Charismatic 4-bedroom home on the New River

The Big House is located in the New River Gorge National Park, the newest national park. There is access to Sandstone Landing's patio alongside the New River. It is a fully furnished home with outdoor seating, a fire pit, and a beautiful view of the river. It is a great starting point for exploring all the beautiful sites and attractions that southern West Virginia and the New River Gorge have to offer.
To get to the home, you will go across railroad tracks. It is in a small, friendly neighborhood. You can walk to Sandstone General Store and Eatery to get any necessities you may have forgotten for your trip or get a meal.
If you plan to fish, there is also a bait and tackle store. Be sure to have a WV fishing license to be able to fish, though. The sandstone boat launch is within walking distance of the house.
An extra that we provide our guests is access to the Sandstone Landings patio on the river, this is a shared space with our Sandstone Landings guests. It is just a short walk from the home. The upper level of the patio is equipped with a dining table and chairs. Lower level of patio has outdoor furniture to enjoy the river view or to sit in while you fish in the New River.
Please remember to add your pets to your booking if you will be bringing your furry friends with you. ($50 pet fee)Thank you :)

Great WV home
We loved this house, located on the river next to the general store. The owners are extremely welcoming. Each of my three kids had their own room, which they were thrilled about. The general store had fantastic breakfasts and desserts. The house is right down the road from one of the national park visitors centers. It is not the main visitors center but had very good interactive exhibits that my teens enjoyed. If you are a light sleeper, I recommend packing ear plugs. I couple times a night a train comes through; however, it was for short durations. It is well worth the brief interruptions for the view on the dock. We spent our evenings reading by the river looking at the mountains. This is a unique and special place.

Great relaxing getaway!
A few best friends from high school looked for somewhere in the center of where we all live and picked this home for our getaway. We were a little disappointed with the weather - but absolutely no disappointment with the rental. Walked into a clean and clean smelling house that was more than what was expected. From the cozy living room to the stocked kitchen to the roomy bedrooms, we truly enjoyed our stay. The wind kept us from sitting outside but loved the swing on the porch and the area down on the river to sit. There are trains that you contend with, but it really was kind of cool to watch the coal being moved along and counting the length of them. They did not wake me up at all. Thank you for allowing us to share in your home.

Beautiful older home
This place has the charm of an older home with some nice modern upgrades. The river is beautiful and the train was very relaxing believe it or not. We will definitely stay there again!

The Big House Sandstone WV
Spacious and comfortable home on the New River close to many natural attractions and snow sports. Our dog loved the fenced-in yard. There is a train that comes through fairly regularly and it is close and loud when it does. Thankfully, it is usually a short train that comes and goes quickly.

Amazing Experience
I am a demanding customer and was pleasantly surprised by the wonderful experience we had at the Big House. This is a 1920s home with character, close to the river, big/loud trains passing regularly, spacious and laid out in a way this good for gathering. We held an adult sibling retreat for 4 here and our experience was outstanding! Owners added special touches to prep the home and accomodate us, which made it extra special. Will come back.

Great visit
we made sure we visited west virginia during fall colors. The house was clean, actually appliances looked brand new. The host must have read our mind since they provided our favorite coffee, cream and sweetener. These jewels had also baked some wonderful cookies. Just ask my husband he almost ate all. The bathroom upstairs was beautiful, with a huge shower. Sure would reccommend!!!

Riverview
This rental was very nice and well kept. The check in and out process was simple and easy. It is very spacious with plenty of room for several people and has general amenities one is looking for. The only complaint is not with the house but with the location, you are less than 50 feet from train tracks which have trains go by regularly. Other than that the house was great and the location is nice otherwise

Will definitely be back. The home was absolutely beautiful and sitting at the Gazebo while my kids fished was a great time. The host responded very quickly to any questions I had and the cookies they made for us were great (we ate them all). The kids loved it and my Mother did not want to leave. I definitely recommend staying here.
