This place was awesome except for you might want some light dinner music playing in the background.

Overall wonderful experience! The glamping dome was cozy and clean with a well functioning AC unit and comfortable bed. Breakfast was a delicious quiche with sausage, potatoes, and an orange. I was just expecting a typical scrambled egg or waffle but I was pleasantly surprised with the offerings. Great stay for couples!

What a nice find. We've been to West Virginia for years with family roots. When this property showed up or Hotels.com, it was a pleasant surprise. Very quaint and cozy on a quiet street on the banks of the Elk River in Braxton Co., WV. Called to check on us as we were running late, offered to hold the Cafe open for dinner. Escorted to your room. The history of it's old period construction with new touches is really cool. Bed comfy, quiet night. We intend to stay again.
