If you are looking for a winter
weekend getaway, or a nice cozy place to hibernate for a
few days, Hillbilly Haven cabins in Lewis County offer
warm wooden spaces with gas fireplaces and snug settings
for two to eight people.
Located just one mile off Interstate
79, Exit 91, south on US 19, Hillbilly Haven Log Cabin
Rentals is situated on 47 acres, with five cabins
nestled in the hollow, and two specialty cabins, Just
for Two and Almost Heaven, set on the
hillside above.
Those who lodge in the cabins in
summer can enjoy the nearby Stonewall Jackson Lake and
Stonewall Resort, where visitors have an Arnold Palmer
Signature Golf Course. Prime fishing, hunting, hiking,
biking, and all water sports are available nearby. For
persons interested in history, Bulltown Historic Area
and Jackson's Mill are nearby.
But for winter, Hillbilly Haven
cabins are the perfect place to tuck yourselves in to
enjoy a romantic weekend, a winter reunion, or just a
quiet place to relax and get some rest. Escape to a
place where there are no phones (unless you bring one),
and no interruptions; just the fabulous comfort of a
country setting.
All of the cabins have a full kitchen
and bath, air conditioning, gas fireplace, microwave,
satellite television, and a vcr or dvd player. There’s
no need to pack cookware, towels or plates and utensils,
toaster, coffee maker or even coffee filters. Each cabin
comes with these amenities. In fact, you could simply
pack a change of clothes and in less than two hours, be
tucked away in a place where the world can’t find you.
Cabins 1, 2 and 4 sleep four people
comfortably, with two twin beds up the ladder in the
loft, and a full bed downstairs. Living and kitchen
space is limited however, the television can be seen
from both levels and the lofts have plenty of room for
kid’s play. Cabin 1 and 2 are set along a man-made pond,
that ripples in the wind. Pets are permitted only in
Cabin 1.
Cabin 3 will sleep six, with a queen
bed downstairs and two full beds up the staircase. Cabin
3 has a private hot tub on the patio, and a two-person
whirlpool tub. Also, this cabin has a dishwasher, and
washer and dryer - great features if you are planning an
extended stay. Cabin 3 is handicapped accessible.
Cabin 5 will also sleep six, with a
king-size bed downstairs, and two full beds up the
stairs. Cabin 5 has a private hot tub on the deck, and a
whirlpool tub in the bathroom. This cabin is the
furthest in the hollow, more secluded and private than
cabins 1 through 4.
The Just for Two cabin has one
full bed, and a private hot tub on the patio overlooking
the West Virginia hills. This cabin has prime privacy,
and the view alone is calming and comforting. This cabin
is great for a writer’s getaway as well, as Just for
Two can also be perfect just for one.
The Almost Heaven cabin, on
the other hand, is the place for the whole family. With
two full beds, two twin beds, and a queen-size water
bed, this cabin will sleep eight people comfortably. The
eight-person hot tub on the back porch overlooks a
well-stocked pond. The cabin has two living rooms, one
upstairs and one downstairs, and two bathrooms. The
downstairs bath has an old-fashioned tub, while the
upstairs bath has a shower.
You can bring your own groceries and
drinks, or take a short walk through the woods to Midway
Mart Convenience Store, stocked with everything you will
need including groceries, hot food, drinks, an ATM, West
Virginia souvenirs, gifts, novelties, firewood, West
Virginia Wine and more.
Or, if you don’t feel like cooking,
visit Stillwaters Restaurant at Stonewall Resort - one
of the finest restaurants around Gas grills are
available for those who are willing to grill out in the
cold.
