West Virginia Cabin Vacations

Say the word Gauley in West Virginia, and you'll most likely be given directions to a river known for world-class whitewater rafting and stunning scenery.  But there's another smaller Gauley worth exploring on West Virginia family vacations, the Gauley River Pottery in Mount Lookout, WV. 

From batter bowls to piggy banks with cork noses, this pottery offers glazes that are inspired by natural colors and have names like "Gauley Green", "Cranberry Mountain Sunset"  and "New River Nights".  Hand thrown on a wheel, no two peices of pottery are exactly alike, so if you find a piece you love, it's worth grabbing it up to take home - you won't see another like it.

Take some time off from playing hard in the great outdoors and add an artistic adventure to your vacation.  The Gauley River Pottery is only a short drive from our West Virginia cabin rentals, and you can drive up to get your very own handmade WV Mug to carry home with you.
