Country roads, take me home to a place I belong … that is, a country getaway in wild, wonderful West Virginia! And what better spot for a great little rustic vacation than on a farm hidden away in the mountains less than an hour from the Mountain State capital.
Welcome to 5 Leaf Farm, a sustainable homestead located in Walton, West Virginia, just 40 minutes from Charleston.
And not only is this a family farm, but it's also open to guests via Airbnb! And with its rustic charm and plenteous activity options, it's the ultimate country getaway for one or two in West Virginia.
Hiking, fishing, learning from a pro about sustainable agriculture and wild foraging ... these are just a few of the things to do during a stay at 5 Leaf Farm.
And one of the options for staying here is in a rustic old cellar house turned charming glamping suite (another accommodation option, just in case you're interested in bringing some friends, is a treehouse with a zipline)!
The house itself features a queen bed in the single bedroom, a mini kitchen, a grill and a firepit, a deck, and a primitive bathroom (by primitive, think cushy attached outhouse, although there is a hot shower in all but the coldest weather).
The countryside surrounding this rustic roost features a 100-acre forest farm boasting pristine mountain woodlands, a fishing pond, a waterfall grotto, an observation tower, hiking trails, creeks, a hammock, and more.
With plenty to do right here on the farm, you may never want to leave this country paradise! But if you do venture out, note that the Poca River is nearby, and it offers even more opportunities for boating and fishing.
Here's another shot of the inside of the cellarhouse.
