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.

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 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.

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.
Second time staying at this awesome rental. Location is perfect walking distance to many resturants, shopping and exploring downtown Fayetteville. Loved the private fenced in back yard!
We stayed at the Wiseman Cottage for the 50km New River Gorge Trail festival race, and it was the perfect place! Super close to the start/finish in Fayetteville Park and close to plenty of restaurants as well. Everything was very clean and well kept!
Our family had a wonderful stay in this lovely, comfortable home. Lots of character with all the important things -- like the bathrooms and the kitchen --updated and fresh.
The backyard was a great, and safe, space for our pup to run and play.
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.
This house was very clean and well appointed. The owner was very accommodating and gave us everything we needed regarding information about the area. The kitchen and supplies were all well stocked. The house was easy to find and is close to everything in downtown Fayetteville. It was an easy check in and check out process. We were very happy with our stay.
The house was very comfortable, beatuiful, spacious and roomie. We were able to check in a little earlier than expected without any issues. Our fary children enjoyed the fenced in yard. Our kids enjoyed walking into down town, which is lovely and quaint. The house was close to everywhere we wanted to visit, not to mention blocks away from Biscuit World. This was my first trip to West Virginia and am very glad I found this home to stay in. I highly recommend this property. The entire family enjoyed the stay. House was fully ready for our family, including our cookout. The favorite part was the AMAZING Poopy seed bread that welcomed us. AMAZING!!!
Great property: super clean and perfect location! This house doesn't look too fancy from the outside but Don't be fooled! It's lovely inside and the back yard...it's amazing! It's beautiful, relaxing, and great for an evening cook out. Host pays attention to details, for example, provides dog bowls for dog food & water. There are towels to wipe a wet dog off, etc. Yard is fully enclosed & HUGE. There's a dog park right across the street and, again, it doesn't look like much but you'll meet the friendliest people! Great little town for seeing the National Park, rafting, and enjoying some good food. Highly recommend. Thanks Bill for sharing your property with us! We had a great time!
We met our two sons and family for a Christmas gathering. The house was wonderful…very clean, spacious and great fenced in backyard. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook a Christmas feast. More than what we expected and will have great memories for our 2021 Christmas get together. Perfect location and a short walk to a wonderful park for our one year old grandson. Bill gave us great information and was very responsive.
Overall Immaculate (passed inspection by my mother in law!), everything we needed in kitchen, even dog bowls! Thick, soft towels in bathrooms. Great location, large fenced in yard, dog park and playground across street, a block to antique store (took my mother in law!).
We had a wonderful gathering with our friends. The house was exactly as marketed online. It's very clean and the owners were very quick to respond to my emails.
