It was a great place to just relax and watch the water. Everything you needed for a quiet place to unwind. Extra toothbrushes were provided if you needed them with other bathroom products, plenty of towels for two, lots of cooking options. (Also, it is not the house with the carport, it is further back from the road than I realized and tried to get into another BnB/Vrbo before I realized I was at the wrong one)

Cute cottage by the river
The house itself was good, even though it is very small. Kitchen had everything we needed. Was nice to sit on the back deck and enjoy the water. Location isn't great, but we spent most of our time across the river in Wheeling.
If you are looking for party central this not the place. If you want peace in a warm, cozy environment, this is the place! This was our 3rd year back and it is the perfect reset from the stress of everyday life. Sit inside or outside on the expansive deck and wstch the barges go by. We will return!

Relaxing Time at the Cottage
Enjoyed the quaint little cottage on the River. Close to Wheeling and local winery which we enjoy. Clean and welcoming atmosphere in the cottage and the host was friendly and we had good communication. Pizza Express is just down the road for takeout and we liked their fresh homemade dough.Overall a nice experience at this location.

Relaxing Get Away
We had a very nice time staying at the cottage. Everything was clean and very well prepared for us. Highlights included the magnificent view of the beautiful Ohio river where we saw a few winter birds and large barge and wonderful deck outside.It was VERY quiet and peaceful during our stay, which is exactly what we wanted. There were toiletries available if you forgot something (we forgot toothpaste) and a coffee maker with coffee provided. The space was large enough for 2 adults to feel comfortable and not cramped. The only micro space is the shower stall, which is basically the size of, well, you lol. Don't drop the soap, it will take an act of God to pick it back up in there (wink). On the upside, the shower had great pressure and plenty of hot water.This cottage is a real gem and we are very pleased with our stay there. The rental rate is very affordable and it was obvious that the owners take good care of the house and want their guests to enjoy themselves.

Quaint little place
My husband and I were looking for a weekend getaway…hiking and biking. This place was cozy, clean and the deck out back overlooking the Ohio River was very relaxing…although the evenings got chilly. Centrally located for all we wanted to do. Highly recommend staying here and also recommend the Belmont Brewerks for drinks and dinner.

Met my girlfriend as we both live out of state, her in Indiana and I’m in Pennsylvania. We picked equal distance for us both and found the White Cottage. The view was incredible even in the rain. It was clean and just perfect for our girls weekend!

Perfect Couple Getaway
Cute and cozy cottage that is perfect for two people. The Ohio was running high and fast and almost mesmerizing to watch. Nice little town good for walking. Appreciated the Keurig and well stocked kitchen. Super comfy bed. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!
The area around the property is not luxurious by any means but that does not matter because your attention is on what is outside the expansive windows and the huge deck- the Ohio river! This little cabin is a gem. This was our second stay and we are already planning to go back. Wheeling W. Virginia is just a short drive away and there is a lot to do there if you wish - hint, a restaurant called Later Alligator is well worth a visit or two.
