out but we enjoyed that extra quiet. The WiFi helped with maps and boredom. The Coe county store down the road was really nice. Great food and prices without having to go too far. We did Fasnacht this year and this place was close by which helped greatly! The steep incline to get to the cabin shocked us at first but we soon mastered it.

Secluded, Peaceful and Gorgeous

We were spending a few days attending a local festival and by God’s Grace found this gorgeous property. Extremely clean, rustic decor, very comfortable. Fun games, good wifi, and we had a blast with Deer Pong. Enjoy the wildlife which visits, including deer and a very inquisitive hummingbird! Cows watch you from the lower pasture. I would recommend for anyone looking for secluded peace! Bring food. Nearest grocery is a hike!

Short getaway

Everything went smoothly from checking in and out. As stated the property is isolated but that was part of the allure. We visited Green Bank observatory, West Virginia wildlife center and Audra state park. Travelled from Pittsburgh area and stopped at Tygart lake and enjoyed the floatables on the lake for some good fun. So numerous things to do as well as night time fires at the cabin. Definitely recommend!
