Host profile image
I grew up in Pendleton County and presently resides at Sugar Grove, WV. I am married and have two daughters and a son.

Why they chose this property

The property joins my mothers's homeplace. I have many fond memories spending time visiting my grandfather. In the early 1900’s there were two Lumber camps on the property. It's a place of peace and comfort listening to the creek and watching nature.

What makes this property unique

Alpha’s Log Cabin was named after my grandmother. The cabin is a peaceful place and anyone who comes will find serenity and peace.
