  • My annual vacation

    5/5

    My wife and I wanted to go somewhere for some real peace and quiet. Frankly we couldn't have done better. Although it rained 3 out of 4 days, actually this couldn't have happened any better for us. We sat on the front porch and just chilled out. We loved it. The cabin was extremely comfortable. We're going back...

  • Nice getaway

    5/5

    This was a great little cabin for a getaway. The host is excellent at communicating and helped in any way. The WiFi was great because there is no service! The fire pit was disappointing as it is somewhat grown up around it in the summer and not well laid out. We would stay here again if coming to WV!

  • Great Long Weekend Away

    5/5

    My husband and I stayed for a long weekend to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We enjoyed the cabin very much. It’s pretty remote but not secluded, which is what we wanted. Very close to Snowshoe Mountain for dining and activities. The listing states that a caretaker lives on site in a separate unit and I assumed it was a separate house or trailer but the caretaker stays in the basement of the cabin. This wasn’t an issue for us, just wanted to make sure others knew someone would be staying below them.

  • Great area but the cabin is tired and misrepresented.

    3/5

    The cabin is in a great area, private, peaceful, and conveniently located. Unfortunately, all of the furniture including the beds are extremely uncomfortable. The cabin is listed at 1500 sq feet but measures out to 940 sq ft, ( I contacted the host about this but never received a response.) There is no place to store your clothing, look at the pics and you will see no closets, wardrobes, nightstands, or dressers. the upstairs bedroom is only cooled by a window A/C unit. The firepit is awesome but it is located at the far end of the property and requires you to walk across knee-high uncut grass while carrying your own seating, the bench shown in the pictures is now used to prevent you from driving too close to the house while unloading. The ad mentions the possibility of a cohost being on the property while you are there but it appears he lives there full time in the basement. The hot tub is great after a long day but the host warns that the water may stain your clothing since it comes from an on-site well. The kitchen has all the basics you need to eat in and the internet was pretty good for WV. We loved the area and will probably come back to Snowshoe but we wont be staying here again.

    Manager's Response:

    Hi David, we're glad you enjoyed your visit to the Snowshoe area! We take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following: A positive guest experience is highly important to us.

    - Our listing accurately shows the size of the cabin for guests to view. It is also fully disclosed that the co-host lives on the property. In communication with you via text, we also stated that we can confirm when he gets home if he can provide you with some trash bags. The hot tub is also explained in the listing as well as in your welcome email that it does not cause stains but rather this comes from well water.

    - For added amenities, the unit has more storage to provide for guest use. In providing more guest comfort, we are replacing the couch and chair. Mattress taste is subjective and we have never received any complaints about this in the past however, we apologize that this specific mattress did not suit your personal preferences. Although we are in a rural area in the mountainous part of West Virginia, we confirm that the Wi-Fi is excellent.

    - The house is primarily a ski cabin and when it was built, the central AC was not designed for the upstairs space. Provided in the home is a window AC, a large ceiling fan and an additional oscillating fan for the upstairs.

    - The cabin is located on 2 acres in the mountains of West Virginia. It has been an extremely wet Summer and challenging to maintain the grass due to the unusual amount of rain we have received.

    - On the porch, there are two extra chairs for use by the fire pit. The snowboard bench has been placed there to help maintain the integrity of the driveway and prevent people from hitting the porch and the walk. It is about a 4-5 foot distance from where you can pull your car up to the back deck for convenient loading and unloading.

    We have had great reviews from our guests who note we provide information, ideas, hints, and discounts to local establishments nearby. We send every guest an email, attach extra information and text them before each stay. We encourage guests to reach out to us while they are in residence with any issues so that we can address any concerns quickly for a most comfortable stay. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
