About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Nature Retreat l Minutes to WV Mtn Adventures!

You need to get away for a few days. At this cabin, mountain adventures are just outside your door. Hiking, rock climbing, photography, bird watching, fishing, and more!

At the end of the day, return to your Home Away from Home for a campfire and a long night’s rest.

But, can't get away from your job? No problem-- this cabin has WiFi available! How about a workcation?!

Please read the following cabin description so you know what to expect.

The cabin is in the heart of the Spruce Knob Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area-- 20 minutes from Spruce Knob or Seneca Rocks. Other popular attractions are nearby also.

The property borders the national forest, so hiking and other nature activities are right there.

The cabin has a full bath, stocked with linens.

As for food preparation, the cabin has a kitchenette with a double-burner hot plate, a microwave, four-cup coffee pot, and a small refrigerator. Note: please do not drink the tap water; there will be several bottles of drinking water at the cabin to get you started; after that, you will need to provide your own.

Outside, chill out on the country-style front porch and let the world go by. Enjoy a cup of coffee while watching the squirrels.

There is also a fire pit, park-style grill, and a picnic table, because what vacation to the mountains is complete without a campfire and burgers?!

Please note that we do not allow early check-ins or late check-outs. Check-in is anytime after 4 pm, and check-out is 11:00 am or before.

Guests have access to the entire cabin except for one locked closet with cleaning supplies.

We are available by phone, and may or may not stop by. Phone service is not good in the area, so it is best to make all contact before you come.

We have two other cabins close by. Other than that, there is wilderness, hiking, and scenery in abundance!

Bring your own transportation.

It is best to come in an all-wheel drive vehicle in snow months. The cabin is at 3000 ft elevation.

Please do not drink the tap water at the cabin. You will find several bottles of water under the kitchen sink. Other than that, you will need to bring drinking water.

This is a disconnect-from-it-all-and-recharge-in-nature vacation, although WiFi is now available at the cabin. (: Phone service is limited. If you have AT&T, you can get service 15 minutes from the cabin. You can drive 45-50 minutes to get Verizon.

Quaint Cozy Spot
Small Cabin with just the essentials. Located on the forest road up to spruce knob which is worth the drive prior to sunset. Clean place. Nice local diner reaturant down the hill.

Right on Spruce Mountain
If you're headed to the Spruce Knob area, this cabin is right on the forest road that leads in there. Pretty easy check in, fairly cozy, the cabin is RIGHT by the road so be aware. Great place.

Great Getaway
Cabin is perfect for exploring this area of West Virginia. We took a short drive over to Seneca Rocks and hiked the Seneca Rocks trail. Fabulous views along the trail and great viewing platform at the end. Luckily, the fog lifted the next day and we were able to go to both Spruce Knob Lake and the Whispering Spruce Trail that circles the knob. Views were absolutely breathtaking and some of the best we have seen in our travels around the country.

This was perfect
We really enjoyed our stay, made us feel like we can do comfortably with so much less at home- bc it was perfect. We shared the bed rather than use the pull out couch. We should have planned ahead better for hot plate, microwave meals- or they have an outdoor charcoal grill, but we had rain every day. We really loved staying there.
