The cabin is situated on a 60 acre farm nestled in the valley. The Bluestone River runs around the boundaries of the farm. Beautiful mountain views provide a peaceful setting for both sunrise and sunset. The Greenbrier and New River, Bluestone Lake and Dam are close by. Floating down the Greenbrier River is breathtakingly beautiful, soothing, and kayaking on the Bluestone River is a great way to relax!
The main level of this historic cabin has a sunporch that allows viewing of deer as they graze in the pastures. There is a kitchen, dining room and comfortable living room with flat screen TV (Dish). 2 comfy recliners and fireplace. Queen bedroom and sitting area. The front door opens onto a porch with antique rocking chairs.. There is one bath with shower on the main level.

Each room is appointed with beautiful antique quilts, old trunks, and pieces of furniture used on the farm. It is like a museum! Sip your morning coffee while watching the deer graze in the pastures.
If you are looking for pampered, modern conveniences this is not your place. If you want peace, quiet, tranquility amid old relics, antiques, and farm pastures you will enjoy this property. The homestead is much like it was during the time it was built (early 1900s). It is intended to give visitors and guests an idea of how living on the farm in the early years might have been, with a few updated amenities (tiled bath, Wi-Fi). Our guests tell us its like 'revisiting their childhood when ‘going to Grandma's house'.
Life on the farm remain pretty much the way the it was when grandma lived there in the early 1900's. Guests today have a few more modern conveniences including wifi, cable tv, and . . . a nice indoor bathroom, replacing the old outhouse that once stood on the farm.
Experience the freshness of the cool mountain filled with the sound of owls and crickets chirping softly in the stillness..
If a rain should be falling on the old tin roof, you're in for a special treat. There's nothing like listening to the soothing raindrops as you curl up with a good book or nap the entire afternoon.
The farm comes with a 4-legged security system named Diesel who watches over all who visit, barks upon your arrival, and waits for his biscuit treat!
Guests can go for a walk to the old barn, go fishing or kayaking in the river, watch deer graze in the pastures, or make conversation around the crackling firepit while roasting marshmallows and taking in the beauty of a clear, starlit night.
Time stands still at this old farm, rusted glimpses of days gone by, inviting guests to visit and remember when life was simpler. Paradise awaits!

Coming and going went smoothly, stay was comfortable. We visited several areas doing some ancestry hunting. Weather was great. It was a peaceful and enjoyable stay.
This place felt like stepping into a cozy little time capsule in the best way.We came for a weekend reset and it delivered. Pipestem Resort State Park was a short drive away with great hiking, and Dolly’s Diner, about 10 to 15 minutes out, was so good we went twice. Affordable and delicious.The property is beautiful, with mature trees, picnic tables, and a large fire pit that made for perfect slow evenings. The marshmallow sticks on the sun porch were a thoughtful touch.Inside, everything was very comfortable, and the decor added so much character. Vintage pieces throughout, including white nightgowns in the bedrooms and a spinning wheel in the loft.We also loved the printed history of the farm and local recommendations waiting on the kitchen table.Peaceful, a little nostalgic, and genuinely relaxing. We would absolutely stay again.
My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay on this beautiful, peaceful property! The cabin was cozy and clean. The antique decor brought back so many childhood memories! Would definitely recommend for someone looking to unwind.
This was our second stay at the cabin and once again, it did not disappoint. Everything about this place is exceptional. We love the antique decor, the peaceful surroundings, the comfortable bed, and Diesel the dog!
The kitchen and bath are furnished so well with anything you could possibly need.
We only hope we can stay there again!!
This place was just as described. We enjoyed getting back early each evening just to sit in the sunroom or walk along the field. And we liked having the kitchen for breakfast as well. Just a very pleasant stay if you like old cabins and antiques.
A Wonderful place to get away and relax! Beautiful historic cabin built by the owner's grandfather. Loved reading the story of this family. Great for couples. Also lots of places to visit nearby. We enjoyed every minute. Thanks Carla!
A little hard to find the driveway after dark, but a nice quiet place to relax. And the guard dog is a great companion for your nature walks, he is a gentle giant.
I had a very nice stay at the cabin. It’s exactly as described. It was comfortable and had everything you need. Diesel was a welcomed friend as well. He came by in the mornings for his biscuit and even kept me company by the campfire. I’d definitely rent again.
We absolutely loved this property, a first for my husband and I to stay in a historic home. We got the feeling of being back in time when we entered the home. So beautifully decorated!!! Thanks to the owner for allowing us to stay in your family home!!! Beautiful farm!!!
It was so peaceful-something I needed for a minute in time. Perfect location to Princeton, which is where I had to do some business as well as where my relatives live. I loved watching the deer play in the field. They were truly beautiful.
