In 2008, we built the first cabin on this property. We really enjoyed hosting guests so we built two more cabins on the same property! Our latest addition is a glamping tent! We love people and find joy in the mission of giving weary travelers a comfortable place in nature to relax and rejuvenate. Life gets pretty taxing at times, we know! Spending time in nature with a loved one is the perfect medicine for a stressed soul. We have two listings available: Cozy Cottage by Monongahela Forest and What Camping Should Be! Please read each individual site description for more information on each site and their amenities.

Canvas tent · Sleeps 2

This is what camping should be like! Slumbering in a comfy queen bed (NOT the hard ground). Sleeping in a tent that doesn’t leak! Not having to set up your own tent. Having a private campsite with your own bathroom facilities (who else doesn't like public bathrooms?) The tent is situated among some cedars in a meadow overlooking the North Mountain Range. At night, you'll have an excellent view of the stars. If you like adventure, the outdoors, and new things, this place is for you! The area also offers many opportunities for adventure— hiking, rock climbing, zip-lining, exploring caves, viewing waterfalls, stargazing, and more! It is a 3-minute walk from the parking area to the tent. You MUST READ the check-in instructions very carefully before you come (we will send them 2 days before arrival). Otherwise, you may get lost in the woods. If you are sure to READ AND FOLLOW our instructions, you will find check-in to be quite easy. Amenities? Queen bed, mini-fridge, electric lights, outhouse, outdoor shower, outdoor propane stove, fire pit, picnic table, all your bedding, towels and washcloths, 6 gallons of nonpotable water (you can walk to the hydrant for more- it’s a 5 min walk), an electric fireplace for heat, and an AMAZING view. We will have instructions for using the shower, using the outhouse (don’t worry, it’s just a few instructions), making a campfire, etc. in the tent. The tent is situated in a meadow overlooking the mountains- You can see Nelson Rocks from the yard. No other dwellings or vacation cabins can be seen from the tent when the leaves are on the trees. We have 3 other cabins in the area, but they cannot be seen from the tent. Local attractions you may want to research before you come: Seneca Rocks, Spruce Knob, Nelson Rocks, Seneca Caverns, North Fork Mountain Trail, Gaudineer Scenic Area, Blackwater Falls, Elakala Falls, Davis and Thomas, Douglas Falls, Mountain Rail, Dolly Sods, Canaan Valley, etc! We have been getting people outside for 14 years now with our vacation cabins. However, this is our first glamping tent. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you have. That will help us know what we should be adding to our description!

Cabin · Sleeps 2

This cozy cottage is a simple yet fully finished cabin nestled in the woods of Spruce Mountain. It is a perfect launchpad for exploring many nearby hiking trails and awesome views! Crisp early mornings are best spent on the front porch with a steaming cup of coffee. Then head out for the day to explore all the wild and wonderful-- Spruce Knob, Seneca Rocks, Nelson Rocks, Blackwater Falls, Seneca Caverns, and more! Our guests love coming "home" to a cozy campfire with s'mores, or perhaps grilled steaks and Brussel sprouts on the grill, after an exhilarating day of exploring the mountains. The cabin sleeps 2 guests with a queen bed in the bedroom and a sofa bed in the living area. The full bath is appointed with fresh linens, hot water, basic soaps, and toilet paper. The kitchenette has all you will need to put together your own meals- a single burner hotplate, microwave, under-counter frig, 4-cup coffee pot, and basic cooking and eating utensils and dishes. However, if you prefer not to cook on your vacation, the Gateway Family Restaurant only three miles from the cabin offers delicious food at reasonable prices. Outdoor amenities include a firepit, a park-style charcoal grill, a picnic table, and a front porch! Nearby... a Forest Service Road runs past this cabin. We also have two other cabins that can be seen through the trees. Keep in mind that phone service is limited to nonexistent here-- you can completely get away from everything, unwind, and rejuvenate in nature!! However, you will have WiFi at the cabin. If you come in winter months, we recommend bringing AWD/4WD.

Glamping Cabin w/ WiFi + AC

This was a great cabin to have in such a remote location, located within minutes of all of the wilderness one could desire. If you are visiting Seneca Rocks, Spruce Knob or anything else in the area I would recommend staying here.

Glamping at its best!

What Camping Should Be! + WOW views

This place was fantastic. The tent was very clean and incredibly comfortable and romantic. The directions to get there were very easy to follow, and the views!! The toilet was clean, not the best composting toilet system IMO, but it didn’t smell and served its purpose. We will absolutely be booking again in the future.

If you’re looking for the camping luxury but don’t want to bring all the supplies and pitch tent, this is your place! We enjoyed the lovely sunsets (magnificent view btw) & ended with a good campfire. Tons of milkweed growing in the fields, butterflies were everywhere it was magical! After a long day of hiking at Seneca, & Spruce Knob the shower bag was a luxury! A great place, wonderful time.

What Camping Should Be! + WOW views

I cannot say how thankful I am to the owners of this property! They bring a first class operation from head to toe! We love this site, the area, and the people! Perfect place to unwind and relax! Unfortunately while we were in the mountains our car was giving us trouble (a car that is notoriously tough to work/ get parts for). I didn’t know what to do because our cell reception was a bit spotty at the time and I didn’t have AAA. But the owners were quick to respond and advised that I turn on WiFi calling to be able to make clear phone calls. Then they recommended their mechanic to fix my car, but I couldn’t get my car to his shop so the mechanic referred me to a towing company who showed up so fast! The mechanic ordered the part that day and then by noon the next day we were back on the road, a 24 hour turn around! This was nice because we were going out hiking and fishing every day so not having our car really forced us to stay out at the campsite and enjoy our surroundings which was something that we really needed, although we probably wouldn’t have had the pleasure of doing so unless our car broke down hahaha! Thank you so much Kent, Cynthia, and Marissa! Can’t wait to return!!

Amazing experience, beautiful surroundings/ views, perfect tent! Seriously nicer than some city apartments! 10/10 highly recommend! Can’t wait to get home and tell everyone! Tons of things to do in the area! Great wilderness retreat, wish I would have booked it for a longer stay! Also if you stay here I would have your activities planned out with directions printed ahead of time, or bring a map!

What an incredible experience! This place exceeded any expectations we had and provided us with the most thorough instructions to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The bathroom was very clean, everything was very well thought out and made our vacation an unforgettable favorite! Definitely turn off the lights to check out the beautiful night sky and shooting stars! Thank you Kent, Cynthia, and Marissa !

Beautiful and Cozy

What Camping Should Be! + WOW views

I spent two nights in late October and it rained the entire time—literally, the entire time. Despite this, I had a wonderful experience. The wood stove keeps the tent cozy and warm and it is beautiful and clean and incredibly comfortable inside. And even in the rain, the area is peaceful and beautiful. The hosts were really nice and brought me extra firewood when I needed it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants some of the camping experience without the hardship.
