Quick get away, romantic vacation, gather with friends or bring the kids - this vintage, hacienda style mountain house boasts spacious gathering areas, wonderfully appointed bedrooms, hot tub, private fenced yard, large deck, fire pit! A fully stocked kitchen, coffee lounge and dining room beckon you to relax. The third bedroom is a unique, flex space with its own on suite bathroom. Spend your days on the lake’s sandy beach then walk back to the Mtn Lake Club for dinner and drinks at sunset.
Four years ago a major life change was made with a move to a more rural area where we were so very excited to finish raising our three children as a happy blended family. My husband and me also committed to becoming farmers who not only would live off our land, but give back to our community in simple, but impactful ways. Greener Pastures Family Farm was a grand experience and the 5 stays on property that included a tiny house, bell tent, barn, cottage, and farm house hosted hundreds of guests with great success and warmed my heart beyond measure. Now on our own, my son and me happily manage our Lake House in West Virginia and still get to enjoy farming, but on our new City Farm not far from our Lake House. Besides taking care of our city farm and lake house home, we volunteer with local animal groups and are also very active in helping take care of the aging population in our mountain lake community. Hosting and farming has given back to us in deeply satisfying ways. We are happily focused on helping to build agritourism in rural areas by providing a wonderful place to stay. We welcome anyone seeking retreat from their daily norm. Whether with your family, significant other, or friends who are looking for solitude, romance, or unending choice in outdoor activities the mountainous beauty of West Virginia and surrounding historical locations are calling to you and ready to be enjoyed by you and your guests. You have total contactless check in and check out. I am a quick message away and send much of my free time paddle boarding on the lake or enjoying time with my son or friends lake side or at the Mountain Lake Club during the colder months.
The Mountain Lake Retreat is part of an original private and invitation only mountain retreat community. At one time the heart of the community was the 50 room log style lodge that was lost in a terrible fire decades ago. Since then a new building was constructed and recently renovated. Your stay is just a few minute walk from the Mountain Lake Club restaurant, bar, and sandy beach. Shannondale Lake is an 80 acre lake that rests in the amazing crevices of the West Virginia mountains. From kayak, canoe, paddle boat, and paddle board rentals there is something fun to do on the lake for everyone during your visit. The beach and swimming area are an enjoyable and refreshing place to spend your time. In Winter, the restaurant and bar are open and boost a pretty killer karaoke night each weekend as well as a multitude of music entertainment and special events throughout the year. This is a wonderful walking neighborhood - walk to the restaurant, bar, lake, or sand beach.
