The Space:
Mountain air drifts through the trees as you step onto the porch, the quiet broken only by the sounds of nature around you. Evenings invite you to sink into the hot tub while the crisp West Virginia night settles in, and inside, warm light fills the open living space as the fireplace becomes the natural gathering point. This is a place to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the calm of a mountain escape.
Living space
The home features a bright, open two-story living area with a loft that creates an easy flow between relaxing, dining, and cooking. Comfortable seating makes it simple to gather for board games, movie nights on the Smart TV, or quiet conversations. Central heating keeps the space comfortable throughout the colder months, making it just as inviting after a day outdoors as it is for a restful evening in.
Sleeping arrangements
Two private bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for up to four guests.
Bedroom 1 on the main level features a king bed
Bedroom 2 on the upper level features a queen bed
A full bathroom is conveniently located to serve both bedrooms, making the layout well suited for couples, families, or a small group traveling together.
Kitchen and dining
The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing meals during your stay, with space to cook, gather, and enjoy time together indoors. A dining table offers seating for shared meals, card games, or a warm cup of coffee while planning the day ahead.
Outdoor living
Step outside to enjoy the fresh mountain air from the spacious deck and patio areas. String lighting adds a cozy glow after sunset, a welcoming place to warm up and make s’mores on evenings. The hot tub is available year-round. Outdoor seating and a BBQ grill allow you to enjoy the surroundings when conditions allow.
Family and pet-friendly touches
The home is pet-friendly and well suited for families, with children’s books, toys, dinnerware, and board games available. A private entrance and generous outdoor space add to the ease and comfort of traveling with little ones or four-legged companions.
Pet Policy
We’re happy to welcome dogs to join you on your getaway! Please note that due to allergies, we’re unable to accommodate cats. A $29 pet fee applies per furry friend, per night to help cover additional cleaning and care. Thanks for understanding—we look forward to hosting you and your pup!

Good to know
WiFi is provided and works well for streaming and video calls, though speeds may vary due to the remote mountain setting. The natural environment means you may notice seasonal outdoor elements such as leaves or pollen on decks and walkways, even after cleaning.

We loved our stay here. Very quiet, pretty setting, great hot tub, comfy couch for relaxing. Keep in mind that the road to the house is gravel and very bumpy. Also note that the water has a strong sulfur smell, if you are sensitive to scents. Definitely recommend at stay here for a mountain weekend!
