Fall Trip to the Gorge

This was our second stay at LaFayette Flats. The apartment was as clean, comfortable, and beautiful as our last trip. The location is convenient to everything for the gorge. It is walking distance to restaurants, coffee, and shopping. I look forward to coming back in the future.

New River Gorge Jump Point

By far the nicest rental space we have ever stayed in and in the past year we've done Hawaii/West coast/Europe and nothing comes close...you can tell a lot of thought and true caring was involved in the presentation of the space. Amy and Shawn were very responsive to any of our needs...which were few...great location to visit downtown Fayetteville as well as the New River Gorge Attractions....Highly recommended!

Cleanest Short Term Rental & Hotel I've ever stayed in!

The title says it all. I could smell & feel the cleanliness of the bed sheets! Description was exact, the location was perfect and the communication was great! Be very confident when booking this place. We also truly enjoyed the Escape-a-torium just next door! We loved the escape room so much we ended up doing 2 rooms! Had a blast!

Lafayette Flats is an excellent place for a couple to stay. It’s convenient to local tourists sights, immaculately clean, tastefully decorated and stocked with high end supplies. We loved the historic old building and easy walks to a couple of unique locally owned breakfasts locations. I would recommend to any couple looking for a relaxing getaway stay. The only negative we found was that dinner locations are limited through the week. Several interesting dinner locations don’t open until Thursday. Everything else was very much to our liking.

Extremely unique property (in a very good way)

Fayetteville likes to claim (for good reason) that it is the coolest small town, and Lafayette Flats has to be the coolest accommodations in Fayetteville. My wife and I agreed that this rental had to be one of the most unique short-term rentals that we every had. The property was immaculately clean, and the unit was well furnished and stocked. But it was the incredible artwork and impeccable taste that the owners displayed that really stood out We would definitely come back if we return to the New River Gorge area.

Perfect change up for a out of town date night

Everything was great! We stayed just one night. Within walking distance to several coffee shops, bars, boutiques and vintage stores. Everything was as described and pictured. They have everything you need, plenty of linens. We took advantage of the board games! The only thing I could say negative is the bed is definitely for people who like a firm mattress. It is made of memory foam but it was a little too firm to our liking. It would also be nice to have a king size bed in there instead. Everything else was perfect! Thank you so much!

Lafayette Flats is a lovely place to stay when in Fayetteville. The communication from the owners (Amy & Shawn) was amazing.

Right in the thick of things

Our stay at the Quinnimont Flat at Lafayette Flats in Fayetteville was a treat! We were within walking distance of several restaurants (Cathedral Cafe, Pies and Pints, the Stache for ice cream) and had a nice kitchen to heat up the leftovers. It was a short drive to the New River Gorge Visitor Center, the bridge, and Ace Adventures where we booked our whitewater rafting trip. All kinds of little touches and comfy furniture and bed.

Relaxation, Rejuvenation & Inspiration

My wife and I were told that “we need to see and experience this place”. Our friend knew us well because the Flats were even better than we had anticipated. The art that lined the path to our space was like walking through an art exhibit due to the variety of styles and mediums. Once we entered our area we said, “wow” with our first step in. This became a trend as we familiarized ourselves with each space. Every layout, every texture, and every room in this Flat was perfectly laid out-just an amazing example of how to design a place with function and beauty. Sincerely, the Flats is a brilliant space to simply stay in as the destination. 10/10! Thank you!

Gorgeous, peaceful and serene

Where do I begin? This is truly a luxurious flat! We were impressed from the very beginning of the rental process. Amy was so helpful and answered all of our questions, and since this loft is in my hometown, I knew exactly what a gorgeous view of our courthouse we would have during our stay! Every detail was carefully thought out, from the Fiestaware in the kitchen to the bathroom with two pedestal sinks (we stayed in Quinnimont). The local artists--including my best friend of 30 years--have works beautifully displayed throughout the lofts and hallways. The building is nearly 120 years old, and it is evident how carefully Amy and Shawn preserved the beauty of it during their renovations. That tub is worth the whole price of the stay, lol! We will most definitely rent this flat again anytime my husband and I can make it for a visit. If you want to visit my beautiful home state of WV for some outdoor adventures, we highly recommend Lafayette Flats.

Excellent Experience in Quinnimont at Lafayette Flats

My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary in Fayetteville and stayed in Quinnimont at Lafayette Flats. This will be my go-to lodging option for future adventures to the New River area! The flat was even better than pictured and located within walking distance of everything in town.

About the host

Hosted by Amy McLaughlin & Shawn Means

Host profile image
I'm Amy and my husband's name is Shawn. We were both born and raised in Charleston, WV, where we still live and we both work for the same non-profit organization. Charleston is only about one hour from Fayetteville, so lucky for us, the best vacation spot in West Virginia is close by.

Lafayette Flats began with our simple desire to get out of town. We found out early in our relationship that we travel together well and we love to do it as often as we can. We love taking weekend driving trips to places like Asheville, Columbus, Charlotte and Louisville, and we've been all over our home state of West Virginia.

Many years ago we drove across the country on Route 66 and last fall we toured Northern California - Yosemite, Redwoods, Wine Country - we loved it all. But big trips are few and far between, so we satisfy our travelin' Jones by making the drive up to Fayetteville as often as we can. Maybe it's the Bacon Jam at The Secret Sandwich Society or the breathtaking views from Long Point Trail, but something keeps us coming back again and again.

We looked for a small apartment in Fayetteville that we could rent, just to have a home base where we could escape to on weekends but found nothing suitable. After months of searching, we decided to take on a project where we could build our own space. We looked at several opportunities, but the one that caught our eye was the historic building on the corner of Court Street and Wiseman Avenue - known as 'The Malcolm Building.' This building was built in 1906 to house The Bank of Fayette and is on the National Register of Historic Places as part of Fayetteville's Historic District.

We spent the summer and fall of 2013 renovating the building - doing much of the work ourselves. We are eager to show off our space!

Why they chose this property

Our love for Fayetteville and the New River Gorge area caused us to something we had never done before: We bought and renovated this historic cut stone building, transforming the top two floors into four apartment-style vacation rentals. Quinnimont is one of four flats in the building and the one that we call our second home.

Since it is on the Historic Registry, we were very intentional in our renovation plan to leave the building intact as much as possible. Originally built to be an office building, each floor only had one common bathroom and the heating in the building was hot water radiators. Since it was built before electricity, the electrical system was a hodgepodge of makeshift circuits and ancient fuse boxes. Along with these negatives, though, were a lot of positives: The beautiful original woodwork is still there and the fortress-like construction means that the building is very sturdy. The beautiful cut-stone exterior looks exactly like it did when it was built a century ago.

Our renovation plans preserved the woodwork and the basic configuration of the building. Installing a new electrical system and the plumbing necessary to support two additional bathrooms and kitchens was done in such a way as not to change the character of the building. Fire codes made us make some alterations to doorways, but overall the building looks as it has for the last century.

But in spite of the ancient spaces of this small town former bank building, the interior design is chic, modern and urban. We want to offer visitors to Fayetteville something completely different from the campsites, cabins and large vacation home rentals available in the area. Furnished with all the comforts of home and decorated to the nines with local original art and many unique design elements, this is not your typical vacation rental! We want you to more than just feel at home - we want you to wish that you lived here!

What makes this property unique

Lafayette Flats Boutique Vacation Rentals are designed for couples.

Lafayette Flats combines the stylish, modern design of a boutique hotel with the privacy and local flavor of a vacation rental. Our efficient booking process, high cleaning standards and luxurious amenities are what you find in an upscale hotel, but we have no front desk to slow you down and you can relax without the daily intrusion of cleaning staff.

Our downtown location right across from the beautiful Fayette County Courthouse allows our guests to park their car and relax. Lafayette Flats is close walking distance from all the great shops, restaurants and pubs Fayetteville has to offer and a very short drive to all the NRG trails and adventure activities.

But it’s the interior of Lafayette Flats that’s really special. Throughout all four of our boutique vacation rentals, we showcase original, contemporary WV art and we have a library full of books about WV and by WV authors.
