Reviewer Comments:
Overall, great place. The first and second floor were very clean. The fenced yard is great for dogs. The basement was probably the best part, fun to play ping pong and air hockey. A few things that could be improved: the basement had a lot of dead bugs, particularly in the ceiling lights. It was not clear if it had been cleaned. The kitchen was overall fine, but some of the pots and pans were in pretty bad shape, and there were no measuring cups or Tupperware. There is nowhere to walk nearby, the road dead ends and the main street is not walkable. But the state park is a 6 min drive so it was fine. Overall, one of my favorite places we have stayed in WV!
My family and I had a great week staying at Alpine View. Close to awesome hiking! Golf and swimming at Canaan (2 miles away) was a blast!Check in was easy and property management responsive.

Reviewer Comments:
AC wasn’t working well 87 degrees upstairs over 70 downstairs. Bugs still in downstairs light fixture (see reviews) since we were not moved to another place and they could only bring one fan, would choose another property possible another company. Water conditioner seemed to be malfunctioning as the smell never went away after a days use

Reviewer Comments:
Unfortunately this rental was a miss for us and we won’t be staying there again. The positives: The fireplace was very charming, the location was pretty good (only about a 5-7 minute drive from timberline), the hot tub was great, owner/manager was responsive. The negatives: We had a mouse problem that really grossed us out. We understand that mice happen- but there were mouse droppings everywhere! Especially in the drawers and stuff of the kitchen. Like all kitchen utensils and silverware, bowls, plates, cookware etc. We didn’t feel comfortable using most of it - especially without a wash. Once we did wash the things we needed to use- the kitchen supplies are terrible. If you stay here- definitely bring your own or they need replaced. The pots and pans especially. Finally, everything was just sort of rundown and not taken care of. The basement is full of random nets or pieces of games or things, the ping pong table is about to collapse and sort of held up by books, there’s about 100 flies inside the basement lights. We did address the mouse problem with the manager and they got back to us and offered to have maintenance put up traps but with dogs and children it didn’t really seem like a viable option- I had mentioned bait boxes on the outside but didn’t really get follow up with that. I think this could be a nicer property worth staying in with some TLC- handle the mice and get some decent pots and pans and clean up the basement a bit and it would be great. The pans issue (not even including the mouse poop part) alone was enough to turn me off of this rental because it was like impossible to cook anything and that made our time there very difficult to manage and feed everyone. Pretty much had to give up and eat out and eat chips. There was like rust or film that came off the pans into anything we’d try to cook or everything would stick to it- it just wasn’t a good experience to cook in.
