Shutdown Be Damned!

Shutdown be damned! Bridge day is really happening anyway. It’s Official. “We will have Bridge Day even if the government is shut down,” said Sharon Cruikshank of the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce. Yes, it will be a little different, but who will notice? My guess is no one. All the security and traffic control […]

Cleanliness is next to…

Cleanliness is next to Ossumness! Our guests always rank cleanliness at the very top of the scale on the exit surveys— something we are very proud of and work hard to ensure. Actually, now that I add them up, it is easily the highest-rated category. Looks like we need to work on signs, and we […]

Whitewater Wonderland

Epic, never seen before WHITEWATER WONDERLAND. Everyone has more whitewater than they know what to do with. What they don’t have is a quiet, cozy cabin tucked in the woods, and our inside info on how best to handle it. Don’t get me wrong, this Gauley River rafting season is going to be epic. More […]

They had me at…

They had me at Dangerous! The Via Ferrata. No, this is not really about our cabins, but some things are worth talking about, even if you won’t get any cabin bookings from it. I really did not pay any attention to the planning, as I was going on this end-of-summer family trip regardless of what […]

Do What?

In a Cabin? In West Virginia? You are doing what? Does it have electricity? People do all kinds of things here at OCR: Start writing books. Finish books (a woman stayed in cabin 3 writing for a month because she was “on a roll”.) Paint. Get married. Get inspired to get married. Get inspired to […]
