Nice property. Cool brewery next door. They filed a claim for insurance. Saying there was a dent for over 1400 dollars. Dents were all over the airsrteam its a 1973. Beware vacationers or white water rafters. Take a video of the assets.I Suspect they're not honest.

Broken Toilet and Unresponsive Host

Our stay was so disappointing. My husband and I planned an anniversary trip to Shenandoah and New River Gorge and we booked Archie for one night that was supposed to be relaxing. However, the toilet stopped working after we each used it once upon our arrival. We contacted the host multiple times with no response. There were also ants throughout the camper. We had muffins in a plastic container on the counter and when we woke up, they were covered in ants. Definitely not worth the money we paid. We’re hoping to request a refund. I hope the owners do some serious work before continuing to rent this property.

Overpriced

Although the camper was very cute and conveniently located, I would not recommend staying there. It was definitely overpriced given the fact that the power went out after two hours and the owners never communicated with us, even after reaching out. Every fabric surface inThe camper was covered in dog hair. According to previous reviews, power is always an issue.

Enjoyable Glamping!!

This is a very unique, beautifully appointed airstream!! The bed is very comfortable and spacious and everything was available for a pleasant weekend trip. This is ideal for moderate temperatures, so I would prefer to stay here spring or fall times. We enjoyed our trip very much!!!

Awesome spot for a weekend getaway

My wife and I booked Archie for a weekend trip to New River Gorge National Park. We had a great stay. The trailer was cute, the shower had good pressure and heat, and the bed was comfortable. The trailer was in a nice spot - only a short drive to the park and to local restaurants and stores. Would definitely book again

Two fun days with Archie.

We always wanted to experience a "camping" stay in an Airstream, and "Archie" was very cool. We spent two days in Archie and had a great time. The airstream was kept well and decorated in a cool thematic way. The nearby areas had a number of activities and places to visit, especially Fayetteville, which was a cool little town. We have recommended Archie and the area to a few of our friends and would recommend it to anyone who wants a different kind of fun stay in beautiful West Virginia.

Power issues

First off, it’s a really neat cozy place to stay…the issues we had were power outage due to capacity…spent in total 9 hours there without power (not including our time out and about) this was kind of a big issue for us due to routine grooming appliances (hair dryer/straightener, beard straightener etc.) not only that it gets very hot super quick in the heat of the day in there and the air conditioner provided just doesn’t keep up as it is. It really needs 1 unit at each end of the airstream to really be functional as an A/C…but then you have the power issue that I’m not sure would be able to handle 2 units. I’m not an electrician this is just my speculation. We noticed the power would trip when the hot water for a shower was used (a/c was on during this time). The airstream breaker box was fine so it had to be tripped from a main line. Next is the size of the bathroom. It’s simply not big enough to do your business as I’m not a huge person but not a little guy either so i can’t even imagine a larger person trying to fit in there…maybe have a porta john on premises for just in case?(for us this wasn’t nearly as big of an issue but it’s worth mentioning i feel like)…other than those 2 things the vibe was immaculate and exactly what we were looking for and near adventure at the gorge. And tbh the price would be more than fair if the electrical and A/C were better figured out. If those were fixed I’d absolutely stay here again regularly.

Archie was decorated so cute! There are some quirks that definitely need attention. The air conditioning didn’t work, the television/wifi didn’t work, and the electricity shut off the last day and we had to take cold showers. It was very unfortunate that the host stop responding to these problems, so none of them were fixed while we were there. It’s not very secluded either, there is a house right beside of it. I would’ve loved to rate this place differently. It is as cute as they come! Unfortunately our experience wasn’t the best.
