No one greeted us and the front door was locked. We had to call and then Tim greeted us and was very nice. The breakfast was terrible. The muffins were in a package dated two weeks prior. Two of the three mills in the frig were outdated. Most of the food in the frig was outdated. There were a few oranges on the breakfast table. We didn’t see any other guests even though Tim said the place was booked. The rooms were lovely as was the overall establishment decor. The internet wasn’t very good but we’re finding that typical in West Virginia this far.

Very clean, right beside river, quiet, and mattress was a 10/10 comfortable. Room even came with soaps, tooth brushes/paste, and lotions, everything you'd ever need for a nice trip. The only thing I would have added to room would be a small personal refrigerator for left over foods or deli meat to make sandwiches or food. Eating out constantly gets expensive.

The River House Lodge is charming, unique, and very comfortable! The owner was also wonderfully accommodating of my late arrival. Would love to stay there again.

Unique lodge
Loved the historic nature of the property. Antique items and original woodworking etc made it a very unique location. The pictures are a bit deceiving and make this look like a large mountain lodge (one even with a pool, though that is not listed as an amenity) but it is just a three story home. But that was fine, the only major issue was that they used window AC to cool the rooms. Our two rooms were very hot and the window ACs took a long time to make the temperature bearable. It did cool off nicely around 2am. Breakfast wasn’t much, not many options and nothing of a low carb variety. Wasn’t too concerned about until we realized there was literally no where to get anything to eat between the lodge and Camp Dawson. (Should have ate the muffin!) can’t really speak to the friendliness of the staff as I never met any during my entire stay (we had a late check in) But we had everything we needed so I have no complaints (except there was no hair dryer, it had one listed so my wife didn’t bring hers.) It’s no Ritz Carleton so don’t go expecting that, but it is a very neat place that you will remember years down the road (unlike a Comfort Inn!)

This quaint little town is perfectly quiet. If you’re looking to get away from everything. Only drawback is no cellular service but that’s most of the area. The best b&b I’ve ever seen.

The lodge was nice and clean. Only downside was being on the 3rd floor, no AC (window unit was in a closit but not put in) an only 1 of the 3 small window's had a screen to open.

Lovely place to stay if you prefer unique experiences and not the chain hotels that all look and feel alike. This is a very nicely restored historical building, full of fascinating details. We got a very nice room, where the only negative point could be the bathroom door that didn't want to stay closed. There was no TV in the room, which was big plus in our eyes. Be prepared for trains passing the town (and making some noise). However, it's part of this historical place. If you rely on local eateries, then go early - i.e. before 7pm. A very friendly owner who kindly instructed to drive beautiful roads. If you prefer to stay in modern standardized hotels/motels then this place is not for you.
