Hummingbird Heaven
Relacing on the front porch while the Hummingbirds battlef for dominance over the feeder was so entertaining. Covertly watching the groundhog family foraging for dinner nearly filled our days. Along with hiking and visiting local attractions. The house was perfect. Clean with every detail well considered for guests. Im sure we will visit again soon.

Best Getaway Spot in West Virginia
Staying at this VRBO in West Virginia was an absolute dream! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the incredible amenities and the attention to detail in every corner. The house was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need, making us feel right at home. The hospitality provided by the host was truly over the top - they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect in every way. The location was ideal, offering both peace and quiet along with convenient access to nearby attractions. We felt safe and secure throughout our entire stay, allowing us to truly relax and unwind. I can't recommend this VRBO enough - if you're looking for an unforgettable getaway with exceptional hospitality, look no further!

Enjoyable Getaway
Cabin is private with a great view! Owner was great to work with. Amaizing decor inside! Plenty of interesting items host had collected from his world travels. Also, some great creature comforts: amazing hot tub, quality memory foam King size beds, and entertainment area with an awesome surround sound system. Would highly recommend!

EXACLY WHAT WE NEEDED!
The views from Jim's property are AMAZING! The entire setting is an experience you must have at least once! At every glance inside Jim's house you will discover pieces he has collected from all over the world. It is truly a gift he is sharing with anyone who stays. The house was clean, well equipped, fully stocked and packing up and leaving was a breeze. Would definitely return!

What a great house!
We’ve visited the Davis/Thomas area for some spring break mountain biking. It was a great trip and our stay was a big reason. The house is extremely clean, comfortable, and very cozy, which we appreciated during the rainy/snowy weather. The kitchen was extremely well appointed. We got a lot of use out of the hot tub! Jim was very responsive with any question we had; his house is definitely on our short list for our next trip to Tucker County!

Always enjoyable time at Jim’s cabin. Hiking to Dolly Sods and all that the area has to offer once out and about to explore fills up any time spent here. Blackwater Falls State Park is gorgeous and Timberline Mntn is a great spot for hitting the slopes. Jim’s cabin is fully stocked with all your needs to stay in for meals and comfort.. Sharp knives, Calphalon pots/pans end microplane accessories, fridge with ice/water make kitchen top notch. BEST Integera home sound system on the East Coast and comfy beds, hot tub ALL make this cabin prime. Jim is great in communication and we appreciate him sharing his cabin. Again.

Wild and Wonderful Weekend
The property is well appointed with a great view of the Canaan valley. The beds were comfortable and the hot tub was great after a day of skiing at Timberline Mountain.
