Good to know

Escape to Uri, an enchanting riverfront mountain hideaway in the historic Swiss village of Helvetia, West Virginia—a charming alpine-inspired community nestled in the hills along the Buckhannon River. This spacious, family-friendly cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic comfort, modern amenities, and direct access to nature, ideal for groups of up to 8 seeking seclusion, adventure, and authentic "Almost Heaven" vibes. Outdoor Bliss Awaits: Relax on the welcoming front sitting porch or the expansive rear porch with outdoor dining setup—offering serene views of the flowing Buckhannon River. Soak in the six-person hot tub overlooking the river, perfect for stargazing, unwinding after hikes, or enjoying cool evenings by the water. Gather around the firepit for s'mores, stories, and cozy nights under the stars. Spacious & Comfortable Interior: Main floor: Open living room with Smart TV, bar-top dining area, fully equipped kitchen, two comfortable bedrooms (queen beds), and a full bathroom. Second floor: Two private queen bedrooms, each with separate bath. One bedroom is larger with a working desk, the other has a jetted tub and private sitting porch. Property Access & Adventures: Roam freely across the private property, with direct access to approximately 2,000 feet of frontage on a scenic fork of the Buckhannon River—your own peaceful stretch for relaxation, wildlife observation (deer, birds, and more frequent the area), and enjoying the sounds of nature. If properly licensed, fish the river right from your land—target native brook trout, stocked rainbow trout, and occasional other species (always check current WV DNR regulations for licenses, seasons, and limits). Bring your ATV or UTV—safely and responsibly use the driveway and river trail to access nearby roads and trails for exploring the surrounding mountains. Occasionally, you'll share the property with friendly resident animals: horses, a cat, a dog, and guineas—adding to the authentic rural charm. Helvetia's unique Swiss heritage shines through in local traditions, festivals (like Fasnacht or Swiss National Day), and nearby gems: The Hütte restaurant for authentic Swiss fare, the Helvetia Historic Trail for scenic hikes, Holly River State Park for waterfalls and swimming, and the West Virginia State Wildlife Center for family outings. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, family reunion, or outdoor adventure base, Uri delivers privacy, comfort, and unforgettable riverfront memories. We're attentive hosts—ready with local tips, check-in help, or anything to make your stay exceptional.
