Your Home Away From Home!

This welcoming small 2 story house is circa 1853 and is where the coal miners lived. We have created a very comfortable, private, cozy and safe environment for our guests. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm for a great vacation. Relax on the deck with a drink and your loved ones and look out over town through the beautiful scenery. Last summer we added a beautiful new patio with a gas Fire Pit on the side of the house! Also overlooking it downtown, take your drinks outside and enjoy.

Due to COVID I am no longer serving a continental breakfast!

The Van Pelt House is right in the heart of town but secluded and private. Steps away from shops, biking, hiking, rafting, in restaurants and entertainment. This is the perfect place for a romantic weekend or a family vacation.


Walk into the house and you are in the living room with a Flat-screen Smart TV, Electric Fireplace, WiFi, Air-conditioner and a leather Queen Sleeper Sofa with a plush mattress. Continue on and you have a Fully Functional Kitchen that we are upgrading. Attached Deck right out the kitchen door.

We have added a lovely patio on the side of the house with a fire pit. A wonderful space to sit with a glass of wine and take in the view!

If you choose to go out to eat, restaurants are all walking distance from the house. No need to drive anywhere. Upstairs is the Master Bedroom with very comfortable Queen Mattress ,Ceiling fan and Air-conditioning, a Sitting Room with a new Futon and a Full Bath with Claw Foot Tub.

The Van Pelt House is available for the weekend, week, month or for extended stays.
