Accommodations

In 2000, we purchased two cottages that are adjacent to our property. We have decided to offer them for vacation rentals because we love where we live and want to share it with others. We have 80 acres of unspoiled natural forest, surrounded on the east and west by the George Washington National Forest. Abundant wildlife, wildflowers and birds abound. There are nature trails and a private pond for guests to enjoy. Our two homes are for weekly or weekend rentals. They are:

Dave's Cottage

This home was built in l987. The wood for this house, inside and out, was timbered from the mountain property surrounding our home and milled at our custom sawmill, from the frame to the finely finished wood paneling. It sits on the side of a mountain and is secluded from others' sight. Surrounded by forest, you can relax on the wrap around porch and enjoy mountain views, natural surroundings, or grazing deer in the small field below. Nature trails abound as well as a private pond. The main floor of the house includes a fully equipped kitchen with microwave and coffee maker, open living room with a stone fireplace, one bedroom (double) and a full bath with washing machine (outside clothesline). The open upstairs loft sleeps four (one queen, two twins) and has a half bath. There is also a sleep sofa in the living room.

In 2000, after many years of negotiations, we were delighted to purchase this historic fishing cabin that adjoins our property. Six months of restoration and rebuilding have resulted in a lovely home for guest rentals. Come experience seventy years of history as you enjoy the modern conveniences that were added to this charming cottage from the 1940's. With a fully equipped kitchen (Home Comfort cook stove, also), microwave and coffee maker, 3 ½ bedrooms (1 double, 5 twins) and 1 ½ baths, this home is great for families that need a lot of space. There are four separate porches and a uniquely paneled sitting room with fireplace where fishermen once gathered to tell their stories. The home overlooks our pond where guests may enjoy the natural surroundings. The North Fork of the Tye River runs past the front porch where you can find native fish or sit and experience the ever changing bold mountain stream.

Both homes offer a family friendly atmosphere while experiencing the seclusion and unique history of the mountains of Nelson County.
