Cottage in Buckhannon

Adorable Cottage on the Buckhannon River

In the heart of West Virginia lies a beautiful cottage on the banks of the Buckhannon River. Far enough out to get away from it all but with all of the comforts of home. Unplug & reconnect, there is no landline, spotty cell phone service, no cable TV and no internet, but there is a gas fireplace indoors and a fire pit outside. The cottage offers a spacious “old timey” front porch within a few step of the river or just sit a spell with a good book. You will love this family friendly retreat.

7 Acres Inn *no cleaning fee*

Ahhhh.........quiet, get away from the hussle and bussle of life. The sound of a mountain creek taking your stress away. Getting back to nature, the gentle sway of a breeze, a starry night, rain pitter patter on a tin roof or the sun shining bright and warm. A lovely get away, barely minutes from George Washington National Forest, and yet only 20 minutes to Harrisonburg and JMU.
