Don’t worry, we do Valentine’s Day everyday, all year long. I really I could read some of the comments in the guest books to you, but I get choked up. Vday always seems to create a lot of pressure on all sides of the holiday. Who says you have to be at the top of […]
cabin vacations
Countdown To … Nothing?
Stop the presses! The world will end on Dec. 21. We’re not taking reservations after the Mayan calendar expires in 17 days. How are you spending your final 17? Wouldn’t it be quaint to spend the last few days of time as we know it holed up with your loved ones, cherishing each other and the natural […]
Frankenstorm 2012 at Opossum Creek Retreat
Want to know what the Frankenstorm was like for us here at Opossum Creek Retreat? We had some guests in the cabins and although they were happy, warm, and cozy, for lots of reasons we decided to extract them. It took four of us about 4 hours to get from the sign. But back to the […]
Breakin’ the Rules!
Yes, we are rule breakers. School does not teach us this skill but we entrepreneurs can’t help it. We are made that way. And you can be too. Everyone has rules. I don’t know why but we do. My job has always been to bend or break them. Just ask my parents. Opossum Creek Retreat […]

Bucket List: You Can Do it All Here in the New River Gorge
I took a quick look at all the fun stuff we did during our reunion. Here’s what I realized: Some of the people in the group will never need to make a bucket list because they have done any and everything that pops up. Others have slayed dragons so large and scary most of us […]
Consumed, Devoured, Hit by a Train, Chewed Up, Spit Out, and Left for Dead
And that was from the family reunion, not the “Derecho” storm! About the derecho – we suffered no damage from the storm at the Cabins or our home. Our neighbors and friends were not so lucky. We were without power for 8 days, but everything is back to “normal”. The family reunion was a huge […]
The New River Gorge – Your ‘Bucket List’ Destination
If you have a “Bucket List”, this is a great place to fill it up! I might not always remember that though. It’s kind of like when I worked at Disney. I had all of these awesome activities right at your fingertips, but ended up taking it for granted every day. So when Geoff told […]
