My husband had booked a place for us in Cook Forest. On the day we were to leave they called and cancelled our reservation due to a water issue. I was devastated. My husband had looked at Smoke Hole Resort, but hesitated, because it was a 4 hour drive. When our plans fell through he called Smoke Hole. They arranged a Honey Moon Cabin for us. We would be arriving after office hours, so they went put of their way to make the room available after hours and post-phone formal check in until the next day. The cabin was awesome!!! We also went to the gift store, and took a tour of the cavern. Our stay was a pleasure from check-in to check-out. I plan to book another weekend this summer. This time I will bring the kids. :)

Well let's start with the positives shall we. Cabins are nice, clean, comfortable. Each looks to be identical in layout. Front porch with bench to sit on, small BBQ out front of each cabin. Walk in the door and on your left is a kitchen with full fridge, electric 4 burner stove and oven, microwave, sink, and enough cooking utensils to get you by. On the right is the wood burning fireplace, with a love seat and matching chair. There is cable TV hooked up. Next is the bathroom, clean and stocked with some soap and towels, shower stall,sink, and of course the toilet. Then the 2 person heart shaped tub and last the bed, queen sized with nice soft sheets(my wife only buys the expensive high thread count sheets and said these are very comfortable) , 4 pillows, and a quilt blanket, along with a second quilt blanket folded up. Small chest of drawers and some hangers if needed. There is a door between the tub and bed area leading to a small porch area in back. This can look over the small stream that is separate from the main river if the cabin is facing the right way. Quite a nice view from the one i stayed in. The fireplace is quite nice, even has the heat blower system which can be turned on using a switch next to the fireplace. 

Price wise, i would say it's around average for similar places around WV and PA. 

Some nit picks, or negatives, depending on you point of view. The ac/heater unit under one of the front windows in the living room type area, for heat it can be quite loud on and off. It kicks in to heat and gets up there in noise a bit, then goes into just a circulate air mode. Next is the shower, the shower head is of course just the cheapo single mode head, which would be fine except for the extreme water pressure it puts out. An water saving 1 to 3 mode cheap shower head would work well in this case, as it would lower the water pressure... Which leads to the next issue, the hot water tank. It runs out pretty quickly. So a shower needs to be double quick in the winter time. Again with a water saving shower head this would become much less of an issue.

So now we get to the tub, "jacuzzi". Yes it is a nice shape, great for couples. However even following the provided instructions on the wall, it can be a bit of a let down quick. The system uses straight air blower, which is located in the kitchen actually, this runs air via a pvc pipe over to the tub... On the other side of the cabin. So by time it hits the tub it is rather cold. While sitting in a nice hot tub, you get extremely cold air flowing on to you, which also cools the water rather fast. Along with the short supply on the water heater, it's a bit of a let down. A proper water jet style jacuzzi tub would have been a much better choice when building these cabins.

WiFi in my cabin was near non existent, and it's located directly behind the main building/owners home. Thankfully I get a great tmobile signal here, so not much of an issue. 

Last thing, not really sure why or where they come from, but seems they have issue here with flies, like regular house flies. We had maybe 4 or 5 in the cabin. There is a fly swatted hanging on the wall, along with one of those automated sprayers that normally puffs some nice scent in the air, but has a fly and other insect killer/repellant in it instead. Like is said, don't know why, cabins are spotlessly clean, nothing around that should attract them, perhaps the river, or something... Shrug. 

Over all, a nice place, but with some quirks and possible let downs. I would recommend this place, but disclaimer it with the above information as some might now care about those things. 

To the owners i would certainly suggest replacing the shower heads. Use the high efficiency heads that will lower the water coming out, extra spray settings would be a bonus. It would make the showers much more pleasant, and would certainly save you money on water usage in even a short period of time. Along with the hot water going a good bit further when taking a shower.

Don't confuse these two separate locations in Google Maps, especially when you get to this are with no phone reception that can help figure out which "resort" to go to.

Beautiful place!  Creek ran right behind the back porch of our cabin.  Stayed in one of the honeymoon cabins - romantic.💖
