Paradise Found

Description of the Arden vacation home rental

For a restorative vacation for both your body and your soul, consider a week in a beautiful riverfront home on the banks of the unforgettable Tygart River, in the heart of West Virginia.

If outdoor activities are your forte, you will truly love this beautiful and unspoiled area. Hiking and biking trails abound, and the Tygart River, at your very door, offers tubing, kayaking and swimming in its clean and fast flowing waters.

You can picnic at the home's gazebo, and beside your very own waterfall, located at the rear of the property.
After a day of touring,biking or hiking you can just relax in the hot tub, and then enjoy your evening meal on the screened porch overlooking the river.

Later, cool evening breezes will waft through the generous, river-facing windows of the master bedroom, while the whisper of the Tygart's rapids, just 200 feet from your bed, sooth you to sleep.

Note: There is no TV reception here, although there is a VCR and selected movies to watch if you choose. Also, while you can received cell phone service if you are with US Cellular, it is hit and miss for other services such as Verizon, Sprint, etc.

This unparalleled home is located in the Village of Arden, in central West Virginia, just a few miles from the first ridge of the Appalachian Mountain chain. This bit of paradise is just 8 miles from the town of Philippi, which was the scene of the first land battle of the Civil War, and history is everywhere you look. The Blue and Gray museum in Philippi holds many interesting battle artifacts and several of the War's battlefields are within an easy day trip.

The setting was stunning. The house was spacious and invited in the scenery with many windows. A nice family get-away.
