Stay at a Hidden-Away Treehouse Rental in West Virginia

No West Virginia getaway is complete without ample time in the great outdoors, so why not plan to sleep among the treetops? Well, we have just the perfect place for you!

Book a stay at the Gauley River Treehouse, and this is the exact experience you can look forward to. A breathtaking modern cabin that's elevated among the hardwoods, this Airbnb offers guests the feeling of being completely immersed in the woods.

Nestled in the forest just 15 minutes from the New River Gorge National Park, the Gauley River Treehouse offers everything you're looking for from a West Virginia vacation: rest, relaxation, views, and, of course, lots of adventure. The cabin can accommodate up to six guests. There are two bedrooms, three beds, and one full bath. Although it's a small space, the modern, creative design allows for a feeling of spaciousness. Ample windows bring the woods inside, and light walls reflect that beautiful natural light.

The kitchen is equipped with everything you'll need for your stay. Use the coffee maker to enjoy a fresh brew on the deck in the morning. If you listen closely, you can hear the rushing rapids of the Gauley River right from the porch. Or cozy up in the living room as you plan your day — there's so much to see and do in the area!

The cabin is located in Boulder Trail, which offers 100 acres of land and a private trail system. You'll also be just five minutes from Summersville Lake and less than 20 minutes from the New River Gorge. Rafting enthusiasts will also love the chance to plunge down waterfalls and rapids along the Gauley. Our advice? Book a few nights so that you have time to take advantage of all this adventure-filled region offers.

When you return to your Airbnb, you'll love the opportunity to sit outside by the fire pit or even soak in your private hot tub under the stars. When you're ready for a solid night of sleep, each bedroom is outfitted with comfortable linens to ensure quality rest. I especially love the lofted area, with two queen beds and a skylight. While some lofted sleeping areas can seem confined, this one feels like a creative blend of a balcony and a bedroom, giving you that true treehouse experience.

One recent enthusiastic review seems to embody the unique setting and beautiful cabin conditions: "Absolutely gorgeous place with great sunset and sunrise views from in and around the house. Extremely well kept and clean, plenty to cook within the kitchen, amazing shower, and if you walk outside and down the road, you’re heading right onto some awesome trails."
