About this lodge
The Cranberry Mountain Lodge is a tranquil, isolated retreat for outdoor enthusiasts in the mountains of West Virginia. Rent the Cranberry Mountain Lodge and get an entire Lodge and Mountain to yourself!
The Cranberry Mountain Lodge is one of the most unique lodging experiences in the U.S. Located at 4,000 feet elevation on top of Cranberry Mountain, the lodge adjoins nearly one million acres of national forest. The views off the deck are spectacular, exceeding 40 miles. You can hike, bike or cross country ski right out the front door to a vast trail system. The lodge is very spacious and isolated, with the nearest neighbor being 2.5 miles away. When you rent the lodge, you rent the entire seven-bedroom facility, so you get the privacy you deserve.

My sister and I, our spouses, children, and dogs enjoyed our Thanksgiving in the WV mountains. We were even treated to a light snow one of the nights. The house property were exactly as expected. The house has absolutely everything that you can imagine or need. Plenty of bedding, towels, and the kitchen was very well stocked. John was an excellent host and very helpful when the cloudy days depleted the solar energy store and we needed to start the generator. We loved our stay and would definitely consider returning.

This property is very unique and a gem of a find on VRBO. It's tucked up at 4,000 feet in SE West Virginia, Far from civilization but not so remote that it's eerie feeling or tedious to get to "the world" when necessary.
This is truly an off-grid place to disappear at and gain peace of mind and peace of heart.
John is an excellent owner and VRBO Rep and cares deeply about this special home and location.
I highly recommend experiencing West Virginia Bliss in the mountains. This is a truly memorable place.
