Escape to the mountains and discover your own slice of Wild & Wonderful West Virginia. Tucked away in the George Washington National Forest on 2.53 private acres of mature woods and open meadow, this beautifully renovated, well-cared-for cottage offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and adventure.
Completely remodeled in 2021, this inviting retreat features two cozy bedrooms, a full bath with an energy-efficient on-demand hot water system, an open-concept living area, and an updated kitchen designed for gathering after a day outdoors. Thoughtfully maintained, the home also includes a newly installed well pump, new pressure tank, new stackable washer and dryer, high-speed fiber optic internet, and a spacious covered deck that has been recently stained and meticulously maintained. Spend your mornings with coffee on the covered deck, watch wildlife wander through the trees, or follow the gentle meadow to the peaceful stream at the base of the property. It's the perfect place to slow down, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. Located just minutes from Trout Pond Recreation Area and Lost River State Park, you'll have endless opportunities for hiking, fishing, kayaking, and exploring. When you're ready to venture out, enjoy the nearby Lost River Valley and the charming town of Wardensville, known for their locally loved restaurants, cafés, farmers markets, live music, and small-town hospitality. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a weekend retreat, or an income-producing investment, this property offers it all. The current owner has lovingly enjoyed the cabin as a personal mountain getaway while also operating it as a successful Airbnb and VRBO short-term rental when not in residence. Short-term rental financials are attached to the listing, and a link to the rental listing can be found in the Agent Remarks or by contacting the Listing Agent.
