CANNON HOUSE
CANNON HOUSE RETREAT

WHERE HISTORY LIVES

Interior of Cannon House Retreat

A historic home in Fayetteville, West Virginia — three bedrooms, a back deck, and the unhurried pace of West Virginia's oldest river canyon.

THE PROPERTY

TENDED, NOT MANAGED

What we have added is chosen to belong: linens that feel settled, a kitchen stocked for people who actually cook, and the quiet confidence of a house that has welcomed generations.

The house sits within the New River Gorge National Park boundary — ten minutes from the Canyon Rim Visitor Center, with hiking trailheads accessible directly from the property. It is a place to arrive slowly and leave reluctantly.

The Cozy Porch

A small, quaint back deck with a Blackstone grill and an overhang for when the weather rolls in. The place where evenings stretch out.

The Traveler's Reading Nook

The Traveler's Reading Nook

A quiet corner stocked with Civil War histories, period maps, and books on the region. Settle in and let the collection pull you deeper.

The Bathroom

The Bathroom

A walk-in tin shower and an antique sewing machine turned into a sink. The kind of detail that makes you stop and look twice.

BOOK YOUR STAY

ARRIVE SLOWLY
