    We just celebrated our 7 year anniversary with a weekend at Wildernest Inn. What a wonderful place! It was our first time ever at a B&B and this place has set the standard very high. The bears were roaming the area quite frequently. They provide a lot of entertainment. There is no television show that will offer you more entertainment than those animals. The hosts are wonderful, we instantly felt like we were part of their family. We cannot wait to make a trip back!

    We loved the Wildernest cabin! It is a very peaceful and private place to get away from everything. The only noise you hear is yourself and the relaxing sounds of nature. The only "problem" wasn't really a problem. There were lots of cobwebs in the cabin. Now I know you are thinking, well of course there are cobwebs in a cabin. I just don't like cobwebs. Cathy assured me this is not the "norm". This however did not take away any of the pleasure we had at the cabin - it just made it feel even more rustic. It's all good. When you make your reservation to stay at the cabin, make sure you also make reservation for dinner at least one night at the Inn. The food is exquisite and very plentiful. And I bet you will see at least one bear while dining there. It is important that you make sure you bring your supplies (food, etc) with you. Don't wait until you get there (like we did) as the closest town is about 12 miles or so away. We highly recommend staying at the Wildernest cabin. We would definitely go back and stay again.

    What a wonderful place!

    Our fall visit to the Wildernest Inn last year was our first time ever staying at a B&B. Kathy & Stewart really made us feel at home. What a beautiful home they have. We are planning a trip back this fall to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. The view from the inn and the wildlife are incredible. We love WV, and the Wildernest Inn is the best of the best.

    Can't Wait to go back!

    If you like a comfortable bed, great food, great scenery, and close encounters with wildlife, This place is a MUST! Everything you could ever want in a bed and breakfast and SO MUCH MORE! The food was great! The Pery Pery Chicken and the Eggs Benedict were among our favorites. The room had the most amazing view! The entire inn was clean and comfortable. We stayed in Heaven's View. The no entry privacy policy (by the inn keepers) worked great for us, as we are not the tidiest of people. Kathy and Stewart are passionate and knowledgeable about the black bears that visit their property and use their deck as a lounge and crossing area. We stayed for five nights and wished it could have been longer. Kathy and Stewart were welcoming hosts who were often asking us if there was anything we needed. Other than an occasional libation we didn't need to ask for anything! Everything we needed or wanted was always there when they said it would be. YOU WILL get an education on black bears and much more if you visit this inn! My husband and I were fascinated by all the stories and information Stewart and Kathy shared with us. From growing up and living in Africa, scuba diving instruction in Puerto Rico, to this amazing wildlife refuge, these two people have really seen and experienced more than anyone we have ever met. We will return for sure!!!

    From the moment we arrived and met our hosts Kathy and Stewart we knew this was going to be a very special experience they were so warm and friendly and the location was just heavenly. The view from our room was so special we couldn't wait to wake up !! We had booked breakfast and dinner both were great, we met some great people and some even greater wildlife. They describe it as their little piece of heaven it was a much bigger piece than that. Our only grumble was, we hadn't booked long enough and just did not want to leave, luckily Stewart was in no hurry to make us go !! Nick and Jan England
