Chip and Lorie were wonderful hosts and so friendly. Check in was awesome, felt like coming home. Loved the setup of the apartment, had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. The area was beautiful, would have liked to stay longer.
the location was perfect, however we were not alone on property the owners are a stones throw away. they have elderly dogs that roam the property which caused a slight issue with us. nice parks close to hike and walk loved the area
The hosts are really awesome. The location is amazing, with really cool trails on property and state parks and horseback riding really close. The house was very comfortable, had everything we needed.
We stayed over a long weekend and very much enjoyed the place and our stay. The property is spacious, pleasant, fully equipped and super clean. Location is excellent for outdoor activities. Nice and responsive hosts. We hope to stay at this place again!
This was a beautiful cabin and the location was perfect. Easy communication with owners and spoke with them in person a couple times. Would highly recommend for anyone going to the area of Davis WV. Cabin was furnished with everything you need and was spotless! Our Dogs also loved the large yard and secluded area and many dog friendly hiking trails nearby.
Lovely secluded property close to Dolly Sods, US Wildlife areas, Monongahela National Forest, Seneca Rocks and many other trails. The owners, Chip and Laurie were perfect hosts. The GarageMahal had all the things needed for a home away from home. If you need to get away to refuel this is an awesome quiet location. Highly recommended.
We enjoyed how well appointed the kitchen is and how many âlittle touchesâ like soaps, cleaning supplies, toilet paper etc. were supplied. Very quiet quality time for our family including our terrier.
Chip Chase and Laurie Little own and operate the White Grass Touring Center and Cafe since the 1970's. Chip is an all around naturalist while Laurie is one of the best read authors of two popular cookbooks.
Just over a mile to the western edge of Dolly Sods and Canaan State Park as well as adjacent to the Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge. A short scenic jaunt to the bubbling sand spring Refuge boardwalk. Under 5 minute drive to the Nat'l Wildlife Refuge Visitors Center and a 9.5 mile, 20 minute trek to Laneville and the bottom of Red Creek Trail in Dolly Sods. The house is full of maps, guide books, and chapters covering the fascinating local natural history. We are in the heart of Appalachian diversity, home to many workshops, group hikes, outdoor activities, and a birthplace of many rivers. Summers are cool, often filled with thunderstorms, and breezy clouds. Four distinct seasons and a winter often accompanied with fresh snowfall. Chip and Laurie hold a deep understanding of the area and are willing to share it.
In winter to be trailside on one of the nation's favorite cross country ski areas and in summer within a short walk or drive to some of the finest white water streams, pristine swimming holes, wild caves, and the funky tourist towns of Davis and Thomas.
