We enjoyed staying at Thistle Dew while visiting Blackwater Falls State park and surrounding areas. The place is great and ideal for staying with family and friends. Highly recommended!* suggest an illuminated house number and properly marked driveway for convenient night time check-in.

State Park 70th Birthday Celebration

My 93 year old mom and 5 of her children loved our stay celebrating my brother. Your home was perfectly located for Blackwater, Canaan and the epic Dolly Sods. I hope to come back in June to celebrate with my sister in law 60th birthday.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle

Host profile image
My sister, Missy and I, manage our family home. Missy lives in Ripley, WV with her husband, Rob and their dog Brock. I live in Morgantown, WV with my two kids, Madison and Matthew. I'm a graduate of WVU and now work there in the Education department. This home was the dream of our parents, which started more than 30 years ago.

Why they chose this property

We realize you have many options to choose from! So, let us tell you why we've decided to offer our home to you. As Missy and I vacation with our families across the US, we have come to value the home owners who have thought of everything to make our stay comfortable... from extra throw blankets, games and toys for your kids, crock pots and ample dishes, we hope we've thought of everything to help you feel at home in our home! Its brand new, yet very simple. If there's something you don't love, we want to hear about it, so we can try to change it for our future guests!

What makes this property unique

You'll love our private lot and the overwhelming quiet from the front porch. Memories will be made sitting around the fire, and playing board games in our game room. We sincerely hope you'll take a leisurely walk around the property and down the road... you never know what you might see along the way!
