About this property
Mountaintop 2 BR Cottage on 100 peaceful acres
Gram's Place is built above an aircraft hangar (seldom used) but the terrain makes it a "ground level" experience.
In front of the cottage is a grass runway (seldom used).
The neighboring farm raises black angus cattle.
The driveway into Gram's Place is about 1 mile long. We recommend a vehicle with good clearance as the drive is gravel. We recommend AWD or 4WD if it's snowy. The drive, combined with an alternate four-wheel drive entrance creates a loop that is almost exactly one mile. If you like walking it is an enjoyable walk that includes views of the surrounding area, one of the ponds and elevation changes of about 200 feet.
Our little mountain has an unencumbered view to the west and north making for spectacular sunsets.
On clear nights the Milky Way stands out bold in the sky along with whatever constellations are in season.
We have plenty of dirt roads to hike, ride ATVs or horses.
Two small ponds stocked with Catfish and Blue Gill.
Permission to hunt and fish granted during your stay.
To top it off we have a nice fire pit to enjoy your evenings.

About the host
Hosted by Amy K
Robert and Amy have 8 children and enjoy living in the West Virginia Mountains. In addition to Gram's Place, The Briarpatch also has The Big House which has been our family home. The Big House is about 200 yards from Gram's. We do occasionally stay at the Big House and guests at Grams may see us coming and going.
Why they chose this property
If you are looking for a commuter base while working in the area, Gram's is probably not for you.
BUT, if you are looking for a place where you can relax and unwind, with modern comforts and country solitude Gram's may be for you.
Kids are free to roam, fish in the ponds and catch crawdads in the creek.
During hunting season we allow registered guests to hunt on the 100 acre parcel subject to state regulation and licensing requirements.
Sit out by the fire, roast some marshmallows or cook some silver turtles.
See a night sky full of stars.
