Welcome to the Cooper Homestead, a rare and remarkable opportunity to stay in the only original home still standing in Canaan Valley, dating back to 1882. This storied log cabin is more than just a place to stay—it’s a living piece of West Virginia history.
Built by one of the first pioneering families to settle in the high Allegheny Mountains, the Coopers farmed, timbered, and raised nine children at 3,200 feet above sea level. Today, this historic landmark invites guests to experience the same mountain air, peaceful setting, and rustic charm—now enhanced with a few key modern comforts.
Inside, you’ll find thoughtful renovations including a full kitchen, laundry center, and indoor plumbing—all while preserving the character of the original cabin. Outside, the homestead sits on 10 scenic acres, with wide-open views, open skies, and front porch serenity that has stood the test of time.
Unplug and unwind as you imagine the hardworking Cooper family living off the land in this very space. It`s the perfect escape for a couple or small family, offering a unique blend of heritage and hospitality you won’t find anywhere else in the valley.
🐾 Your well-behaved dog is welcome (pet fee applies).
📍 An unforgettable stay in an irreplaceable place.
