Nuttall is designed to luxuriously accommodate two adults, as are all four vacation rentals at Lafayette Flats.

BEDROOM – Have a relaxing night’s sleep on the medium/firm queen-size hybrid mattress with 100% cotton sheets, four pillows (two flat and two fluffy), and an alternative down all-season duvet with a cotton duvet cover. Room-darkening blinds provide privacy. Electric and USB outlets are conveniently located on both bedside tables to keep your phone close by while you both recharge after an adventurous day.

BATHROOM – Twin pedestal sinks, a claw foot tub, and a tiled shower await you in Nuttall’s spacious bathroom. Each vacation rental at Lafayette Flats has its own hot water tank, so you can enjoy a hot bath or a long shower – or both!

A makeup mirror, hair dryer, and 100% cotton bath towels and linens are provided to ensure you look and feel your best.

Fantastic

This property was extremely nice and accommodating. It's downtown within walking distance of some nice cafes and restaurants as well as an outdoor shop for rock climbers. The unit also had netflix, hbo max and apple tv pre installed and paid for (IDK if that was from a previous visitor or if its a feature) but it was awesome!

Best place to stay in Fayetteville

We absolutely loved our stay at the Lafayette Flats. We actually stayed in Eddy (originally booked Nutall but then switched to be on the top floor). The flat was spacious, immaculately clean (I’m pretty picky), and really comfortable. We enjoyed the provided coffee packs and supplies, appreciated the book of recommendations and information, and loved being right in town to walk to pretty much everything. Check in and check out processes were seamless, the stairs weren’t a problem for us (good workout!), and parking was easy and convenient. Amy was so easy to reach if we had any questions, and we could not have asked for a better place to stay in the are. Highly recommend!

Cute flat in small town near the bridge

The flat itself is very clean and well-decorated. It feels artistic but also cozy. It's located on one of the blocks adjacent to the one stoplight downtown, across from the courthouse. There's a few restaurants (and many shops) that easy to walk to. Overall, it was very quaint and quiet. Most importantly, the flat is fewer than ten minutes away from many hiking trails and the bridge itself. It's a great place to stay for a getaway. One minor note is that we found the bed to be a bit small (maybe it's a full; I'm used to a queen) and the mattress a bit uncomfortable (it's not hard, but it's not plush). That may or may not make a difference for you.

Perfect home base for visiting New River Gorge NP and surrounding area.

Everything went smoothly start to finish during our stay at the Nuttall Suite in Lafayette Flats. Communication from the hosts was excellent and the flat was beyond clean, comfortable and well appointed. The decor was inviting and filled with beautiful and whimsical art work and Knick knacks. A notebook containing info regarding the history of Fayetteville as well as eateries was helpful. We had a great time hiking, white water rafting, and doing the Bridge Walk. Everyone in this town so helpful and friendly! Two cute stores located right near the flats as well as restaurants you can walk to. Can’t say enough about the cleanliness and extra touches at Lafayette Flats!

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. Nuttall is one of four flats in the building.

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.

In spite of the ancient spaces of this small town's 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.
