West Virginia is more than enough proof that you don’t need oceanfrontage to enjoy a fantastic waterfront vacation. We love a good river house vacation rental for making summer memories here in Appalachia, and here are six waterfront Airbnbs that fit the bill (all guest favorites!) right here in Almost Heaven, West Virginia.
You'll love all the little details this three-bedroom Wheeling Island getaway with space for up to eight has to offer, all the way down to the fishing poles tucked under the back porch!
Perched on the Greenbrier River, this cozy little River House cabin is located just downstream from a WVDNR Trout Stock Point AND it comes with fishing poles! And 200 feet of river frontage. And beautiful mountain views. And board games and yard games and a DVD library.
Steps from the Buckhannon River, this rustic but cozy little cottage is a true waterfront retreat. It features a unique setup (the third bedroom is detached from the main house for additional privacy), and kayaks are available upon request.
This small cabin can still fit a crowd, and it's pet-friendly. It's a great home base for exploring nearby Audra State Park, or spend all your time right here enjoying your own slice of private riverfront (tubes and other floats provided!).
If you want a taste of wild, wonderful West Virginia, here it is. Enjoy the pristine, quiet beauty of this cabin tucked away from it all on the Little Kanawha River, yet only minutes from Holly River State Park.
This house comes with a private beach right on the Tygart River. And that's not all: the house comes with two canoes, a kayak, inflatable tubes, several kid-sized life vests, tiki torches, a fire pit, cornhole boards, and a youth rock climbing wall. This is outdoor recreation at its finest, all just steps from your home-away-from-home's door.
Which of these waterfront Airbnbs in wild, wonderful West Virginia caught your eye? We think any one of them sounds like the perfect warm weather vacation this summer!
