Fishing - Great fishing is found in the Greenbrier River with smallmouth bass being the main target species. Additionally, the Greenbrier River is stocked with trout during the spring months. The nearby Cherry River, Cranberry River, and Williams River in the Monongahela National Forest offer some of the best trout fishing in West Virginia.

Further, the 11-acre lake at Watoga State Park is stocked with trout in the spring and fall, and also contains largemouth bass and catfish. "Gold Rush" stocking of the elusive golden trout is common in the area.

Mountain Biking and Hiking
The Greenbrier River Trail and the Monongahela National Forest both contain miles of trails that may be used for mountain biking and hiking. The area also offers several State Parks geared for these activities as well.

Nature viewing is first in line of recreational activities. Attentive wildlife management has been geared not to just larger animals. Equal consideration has been extended to increasing the numbers and diversity of species including neo-tropical songbirds, butterflies, turtles, frogs, rabbits, chipmunks, dragonflies, owls, eagles, and hawks. White tail deer, black bear, beaver, red/gray fox, bobcat, wild turkey, grouse, duck, squirrel, raccoon, fox, and rabbit make up the resident wildlife population. It is hard to find an area that has a better mix of wildlife.

Stargazing-Planet Observation
Total or near total darkness can be still be found on the property, thereby affording the opportunity to view the night sky in all its brilliant wonder. The night sky is filled spectacular cosmic treasures, from the moon and other planets to distant stars and galaxies.

WATER RESOURCES
An unnamed blue-line stream towards the southern end of the property leads into an already developed, small wildlife pond and then continues into the Greenbrier River. Blue-line streams as shown on USGS topographic maps typically have year-round flowing water, except for times of extreme drought conditions. Additionally, Ol' Peachy Place is a "stones-throw" to the slow-moving, 162-mile-long Greenbrier River.

FOREST RESOURCES
Ol' Peachey Place's predominately well-drained upland terrain has led to a resource dominated by hardwood species. Overall, the species composition is highly desirable and favors Appalachian hardwood types, consisting primarily of White Oak/Chestnut Oak, Red Oak Group, Poplar/Cucumber/Basswood, Sugar Maple, Soft Maple, and a host of associate species.

Forest-wide, most of the stand is fully stocked, providing the next ownership with a great deal of flexibility in shaping their own silvicultural legacy. Stem quality forest-wide can be considered excellent with the forest containing a future veneer source.

Maple syrup production can be found on the adjoining property.
