Cheat River Lodge

Stayed here for a couple days two years ago. Out in the middle of nature was very beautiful. The cabins could be updated but were not bad. My only complaint was the animals in the wall that kept us up. I do understand were out in the mountains but they should take care of the critters where people sleep. So if you like luxury resorts its not the place for you, but if you like the wilderness and great view its great.

We stayed in the «Big Poplar» cabin. The cabin is very nice and in decent shape. The location, if you are looking for seclusion, is wonderful. The Cheat River is a few feet from the back deck.
Elkins is just minutes away for groceries, fuel and restaurants.
The cabin is a little over an hour from Dolly Sods and Seneca Creek. It is not air conditioned which wasn’t a concern during our stay. The kitchen and bath are adequate. Bring charcoal if you want to grill. The place was mostly clean with some spider webs here and there and a bit of dust. Nothing I wouldn’t expect to find in a log cabin in the woods next to the river. We felt comfortable there.
The staff we met were very friendly. The maintenance man gave us some frozen trout since we didn’t bring any fishing gear. If you read this, btw, they were delicious.
Our stay was very nice and we wouldn’t have any problem with a repeat visit.
