About this property
New River Gorge Home | Fire Pit, Fenced Yard | Pet-Friendly Basecamp, WV
Entire home. 3 bedrooms. Sleeps up to 8 (ideal for 4–6). Fully fenced yard. Fire pit. Pet-friendly. 10–15 minutes from New River Gorge National Park in Oak Hill, West Virginia. This is a private, whole-home rental — no shared spaces, no other guests on the property. You have the entire house, the full yard, and everything in it from check-in to checkout.
Your gorge basecamp.
You pull in, unload, and the fully fenced yard is already waiting. The fire pit's out back. The kitchen's stocked. ACE is ten minutes away, the bridge is fifteen, and you don't have to think about anything else until tomorrow. Day one is easy. Let it be easy.
THE HOME
Three bedrooms, four beds — enough for everyone to have their own space and close the door. This home is ideal for groups of 4–6 and can accommodate up to 8 for groups comfortable sharing one bathroom. The layout works well — the space just works best when it's not at full capacity.
Bedroom 1 (Primary): Queen bed, blackout curtains — the room you want after a full day on the river.
Bedroom 2: Two queen beds, great natural light — right for two couples or a family that doesn't share well.
Bedroom 3: Queen bed, its own corner of the house. Beds are made up with fresh linens before every stay.
THE BATH
One spacious, renovated full bath — clean, well-lit, and stocked with fresh towels and essentials for every stay.
THE KITCHEN
Fully equipped for real meals — not just coffee and takeout. Drip coffee maker, French press, ground coffee ready to go, full set of cookware, bakeware, dishes, glasses, and utensils. Enough counter space for a group to cook together. Start the day with breakfast before heading to the gorge; come back and grill dinner in the yard.
THE LIVING SPACE
Open-concept living and dining — the layout that works for groups and families. Smart TV with streaming, fast WiFi, books, and board games for slower evenings after a full day outdoors.
THE OUTDOOR SPACE
The fully fenced yard is the centerpiece of this property. String lights on the deck. Fire pit in the yard. Charcoal grill. Outdoor seating. The fence makes this one of the most practical outdoor spaces in the area for families with children and guests traveling with dogs — contained, safe, and ready to use from the moment you arrive.
Most groups find their way outside within an hour of arriving and stay longer than they planned — and honestly, I get it. There's something about this yard at night with the fire going and no particular reason to go back inside.
If it's just the two of you — fire lit, no agenda, the gorge fifteen minutes away tomorrow — this is the version of the trip you'll want to come back for.
TRAVELING WITH DOGS
Dogs are welcome here — but I require prior approval before you book, so please message me first before completing your reservation. Pet fee is $40 per dog per night, max 2 dogs (this transaction is billed separately once your reservation has been confirmed; it is not included in your booking total). A dog bowl, a water bowl, and pet blankets are ready when you arrive.
The yard is fully fenced, with one section that runs a little lower than the rest — most dogs are completely fine with it, but if yours is a jumper or under 15 lbs, plan on supervised yard time rather than leaving them out unsupervised. Not sure if your dog qualifies? Just message me — we'll figure it out.
Where you are.
10 min → ACE Adventure Resort (whitewater rafting, zip lines, climbing, waterpark) 10 min → Downtown Fayetteville, WV (Pies & Pints, Cathedral Café, Court Street) 15 min → Canyon Rim Visitor Center & the New River Gorge Bridge 12 min → Long Point Trailhead (best bridge views in the national park) 35 min → Summersville Lake (swimming, kayaking, scuba) 30 min → Winterplace Ski Resort 6 min → Grants Supermarket · 12 min → Kroger
You're ten minutes from the gorge and six minutes from a grocery store. That combination is rarer than it sounds. Before you arrive.
Message me. I'll send you a cut of the local guide tailored to how your group likes to trip — hikes by difficulty, restaurants by vibe, and the spots that don't show up on any list. The full guide is mounted in the kitchen when you get there.
Check the calendar and pick your weekend. It fills faster than you'd think.

The home was absolutely beautiful and perfect location to New River Gorge and all the things we wanted to do in the area (roughly 10-15min). Our host was very responsive and gave great suggestions for local places to eat and things to do that weren’t originally on our list.

Thank you, Erica, for the wonderful review! I'm so glad to hear that you found our home beautiful and in a perfect location to explore New River Gorge and all the fun activities in the area. I'm happy that I could be helpful and provide you with great suggestions for local restaurants and other things to do. Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another memorable experience in the future.
Quiet neighborhood conveniently located to New River Gorge National Park and some great mountain biking trails. Enjoyed the small town of Fayetteville.
Comfortable beds and a big yard which is nice for people staying with dogs. The dog blanket for the couch and biscuits were a nice touch.
This house works very well for my family.
The inside of the house was very nice. The outside could use some landscaping. Barking dogs affected sleep, although the house provided earplugs and white noise machines.
The owner was very responsive and checked in with us.
Had a great stay here! The house is very nice. The large fenced-in yard was perfect for one of our two dogs. The red tick beagle would have been able to jump the fence in the back so we kept him on a leash. The owner provided a lot of great information about the area. We hiked several trails in the New River Gorge and enjoyed going to the local coffee shops and restaurants.
The house was very neat and clean upon arrival. The property owner was quick to respond to inquiries and the guide that she provided was spot on relative to activities and food. The convenience of the location being near Ace Adventure (hiking and white water rafting) was a big bonus. The trip to Fayetteville was convenient and easy access to all trails! I took my two teenagers; and we all survived - great location with great outdoor activities! Hope to return next year!
We visited New River Gorge for a few days. Oak Hill was the perfect place to stay to visit Canyon Rim Vistitor Center and hike Long Point The Endless Wall Trails and drive down Fayette Station Road to the bottom on the bridge. We also went whitewater rafting at ACE Adveture Resort which was aboit a 14 minute drive away. On on drive to Oak Hill, we stopped at Standstone Falls and Grandview. The house is gorgeous. I felt like I was staying in Joanna Gaines' Hearth & Hand aisle at Target! Added bonus was a neighborhood dog nicknamed "the mayor" who would come see us and my teens loved it!

About the host
Hosted by Elizabeth Morton
I'm Elizabeth Morton — a local since 2013, a host since 2018, and an interior designer. I moved to the Fayetteville area because I fell in love with New River Gorge, and I've spent the last decade learning every trail, every restaurant, and every worth-knowing detail about this place.
The Gorge Getaway is one of three homes I own and host in the Fayetteville area. I designed each one with the same intention: comfortable, functional, and suited to the people who stay here. Not a flip with new paint and generic furniture — a home that works for how people actually travel.
I'm easy to reach before, during, and after your stay. Message me before you arrive, and I'll send a personalized cut of my local guide — hikes by difficulty, restaurants by vibe, and the spots that don't show up on any list. The full version is in the kitchen when you get there.
Over 84 five-star reviews across platforms and counting. The guests who keep coming back are the ones I'm most proud of.
Why they chose this property
Three things make the Gorge Getaway different from comparable rentals in this market.
First, the yard. A fully fenced yard — genuinely contained, with room to move — is rare at this price point near New River Gorge. For families with children or guests traveling with dogs, this is the detail that changes the trip. You don't have to watch the door every time someone steps outside.
Second, the location. Ten minutes to ACE Adventure Resort. Ten to downtown Fayetteville. Fifteen to the New River Gorge Bridge. Six minutes to Grants Supermarket. You can do everything the gorge has to offer and still be back at the fire pit by dinner. That combination is rarer than it sounds.
Third, the host. I'm not a remote property manager — I'm a local who has lived here since 2013 and knows this area the way a local does. Every guest gets access to my local guide: the spots worth doing, the hikes that match your group's ability, and the restaurants that don't require a two-hour wait on a Saturday night.
This is a whole-home rental. No shared spaces. No other guests. The house, the yard, and everything in it is yours from check-in to checkout.
