Space was lovely even in the bitter cold! It was great being close to things in town while still having a full kitchen. The host was very helpful and responsive.
The host was very welcoming and available if we needed anything. The house was well-stocked with coffee and tea supplies, creamers, games, including playing cards, and much more, so it was clear he was a caring host.

Thanks for the feedback, Teresa. It looks like you gave me a wonderful verbal review but only four stars. Not sure what you didn't like about the house. But thanks for staying and glad you had a great time.
The home was extremely welcoming and the decor was my favorite part. Vince is an outstanding host who responded immediately to any questions that I had. The house was fully stocked with every single thing that we needed. The coffee bar was a nice feature. My family enjoyed the hot tub in the garage. The house has more than enough space to spread out. We will definitely be back. Thank you Vince.

About the host
Hosted by Vincent Lombardi
Hi there — I’m Vince, and welcome to Meadowview Solar Haven.
Originally from Alexandria, VA, I traded a career in aerospace engineering for a life centered around nature, creativity, and hospitality here in wild and wonderful West Virginia. Today, I own a riverfront campground along the Dryfork River in Parsons, as well as this solar-powered mountain retreat designed for comfort, relaxation, and connection to the outdoors.
I appreciate thoughtful design, clean and comfortable spaces, and the little details that make a stay feel special — but I also believe in slowing down, enjoying the fresh air, and embracing the magic of the mountains. Whether it’s hiking, exploring hidden swimming spots, or simply relaxing on the porch at sunset, this area has so much to offer.
At Meadowview Solar Haven, you’ll find a peaceful setting with creeks, a private catch-and-release fishing pond, and sweeping meadow views from the covered back porch — all just minutes from Thomas, Davis, and Canaan Valley.
If you’re looking for recommendations, I’m always happy to share some favorites:
Blackwater Falls State Park – iconic waterfalls, scenic overlooks, and beautiful trails year-round Canaan Valley – hiking, biking, wildlife viewing, and seasonal skiing Dolly Sods Wilderness – one of the most unique and breathtaking landscapes in the region Thomas & Davis – local art, live music, breweries, and great food
If you’re looking for adventure, I can point you in the right direction — and if you’re simply looking to relax, you’ve found the perfect place.
I’m nearby if you need anything at all, but your privacy is always respected.
Looking forward to hosting you!
— Vince
