Rose River Cottage is a gem! The outdoor spaces are so nice and the fenced in yard was a treat for our pup that you don’t find at many properties. Beth is a great host; she promptly responded to all questions and really wanted to be sure we had all the comforts and amenities we wanted or needed. We visited the area with the purpose of going to New River Gorge National Park. The drive there from the cottage was beautiful not too far with several nice waterfalls along the way. Train lovers will also love this cottage as many of them passed on the other side of the River.

This is a must stay property. We loved celebrating our anniversary here. So peaceful and so accommodating. The host was in contact with me to make sure we arrived safely and if there was anything we needed. We have rented cabins in the past and I have to say this is at the top of our list. Highly highly recommend. Everything you need is there.

We had an amazing stay at the River Cottage. Definitely will come back again. It was the best place in Boomer West Va to vacation. The Falls were beautiful. So many things to do and not far to go to. Try out The New Place for the best fried bologna sandwich. From Kayaking, ATV, to Ziplines. Tudor’s Biscuit World is Yummy too.The Historic Ferris Inn has great food too as well as a kayak lunch area down the road to kayak at the falls. Beth was an amazing host and always available if you needed anything.

The house was stocked with everything you would need for your stay. Most of our time at the house was spent out on the porch taking in the view or casting a line into the river from the dock below.

About the host

Hosted by Beth Fish

Host profile image
I am a local small business owner who loves to serve my community and travel. I've enjoyed staying at other short term rentals so much that I decided to host one myself when the opportunity presented itself. I am approaching the end of my first year of hosting and I now know that this is definitely my passion. I believe you will feel welcome and at home in our little piece of heaven, on the Kanawha River, here in southern WV!

Why they chose this property

Rose River Cottage was my late mother's primary residence. She loved to sit on the porch and admire the beautiful river and majestic mountains. I couldn't bare to sell it after she passed in 2020, so I am sharing it with friends like you! We keep a weekend open every month to gather as a family and enjoy the space. I think you will feel the sense of family when you visit. We hope to host you soon!

What makes this property unique

We are uniquely situated right between the state's capitol and the country's newest National Park. Not only that, but we are directly on the Kanawha River. The house is in a tight knit, sleepy residential area, but it faces the river so you feel more secluded than you actually are.
