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.

Easter Break
Such a cute little cottage on the Ohio River. Listing was exactly as described. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook Easter dinner. I loved all the cute decor! The deck was amazing to sit and watch the action on the river. My other favorite thing was all the board games!! We will definitely stay again!

Cozy with a view
The property had everything we needed. Very clean. Wheeling, St. Clairsville, and Steubenville are all short drives to find restaurants and things to do. Unique, industrial vibe for a getaway. Great view of River and moon/sunrise. Comfortable sleeping. Shower is a little small, but with good water pressure.

Great little cottage on the Ohio River
The White Cottage is a great space for enjoying the river, the tug boats, and the geese. Really found the property to be quiet even though it sits behind a duplex in front. We weren't able to enjoy the deck due to the winter temps, but really enjoyed having the blinds open and seeing the water and WV hills. Would recommend.

The little home on the river was perfect for our stay after we dropped our daughter off at college. We enjoyed breakfast on the deck overlooking the Ohio River and watched the riverboats chug by. Cozy but very charming and well appointed with everything we needed.
