GAC is a beautiful piece of property with 6 cabins all beautifully appointed & immaculately clean. These are Adult only cabins with privacy certainly taken into consideration. My wife and I have stayed here 3 years in a row and we absolutely love the area, lots of trails for hiking, a near by Golf Course at Canaan Valley Resort, Seneca Rocks are close by for day time activities. The towns of Davis and Thomas are also close by with tons of good shops, breweries, and restaurants. We absolutely love this part of the country. The cabins have everything you need whether you want to stay in and cook in their fully equipped kitchen, all you need to bring is food & drinks! There are even Charcoal grills at every cabin and the Jacuzzi hot tubs are perfect to pass the mornings & evenings away. Our cabin Serenity had a pool table and bubble hockey game upstairs. Plenty of DVD's, dish network tv, puzzles, books, and some games. The beds are a little firm for our taste, but that is really the only negative that I have. Not ridiculous but just wish they were softer. We can't wait to go back next year! read more

Okay, I need everyone looking at this review to take my advice and book a cabin at this phenomenal Luxury Cabin Resort. I call it a resort because it absolutely fits the definition of a resort which is a place that is a popular destination for vacations or recreation, or which is frequented for a particular purpose. The destination is popular for all Canaan Valley activities (skiing, horse back riding, cavern exploration, etc). We frequent these cabins for recreation, relaxation, rest and recuperation. The cabins are second to none and the attention to detail is simply amazing. The cabins are decorated with five star quality and they all present that home away from home feeling. The kitchens have all the appliances, dishes, pots and pans that you need in order to prepare those home cooked meals while living in your home away from home. This was our second time visiting this luxury cabin resort and we decided to bring our brother and sister along for a birthday celebration. My wife and I stayed in the Royale Cabin and my Brother and sister stayed in the Majestic Cabin. When we arrived we walked right into our cabin and were amazed by the captivating appeal. The soft music was playing in the background and the cozy gas fireplace had the place warm and toasty inside. Both cabins were even meticulously decorated for Christmas holiday which was a very nice touch. Daniel & Jamie Marsh are Simply Outstanding and you can tell that they care about their customers experience. They have thought of everything in order to make your stay extremely enjoyable and relaxing to include the jacuzzi/Hot tub which was excellent during the winter nights. We will FOREVER support them and this astonishing luxury cabin resort because they understand professionalism, quality, customer appeal and customer service. What are you waiting for.....BOOK IT NOW!! read more

My wife and I honeymooned here 3 years ago. We were looking to get away from the crowds and just hang out by ourselves and that's exactly what we got. The cabin we stayed in, the King, was nicely appointed. Through the front windows we had an AWESOME view of the ridges leading up to Dolly Sods, and we enjoyed all the amenities like a private hot tub out back, big shower and the big porch. Ron and Rella, the owners, were great at meeting all of our needs as well. If you get a chance, chat with Ron over a drink about how he came to own a set of cabins in West Virginia; he's had quite the life so far. Please note: I will say that one potential issue for folks could be the food. When we went the restaurant across the field in the barn wasn't that great (not terrible, just not notable either). The big problem here is that there's not really any restaurants or even grocery stores until you get about 25 minutes down the road (there's a Shop 'N' Save in Davis). So, come to Golden Anchor, but come with a cooler stocked up with and use the kitchen in your cabin. Because the restaurant wasn't stellar, I've gotta give 4 stars. For local activities we recommend checking out Dolly Sods for some hiking, horseback riding at a farm toward Davis (I forget the name but we had a blast) and maybe driving to see Seneca Rocks and even Spruce Knob. On our last morning we actually drove 3.5 hours away and did white water rafting with ACE on the New River. Super long day but totally worth it. If you're looking to just get away from everyone, relax and enjoy the great outdoors, Golden Anchor hits the spot. read more

I was sitting here reminiscing about my anniversary and felt it was long over due to leave this review. We had a wonderful anniversary here. The cabins were spacious, clean and the location was beautiful. Me and my wife had the privilege to meet the owner at the cabin's local restaurant and he was very pleasant, professional and warm. I highly recommend these cabins. read more

Very nice cabin. I stayed in the Queen, and it had it a heated towel rack, heated floors and a Jacuzzi on the rear deck. I would recommend these to anyone staying in the Canaan Valley area and Blackwater Falls. read more

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at Golden Anchor in 2015. It was fantastic! The location was superb, the cabin itself was classy, clean and cozy and the cabin owners were a dream to work with. I can't recommend Golden Anchor enough to anyone that is considering a visit. read more

We stayed in 2 different rooms and we loved them both. Obviously the Royale was more luxurious than the pond view but the they were both amazing and so comfortable and relaxing. I think Pondview has the best view but the Royale is the most romantic. The people who take care of the place are really nice and friendly too! So convenient for people interested in Blackfalls, Dolly Sods, Smoke Hole Caverns, Seneca Rocks and all the other awesome attractions nearby. read more

The cabin looked wonderful. Great bathroom and kitchen. The wifi was not hooked up to the internet ( not that big of a deal to me). The front door would not lock and they seid they couldn't fix it until the next day. This was not the best wedding anniversary we had. read more

My wife and I just returned from a two night stay at the Honeymoon Royale cabin. I expected the cabins to be hidden in the woods, but the property is right off the main road. They are exceptionally quiet, however. The main office was not indicated off the driveway, but we guessed (correctly) that the restaurant with the same name also contained the front desk. An older gentleman greeted us and gave us a few tips regarding the cabin. Service was friendly and personal. The cabin was amazing. I didn't expect so many small luxuries such as heated flooring in the bathroom and full body jets in the shower. There was a full kitchen, Bose sound system, and satellite TV. There really was everything and more we expected. I took off a star due to no internet access and the owners requesting the guests remove and prep the dirty linens and remove their own trash. I don't mind the work, but a five star resort would be expected to do everything for the guests. For a getaway in the mountains, it doesn't get much better than this. read more

Where to begin.....We arrived on a motorcycle and it was a little chilly. We were greeted with a smile at the restaurant when we signed in. When we walked into the Royale cabin....it took our breath away. It was warm and there was mood music playing on the stereo. The atmosphere was exactly what we were hoping for. The cabin was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The shower was simply amazing! The bed was extremely comfortable and the hot tub was clean and ready for use. We loved having the towel warmer and the robes to wear while we were there. The only thing I have negative to say is in the afternoon you could hear a lot of road noise and it took away from the cabin in the woods feel. Other than that it was perfect and a stay that we will always remember and cherish. If you are looking for a romantic getaway...look no further. You will not be disappointed in your stay here. Daniel, thanks for answering emails questions promptly when I had them. Keep up the good work...we will definitely be back! read more

My husband and I just spent our honeymoon in the Queen Honeymoon cabin the first week in August. The cabin was gorgeous and had a private hot tub. We felt right at home with a fully equipped kitchen and all the essential cookware and eating utensils. The area was very relaxing and peaceful with a breathtaking view of the mountains. This was a perfect place for us to just relax and get away from it all. We enjoyed excellent dinner at the Golden Anchor Restaurant which is right across from the cabins, on the same property. The new owners, Jamie and Daniel are very welcoming and there for you if you need anything. We enjoyed our stay so much that we extended it! We definitely plan on coming back for our anniversary! read more

You really couldn't ask for a better place to stay in my opinion. The cabin has it all, a full kitchen, a gas fireplace, television, a couples bathroom, a private hot tub on the back patio and a very comfortable bed. This place doesn't cut the corners and its extremely clean. The cabins and restaurant also have free wifi. The restaurant offers a great menu, a classy dinning room and a relaxed atmosphere. The food is the best we came across in the Canaan Valley. We frequent the area and this is our go to place to get away from it all. Highly Recommended if staying in Canaan! read more

We enjoyed our stay at the Pondview cabin recently. The owners have made improvements since we were here last year. There is a new king size bed and new sofa and chair. The hot tub has a new easier to lift cover and the owners have added a new charcoal grill. It was the perfect family escape from the rat race for just a few days. We will be back in the winter!! read more

Nice Surprise We stayed in The King Cabin for our first springtime getaway and it was SPECTACULAR!! The cabin was immaculately clean. The view off the porch was breathtaking. The hot tub worked perfectly and was super clean. We have stayed in many cabins in the surrounding area and this one was definitely the best!! We will be back. Marcia read more

This cabin getaway made our 4th anniversary special. We stayed at Classic and what a cozy, wonderful cabin. It looks just like the video and the extra amenities were amazing. I loved the chocolate dipped strawberries. We hope to be back again in the near future and you can be sure we will spread the word around about your cabins. read more

What a wonderful stay in the Classic. The cabin was very clean and ready at the chuck in time. There was a full kitchen area,porch and hot tub to soak your cares away. The area was quiet but close enough to all of the local attractions within a short drive. I would recommend these cabins to anyone visiting the area. read more
