Escape to a secluded farmhouse nestled atop a sprawling hill, surrounded by a serene river and protected state forest. This tranquil retreat boasts its own private lake, perfect for fishing and kayaking under the clear West Virginia skies renowned for their darkness, ideal for stargazing.

The 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse comfortably sleeps 7, offering a cozy haven amidst mature hardwoods, wildflowers, and vast hayfields. Wake up to the melody of birds and the gentle rush of river rapids, with occasional sightings of local wildlife like the mythical 14-point buck and majestic bald eagles.

Experience magical sunsets, evening campfires, and breathtaking views of the Wild West Virginia mountains. Explore hilltop trails along the Little Kanawha river within a private, gated 150-acre complex, and revel in nighttime views of the Milky Way amidst flickering fireflies and echoing bullfrog calls.

Unwind with catch-and-release fishing at the lake, relax in the gazebo, or explore the waters with provided kayaks, paddle boats, and a pontoon boat. Enjoy outdoor cooking with propane BBQs and ample firewood for cozy campfires and S'mores.

The farmhouse features a well-equipped kitchen ideal for culinary adventures, complete with a Keurig coffee maker, essential cooking supplies, and multiple appliances. Up to 2 pets are welcome indoors, with fees included.

Country getaway
Spacious house on a vast farm property with walking trails, lake, and the ability to get away from it all. The directions sent by the host we're spot on and very helpful. I'm so happy we were able to bring the dogs and let them explore, get in the lake, and chase a deer or two. A lot of things were provided like dog bowls and a few spices, oil, foil. Definitely bring groceries or plan on going to the nearest grocery store about 20 minutes away. Loved our time away and plan on going back!

Slice of Heaven
This property is amazing! We have 2 Labs and they had plenty of room to run, play, and swim. We caught tons of fish in the lake (including a 7lb largemouth my son caught), enjoyed the boat and kayaks, watched three red fox pups playing every day, saw the bald eagle in its nest and my kids (13 & 15) loved visiting Toughie the horse who always came up to say hello. The view from the huge covered front porch is a great place to relax and enjoy your morning coffee or watch the occasional thunderstorm roll through. The Smith's are wonderful hosts, and we will definitely be returning in the future.

Phenomenal!
There are no words that can capture the beauty and tranquility of this property. The home is beautiful and the amenities are an added bonus. We didn't want to leave and neither did our dog. We would love to return.

Great Place!!
Immaculate place. Superbly decorated. Very quiet. Nice linen: beds, sheets, blankets, towels. Comfortable for party of six - eight for supper. Nicely supplied with k-cup coffee brewer, grilling utensils, dishes, gas grill, etc. Saw deer and wild turkeys from the rocking chairs on the front porch. Orchestra of fireflies in the evening and early morning illuminating throughout the valley - quite an experience! We brought our German shepherd; the hosts even had bowls and biscuits for her. Thankful that the Smith's opened their special section of the world to us. Hope to return sometime.

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.
