At the intersection, TURN RIGHT onto Route WV-80 N. Gilbert Presbyterian Church will be on the right.

After crossing the Robert Goodman bridge at "Tamcliffe" you are getting close.  At the end of the bridge the road curves steep to the right.
Drive a short distance..on the right, stop in front of the first rustic cabin (sitting close to the road.)  You should see "Destiny Drive;" &
large sign, "CaneBrake."  Turn right onto Destiny Drive (which is a graveled road that goes down over a small hill.)  Go past Kermit's
Kabin and another house on your left.  The CaneBrake Cabin is on the left at the end of the lane.  Feel Free to let yourself in.

LOCAL DIRECTIONS TO CANEBRAKE - COMING IN TO GILBERT ON WV-80 S (from Logan/Man, WV area)--
Unless you are very familiar with "Route 10" between Logan & Man, and due to narrow roads, I do not recommend this route
From Logan take WV-10 S to Man, appx 13 miles
From Man follow WV-80 S to Verner, appx 11 miles to Verner.  (FYI - Verner is about 5 miles before you get to Gilbert--if you see the
"Welcome To Gilbert" sign then you have gone too far.)  When you get to Verner keep driving until you see a large sign "CaneBrake" & a
rustic cabin on your left.  
Option 1:  Use this option if you are driving without a trailer.  After the large sign, "CaneBrake," Take your time to turn left onto Destiny
Drive (which is a graveled road that goes down over a small hill.)  Go past Kermit's Kabin and another house on your left.  The
CaneBrake Cabin is on the left at the end of the lane.  Feel Free to let yourself in.

Option 2:  Use this option if you are driving with a trailer.  Go past the large "CaneBrake" sign just a very short distance & pull off on the
right at the first opportunity.  Turn around.  Go back to the large CaneBrake Sign and Take your time in turning right onto Destiny Drive
(which is a graveled road that goes down over a small hill.)  Go past Kermit's Kabin and another house on your left.  The CaneBrake
Cabin is on the left at the end of the lane.  Feel Free to let yourself in.
