About this chalet rental
Voyager Rest is ideally located to enjoy the incredible beauty of wild wonderful West Virginia! It is situated on a private 7+ acre lot, within Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge - within Old Timberline gated resort community. It offers complete privacy, yet is just minutes from countless outdoor pursuits.
The interior of Voyager Rest is exquisitely finished with antiques and collectables from around the globe. It is truly one of a kind. It includes, a large stone wood-burning fireplace, oak beams, antique hardwood and slate flooring, stone showers, and granite counter-tops fitted with hand-made copper sinks. Two kayaks are available to guests; one at each lake (Please see orientation).
Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge was the 500th National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) to be established in the United States. The refuge preserves a moist valley with unique wetlands and uplands at a relatively high elevation in the Allegheny Mountains.
Note guests have access to fishing at (2) lakes within the Old Timberline community

Voyager Rest is a spectacular way to enjoy Timberline WV.
The house is spacious (if you can work with 3 BRs), clean, well-designed, well-equipped (hot tub!), exceptionally well-decorated from the owner's trips to exotic places, and has nice views of the valley below.

This place is a gem. Amazing location, wonderful house with so much character. Everything was perfect. We didn’t wanna leave the house even though we had come in a trip to visit the sights around which there are so many that are so close. We decided to make this a yearly tradition at least or if possible even more frequent.

The experience starts with the breathtaking view as you navigate down the driveway to this beautiful, rustic, private cabin nestled in the woods! Upon entering, you are immediately taken on world travels tastefully displayed throughout this clean home! The attention to detail is evident from the beautiful wood floors, to the the fully stocked gourmet kitchen, amazing stone showers, meticulous linens, travel reading material, games and so much more! Watching nature from the deck with coffee in hand and soaking in the hot tub after a long day of hiking were pure bliss! It's apparently the home owner's heart and soul have been poured into this wonderful place and he prides himself in making sure his visitors have the perfect experience! It will leave you wanting more! Don't miss out!

What an incredible property. The appliances, amenities, and privacy are all top notch.
In addition, the lakes at Timberline, the proximity to nearby attractions, and the access to stores, restaurants, and shops is really good.

Everything about this house is wonderful. Location, amenities, and great communication from the owner. We’ve stayed here at least three times and look forward to our next visit.

We had a wonderful time in the Canaan Valley with Jim's house as our home base. The home, amenities, and objects from his travels were impressive. Would book again!
5.0
This rental home far exceeded any other place I have stayed with VRBO. The home is filled with antiques, varied cultural items from the owner's world travels, well appointed features throughout the home and a restful, peaceful atmosphere throughout. The location is perfect--lots of privacy, beautiful views of both the valley and the mountains and great seating to see wildlife, sunsets and nature. The owner was prompt to answer questions and stay in communication. Overall this home is a 5 star rating and will not disappoint!

We loved this place so much we came back for a second trip! Although this trip was a bit shorter, we enjoyed reconnecting with this home’s charm and historic treasures!! Jim is truly one of a kind and clearly cares about his guest’s experience within this amazing cabin.
5.0
This trip was amazing! We honestly could have just stayed at the cabin the whole time there was so much to see and enjoy. It felt like we traveled the world just being in the cabin with all the unique decor. The hot tub was perfect and super clean. The stone double shower was like nothing we have ever seen. The fire place was so relaxing and cozy and had plenty of wood to keep it going. Jim gave some amazing recommendations for black water falls and Seneca rock hiking. Our dogs had a blast hiking there and on the property. The beds and linens were immaculate. It was the best sleep I’ve had in a long time. All the appliances were top notch from the kitchen to the laundry. The views from the deck were spectacular. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Worth every penny!

My family and I had an amazing stay in Davis. The property was beautiful as was the home. It had everything we needed and then some for a weekend of hiking and relaxation. Jim is a terrific host and very communicative and welcoming. Looking forward to visiting again!

I rented Voyager Rest along with a group of family and friends, some of which have been traveling to the Canaan Valley for 20+ years. I myself have visited a good many times over the past decade. Voyager Rest is hands down one of the best cabins you can rent in all of the valley. The places itself is amazing and perfectly curated, and the views are amazing.
As if the cabin wasn’t already fantastic enough, the host, Jim, was genuinely the nicest and most attentive host I’ve come across. My group ran into some last-minute logistical issues the day before check-in, so I messaged Jim to ask about an early check-in. He called me within minutes to tell me that we could check in as early as we like, and also provided some info about the property and the amazing sound system in the cabin. Jim then proceeded to call me one or two more times to tell me about a few other things with the cabin, and also told us we could check out as late as we wished because no one was renting it the day we left. Start to finish, an all-around amazing experience. Already planning a return trip!

We had a great stay at Voyager Rest, the kids and adults were fascinated by the decor, it’s a cozy space and a great launch pad for Timberline skiing. Hot tub was a ton of fun after a day of skiing. Highly recommend!
5.0
Overall our stay was awesome. Tons of wildlife to see and the house in the woods was the perfect location for us. The hot tub at night was super fun. The house is filled with fun objects and history filled antiques. The only downfall was the check in process which was no fault to Vrbo or the host. It was simply the employees of the check-in gate did not want to help or seem to care that the guests before us wrote the wrong check out date on their paper and would not let us past. Jim and his son were awesome and quickly got it resolved and we enjoyed our weekend. Would definitely go back and stay again! Thanks Jim

We had a very short stay as this wonderful property. Everything in the kitchen was top notch with very high end appliances, microwave, even the toaster and coffee maker! The views are probably the best in the valley! Beautiful home.

We stayed at Voyager’s Rest for the weekend to ski at Timberline. The cabin is close to the ski resort, was clean and comfortable. We had a great time and would definitely recommend!

My family enjoyed a long weekend at Voyager Rest. Although the weather was mostly rain, we enjoyed hanging out at the house, watching movies, sitting in hot tub and taking long walks. The house had all the amenities we needed to cook meals and make ourselves comfortable. And you could look at the travel souvenirs for days and not see them all. A very enjoyable time!
5.0
We enjoyed our stay greatly at Jim’s place. Very warm and welcome home in a very convenient location located just passed Timberline. The views were beautiful! We enjoyed lots of snow in the hot tub, the accommodations were comfy and the house very clean. Lots of decor from around the world to check out! Thanks Jim for offering up your beautiful place!
5.0
The beautiful, comfortable home with the stunning views are memories we cherish. The property is secluded and quiet. The working fireplace and hot tub was immensely enjoyed by all family members. The state of the art appliances made cooking so enjoyable. The host Jim, was extraordinarily easy to contact and dealt with having the driveway plowed the same day we called. We hope to return and look forward to spending more time at this lovely mountain home.

We loved Voyager Rest. So many interesting items and thought-provoking artifacts from around the world and different time periods. We arrived in a significant snowfall, which only added to the experience and natural beauty of the property.

We had a great couple of days at Voyageur's Rest. The location was fabulous, with beautiful views of the valley and mountains and just minutes from the entrance to Timberline Mountain. The house was as described in the posting, with a great kitchen, comfortable living area, and an outdoor grill. The space was even bigger than we anticipated, with plenty of rooms and bathrooms. We spent a pleasant few hours in the hot tub enjoying the warmth and the view, and the myriad and varied decorations from all over the world made for a great game of "I spy".
5.0
For a quiet time away from everything, this is a good place. It would be helpful to know where the nearest pharmacy and/or grocery is - for more than convenience store choices. Davis seemed too far to backtrack, but I thought I'd remembered other options available during previous stays. Challenging road - 4W Drive only - during snowy periods... but that's adventure!

We had a great stay. Definitely loved the area. I had an issue with the door code and Jim was very responsive even though he was overseas.

Beautiful views and everything about the house was perfect. Location within Timberlake offered many amenities. Jim Hopkins, the property manager, was responsive and eager to provide information to enhance our stay. The large property provided privacy and a perfect environment for our dogs. Can’t say enough. We returned
to the area for several years, and this was the best.

Voyager Rest is a fantastic place to stay at. It has a rustic look that is breath taking. the inside is rustic looking and has so many unique cultural displays on the walls from so many countries and time periods you are just mesmerized by it.
The view from the balcony is astonishing, we saw deer, turkeys, and coyotes. The birds we saw and photograph was unreal and breath taking. Davis is a fantastic town to visit the shops and people are so friendly they make you feel like you have been apart of the community. We were greatly appreciative to the owner at Voyager Rest for his help and his wonderful hospitality highly recommend this VRBO to anyone and you will have awesome experience

When searching for a place to accommodate our family we were looking for location & something especially unique in charm. Firstly, James (our property manager) was great at communication. We felt welcomed before we even arrived. 2ndly, the scenery as we arrived was so lovely we took time to take that in before we even stepped inside. But with walking through the entrance we were immediately taken back and continued taking every step within one foot at a time. The images do not to this place justice! Wow . . . is an understatement. We immediately felt like we'd arrived into a world all in of it's own. Everything you might need (besides personal toiletries) is provided! So much for the senses to take in from every seat you might be sitting in! Cozy, comfy, calming, not to mention the collection of life this charming place has to offer. It's located perfectly to all site seeing you might want to do. Cooking, reading, movie viewing, gaming, dining, hiking, hot tub soaking, breathtaking scenery & wildlife viewing! Every nook & cranny is jam packed with insight & inspiration for the senses! We enjoyed visiting some of the galleries & eateries in Thomas & Davis & Canaan Valley. We spent time on Canaan Loop Rd, Blackwater Falls, Pendleton Point & Dolly Sods. Even took Big Tuna kayak for a paddle on the Sand Run Lake. Discovering this new home away from home has been added to our favorite experiences of 2023 and we intend to revisit as soon as we can! Thank you once again James ♥

We really enjoyed our time at Voyager Rest. The cabin was just as we expected. Beautifully decorated and had everything you would need for a restful stay in the mountains. The view was just gorgeous!!! Would definitely come back for a future stay. Jim was great as well. Checking in to make sure we had everything we needed and got back to us quickly if we had any questions. Saw lots of deer and even turkeys. Was waiting to see a bear, but, that didn’t happen, lol.
Maybe next time!!!

My wife and I can’t say enough about this beautiful place! We had an absolutely perfect weekend there celebrating her birthday and relaxing in nature’s beauty! We loved all the decorations, amazing kitchen, copper sinks, natural stone showers, back patio and deck overlooking the Allegheny mountains and Canaan Valley. So many things to do, including Blackwater Falls and Dolly Sods. Next time we visit we’ll use the kayaks and hot tub. We enjoyed using the propane grill and fire pit. A thunderstorm on our last night was so amazing and beautiful with the thunder echoing between the mountains and across the valley and lightning lighting up sections of the sky like a quilt pattern, it left us speechless. Any time we plan another trip in this area, we would love to stay here again! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Our group of 4 take a hiking trip every year and we chose Davis, WV! We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! The host was so helpful, answered our questions and gave us information about places to visit and hike. I wish we could have had more time in the area, but a good reason to come for another visit!

We've been staying at this property every July-August for the last 5 years. Great access to the Dolly Sods Wilderness and great lot. The owner is readily available too.

Jim’s home was wonderfully peaceful, well maintained and had close access to hiking trails. We used his kayak on the lake and he gave us some “must see” places we visited.
Check in and checkout directions were easy and Jim made himself available via text if we needed to get ahold of him.
The lookout down the hill of his property had a milkweed meadow in full bloom and the floral scent of the milkweed, the dancing monarchs and the hummingbirds visiting the milkweed was a rare treat.

Amazing home and location...we all loved our stay. My dog too! Drinking coffee and wine on the upper deck, witnessing beautiful views and practicing yoga and meditation on the patio...heaven.

We had a wonderful 3-night stay! The home is uniquely decorated, which was fun and interesting. We all enjoyed the stone showers and gorgeous views and sunsets off the back porch. The kitchen had everything we could want. This home is convenient to many surrounding spots we wanted to visit: Dolly Sods, Seneca Rocks, Canaan Valley Wildlife Refuge, and Blackwater Falls State Park. It is convenient to restaurants with some options within 10 minutes and more in Davis about 20 minutes away. We would absolutely stay here again. The owner was communicative and easy to work with and we appreciate him opening his home to share!

We had such a great family weekend away! The unique decor was definitely a plus. I didn’t hear one “I’m bored” from my teens the whole time. The house was excellent with all of the amenities we needed. Very clean and well cared for. A beautiful view and perfect location. We truly enjoyed our stay at Voyager’s Rest!
