Our story
A hand-crafted cabin for two on ten gated acres, five minutes from New River Gorge National Park.
I spent my career in IT and I had to get out. Not a midlife thing. I wanted to build something that was mine.
I bought ten acres inside Fayetteville's city limits, five minutes from the park entrance, and put a gate across the front of it. Then I bought the best shells I could find anywhere. The A-frame is a Zook design. The mirror house is an ÖÖD, which shows up as exactly that: a mirror, and nothing inside it. The dome is by Pacific Domes. It arrived as a dome, and everything else had to be designed around it.
The shells are the easy part. What took six months on the A-frame alone was everything after: the foundation, the deck, the skirt, the pavers, the interior, every inch of the inside. I did that work. When a guest writes that every single inch of the space is used expertly, that's the part they're feeling.
The name came from something I couldn't shake: being out in nature, looking up at the sky, being on a farm, and still having luxury. Star Farm just sounded right.
So here's what it is. An open field. One gravel road that passes one stay at a time, each with its own stretch of meadow in front of it. Deer at dusk, fireflies after dark, and a sky that does most of the work once the sun's down. Three pieces of architecture: one of them open, two of them coming.
