The Wiseman Cottage is a 2 story, 4 bedroom house built in 1930 and completely renovated in the last 4 years. It is the 4th vacation rental in Fayetteville owned and managed by Bill and Sally Wells under the Mountain Vacation Properties Banner. We pride ourselves in providing the best combination of location, luxury accommodations and price for our guests and you can see our guest reviews on our other properties #452740, #563229 and #707475 The house was the home of Doc Wiseman who was a prominent resident of Fayetteville and owner of a pharmacy and soda fountain that was located across the street from the courthouse. Wiseman Avenue, where the house is located was named after Doc Wiseman's father. The house has many beautiful architectural features like hardwood floors, built in cabinets and beveled glass doors. The recent renovations included complete remodeling of the kitchen and bathrooms. The house can accommodate up to 11 people. Bedroom #1 is located on the ground floor and contains a full size bed and a twin bed. The remaining bedrooms are located on the second floor. Bedroom #2 has a full size bed. Bedroom #3 has two twin beds and Bedroom #4 has a queen size bed and a master bath. The other full bathroom is also located on the second floor. There is a half bath on the first floor. The back yard is fenced in and the house is pet friendly. Parking is available in the driveway for up to 6 vehicles. No parking is allowed on the street. The house directly behind the Wiseman Cottage is one of our other vacation rentals (The McGrath House #707475). If you have a larger group, you can rent both houses. The McGrath House is a 4 bedroom house and sleeps up to 12. The Wiseman Cottage is 1.5 blocks from the center of downtown Fayetteville and is close to parks, shopping, restaurants and hiking/biking trails. The old Fayetteville Elementary School is immediately across the street and it has a large fenced in front yard that is now been converted to the town's dog park. The school also has a football field. Most of Fayetteville's unique shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance (1 to 3 blocks). The new Fayetteville Recreation Trail passes directly in front of the house and will take you to the 200 acre Gaines Property in one direction or to the New River Gorge Town Park Trailhead in the other direction. The Gaines Property is owned by our sister company, Cascade Properties, and guests at the Wiseman Cottage are free to hike/bike on the property. The Town Park Trailhead gives you access to miles of trails within and outside of the park. The New River Gorge Bridge and Bridge Walk attraction are only 1.5 miles away and the outdoor adventure outfitters are all within 4 to 7 miles. The Wiseman Cottage and the other houses within the Mountain Vacation Properties family offer the best combination of luxury accommodations, excellent location and affordability in the New River Gorge Region.

    Beautiful home. Very clean and well equipped with nearly everything you could possibly need. Great location. Can walk to all of the locals spots in Fayetteville. Fenced in yard was very secure and our dog loved being able to roam. We would definitely love to stay again on our next visit.

    This was a great place to stay for my family's week-long summer vacation exploring the New River Gorge. Our group (7 adults and one dog) fit in the house comfortably. We loved the backyard and the easy walk into downtown Fayetteville. We'd definitely stay here again!

    The house was sparkling clean and just as described. The backyard was huge, fenced and great for kids and adults. We loved the evenings on the patio. The house was located on a quiet street, but only a couple blocks to a great bakeries, coffee shops and restaurants. The area was filled with hikes and adventures. Fun for All!

    The house is easy to find, pretty inside and out. Very comfortable to hang out in, great kitchen for cooking. Amazing back yard for our pup. Only a couple block walk to shops and restaurants and a short drive to the Canyon Rim Visitor Center. The owner was very responsive. Overall an excellent experience and stay.

    This house was excellent for what we needed it for! We got married at The Gaines Estate and the close proximity was ideal for us! The house was cute and quaint, perfect for myself, my mother and my five bridesmaids!

    We enjoyed our stay in Fayetteville. The home was spacious for our group of 7 including a large fenced in yard which our dog loved. We were walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in the downtown area and a short drive to New River Gorge National Park. William was a friendly and helpful host. I would recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.

    We have been coming to Fayetteville off and on since 2007 for our sisters weekends. We absolutely fell in love with the Wiseman House and plan to come back here every year. There are 6 of us, and it’s been hard to find something in our price range where we can all have a bed!! And it’s really centrally located too! Can’t wait to return next year.
