About this property

Come stay at a secluded farmhouse on top of a large hill, surrounded by a river & protected state forest with its own private lake for fishing and kayaking. It's a perfect family getaway and great for stargazing as it's a unique location with skies as dark as national and state parks.

This 3 bedroom 2 bath retreat sleeps 7 and is well groomed and full of wildlife. Mature hardwoods and wildflowers abound in the hay and horse fields. Enjoy your morning coffee to the sound of birds, river rapids and if you're lucky, you may spot the mythical 14 point buck and his doe or the bald eagle pair that nest across the river. Magical sunsets, campfires, and beautifully Wild West Virginia mountain views.

Enjoy hilltop views and walks along the Little Kanawha river in a private, gated 150 acre complex. See incredible night-time views of the Milky Way, fireflies flashing in the trees and fields while listening to bullfrogs croaking.

Abundant catch and release fishing on the lake is permitted. Limited tackle available. At the lake there is plenty to do: a gazebo, BBQ grill, 2 kayaks, 2 bikes, 1 pontoon boat and 2 paddle boats are available for your use. At the farmhouse, a propane BBQ and fire pit are available, with as much wood as you'd like to enjoy your campfire and S'mores.

Covered carport for 2 vehicles and additional parking for up to 4 more for a total of 6 cars. Gravel roads to hilltop farmhouse. ATV trails are 15 minutes away at Elizabeth, WV. There are no ATV trails on the farm.

Well-equipped kitchen for the traveling chef has a Keurig coffee maker, stand mixer, basic supplies (oils, salt & pepper, some spices), grilling and cooking utensils and multiple appliances. Two BBQ propane grills are available - 1 at the farmhouse and 1 at the gazebo.

Up to 2 pets permitted inside, fees included.

The tri-city region of Parkersburg, WV, Vienna, WV and Marietta, OH is 40 to 50 minutes away. Fine dining and ghost tours are available at the historic Blennerhasset Hotel in Parkersburg, WV.

Escape.

We all loved our stay so much that we had to add on an extra day. The house being on a hill allowed great a great view. A friendly horse often visited us from behind his fence. We relaxed by the lake in the shade, and used their mountain bikes and pontoon boat. They also had good books games TV and WiFi. Make sure you screenshot the instructions to get to the house, as you will lose cell reception a mile before getting there. The house is comfortable and clean with a well stocked kitchen. My children wanted to live there forever.

Beautiful, peaceful area

The farmhouse was lovely and comfortable, and we especially loved how quiet it was except for the sounds of nature. The gazebo by the lake was a delightful bonus, and we had a great time enjoying the water. This definitely made it on the list of places to come back!

Lovely Get Away Stay

We have been vacationing together as a three generation family group for 16 years. This house was lovely, clean and probably one of the best equipped and provisioned of all our stays. The house is located on a secluded hill on a huge farm. The covered porch is perfect for family time. We enjoyed swimming and boating on the lake, and fun time at a campfire. We highly recommend this property for any group wanting some quiet time to spend together.
