About this house rental
Tucked into the side of a mountain in beautiful Canaan Valley, our little "Ski Hytte" is a true quiet getaway. It is an "unplugged" getaway that focuses on food, family and quality time. The screen distractions are minimal and the cabin games are plentiful.
4WD / AWD vehicles are a must to access the property - especially in the winter months.
On the main floor you will find:
A well-outfitted kitchen with a kitchen island that seats 2. The kitchen has everything from an ice-cream maker to a fondue set as well as all the basics. The dining area has a table that seats as many as 8 and also doubles as a ping-pong table!
2 steps down into the living room you'll find a large fireplace with a comfy couch and a foosball table as well as books, puzzles, board and card games.
Down the hall of the main floor you will find the master bedroom with queen size bed and an ensuite bathroom with shower. Across the hall is the 2nd bedroom with a full size bed and access to the hall bathroom with a tub and shower. Each of the main floor bedrooms have a door to a semi-private deck. Each one with an uninterrupted view of a gorgeous night sky.
On the Basement level you will find:
Down a spiral staircase, is the 3rd bedroom which also doubles as a game room. There is a twin bunkbed, a small futon and a few beanbag chairs for lounging. The one and only TV plays a small selection of DVD's and Wii games, so not completely unplugged! There is a small basket of kids toys and figurines as well as a dartboard.
The 3rd bathroom has a walk-in shower and the washer and dryer is located here as well.
We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do. It is an excellent "base camp" for all of your outdoor adventures in this beautiful corner of West Virginia.

The recommendation that you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle should be taken seriously. In the winter, I don't see how you could navigate a vehicle there without 4-wheel drive - something that the listing makes clear in it's description. The home is on a steep incline, unpaved, loose gravel road with limited space to navigate your vehicle, turn around, park, etc. During our stay in late June 2026 construction crews were tearing up the road and laying fiber optic cable which made everything worse and construction crews were staying in neighboring home(s) with limited regard to those looking for peace and quiet. The home itself is well furnished and adequate for short term stays but it is an older home and needs some work in several areas to close gaps around doors, screens, etc. It's rural so sometimes this can be challenging for city dwellers to adjust to (i.e. well water, critters, etc.) - all the things that also make escaping the city attractive. There's a lot to do in the area if you enjoy nature, hiking, the outdoors, etc. Host was responsive and answered all our questions. There's no air-conditioning but there's a very effective attic fan that helps to keep the home cool. It's loud but pulls the air through the home rather well. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking meals and we used the washer/dryer without any trouble.

Good communication with the host answering questions in a timely manner. Property was as described and well equipped. Great property for summer stays. As shown in the lead in picture, there is a number steps from the parking area to the house.

Snow and ice removal were not safe conditions to traverse but host communicated about the conditions via their cleaning service. Host did not offer any solutions nor offer any assistance with salt for safety - asked me to supply salt, nor was snow removal done on steps or front walk area. Even the steps and main area leading to the front door were still covered with ice and snow which we shoveled and cleared. Lights in the main room above the kitchen were out and the lighting was very dim. Many cobwebs in the windows and debris/dust/objects were visible in living room around foosball table and game rack as well as under the couches.
