Excellent, quiet, safe neighborhood. Very clean and comfortable. We met family there and had a great time. Plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of parking. Beautiful view. Lots of supplies for cooking. HVAC kept us comfy. Plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Plenty of towels and washcloths. Great location! We would love to stay here again.
We have been meeting as a group for 40 years and this home met our needs 100 percent. The property is well maintained and accomodating. Many thanks to Michele for the great stay.
stayed here for our annual long weekend getaway with 2 other families. House was great, clean, well maintained, and only short distance from X-C skiing, downhill skiing, sledding and tubing! Have already booked again for next year.
We had a great stay at the house. It had lots of room for 11 of us to spread out, and it's nicer than the pictures show. We enjoyed the ping pong table and that the kitchen was fully stocked.

We had a great time. Very comfortable, clean, and convenient
The house and property are truly beautiful, house is updated. Large space is just a great stay.
Michelle is a great host and so accommodating and understanding. Looking forward to spending another time there. All of us had a great time.
The house was stocked with anything you would need. It has gorgeous views of the mountains in the back, with a huge fire pit. The front had a large covered deck, perfect for hanging out with family or friends. There were two living rooms and a ping pong table for the kids to enjoy. The upstairs had a nice loft and office area in addition to the bedrooms.
Best Layout for Family and Friends -- Spacious and Quiet
Easily accessible yet hidden down a wonderful lane. Lots and lots of space in the house -- great quiet areas and rooms. Host / owner terrific at communicating. Well-stocked, fast wifi, and lots of kitchen utensils, toys, chairs, etc. All great. Will stay here again.
Its our third year renting this space. The house has a good spacious layout with a bonus ping pong table in the garage. The view from the house is lovely. Its easy to access. Zero negatives to say on this place. We will be back.
This house is spacious and well-appointed. It was perfect for our family of fourteen. The children loved the yard and the games and bikes available to them. A neighbor brought us flowers for our table and made us feel so welcome.
Spacious home with thoughtful amenities. Enough room for us to spread out when necessary. Host is very communicative and thoughtful. Bikes, ping-pong, board games, supplies...it was all there. We love this house. It is clean and comfortable. We will be back next year!
We were at Thistle Dew for a 3 night annual family reunion. Four families were in four different rentals and all agreed that ours was the best!! With two living areas, a garage with ping pong, two covered porches, large dining table, kitchen with bar seating, five bedrooms, four baths, large loft area, and air conditions, what else do you need? The host was super great and makes sure everything is clean & well appointed. We will be staying again next year!!
Rented Thistle Dew for one week with son and his family. House was spacious and designed to accomodate large groups, including 5 bedrooms, 4, baths, large dining area, etc. Numerous accessories / amenities make this a true "home-away-from-home." Great communication with owner who took a personal interest in our stay. Located near Canaan Valley / Timberline Ski areas, Blackwater Falls State Park as well as towns of .Davis and Thomas for shopping, dining and entertainment. On future visits, this will be the first property I will check for availability. Excellent overall / Highly recommended A++.
This was our third time staying here. You can tell the owners put a lot of effort into maintaining the cleanliness of the house.
The views from the front porch are better than pictured. There are plenty of activities near by, but we almost never leave the house. We ride bikes, play games, and play outside in the yard.
The owners are very nice and helpful.
We come to this area specifically to stay at this house. We hope to come back as many years as they'll have us.

About the host
Hosted by Michelle
My sister, Missy and I, manage our family home. Missy lives in Ripley, WV with her husband, Rob and their dog Brock. I live in Morgantown, WV with my two kids, Madison and Matthew. I'm a graduate of WVU and now work there in the Education department. This home was the dream of our parents, which started more than 30 years ago.
Why they chose this property
We realize you have many options to choose from! So, let us tell you why we've decided to offer our home to you. As Missy and I vacation with our families across the US, we have come to value the home owners who have thought of everything to make our stay comfortable... from extra throw blankets, games and toys for your kids, crock pots and ample dishes, we hope we've thought of everything to help you feel at home in our home! Its brand new, yet very simple. If there's something you don't love, we want to hear about it, so we can try to change it for our future guests!
What makes this property unique
You'll love our private lot and the overwhelming quiet from the front porch. Memories will be made sitting around the fire, and playing board games in our game room. We sincerely hope you'll take a leisurely walk around the property and down the road... you never know what you might see along the way!
