The newly dedicated John Henry Park is committed to preserving the history and folklore of that era. Magnificent any time of year, Sandstone Falls is a behemoth, spanning the New River just downstream from Hinton. The falls are reached for viewing from a boardwalk built by the National Park Service. Tamarack is a world class gallery, performance and shopping venue. Featuring "The Best of West Virginia," it is a showcase for the state's finest crafts, art, furniture, gifts and specialty foods with an affordable food court managed by the Greenbrier Resort. Tamarack is a must-visit part of your trip to the mountain state. Our own River Cabin property includes over 200 yards of river frontage as well as more than 140 acres of woods, wildflowers, ferns and wildlife. Along with whitetail deer, guests report having seen owls, woodpeckers, great blue herons, beavers, bald eagles and more. Some folks arrive with intentions of doing all sorts of sight seeing and end up spending nearly all of their time on the porch (it is pretty hard to resist). The cabin is fully furnished and available by the day, weekend or week. Contact us for rates and for available dates.
