Sobre esta propriedade

Entire house on a remote sheep farm , tended for 45 years

Day trips to the just established New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. No virus in these hills and hollows, too remote! Come and enjoy the a vacation worry-free!
Welcome to a quiet farm in the Appalachian Mountains. We have a 100 acre mountain farm with two creeks and miles long views in all directions. The only sounds are Pileated woodpeckers, lambs calling for their mothers and a very rare plane overhead. The sheep love attention and are happy to pretend to pose for photos.

The house is a two story three bedroom timber frame with solar and wood heat that can sleep ten adults or 16 total with children on mattresses on the floor.
The kitchen has a full complement of all necessary cooking resources, a gas stove and oven, (which is working fine contrary to a sour guest's 'warning'), two refrigerators and one freezer, spring water of the highest quality, so there is no need for bottled water.

Pocahontas County, a brilliant gem in these mountains, has many local resources, the Greenbrier River and its Trail, the Cranberry Wilderness Area, for hiking, fishing and cross country skiing, Snowshoe Ski Resort, the best skiing in the East south of New England and the Gauley River for white water rafting in the fall, also the best rafting east of the Mississippi.

We really enjoyed our stay! It was a unique property with so much history in it. The views were incredible! The drive can be a little daunting for those of us not used to it but we made it fine in a couple of mid size suvs.

Lovely grounds and a lovely stay

We stayed with our two little kids on this beautiful enchanting farm for a week and really enjoyed our time. It was exactly what we were looking for, a spot to disconnect for a bit, slow down, and to be in nature. We loved spending time getting to know Dan and the sheep as well! Would love to return again in the future!

Wonderful getaway

Our families with toddlers enjoyed a stay at this farm in West Virginia. House has its personality, with a great view on the surrounding hills. The owner is a very hospitable person. Kids were happy to feed the sheep, jump in a hay, walk in the hills. Nearby it is interesting to visit Beartown state park, Lost Worlds caves.

Met all expectations

The house and property are amazing the craftsmanship of the house was outstanding. It was definitely lived in with many personal touches but we felt at home. Dan was very helpful in locating all the places we wanted to visit. The directions on how to find the house were spot on. The entire stay was an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend staying here and I hope to come back for another visit

Beautiful and right in the middle of caving counrty!

If you're into caving and are looking for a place to stay while in WV this is it. Its a beautiful farm that is peaceful and quiet. And it sits directly over the Friars Hole cave system. Just make sure you bring your food with you because its a long haul to the nearest supermarket!

Sheep heaven

Such a great experience. Everything we were looking for. Remote, quiet and still all the amenities we needed for 6 people ages 7 - 80! Everyone was impressed with Dan’s attentiveness and hospitality. Sitting on the porch in warm weather, and inside with equally great views of the sheep and surrounding hills. Walking on the property and feeding the sheep!! We will be back!!

What a beautiful property and home and interesting and kind owner. Read the conditions closely. This home is very off the grid. No TV and little internet. He is up front about that. It made for great conversations! If you are looking for a unique stay this is a great place!

a secret in the woods!

This is not your typical VRBO! This is an adventure in the woods. Quaint and rustic and charming with a wonderful host. If you need fancy linens and fancy kitchenware this is not for you. But if you like the magic of shade trees and the feel of comfortable and worn and breezes on the hill and the sound of sheep in the valley then this is a magical place is for you!

Pictures don't do it justice

Dan's timber-framed home is spacious and comfortable, with fantastic views of the hillsides and mountains in every direction. Sit in the fragrant sunroom, sipping coffee and watch the sheep browsing their way across the hillside in the early morning sun. You're just a half hour drive from Cranberry wilderness and Monongahela national wilderness. Dan is kind and attentive and the farmhouse reflects his appreciation for craftsmanship.

Jesse and his family were a delight to have here, they had all the good guests qualities, polite and friendly and high quality communication skills. Their two year old son was fascinated by the sheep, but still a little uncertain as they are larger than he. Their visit seemed like a good break from the DC area. I wish them well.

Beautiful!

This is a beautiful property! You can see many stars at night in the sky! The sheep are friendly! I thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside at the side of the house overlooking a pasture and up the mountain. A great place to get away! Daniel has very old items that he could open a museum with. The house was very homey and beautiful. I will say that you may think that you’re lost when you’re driving to the back of the hollow but never fear, you will find it! Thank you Daniel for your hospitality and welcoming us into your home!

Unique and Delightful Experience

This is a working sheep farm in a spectacular long north/south running valley framed by mountain ridges to the east and west. The house, with magnificent woodwork and attention to detail, was built by the owner over 40 years ago. The owner moves to a little cottage while you occupy his home. He is an eminently graceful host and knowledgeable about the many activities in the greater area. I was content to sitting on the porch absorbing the sights, sounds, and fresh air of true countryside.

Peaceful, perfect location in the Mountains.

Six of us stayed on Dan's Farm during an ADV (Adventure) Motorcycle trip. We rode a few sections of the local Mid-Atlantic Backcountry Discovery Route which passed by about 30 min from the farm. The grounds and capacity helped us decide on the location and it did not disappoint. Dan was a great host. We found everything we needed in the house. If we find ourselves traveling to the area again I would not hesitate to stay here again. Definitely a centralized point to some awesome riding (suited for ADV riders). House has enough room to fit decent size groups. Dan is an extremely knowledgeable man and it shows with the mountain of books around the place. The house is a perfect hang out, wind down after some extreme riding nearby.

The peace and quiet you crave

this place was out in the middle of nowhere but was amazing. It was so quiet you could hear your ears ringing. the sky was clear and beautiful we saw shooting stars, the milky way and just beautiful night sky. if your in to books this is a place to explore. the owner had to have thousands of books and they were all well organized. some of the books were published in the early 1900’s. the host was very friendly and I am assuming that he put a lot of love into building this home. The only drawbacks I had was that the beds were not very comfortable and the living room furniture is very worn. this place is really out by itself but was so peaceful and actually forced our family to communicate and spend quality time together. I would definitely recommend.

Second Time at Dan’s Farm

This was my second time staying at Dan’s farm. Each time, I visited with a different group of 4-5 friends. If you are looking for a beautiful, remote, quiet trip, this sheep farm is an incredible option. Located in the mountains of West Virginia, the farm feels far from the outside world, but provides a great background for long walks, sleeping in, cooking, warm baths, board games, and reading. The land around the home is vast and free to explore — my friends interested in birdwatching especially enjoyed walks in the area. Otherwise, my favorite parts are the beautiful kitchen and dining area as well as the porch that look over the hills of the area. Dan is a more than hospitable host whose home provides so much comfort. This was my second visit here, but certainly not my last.

Beautiful location and farm

It was a beautiful farm off grid. Overall Daniel was great communicating the expectations and check in. The house was rustic and charming; but could use a deep cleaning.and ventilation. We went end of June and the house was very hot by the end of the day. So it was dusty and stuffy. The tiny desk fans were not enough to cool us down. But then again this a farm and creature comforts are not the highlight. All that said the picturesque window , swallows, lightning bugs and sheep were beautiful to wake up to. Aidan the house cat was very friendly. Beartown boardwalk and cranberry glades are 25 and 45 minutes away and beautiful walks on the boardwalk and the falls hills creek hike.

Apurna's experience was unfortunately compromised as they arrived well after dark, which in turn prevented me from explaining how to easily keep a passive solar house cool in summer. Stuffy? The house has four screened doors and 22 windows and a whole house fan. When asked later the next day, the response was 'Everything is fine." What is one to to do?

Amazing destination

Our family of 4 adults and a toddler had an amazing long weekend at Dan’s home in WV. The views from the huge porch and solarium were beautiful on the Fall weekend. The house is truly an incredible “home” that Dan shares with his guests; it’s beautiful inside and out. Even when the temperatures were below freezing at night the house was very comfortable. We felt no need to leave the property and cooked in the fully appointed kitchen (and yes the oven worked fine). If you are looking for a cookie cutter property this is not the place but if you want an incredibly amazing destination Dan’s place is the perfect spot! Dan was a great host, he walked us through the uniqueness of the house, the property and the scenic options in the area. We had several wonderful conversations and look forward to continuing these on what I’m sure will be future visits. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Great stay

It was a rare pleasure for our family to stay on Dan's farm. The house is a gem, informed in so many details by Dan's eye for the beautiful, and his warmth. Dan was a generous, kind host, opening his home to us fully as if to family members, and we delighted in getting to know him. The location is superb. Our daughter enjoyed meeting the sheep and feeding the ducks, my father-in-law enjoyed walks on the property. It rained much of the time we were there, but we were content to enjoy it from such a cozy, lovely vantage point. The internet worked well throughout our stay, allowing me to get needed work done. We brought food with us and cooked everything at home; to have done otherwise might have been cumbersome in the remote location, but we enjoyed the slow pace and home-cooked meals. We lacked for nothing. We certainly hope to be back. Thank you for the kale from the garden; it was delicious.

Peaceful remote farm place for family & friends gathering

Such a lovely place with lot of memory (host’s life) in every bit of the house. It will take you hours just to see everything in the house and trust me it will be like a rustic museum in a good way. We had a another tiny host ( Aiden the cat ) who also welcomed and stayed with us without any trouble. Dan helped us with everything and you ll realise how good he is once you meet him. We loved the sheep and when we went it was a winter wonderland and we were sledding in the slopes and having fun like kids. Just make sure you have a 4WD since the very last lane of the road is very steep and rugged. And you might want to download offline map since there will not be any service. And last but not the least please respect this place because this man has built a legacy of his life and we appreciate he is letting people to enjoy it a bit with these stays. Note: The water from kitchecn tap is amazing 😍 … we were hestitate at first and loved drinking it . I even filled a gallon of it in my bottle for travel back.

Authentic Experience

My family and I have stayed in many vacation homes with some missing the mark while others exceed it. This is a different experience—Dan opens his home, full of character and personality, to allow you a peek into a different way of life, complete with your own support from someone so accommodating and knowledgeable. Come for the escape from the façade of busyness, and take the time here to recognize the different world turning in these hills. Perhaps even leave with a friend in Dan and Sparky. The home had everything we needed. No televisions and limited cell phone access was a nice reprieve and encouraged us to explore the home’s impressive collection of books and take in much of the moments. Beds were comfortable and I feel a silly pride of self-sufficiency in tending to the wood fireplace to the extent that we did. Dan even made us feel “helpful” in our sheep involvement, though I’m fairly certain our participation was purely limited to fascination. Looking forward to future trips!

"Almost heaven..... West Virginia"

We were just looking for a get away for some peace and quiet, which we received at Pocahontas Sheep Farm. But, I received so much more! Amazing scenery, a perfect host, and the most incredible experiences of seeing Life begin - actually watching Dan assist a sheep in the lambing process. It was truly a life changing experience for me! I was more of a city girl growing up and had never seen an animal actually give birth. Nothing else compares to that experience for me, but the wonderfully built home and its furnishings (oriental rugs, gorgeous carpentry, beautiful wood floors) as well as Dan, the owner, made this entire trip one of the best ever. So I totally recommend a trip out in the country for anyone who wants to feel alive, wants to get re-connected to nature, wants to just get away from the city, and wants to restore one's soul. This is the place where it all happens. Absolutely magical ----- almost heaven, indeed.
