Cabins near Harrisville, West Virginia

Cabins near Harrisville, West Virginia
Called the "Mountain State," West Virginia is a rock climber's paradise thanks to the craggy peaks of the Appalachian Mountains. Harrisville is in the northwestern part of the state, just four-and-a-half miles from North Bend State Park. This park offers a superb 72-mile trail system with hiking, mountain biking and a slew of abandoned railway tunnels. The park rents mountain bikes to help you get out and enjoy the scenery. If you don't want to stay in the park, cabin lodging also is available in nearby Cairo and the surrounding area.

North Bend State Park

Nestled in the woody seclusion of North Bend State Park, these nine rental cabins offer a convenient place to hike the park's white pine forest, or cuddle up in front of a fireplace. All nine cedar cabins are placed on a scenic ridge, so available hiking trails are a given. Choose a cabin with two, three or four bedrooms, each with central air and heat, full kitchens and bathrooms, and all the linens, dinnerware and cookware you'll need. Some of the cabins are approved for pets, and you must specify if you'll be bringing one when you make reservations. During the summer tourist season, there is a one-week minimum rental for these cabins.

Log House Homestead Bed & Breakfast

Also located in nearby Cairo, this quaint bed-and-breakfast establishment is housed in a two-story log cabin, reminiscent of the type built by settlers of the early 1800s. The owners have taken care to make it look and feel like a real settler's cabin, from the native hardwoods used in its construction to the handmade wall sconces and iron door straps. The living and dining area is downstairs, with two bedrooms and a half-bath upstairs. You have to venture down to the cellar to find a kitchenette and full bath with Jacuzzi tub. The cabin overlooks a private pond, and it's just a quarter mile from the North Bend Rail Trail.
