What guests think
At Paradise Cabin at Pardise in the Woods overlooking the Buckhannon River, guests consistently praise the peaceful, remote setting with river views and privacy, the very clean, comfortable cabin, and responsive hosting that makes family getaways simple and relaxing.
Many enjoy direct river access for swimming and fishing, scenic decks and fire pits, plus games like a pool table; Wi‑Fi and kitchens are reported to work well for groups. Common cautions include a rugged, steep approach road where higher-clearance or 4WD vehicles help, and a narrow spiral staircase that some found difficult, especially with children. Expect a secluded, nature-focused stay with attentive support rather than proximity to town activities.

Me, my husband, my 6 year old son, and my brother stayed at this cozy cabin. We had a great time, really enjoyed getting away and spending a peaceful time here. I loved the location, plenty of woods surrounding you with the river just in front of the cabin, across train tracks. When I saw the train tracks, I was nervous there might be loud trains going by, but there wasn’t one train the entire time we were there (it might even be a track no longer in use). The cabin itself was very clean and there’s plenty of sleeping space. We loved the fact that it had a pool table, that was one of the big selling points for us. We love pool and play often! Another thing that I loved was the play set outside, my son had fun with that. Overall, great stay and owner was awesome! Even brought us ice melt because there was a snow storm coming. We really appreciate the great experience and look forward to coming back!

Very remote, gorgeous property. I love the swing on the porch and the views from the deck. The cabin was insanely clean- like spotless. My kids loved the video game machine and the outdoor playhouse. We enjoyed walking up to the river access as well. The only thing that all six of us hated was the staircase, but I did appreciate the baby gate that was around the bottom. The host was incredibly friendly and a super communicator.

Paradise cabin at Paradise in the Woods definitely fits the name. We truly felt like we were in paradise! From the amazing views, the sound of the flowing river, and the abundance of wildlife, you will not be disappointed. We saw deer, an otter, and even a groundhog. We all enjoyed swimming in the river (especially our teenagers and dogs), fishing, playing pool, daily walks and fires in the fire pit, and just relaxing. The house was extremely clean, and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and I loved that the oven was a gas stove/oven. We did briefly lose power during our stay due to a storm, but Cheryl (the owner) immediately showed up with a generator for us to use until the power came back on. We would definitely stay here again. If it’s available, don’t think twice. Just book it!

Very pleased with our stay on the Buckhannon River. The cabin was well taken care of, very clean, and nicely laid out. Loved the deck area and the serenity. Kitchen was really well equipped. The only downside was the smell and taste of the water. I also think it would be great to have a corn hole set on site.

This was such a warm family cabin with plenty of space for all. Our family of 4 plus our dog, enjoyed a nice long weekend at this beautiful cabin. The views are stunning especially from the amazing deck across the front of the property. The rooms inside were all clean with comfortable beds. The kitchen was beautiful and had all the dishes and utensils we needed. The wood stove took a little getting used to on how often we needed to feed it, and we ran out of fire starters, but I sent a message to Cheryl brought more out to us same day! We stayed in January so we didn't get to do as much outside as we would have liked to, but the kids did get to do some exploring and even found some cool rocks as souvenirs. We were extremely sad that a winter storm warning caused us to cut our trip short, but we were a little worried we might get snowed it. The drive is very lond and downhill the entireway from the road to the cabin. We had 4 wheel drive and used it to get in and out of the property, I dont know if you could get out without if there was any kind of weather. Additionally I would advise anyone staying to be careful when choosing a rout in the area. We ran to the IGA and our GPS tried to kill us with the worst road if you could even call it that. (Again that in no way is the fault of the host, totally our fault, just a warning for other city folk like us)

If you're looking for privacy and serenity, this is the place to stay! The property is well maintained. The Buckhannon river is only a rocks throw away and the sound of the water was very calming. I am from West Virginia and know that area fairly well, but my Garmin GPS took me to this property with no issue.

We stayed at this beautiful cabin for a week. It was very private and secluded which we definitely loved. My sons loved fishing in the river. They caught several different kind of trout and some small mouth bass. It's a great place to relax and enjoy nature and the beautiful river. Cheryl was a great host. We needed the outside trash cans to be emptied before the end of our stay and Cheryl was easy to get a hold of and made sure the cans were emptied immediately. We definitely hope to return next year.

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. We loved the privacy and peacefulness of the property. The cabin itself is incredibly spacious and comfortable for large groups. Having the river so close was one of our favorite parts! Despite the weather raining us out for a few days, we still enjoyed every minute. The beds were comfortable and having a fan in every room really made a huge difference on the 90 degree days! The kitchen was also fully stocked with all the appliances and utensils we needed, everything in perfect working order. The wifi was perfect for streaming music while outside at the fire pit or on the porch. Check in and check out was a breeze, Cheryl is very helpful and responds swiftly. We would definitely stay here again!

What a beautiful place! Peaceful and relaxing. Just perfect. Really enjoyed the house, spacious and cozy. Outside is an incredible view. From a fire pit to a balcony overlooking the Buckcannon river, it has it all. You can not go wrong with this place. 4 wheel is recommended, especially in bad weather. We will be back in the fall! I’m

Views and sounds from the deck were amazing. The road into the property was narrow and bumpy, but we managed with our SUV. The photos are accurate for what to expect. Quick response to our concerns by the host. Overall very nice.

The beds were comfortable and having a fan in every room really made a huge difference on the 90 degree days! The kitchen was also fully stocked with all the appliances and utensils we needed, everything in perfect working order. The wifi was perfect for streaming music while outside at the fire pit or on the porch. Check in and check out was a breeze, Cheryl is very helpful and responds swiftly. We would definitely stay here again!

What a beautiful place! Peaceful and relaxing. Just perfect. Really enjoyed the house, spacious and cozy. Outside is an incredible view. From a fire pit to a balcony overlooking the Buckcannon river, it has it all. You can not go wrong with this place. 4 wheel is recommended, especially in bad weather. We will be back in the fall! I’m

Very remote, gorgeous property. I love the swing on the porch and the views from the deck. The cabin was insanely clean- like spotless. My kids loved the video game machine and the outdoor playhouse. We enjoyed walking up to the river access as well. The only thing that all six of us hated was the staircase, but I did appreciate the baby gate that was around the bottom. The host was incredibly friendly and a super communicator.

Paradise cabin at Paradise in the Woods definitely fits the name. We truly felt like we were in paradise! From the amazing views, the sound of the flowing river, and the abundance of wildlife, you will not be disappointed. We saw deer, an otter, and even a groundhog. We all enjoyed swimming in the river (especially our teenagers and dogs), fishing, playing pool, daily walks and fires in the fire pit, and just relaxing. The house was extremely clean, and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and I loved that the oven was a gas stove/oven. We did briefly lose power during our stay due to a storm, but Cheryl (the owner) immediately showed up with a generator for us to use until the power came back on. We would definitely stay here again. If it’s available, don’t think twice. Just book it!

We had a very nice stay at the cabin. It has plenty of room and was comfortable. I would recommend this property for people wanting a peaceful and quiet getaway. Views and sounds from the deck were amazing. The road into the property was narrow and bumpy, but we managed with our SUV. The photos are accurate for what to expect. Quick response to our concerns by the host. Overall very nice.

This was such a warm family cabin with plenty of space for all. Our family of 4 plus our dog, enjoyed a nice long weekend at this beautiful cabin. The views are stunning especially from the amazing deck across the front of the property. The rooms inside were all clean with comfortable beds. The kitchen was beautiful and had all the dishes and utensils we needed. The wood stove took a little getting used to on how often we needed to feed it, and we ran out of fire starters, but I sent a message to Cheryl brought more out to us same day! We stayed in January so we didn't get to do as much outside as we would have liked to, but the kids did get to do some exploring and even found some cool rocks as souvenirs. We were extremely sad that a winter storm warning caused us to cut our trip short, but we were a little worried we might get snowed it. The drive is very lond and downhill the entireway from the road to the cabin. We had 4 wheel drive and used it to get in and out of the property, I dont know if you could get out without if there was any kind of weather. Additionally I would advise anyone staying to be careful when choosing a rout in the area. We ran to the IGA and our GPS tried to kill us with the worst road if you could even call it that. (Again that in no way is the fault of the host, totally our fault, just a warning for other city folk like us)

We stayed at this beautiful cabin for a week. It was very private and secluded which we definitely loved. My sons loved fishing in the river. They caught several different kind of trout and some small mouth bass. It's a great place to relax and enjoy nature and the beautiful river. Cheryl was a great host. We needed the outside trash cans to be emptied before the end of our stay and Cheryl was easy to get a hold of and made sure the cans were emptied immediately. We definitely hope to return next year.

Location
The secluded riverside setting offers quiet, privacy, and mountain views. Several note the rough, steep access road and suggest higher-clearance or 4WD vehicles, and that activities and services are a long drive away.

It was exactly what I was looking for. Remote, quiet, away from the hustle & bustle. We had the property to ourselves. No nearby neighbors. It was enjoyable waking up in the chilly mornings listening to the river below & looking out at the mountains above. Our pup loved swimming in the river & exploring the property. It is very remote. Far away from activities. Expect an hour drive or so. Overall we enjoyed our stay & would love to come back in the summer with the whole family.

If you're looking for privacy and serenity, this is the place to stay! The property is well maintained. The Buckhannon river is only a rocks throw away and the sound of the water was very calming. I am from West Virginia and know that area fairly well, but my Garmin GPS took me to this property with no issue.

This is a fantastic property, other than the last half mile. The road is rocky and steep but we had no trouble driving all-wheel drive vehicles. The loft wasn’t usable but we made do with the pullouts. Great well equipped kitchen made our Thanksgiving meal a breeze. I highly recommend this place!
