Other things to note
This property is very secluded on 36 acres and down a private gravel lane shared with only a few neighbors with locked gate (bring flash light). Cell service is spotty with access on some high ridges. Inside the house, there is highspeed WiFi so you can connect your cell phone. Property is only 3 miles from Lost River State Park that has hiking trails, horses, pool, ranger station, etc. The main road is popular for cyclists too. Try the new amazing Pizza + Provisions just 7 miles east! The closest grocery store is in Moorefield about 25 minutes west. There is a small milk/gas shop about 15 minutes east. We recommend going to a grocery store before arriving. Farmers market or road side stands are great when in season. Please see our Guide Book under the Location section called "Where you'll be".
*This property is very secluded in the mountains. There is no general cell service for about 20 minute drive except on high ridges. You can use your cell inside the house by connecting to the WiFi. We have a landline for local calls.
*Typically a discount for full week of 7 nights.
*BONUS TREEHOUSE ADD OPTION! Please inquire for a reservation during warm months. $200 per night with a two night minimum.
*Your stay includes trash service for 8 bags. Please do not leave trash outside of cans or the lids unsecured. Wildlife will tear into it and create a huge mess and there will be an added fee. The local trash service doesn't recycle, so please consider bringing that home with you for recycling if possible.
