Summerlee House | 50 mile views into NR Gorge, recently renovated, 6000 sq ft

7 Bedroom House in Summerlee, Oak Hill

This is the destination for Family Reunions in Southern WV! The Amherst Retreat was designed by architect E.T. Bogges in the mid 1960's as a residence for Mr and Mrs. J. S. Lewis. The home was built on the cliffs overlooking the New River Gorge at Arbuckle Creek. The home is currently wrapping up a complete renovation from top to bottom. We have installed new roof, HVAC, electrical, drywall, floors, lighting, appliances, furniture, and thousands of hours of elbow grease to restore the home to its original glory. The mansion was built using nothing but the finest materials from around the globe. The siding is redwood and stone. The doors are mahogany. The cabins are wormy chestnut. The house has marble fireplaces, countertops and showers. Expensive doorknobs and bathroom brass fixtures are throughout the house.
We are accepting reservations for the summer of 2019 starting in May and will be updating the photos weekly as furnishing arrive and the finishing projects and touches are complete.
The home is perfect for large family gatherings, weddings, corporate retreats, or a multi family vacation getaway.
The kitchen is over 1,000 square feet and is lined with the original Wormy Chestnut cabinets, large food prep island, handmade French fixtures, Italian marble counter tops, and updated with all new Samsung appliances and a a custom concrete deep sink. There is a table that seats eight opposite the cooking area along the glass wall with one of many beautiful views of the gorge.There is also a dining room with a table and chairs that accommodate ten. There is a second chefs kitchen and pantry with an extra set of stainless steel appliances for catering or large groups. The kitchen area alone is an amazing place to congregate and visit with friends and family.
The Main Dinning and Living Rooms are a combined 1,300 square feet with multiple exits to the front patio garden or the 1,400 square foot back deck. These grand rooms have been renovated with new hardwood floors and furniture that will seat a small army. We were able to refinish the elaborate trim, the piano key crown molding, the Italian Marble Mantle , and an original silk oriental mural.
The upper level is linked my brightly lit tile hallways guiding guests to four bedrooms. Three bed rooms share one and one half baths and will accommodate many different sleeping arrangements with each room having their own pull out couch. The Master bedroom is fit for a king or a mid size family. The ensuite bath has a cedar sauna, walk in closet, his and hers marble vanities, and a sunken marble tub that is large enough for an entire family as well. All the fixtures and faucets in the upper level baths and outfitted with mid century Phylrich brass details that have been refinished by a local jeweler.
The lower level is accessed by a spiral stairway of the kitchen and has multiple entry points from the south side of the property. There are two bedrooms with a private bath and a kids bunk room with plenty of freestyle bedding arrangements.

Summary: My family and I travel to the mountains every year for spring break. And I can honestly say this location had the best view of any we have seen! The house is huge. It’s a combination of old country home (used to belong to a coal barron) with a splash of modern. Hot tub fits 5 comfortably and also comes with a view. Would recommend for anyone looking to stay close to hiking trails and Mountain views.

Summary: Enjoyed this beautiful home for the weekend. Place was very clean and accurate. One downside I would say is the shower heads are not that great. Not a huge issue but overall the house was wonderful.

Summary: The listing shows large, clean bedrooms and bathrooms. When our family arrived at the property it had not been cleaned from the previous group staying. We were staying at this house because there was a death in the family and wanted to be together and not at a hotel. Our group organized and everyone stepped up buying cleaning supplies, changing beds and washing dishes. We contacted the owner and they took hours to reply. We did end up getting one of the three nights stay refunded but it did not help with the emotional stress we had already on us. There were a number of things broken (including the spiral stairs) which could be a huge safety factor. The views were great, there were backup bedding supplies and large living room spaces for family to be together.

Summary: Our family could not have been more pleased with the house and accommodations! We loved the open space and beautiful view! Paul, the owner was a gracious host and met all our needs. We would highly recommend this rental for family vacations. Definitely a little bit of heaven in West Va.

Summary: The location was excellent because we went to Ace Adventure several Times and it is only 15 minutes away. The house was big enough for our family of 13 to have their own bedrooms and a nice big kitchen. The grill nearest the kitchen door had to be lit with a lighter as the igniter didn’t work, and the front burners flamed big but the back burners didn’t work at all. There are no towel bars to hang hand towels in the bathrooms. Very few towel bars for bath towels. It really needs an exterminator for wasps, wolf spiders, ants, and mice. Found all of those animals there. Bathroom shower drains were extremely slow. Some door latches only closed when locked. Lots of maintenance issues, but overall it was comfortable.

Summary: I was under the impression that the place was ok for my MS friend.IT WAS NOT! He was in a wheelchair and had a terrible time getting around the house. The tubs were all sunk and had no safety features to get in and out of them. Very unsuitable for a group 65 to 75 years old! We will not be back.

Summary: Gorgeous house, spacious, and luxurious. The kitchen is fabulous with plenty of space, more pots and pans than you can use, and even bakeware. Beds are comfortable, and bedrooms are spacious. The water in the showers is hard to adjust and comes out to hard, and the drains are slow, but it all works, and the house is so cool and unusual, we didn't mind too much. The views from the hot tub are fabulous, and the hot tub was clean and hot. It's a great space for a large group--even of unrelated adults because there are enough hang-out areas and privacy, as well as central gathering rooms. The host is very responsive. Definitely recommend!
