Canaan Valley is a most unusual place. "Little Canada" old-timers
called it. The highest valley east of Denver 3600 ft elevation; so
much snow in winter that the road use to close for weeks. More deer
than people by a long shot and a real feeling that you are someplace
unique and unspoiled like Yellowstone except much smaller and still
virtually unknown. Canaan Valley hosts two state parks, rustic and
beautiful Blackwater Falls State Park and the newer Canaan Valley
Resort which has an excellent 18 hole golf course. Plus there are two
downhill ski areas in the valley; the largest is Timberline and the
smaller Canaan Valley which now also offers tubing. Also the popular
White Grass cross country ski area and miles of trails in surrounding
Monongahela National Forest.

Other places of interest include majestic Seneca Rocks, the pastoral
Amish farm country in Oakland Maryland, and the rugged Dolly Sods and
Otter Creek Wilderness areas.

Northpoint Cedar Home Community overlooks the Valley

We own a vacation home at Northpoint in Canaan Valley which we call
Hummingbird Ridge. We bought our house because it had a great view of
the valley both winter and summer. You may take a tour of Canaan
Valley area and our vacation home on our web site. Check out what our
guests said about the area. We offer location maps of Tucker County,
West Virginia and our ski areas plus information about what's
happening now as well as new businesses that opened there like The
Purple Fiddle and or our favorite Italian kitchen Sirianni's.
