Enjoy this private mountain retreat with stunning views on 230 acres

The Lodge at Valley View is a wonderful mountain retreat located at the base of the Allegheny front in Grant County WV, approximately 2.75 hours (150 mi) due west of downtown Washington DC. and only 10 minutes off of US 48 (corridor H)

You will have exclusive use of a modern and very private 3 bedroom, 2 bath home situated on 230 forested acres with stunning views. We are located just minutes away from Dolly Sods, Seneca Rocks, Spruce Knob, Blackwater Falls State Park and close to Davis WV, Thomas WV, Timberline and Canaan Valley ski areas.

Sleeping arrangements includes a master suite with king bed, large private bath and awesome views with entry onto back deck. There are two additional bedrooms, each with a queen bed and a second full bath. All bedrooms and baths were fully renovated in July 2022.

Family and friends can gather in the wonderful living area that opens onto a back deck overlooking a gorgeous meadow with expansive views. Your group can share a meal in the dining room with a table that seats 8 or on the back deck.

The kitchen is fully equipped for just about anything you might want to prepare a wonderful meal including basic condiments and spices.

Enjoy a cup of coffee, evening beverage or game in the cozy rotunda while gazing at the abundant wildlife and stunning views of the Allegheny or perhaps a cozy fire in the fireplace on a cold winter's morning.

Enjoy several miles of hiking/biking trails here on the property or the numerous miles of hiking trails just moments away in the Dolly Sods Wilderness. World class rock climbing is right around the corner at Seneca Rocks. Skiing at Canaan or Timberline is about 45 minutes away and we are located in the heart of some of the best whitewater kayaking and canoeing in the entire United States. There is good trout fishing nearby as well.

Great return trip

This was our second trip to the Lodge at Valley View. We enjoyed our stay again and were so impressed with the recent renovations! Both bathrooms have been completely redone and are beautiful. We enjoyed the mountain views and serene environment. The owner was easy to communicate with as well. Our family had a wonderful trip and plan to come back again!

Snow trip

My family and I had a great time in the snow. The house and property was amazing. We were able to sled in the yard around the house and in the pastures. We saw several deer in the fields each day. It had a nice fireplace to warm up.

Great Country Retreat

What a wonderful place to stay! Newly renovated farm house nestled in the mountain valleys of WV. The house was immaculate, the kitchen better stocked than most and perfect for a gourmet chef. Extremely peaceful and relaxing! My family and I would definitely recommend this for a family looking to get away from it all or to enjoy nearby skiing, sledding, tubing, etc or wilderness hikes and the great outdoors in general. Also, the Owner was very helpful and easy to communicate with should you need to reach them or wonder what was in the area.

Our weeklong stay at the lodge at valley view was wonderful - we did not want to leave! The only sounds we could hear were from nature, the views were stunning, and the house itself was more than accommodating for my family. The location of the property was central to several places we wanted to visit within a one hour drive (Swallow Falls in MD was slightly farther). We went to Blackwater Falls and Canaan Valley state parks as well as Seneca Rocks and Spruce Knob. We didn’t have appropriate transportation to visit the Dolly Sods, but the property is minutes from the entrance to that area. The property itself is enormous and includes a small heard of cattle as well as deer, rabbits, and several species of birds. Inside the house is clean and spacious with modern fixtures throughout. We felt welcome and at home for the entire time we were there. We will definitely return if we’re in the area again.

Family getaway

My wife and our family, including our children (2mo and 22mo) had the perfect getaway weekend, just what we were looking for to escape the hustle and bustle of the workweek. The property was stunningly beautiful, perfect for the occasional stroll through the fields to enjoy the mountainous backdrop. Then when the late winter weather picks up, nothing is better than settling in inside sitting in front of the fireplace!

Great Weekend Getaway Property

House is very spacious, clean and the kitchen is as stocked as my kitchen at home. Would love to experience this property when the weather isn’t 10 degrees and snow covered. It’s rural so don’t expect to dine out or expect a convenience store anywhere relatively close.

Complete privacy with a view!

My husband, our 5 year old son, and my in-laws planned our annual trip to the Smoke Hole area of West Virginia. We knew we wanted to have a private, relaxing place to stay and wow did this place deliver! It is a half mile back a private drive overlooking a beautiful valley. A large yard for our son to ride his bike and a view off the back deck that was the perfect way to start and end each day. The house was one of the cleanest I've visited through VRBO and the kitchen was the best stocked! The location is also perfect. The Dolly Sods are right down the road and the stretch of the Potomac we rafted was only a 20 min drive away. A 45 minute drive got us to the Purple Fiddle to get dinner and see a band. We definitely plan on coming back to this wonderful home!

Great place to relax and be in total contact with nature.

It was exactly what we were looking for. A house in a farm surrounded by mountains. The house was great and comfortable, with all the amenities necessary to spend a nice and relaxing time in the mountains of West Virginia. It was perfect. Highly recommended.

Perfect Place to Unwind

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time. Enjoyed being away from other properties. The seclusion was great! Watched the sun rise over the mountains with a nice cup of coffee on the big deck. The kitchen was the best stocked of any of the places we have stayed at over the years. Sitting out on the deck at night, WOW. The stars were amazing. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend this property to anyone looking to get away for a while. Close to Dolly Sods for hiking, and other sites are 20 to 50 minutes drive away.

Wonderful views

What a wonderful place. My daughter loved meeting the cows. We even had to say good night to them. The kitchen is beautiful and had all the items you would ever need. Master bed was comfortable but according to the rest of the family the other two beds were not that comfortable. The views again was amazing we enjoyed walking around the property. We did not have cell services at all (which is great for us!) there was a tv with dish that helped with the little one at night, there is WiFi but we tried to stay off it the best we could. It was about an hour from everything but totally worth it.

Great week

My 2 teenagers and I spent a week for Spring break at this property. We had an amazing time. The house was spotless when we arrived. It is located in a secluded area, is very spacious with many windows offering an amazing view of the surroundings. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for cooking as well as baking. The barbecue and the sitting area on the deck are definitively a must when the weather is nice. This house is located in a beautiful area with top views. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. It is close to many trails for those who like to hike. A great place to stay for families!
