PLANNING YOUR TRIP

MOUNTAINAIRE  has been carefully considered and created to be place where friends and family can gather to be together, slow down and reconnect, from dining al fresco to enjoying a drink around the fire. It is also a place offering so many opportunities to immerse yourself in the wilds of West Virginia and enjoy the great outdoors.   Being prepared is the best way to ensure that you can do so safely and comfortably. The cabin is fully stocked with necessities like toilet paper, linens and soaps (see list below) and also provides luxurious details such as cozy blankets, a great library, and lavender bath salts. When planning your trip, consider the time of year, and plan accordingly. Adventure and beauty are waiting for you every day of the year!

WHAT TO PACK

In addition to the normal items like clothes and toiletries, here is a list of some items you may not think of:

Food and drinks, there are local grocery stores, however, selection is very limited

Hiking boots

Bathing suit: in the winter months, enjoy the hot tub. Late April - Late September the plunge spa is open, and the river is ready!

River shoes: the river is very rocky and shoes are recommended

Insect repellant and sunblock

Fishing poles, tubes for the river

Bring your own Netflix, Prime video, etc login's as you may need this if you wish to stream online content.

A comfy robe, especially in the winter, making it easier to shower before using the hot tub

Charging adapters for your personal devices

Bottled water for drinking:  Our cabin uses well water, and has a tendency to have a high iron content.  We do have an iron filter in place, which takes care of it for the most part, but it does sometimes look a little yellow after heavy rain.  The water from the fridge is additionally filtered and safe to drink, but it sometimes has a slight metallic taste.

SNOW / ICE IN THE WINTER MONTHS

Please be advised that we are located in a fairly remote area, and even the State roads are not always plowed and salted immediately. We strongly recommend 4WD vehicles when inclement weather is likely. The last mile is a well maintained gravel road, and during regular weather conditions, non-4WD vehicles have no issues with access, however, when there is ice or snow, access can be challenging. We do have a "snow plowing" service that plows when we get more than 4" of snow.
