Reading through some of the other reviews here, it's clear that any of the issues folks have had could have been avoided if they’d just read the info that was given to them. A group of 16 of us booked for the weekend and I honestly can't think of enough great things to say. Seriously, everything about this place was AMAZING! I organized the trip, so I got to work with one of the owners, Jesse, to get everything set up. He was helpful, responsive, accommodating, and really kind. I organize a lot for my friends and myself, and this was one of the easiest. Upon arrival we were checked in by the other owner, Gary, who immediately made us feel like we were at home. He gave us a wonderful tour of the property and told us everything we needed to know for a wonderful stay. This property is nestled in the hills of WV and the views are STUNNING! Every space and room is beautifully appointed, really leaning into the upscale rustic vibe you'd expect in a mountain retreat. So many beautiful nooks and crannies to sit and read or play games or just nap. The pool and hot tub are gorgeous and Logan at the pool bar will take amazing care of you! They provide a complimentary breakfast of freshly cooked eggs, meats, and biscuits/scones. The lunch and dinner menus are varied and everything we had was delicious. Our servers, Rain (spelling ??) and Angie were stellar and the ambience was just perfect. Every single one of us left feeling refreshed and we were all sad to leave. Do yourself a favor and make the trek out to Lost River and treat yourself. This place is amazing and I'm already planning my next trip here with my partner.…

The owners, Gary and Jesse, were welcoming, friendly, and clearly love their little slice of heaven in Lost River. Our cabin was decorated with the care someone would take with their home: warm, inviting, comfy full of texture; not stuffy or corporate. There are a TON of accommodations, such as a table waiting for your morning breakfast, sauna, pool, entertainment room, sitting areas with books, games, TV, hot tub, you name it! Even the friendly guests help curate the vibe. All smiles and relaxed faces, which is a testament to the oasis Gary and Jesse have created! We can't wait to stay again!

Our first visit to The Guesthouse was wonderful! We stayed in the Hobson Cabin, top floor. Gary and all staff were so welcoming and friendly, helping us to feel right at home. The views are gorgeous, and there is plenty to do on the property without needing to leave if you so choose. We played pool, watched a movie in the TV room, steamed in the sauna and overall just enjoyed the picturesque views The Guesthouse has to offer! Other guests we met were all very nice and welcoming as well, chatting and sharing things to do in the area. We hardly ran into people outside of the bar and restaurant area, which made it almost feel like we had the place to ourselves. The very best part is that my amazing boyfriend became my fiancé on the balcony overlooking the perfect mountain views! Gary was super excited for us and helped us celebrate well. We will never forget The Guesthouse and hope to return soon.…

The staff, accommodations, restaurant and surroundings could not be better. This is the perfect getaway spot in the mid-Atlantic region. I love it! The rooms are very comfortable with all the amenities you could wish for. Gary and Jesse have created the perfect spot for an event, an overnight stay, a meeting, a dinner party, or just a short visit. Don't forget to say hello to Sancho and bring him a treat!

Another lovely stay at the Guesthouse! Our last visit was 15 years ago for our first anniversary; this year’s visit was even better than we remembered. Fabulous food, gracious hosts in Gary & Jessie, and a plethora of cozy places to read, relax, and refresh. Be sure to make plans to enjoy the on-site restaurant for dinner.

Had a wonderful time at Guesthouse. Jesse and Gary are great hosts and always very accommodating. Beautiful grounds, excellent food, and I love the log cabin feel of the lounges. A great place to escape the city for a long weekend

We enjoyed a great weekend in the Hobson cabin, which was very clean, comfortable and well appointed. Like the rest of the property, it was well maintained and lovingly cared for. Jesse & Gary, as well as the whole staff, do their best to make you feel welcome. The main building has a lot of cozy communal areas to enjoy drinks and socializing. The breakfast is a fixed menu each am, but there many selections for different preferences at dinner. The staff is very accommodating to specific dietary needs. A lot of local people seem to come for dinner on Sat nights so be sure to have a reservation. The food is fresh and delicious and reasonably priced. They are very mindful of Covid 19 safety protocols. It seems perfect for couples or small groups seeking a peaceful setting.

This was my first time going to a place like this. By place like this as far as a place not full of screaming tiny humans and with an overwhelming amount of things to do. I got to relax which is something I needed. I got to experience nature, saw beautiful birds that aren't seen in my home state and saw a pack of coyotes. They also have a beautiful mini horse who is super friendly and loved the treats that Jesse gave me for him. Let's talk about Jesse and Gary the owners. They are amazing. The most surprising thing that I walked in and Gary knew who I was. I was wondering what kind of magic he had going on lol. They are both friendly and I learned so much. They answered any and all questions that I asked. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was amazing and I hope to visit again before the year ends. I am glad that I got to experience this place as Spring was starting to appear.…

The property is located in a quiet overlook near Lost River - well appointed facility and grounds - great hospitality from the moment you arrive until you leave. There are plenty of common areas to relax, read, and unplug. The owners take COVID seriously and still achieve a restful and relaxing environment. The restaurant has great food and attentive service.
