Outdoor Access & Adventures:

Roam freely across the private property with direct access to approximately 2,000 feet of frontage on a beautiful trout stream (a scenic fork of the Buckhannon River)—your own private spot for relaxation, wildlife watching (deer, birds, and more visit regularly), or quiet reflection.
If properly licensed, fish right from the property—target native brook trout and stocked rainbow trout, and more (always check current WV DNR regulations for licenses, seasons, and limits).
Bring your ATV or UTV—use the driveway and river trail safely and responsibly to connect to nearby roads and trails for mountain exploration.
Occasionally share the space with friendly resident animals: horses, a cat, a dog, and guineas—adding authentic rural charm.
