The Cheat River Lodge & Cabins, located just 5 minutes from Elkins, West Virginia is a privately owned and operated, non-commercial vacation destination on the banks of the Cheat River. We are a VRBO premier host, with a physical office on location with a 24/7 staff. Before the numerous franchise hotel chains came into being, Ma & Pop places like the Cheat River Lodge served the weary traveler. Preserved, when the backroads became less traveled, its tranquil riverfront setting remains. For those who have an affinity for water, a river runs through it ! Built in the 70s, at the gateway to the Monongahela National Forest, the six room Lodge is a sportsman’s getaway. Over the years, its riverside location on the Shavers Fork of the Cheat River gained appeal with outdoor enthusiasts. For the fishermen, it’s a bonanza of a fishing spot as it is a major trout stocking location. A vacation destination, we offer rooms & cabins with a terrific river view
