About this property

Corton Lodge Bell Tower | Riverfront

  • Escape to 180 private acres on the Elk River and stay in a beautifully restored 1913 church unlike anywhere else in West Virginia. — in your own private Bell Tower Suite.



    This is a fully private, self-contained 2-bedroom suite with its own entrance, kitchen, and living space — not the full lodge.



    Perfect for couples, families, or small groups, the Bell Tower Suite blends historic character with modern comfort in a one-of-a-kind setting.



    The Experience: Wake up to mountain air and the quiet sounds of nature. Step outside onto the wraparound deck, sip coffee overlooking the Elk River, and spend your day exploring, relaxing, or reconnecting.



    Enjoy access to: Private Elk River access for kayaking, tubing, swimming, and fishing

    A riverside pavilion just steps from the water

    A fire pit for evenings under the stars

    Over 4.5 miles of private trails across 180 acres



    Spacious 800 sq ft private suite

    2 bedrooms + cozy kids’ loft

    Full kitchen and comfortable living area

    Vaulted ceilings and original 1913 architectural details

    High-end West Virginia-made furniture



    What Makes It Unique:



    Corton Lodge was once a working church — and its character still lives in every detail.



    Original maple floors from 1913

    Handcrafted wood trim milled from local trees

    The original bell tower, still ringing daily



    Important Notes:



    This listing is for the private Bell Tower Suite only, not the entire lodge

    No events or parties permitted in this suite

    Ideal for 2–4 guests, with space for up to 6–7

    Pet-friendly (up to 2 dogs)
