Sundew Cottage - Trailheads & Powder Days Await!
Welcome to Sundew Cottage, perfectly tucked among the trees. With just as much outdoor living space as indoors, you’ll find plenty of room to relax, unwind, and soak up the fresh mountain air.
Located right between Canaan Valley and the charming town of Davis, adventure is waiting in every direction.
Best of all, Sundew Cottage is pet-friendly, so you can bring your four-legged friend along to share in the memories of your mountain getaway.
Sundew Cottage sits on 11 private acres of forest and meadow, giving you a true mountain escape. The land is rich with natural springs, shaded hemlock groves, and lush rhododendron thickets. Wander among mossy fields dotted with huckleberry bushes and extra large boulders, it’s a landscape that feels wild, peaceful, and uniquely West Virginia.
Sundew Cottage has a nearly identical twin house located right next to it, called Trout Lily Cottage. Both cottages are part of the property referred to as "The Fens," and each appropriately named after native plants found in West Virginia wetlands.
Guests have access to the entire house excluding one owners closet under the stairs.
Best way to contact me is through the app or Airbnb Website. I'm also happy to chat in person or answer questions if you see me on the property.
Dogs are welcome, but please plan accordingly, ALL dogs must be crated if you plan on leaving them alone in the house.

I come up to Canaan Valley quite often in the winter for skiing, and the biggest factor for me is easy access — getting in and out without any hassle. This place absolutely nailed that. The drive in is flat, and the drive out to the main road is flat as well — a huge plus in the winter.The property is very secluded and features a lovely wraparound deck that would be great in the warmer months. The driveway was plowed and well maintained, which made everything simple and stress-free.It’s perfect for one or two people. We stayed over the weekend, and the place was spotless and very well furnished. The kitchen was thoroughly stocked with basics like oil, salt, and pepper, which I really appreciated since I’ve rented places before that didn’t have any of that. The pots and pans were excellent quality. I didn’t use the oven, but everything else was great. The bathroom was perfect, and the washer and dryer were brand new and worked flawlessly.
