The Eloise: Greenbrier River Retreat + Tubes & Firepit
Welcome to The Eloise — your riverside escape on the Greenbrier.
Tucked along the banks of the Greenbrier River in Talcott, WV, The Eloise is a one-of-a-kind retreat where misty mornings, café-light evenings, and slow days by the water set the pace.
This unique stay combines a cozy main cabin and charming small cabin rented together, creating room to spread out while still feeling tucked away in your own little corner of West Virginia.
Spend your days floating the river, fishing, exploring nearby small towns, hiking scenic trails, or simply doing nothing at all. Grab a tube, sunscreen, and river essentials from our curated guest setup and head down toward the water.
As the sun goes down, light a fire, settle into the deck with a drink, and enjoy dinners under café lights while the sounds of the river and surrounding hills take over.
Though The Eloise feels worlds away, you’re conveniently located just minutes from local markets and everyday essentials.
Amenities include:
• Starlink Satellite Wi-Fi (great for remote work) • Washer & dryer • Two bathrooms • Multiple cozy sleeping spaces • Direct River access • Firepit • Outdoor gathering spaces • Pet-friendly accommodations
Whether you’re planning an anniversary trip, family getaway, river weekend, or simply looking to unplug for a few days, The Eloise was made for slow mornings, starry skies, and a little riverside magic.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

Great spot on River. Nice hole in front of house for swimming and fishing. Caught several small mouth bass. Very private, really enjoyed seating on porch and around fire pit listening to river. Seen bald eagle on our last morning. Would for sure go there again. Host was great, communication was great and had no problems during our stay.
This is by fair one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Place is clean and everything is there that you need to just relax and enjoy your time. Beds are comfortable, plenty of space for 5 people to enjoy with room to spare. We will definitely be back! Property manager was also so friendly and helpful. Location so beautiful that pictures do not do it justice.
Very nice property along the river. Only thing that I could possibly complain about is the bed in the single cabin uses to be a double when our family stayed before now it's more like a bunk bed not suitable for a couple and the pillows on it are so heavy you can't even pick them up. Maybe update the photos to all the new work done that looks so nice since we last stayed.
