    Private and Serene

    May 29, 2013

    Nature provides the entertainment here, if you are looking to get away from it all this is THE place. We rented the cabin over the weekend for a romantic getaway and it was perfect. I would challenge anyone to find just one speck of dust anywhere in the house or the cabin. Joanna is an immaculate housekeeper and a great cook, I would recommend to get dinner at least one night, you will not be disappointed. Little special touches were appreciated like fresh flowers in the cabin and on the breakfast/dinner table as well as snacks and wine left for us to enjoy. We booked the cabin for the privacy and to spend much needed alone time together, but found ourselves lingering after meals, for the engaging conversation with both Art and Joanna which we enjoyed very much; it was our first visit but it felt more like staying at a friends house instead of a place of business. We had a wonderful time and have already booked our next visit this time with dinner both nights. Dagmar and Kenneth Harrison Morgantown

    Wonderful and Relaxing Weekend

    November 01, 2012

    We came across this wonderful place on Bedandbreakfast.com while looking for a quiet place to spend a weekend. Our expectations were exceeded! Joanna and Arthur are wonderful hosts. They are very friendly and ensured that we were comfortable and had what we needed. We stayed in the cabin, which is rustically decorated, cozy and comfortable. Most importantly, there was NO TV and NO cell phone service (there are TVs in the two guest rooms in the house). That added to our enjoyment as we spent a few hours sitting on the porch, drinking wine and having good conversation. The claw foot tub was a huge hit with Lynette as she had not used one of those since she was a child. The two guest rooms located in the house are beautifully decorated in country themes, have private baths, and a common sitting area. Now to my favorite part of the weekend - the breakfasts. Everything was absolutely delicious. Joanna not only takes great pride in the quality of the food, but the presentation as well. The table was beautiful and there was quiet music playing in the background. If you leave hungry it is your own fault. Arthur also takes great pride in the outside appearance of the house and grounds which are very neat and clean. There is a pond near the house and the place is surrounded by woods. It is far enough away from neighbors, so there is no noise, but the sounds of nature. Mannington is a small town, but we found things to do. We visited Pack Rats and Malones, two second hand stores in the town as we enjoy treasure hunting. There are also a couple of small diners, but we didn't get to try them this trip because we were so full from breakfast. There is a McDonalds, Subway, Rite Aid, etc. Fairmont, a larger town, is just a few miles down the road. We will be back to enjoy Nature’s Song. We hope that you will include them in your future vacation plans. Dan and Lynette Morgantown, WV

    A Really Fine B&B Experience

    October 09, 2012

    Joanna and Arthur set goals and achieve them! They determined they wanted to own/operate a B&B and they have "set the bar" high for other inn-keepers. They are terrific hosts who treat their guests like they would hope to be treated if roles were reversed, by taking time to engage in actual conversation, a talent that is dying in this age of social media. Their plan began long before they opened to guests and it is evident in the high level of fine detail you will encounter during your stay. Nothing is left to chance and if you need anything, all you have to do is ask and Joanna or Arthur will take care of it. The rooms are spacious--huge, suite arrangement with large private bath--and decorated to the last detail with the best part being an extremely comfortable bed. They began with a blank slate and have developed a serene, friendly B&B setting. They take care of all the work involved themselves and do an outstanding job of it! You would believe they are graduates of a fine Hotel/Restaurant Management program at a prestigious university. The whole property is clean and well-kept. The delicious breakfast of fresh tomato, toast, quiche - -crust of Canadian Bacon, with baked-pear starter, OJ, and milk, began the day. The lovely dishes were of antique quality. We would stay at this B&B again given the opportunity, and suggest others give it a try.

    At Home in West Virginia

    October 03, 2012

    My wife and I celbrated our anniversary weekend here. We could not have been happier with the whole experience. We had dinner one night with our package. We had read the rave reviews, but still were not prepared for the migic of Joanna's cooking! She deserves all of the accolades and more! She is an excellent chef/cook. Be prepared to be delighted. The house and rooms are roomy, compfortable and beautifully appointed. The setting is gorgeous. Joanna nd Arthur are wonderful hosts and excellent company. Good conversationalists, they are proud and passionate about the land they call home and so generaously share with you. We are so pleased to call these folks neighbors, and now friends. This is the very best part of being a West Virginian. You will have a wonderful experience here. We cannot praise it enough...

    Almost Heaven

    October 02, 2012

    My wife and I spent two delightful days at A Natures Song B&B. It was a unique experience for people like us who love nature. Joanna & Arthur have designed a perfect home in a perfect setting. We were impressed by many special touches they have created for their guests. They were congenial and informative hosts. Anyone staying in the area would do well to check them out. If we did not live in Texas, we would be frequent guests.

    Honeymoon

    August 31, 2012

    My new wife and I completed our honeymoon at this bed and breakfast. I will say if you want to get away from it all without being completely isolated you need to go here. I will also suggest dining at the inn at least one evening as Joanna's cooking is out of this world. We stayed at the Cabin on the Hill and at times during the night all we could hear was truly a nature's song. The sheets on the bed were probably the softest I have ever felt. Be warned about breakfast however. You will not leave the table hungry but the positive is you can eat a light lunch. It is a small bed and breakfast but both Joanna and Art want to genuinely make your stay with them unforgettable and as relaxing as possible. I would recommend this to anyone I know, especially if they want to get away from it all.

    Plush Pampering

    August 07, 2012

    JoAnn and Arthur are the gold standard in B&B hosts. Our overnight was a gift from our daughter, a former guest who stayed with her husband as a complimentary Veterans Day perk. The wonderful gourmet comfort food was served in casual elegance with many unique touches - all homemade fresh with healthy ingredients, and personalized from choice to presentation with subtle background music providing a relaxing atmosphere. We had a total experience - the house, grounds, food, new friends, personal pampering with numerous little details and surprises. Visit and discover it all for yourself! We'll be back.
