Free to: Any Veteran
2 free nights, Nov. 8 & 9 or 10 & 11, 2013
Yes, it is free.
The Deal
For the past few years, we have been giving a free cabin to veterans on Veterans Day in honor of our friends and family who have served.
Not the whole cabin. Just a couple of nights in the cabin.
Some gave all, all gave some. We are only able to give a cabin for 2 nights. It is our humble gesture of thanks to those who have served our country. Thank You.
We don’t care if you are homeless. You won’t be for two nights.
Heck, bring the whole squad, we have cabins that will sleep up to 20 people!

What to do during your free stay
You don’t just have to come sit in the cabins all weekend! There’s more to do around the New River Gorge.
Know what you want to do? We have some ideas. Lots! We’re local experts, so whether you want to see the sights or get off the beaten path, we can show you where.
We have our favorites, but some things you vets might enjoy:
Adventure & explore:
The New River Gorge is a natural playground. Hit the trails for a stroll or bike, and let them lead you to beautiful overlooks. A little less adventurous adventure, maybe? Ok, try our shopping and culture guide.
Relax:
Of course, you don’t have to leave the cabin. Get a massage, or a spa treatment. Then slide into the hot tub and enjoy the beautiful rolling backdrop. We have a relaxation guide so you can get the most from your vacation.
Dine out in Fayetteville, and let the local chefs a prepare you a fresh Appalachian feast.
Honor the Holiday:
Did you know Fayetteville has its own war history? It was an important strategic site during the Civil War. It was the first place that indirect fire was used in battle. A Halfway House in nearby Anstead was used as a Civil War headquarters. The bridge for which the town of Gauley Bridge was named was a strategic aid during the war as well.
Pay respects to fallen brethren at the War Memorial Building honoring World War II Veterans, the Veterans War Memorial for Civil War soldiers in Smithers, or the grave of General Thomas Stonewall Jackson’s mother in Anstead.
We hope to see you around Opossum Creek, so we can say thank you.
Thank you.
Hey there, I think your honoring of vets is fantastic. This past year we had the opportunity to stay with you and we loved it. Our party included 2 vets, one being me. We would love to take advantage of your offer but unfortunately, our schedules won’t permit it.
I can say however that we will be back, hopefully sooner then later…thanks again for your hospitality … great place to stay!

I am a Desert Storm veteran of the Air Force (1988-1991.) I have been a deputy sheriff for two counties, a WV state trooper for a short while, and now I am a federal police officer at the Huntington VA Medical Center. My wife and I have been to several Bridge Day’s (rafting and lunching underneath, horseback riding, hiking, ziplining, dining, etc. We have wanted to stay at your cabins a long time. We would greatly appreciate your hospitality. I would like to try to reserve a cabin for next year. This is short notice for us this year. My wife is a VA LPN and is currently working and going to school for her RN. So we can’t make it this year. Didn’t even make Bridge Day. Hated it. My cell is XXXXXXXXXX if you have any questions. I will pass this along and ensure that it pays dividends for you. Thanks again.
can’t take advantage this year, but 2014 would be great – what do i need to do to reserve?
Hi Phi,
Thanks for checking us out. Sorry you can’t make it this year. Keep an eye out for next years Vets Day Special and we’ll sign you up!
My father is a US Air Force Veteran. I was wanting to get him and my mother the two night free special. My mom just had to have a breast biopsy today and things did not go as well as hoped. I seen this advertisement on the internet and though how sweet it would be if they could go and get away without worrying about the cost. Hope you consider them. I tried calling the number posted but did not get an answer. I did leave a message. Hope to hear from you soon.
Hello I apologize for the delay. I replied to this last fall but it did not post.
We will offer the Veterans day special again in the Fall. Keep an eye on our facebook page and on our news letter and blog. That is where we will announce it.
