Westwood-Very Private - Blackwater Canyon Trail- 1 mile from Thomas

Welcome to Westwood, a very private mountain getaway about a mile outside of Thomas, WV in the historic area of Coketon, WV. Perched a mile above the Blackwater Canyon, on two plus acres, it also borders the Western Pocahontas property, some 68,000 acres of Wild West Va. A very private location adds to the aesthetics all while being close to the Thomas town center. The 2 1/2 bedroom, 2 full bath house sleeps up to eight people and has a great deck overlooking the "Moors" as well as a front porch overlooking Snyder Run. Hiking, Biking, Cross country skiing are just a few of the activities available from one of the best locations in the area. The Blackwater Canyon Trail is at the bottom of the hill, go right to Douglas Falls and left 3/4 mile into Thomas. If you are a Mt. Top Hunting Club member, hunting ,fishing and ATV enthusiast have it all at your backdoor, with miles of trails right off the property.

Gorgeous location

Westwood property was located in a pristine corner close to the hiking trail which we caught to get to Douglas falls. The property was really clean, spacious, with a well stocked kitchen. It is so close to black water state falls park, Canaan valley resort . We are looking forward to coming back again.

West Virginia Mountains

We went to enjoy fall color in WV. Westwood is a beautiful home. Saw lots of deer and there were many spots around the house to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. I would love to return to this wonderful place!

Loved our stay

We took a somewhat spontaneous trip to this house. We've rented in the area many times, but we really loved how comfortable the house was and the location. We took our pups and really, really appreciate the house being dog friendly. We will be back soon. This is our new pick for our trips to this area.

An Idyllic Retreat

This house is charming, well spaced and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities. If you look for peace and quiet- yet close to all main state parks trails and attractions - this is it. The nearby little towns of Thomas and Davis were a pleasant surprise with so many good cafes, restaurants, farmers market and gift shops. We had a wonderful time and recharged.

Thomas Westwould

The property was outstanding. So beautiful. There was an apple tree which was a big hit with the Deer. A very cute town with some shopping and a few places for dinner. The house was old and needs some updates however very clean and well stocked.
