Downtown Fayetteville Home | Walk to Dinner | Fire Pit, Sleeps 8

Delightful DT Bungalow by Stay Delightful

Entire home. 4 bedrooms. Sleeps up to 8. Downtown Fayetteville, walking distance to restaurants and coffee. A backyard fire pit. Three minutes from the New River Gorge Bridge. This is a private, whole-home rental — no shared spaces, no other guests on the property. You have the entire house, front porch, and backyard from check-in to check-out.

Your walkable gorge basecamp.

You pull in, unload, and dinner is a walk away — not a drive. The porch is out front for the slow morning. The fire pit's out back for the slow evening. The Bridge is three minutes if you want it, and the kitchen's ready if you don't feel like going anywhere at all.

THE HOME

Four bedrooms — enough for a family trip or two couples who each want their own door.

Primary bedroom: A quiet, well-appointed room with its own ensuite — a shower plus an antique clawfoot tub, if you'd rather soak.
Guest bedroom: Full bed, board-and-batten walls, good natural light.
Twin bedroom: Two twin beds with a vintage teal dresser — right for kids or a pair of friends who don't need to share.
Fourth bedroom (TV room): A queen sofa bed in the home's TV room doubles as a movie-night hangout space by day and sleeps two more by night.

THE BATHS

Two full bathrooms — the primary ensuite has a shower and a vintage clawfoot tub, and both bathrooms are stocked with fresh towels and the basics. Mornings move fast even with the whole house up.

THE KITCHEN

Green cabinets, a shiplap ceiling, a checkerboard floor underfoot, a farmhouse table in the middle of it — it doesn't feel like a rental kitchen; it feels like the kind of kitchen you'd actually want at home. French press and drip coffee both going while everyone finds their footing in the morning, a proper tea kettle, full cookware, and baking sheets already in the drawers. Make a real breakfast before a day at the Gorge, or come back and cook a slow dinner once everyone's off the trail.

THE LIVING SPACE

This is where the day winds down — a white-brick fireplace lit for atmosphere, not heat, and enough room for everyone to find their own spot after being out all day. Just off it, the dining room sits under a chandelier, New River Gorge Bridge photography on the walls — the kind of detail that tells you someone actually lives in this house, not just furnished it for guests. Vogue Living featured the home in February 2021, and it still has that feel: lived-in, not staged.

THE OUTDOOR SPACE

The front porch is made for slow mornings — coffee in hand, downtown Fayetteville waking up around you. Out back, you've got two options depending on the kind of evening you're after: a fire pit for the group that wants string lights and a story going, or the bistro patio for something quieter. Bring your own firewood or charcoal for the fire pit; everything else is ready and waiting.

Most groups end up out here longer than they planned — porch in the morning, fire pit or patio at night, and nowhere in particular they need to be in between.

Where you are.

3 min → New River Gorge Bridge
8 min → Long Point Trailhead & Endless Wall (the park's best bridge views)
25 min → ACE Adventure Resort
35 min → Summersville Lake
5 min walk → Downtown Fayetteville's Court Street: restaurants, coffee, breweries

You're a walk from dinner and minutes from the Gorge. That combination is rarer than it sounds.

WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR

Couples and families marking something — we've hosted anniversaries, milestone birthdays, and more than one family in town for a wedding. It's the kind of place that makes an occasion feel like one.
Groups of 4 to 8 who want to walk to dinner after a full day at the Gorge — friends on a rafting trip, extended family, or anyone tired of moving cars around.
Design-minded travelers — guests regularly tell us the home itself, not just the location, is why they booked.
Couples and solo travelers looking for a quiet getaway close enough to walk to coffee and dinner.

PARKING

Free on-street parking directly in front of the home. Space for up to 3 vehicles. No dedicated driveway or lot — plan accordingly if your group is arriving in multiple cars.

GOOD TO KNOW

No pets. (Traveling with a dog? Our Delightful Gorge Getaway in Oak Hill has a fully fenced yard set up with pets in mind.)
Built in 1928 — full of character, but worth knowing going in: it's an older home, not new construction. Original floors and doors, the occasional creak.
The fireplace is decorative — it sets the mood but doesn't produce heat.
Bring your own firewood or charcoal for the fire pit.
One exterior security camera at the front door, outward-facing only. No interior cameras, anywhere.
Smoke alarm and carbon monoxide alarm are installed and active.
Check-in: 4:00 PM · Check-out: 11:00 AM
Quiet hours apply — neighbors live on this street, and they've been great.
