The historic community of Arden, West Virginia, is home to the Tygart River Guest House. It is off the beaten path and serves as a convenient hub with direct access to the river – yet only a 6 mile from the nearest town where you can find restaurants, groceries, gas, pharmacy, hospital and more.
The Arden Grade Road between the guest house and river was once a main route through the mountains for the B&O railway during the early 1900’s. It's a small road now that is part of The American Discovery Trail for through hikers. It follows beside the river providing spectacular views of wooded mountains, rapids and waterfalls! It’s also a great place for casual walks, bike rides or a morning run.
Take in the stars fireside, listen to the rolling sounds of whitewater, and connect with family and friends in a most welcoming and unlikely place.
