Gather. Relax. Bond.
Private Social Retreats
Where special moments become treasured memories.
Tucked into the peaceful edge of the Washington & Jefferson National Forest, Honeylight Glamping is a private micro-resort available exclusively for group rentals, thoughtfully designed for people who want to gather — without giving up comfort, beauty, or space to unwind.
Located just two hours from the Washington, DC Metro Area in the Lost River Valley of West Virginia, Honeylight offers a rare balance of inviting shared spaces and private, quiet retreats, making it ideal for meaningful time together in nature. .
Whether you're cooking together, wandering quiet trails, or just lounging with a view, every moment invites ease. This is where mornings start with birdsong and evenings end with glowing embers and laughter under a canopy of stars. Simple, serene, and unforgettable.
From toasting marshmallows under the moonlight, to sipping coffee as the mist rolls through the trees, Honeylight invites you to cherish what truly matters: relaxation, quiet beauty, and the rare gift of unhurried togetherness.
Well-behaved dogs are always welcome!
