About the host

Hosted by Oriana

We’re thrilled to welcome you to ‘Almost Heaven at the River’, a passion project brought to life by the three of us. Katja who is nestled locally in the historic town of Grafton, West Virginia, & CJ and I calling the vibrant deserts of Arizona home. As a veteran-owned and operated team, we’re a trio shaped by our own journeys across the globe. We’ve poured our hearts and souls into creating a space where adventure meets comfort, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

Maple Avenue is a quiet, peaceful, and quaint street, home to a warm mix of vacationers, young families, working professionals, and retirees. A short walk (~0.5 miles south) brings you to the Maple Avenue Community Park where folks gather under pergolas, enjoy BBQ grills, open grass, benches, swings, basketball and tennis courts, and a deck perfect for fishing. It’s a charming spot that adds to the neighborhood’s welcoming vibe. The Tygart Lake State Park and Valley Falls State Park are super close to enjoy the stunning views and be close to nature.

What makes this property unique

When we discovered this enchanting, turn-of-the-century treasure, we were over the moon! Built one & a quarter century ago (in 1900!!), this charming and timeless riverside home nestles along the Tygart Valley River, a lively hub of Grafton’s early 20th-century spirit. A town with deep historical roots tied to the Civil War, railroads, and early 20th-century development. Locals tell us that back then, Maple Avenue was THE place to be. It was a bustling haven for prominent families, railroad magnates, and parties filled with laughter and clinking glasses. We can only imagine the stories woven into these walls by those who once called this vintage retreat home.
