Hidden Gem!
My husband and I along with my sister and her husband stayed in this charming home last weekend. I instantly fell in love with this place. The home has been beautifully crafted on the inside and outside. It’s in a rural location and has so many things to offer if you like mountains, rivers and wildlife. We rode our bikes on the trail by the Jackson River and enjoyed every second of the beautiful scenery. We did run into some evidence of bears and saw plenty of deer. We visited the nearby Lake Moomaw and saw two bald eagles. The home was extremely clean and we had everything we could ask for. The beds are very comfy and we slept well after days full of nature and activity. I love this place and hope to come for a longer stay in the summer. The check in process was a breeze.

We had a wonderful trip to the mountains. The property was clean and beautiful. It was exactly as pictured in the Vrbo app. We are looking forward to another visit soon.

About the host

Hosted by Zazi

Host profile image
I have West Virginia roots and have always loved the mountains, and being outdoors. We love our mountain homestead, but also enjoy a little adventure to add spice to our family life. As a child I loved all the various forms of water, and swimming, boating, and sunsets on the beach still spark joy and inspiration for me. We decided to start hosting as a way to fulfill our wish for a home away from home, one that gives the opportunity for beautiful and inspiring experiences to our family, friends, and guests.

Why they chose this property

My family fell in love with this area because of all it has to offer. We have kids from toddler to teen, and there's something here for everyone. A day at Lake Moomaw is always a wonderful day for us, whether on the beach, on the boat, enjoying watersports or paddling the canoe. And there's always more to explore: strolling another stretch of the scenic trail, floating another stretch of the Jackson. What do you want to do today? Check out Falling Springs Waterfall, go soak in the historical baths, walk the grounds at the Homestead, or enjoy one of their sumptuous buffets? Drive into Hot Springs and see if the brewery is open tonight, or down to Covington to the movie theater with recliners, or to Garth Newel for a top notch musical performance? We just don't get tired of it!

What makes this property unique

Near a plethora of attractions and right off a small paved road, the property is easy to access but provides a sense of seclusion, being bordered by national forest. Cleared fields give a feeling of expansion, and the sounds of the nearby river, a feeling of tranquility. Beautiful red cedar and custom woodwork lends this newly renovated barn a touch of magic that blends old world beauty with modern comforts.
