About this property
Trout Lily Cottage at The Fens
Escape to Trout Lily Cottage, a modern yet cozy retreat, made for those who crave a little adventure and a lot of quiet. With equal space indoors and out, you can start your morning with coffee on the deck and crisp mountain air.
Located between Canaan Valley and Davis. Outdoor adventure, local charm, and scenic views are never far away. The perfect basecamp for exploring West Virginia’s wild beauty.
Your dog is welcome too, because every good adventure deserves a wagging tail.
Trout Lily 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.
Trout Lily Cottage has a nearly identical twin house located right next to it, called Sundew 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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This is the cutest cabin, very clean and well stocked. Kate was very helpful and available for any questions. I would recommend and will stay again while in this area.
Kate was amazing with communication and ensured we had everything we could possibly need! The property was beautiful and secluded and was the perfect space for us. The view from the bedroom was absolutely stunning and the place was super clean and organized! Would absolutely recommend this place as the location is very convenient and the price is well worth it!
Everything was wonderful! Very clean. Very comfortable. The host was very helpful

Lovely cottage—very clean and cozy. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped with great cookware. The only thing that could make the place even better would be window curtains, especially downstairs. The host was extremely helpful, and communication was quick and smooth. Highly recommended!

About the host
Hosted by Kate Preston
I'm a Canaan Valley native, but I've moved in and out of town a few times. I'm a woodworker, snow/mountain/ocean enthusiast, adventure educator, ski shop manager, sailor, dog lover, and small business owner. Hosting allows me to share the place I love most.
Why they chose this property
I lived in this neighborhood, but its also the perfect location between town and valley proper. Close to everything, but not far from anything!
What makes this property unique
I designed and built both Sundew Cottage and Trout Lily Cottage. They are located just off an already quiet road, but only 2 minutes from the main highway.
