5 Trending Rentals in West Virginia That People Book on Repeat (And We See Why)

West Virginia locals have always known that the Mountain State is the perfect vacation destination. But more and more people are catching on—as life gets busier, the mountains become all the more appealing. The following is a list of spectacular Airbnbs in West Virginia that not only have stellar reviews, but they actually live up to their hype. My bet is that you'll be packing your bags in no time!

1. The Eagle's Nest, Great Cacapon

With enough space for six guests and eight acres of private wooded land, the Eagle's Nest in Great Cacapon is tailor-made for a slowed-down getaway. Whether you're relaxing out on the expansive deck or cozied up inside with a good book, you'll feel worlds away from your daily routine. Inside, you'll find a traditional cabin aesthetic, with wood-paneled walls, lots of comfortable seating, a dining table under an antler chandelier, and a fully equipped kitchen. But the amenities don't stop there; you'll also find a dedicated game room, the perfect place to spend a rainy day. At night, enjoy a sky full of stars or a great conversation around the fire pit.

2. Mountain Retreat, Lost City

If urban life is weighing on you a little too heavily, I've found the perfect antidote: a mountain retreat in Lost City. Set on five private acres with a panoramic view of the mountains, this beautiful cabin offers three bedrooms and three baths. In the warm-weather months, between June and September, take a dip in the private pool. In the winter, soak in the hot tub with stunning mountain views. There's really no wrong way to relax here! One recent review highlights why this is such a bookable Airbnb: This was my second time staying here, and it won’t be my last. Love everything about this place. The rear deck is perfect."

3. The Woodland House, Pendleton County

Not far from some of the state's top attractions, including Spruce Knob and Seneca Rocks, the Woodland House is a fresh, updated mountain escape that will quickly feel like your home away from home. It's got two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, perfect for up to four travelers. The house is tucked away in a residential area, but it's surrounded by woods with the mountains nearby. And you'll love the view from the back porch—it feels like you're in your own private treehouse!

4. The Ridge at Serà, Wardensville

As stated on the Airbnb listing, the Ridge at Serà is "thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in." It's completely surrounded by the George Washington National Forest, giving guests the feeling of being totally immersed in nature during their stay. The modern cabin features two bedrooms and two baths, with enough space for five guests. I love the sleek, organic interior design. It's fresh and contemporary, but doesn't sacrifice any of that homey feeling I look for in a cabin. Other luxe amenities include an outdoor sauna and shower, plus private walking trails throughout the property.

5. Ascent at Lost River, Lost City

Your jaw may quite possibly drop when you first see the view from Ascent at Lost River. With over 100 five-star reviews, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom cabin is best suited for four travelers. One of the bedrooms is located in the loft, accessible via a ladder. The cabin is situated near some of West Virginia's most popular natural attractions, including Blackwater Falls State Park and Cacapon Resort State Park. But no one could blame you for staying put for your entire stay—the mountain views from the porch are that stunning.
