About this property

History meets comfort at this original Canaan Valley home! Cooper Homestead is a true blend of all the “things” we humans enjoy and the history we love to hear about. One of the first families to settle in the high Allegheny Mountains, the Coopers farmed, timbered and raised 9 children 3200”above sea level. Built in 1882, Cooper Homestead is the only original Canaan Valley cabin still standing. And now it is available for you to rent! Renovated just enough to offer a full kitchen, laundry center and yes-inside plumbing, the homestead sits on 10 acres of super scenery and spectacular views. Enjoy some porch time. Prepare your favorite meal. Take in the views and witness true tranquility. Visit and imagine this pristine property filled with a large hard-working family. You can feel the history and find the modern as you experience this one of a kind lodging opportunity. The homestead is most comfortable for a couple or a couple with one or two children. Your well behaved dog is welcome with a small pet fee.

We Loved Cooper's Homestead

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The homestead was wonderful we loved it so very much! My husband and I didn't want to leave. We have been staying in Canaan Valley for 28 years several times a year. Cooper's Homestead was comfortable, the beds were excellent, the couch and chair could use an upgrade if you are planning on relaxing as my husband and I did. We are extremely busy and this was the first time in years that we stayed in Wednesday-Sunday! The tub was was an experience and of course made me appreciate mine so much the more. The stairs were NOT a problem for us and any well-rounded person would see immediately that you should use caution. We take for granted what we are given each day... and how blessed we are in 2024 but for those of us in 2024 that wished we lived back in the day this is your house! It is an excellent reminder of back then with the conveniences of today.

Ok except for the flies and mice

Amazing property, set well back from the road with a lot of privacy, very cozy and comfortable, wonderful views. The only downside was a housefly infestation that littered the floors and windowsills with dead flies every morning, and kept buzzing around the bed at night - along with the occasion scratching that I suppose was a mouse. The flies need to be dealt with - once they are, I would make this a 5-star review.

Peace and Tranquility

A lovely property. You're closest neighbors are horses. A lovely view from the porches. The air is as sweet as cold spring water and then balanced with floral from all of the wildflowers in the meadow. You're close to Davis and Thomas as well as Blackwater Falls State Park.
