West Jefferson is a wonderful area. We have been there many times and found lots of things to do for every season. The cabin is bigger than it looked on the website. Lots of room, the kitchen had everything that we needed. We hiked, played Pickleball, and golf. We also enjoyed meals in West Jefferson and Boone.

Great Place! My family wants to come back.

Great location! Close to town with other fun nearby locations to visit. - The town is nice and feels like Mayberry. - There are nice state parks that run along the river all the way to the Virginia border with hikes to the nearby mountains and rivers which my kids (8 and 12) loved doing. - The river also has public access pretty close to town which was clearly a local watering hole which I preferred to an ocean beach. My kids wanted to go to river multiple times on the trip. The house itself is nice and feels homey. The veranda going around the house was a huge hit with the family and I loved that the weather was in the 70’s at the cabin vs the 90’s at home in Cary.The place is clean though it could use a little TLC. We had a Chrysler Pacifica which is really low to the ground which would ground out if we didn’t take the roads at a good speed but I suspect a car with normal suspension should be fine. The driveway going to the house was a bit steep which may be a concern during the winter. We cook a lot when doing vacation homes. The kitchen is fully equipped but like most vacation properties, you will likely want to bring your own knives and favorite spices etc if you plan to eat at home a lot. We did donate a second nice-sized cutting board to the property - your welcomed! These though are all minor points compared to how nice and relaxing the place is.Great trip! My kids are already campaigning to go back again next year. Big thumbs up!

Great secluded getaway

This a beautiful property. Secluded and quiet but close enough to town to visit shops, get groceries, go to restaurants daily. The downtown area of West Jefferson is fun, beautiful, and friendly. Highly recommend this property. We visited with our 3 adult children and had plenty of room to spread out and relax. Would definitely visit again!

Our family had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The property was impeccably clean and well-maintained, both inside and out. It offered plenty of space, stunning mountain views, and our dogs absolutely loved the yard. The location was perfect—convenient to both West Jefferson and Boone.

Fantastic property

All I can say is wow, this is one of the best places we stayed at using VRBO. Communication from the owner was incredible and the cabin had everything we could possibly need.Our kids are older now, but it was great to see how the property was stocked with all kinds of accommodations from high chairs to toys for very young kids. Our dog loved the wraparound porch and just did laps around it constantly

Peaceful and well equipped

This property is exactly as described. Although the Mountain views are somewhat obstructed by trees, we actually found the setting more peaceful because of this. We were visiting to celebrate a graduation from App State, and had events occurring near West Jefferson at the App State Farm. For this reason, it was very convenient and an easy drive to events. We cooked most of our meals, and found the kitchen well equipped in terms of appliances and pots and pans. The furniture and beds are very comfortable, and there were numerous blankets and quilts to make our leisure time even more cozy. The property manager was very responsive and even accommodated a special request. This was a lovely stay, and I definitely recommend this property for future guests!

Cabin was fine, beds/pillows are very uncomfortable

Location is very pretty and cabin layout perfect for the 2 of us. We appreciated being able to bring our Yorkies. Wireless was also great, as was the grill. Wrap-around deck was wonderful. Unfortunately, the beds and pillows were very uncomfortable. We were there only 2 nights so not a huge issue but more than 2 uncomfortable nights might get old. The master and upstairs beds both moved/creaked excessively with the smallest movement, and mattresses had no support (nor were they the foam mattress type that is extremely comfortable). The pillows seemed very old stuffed with broken foam pieces and far too soft, and stained yellow when I removed pillow cases before departing. We did not try the twin beds upstairs so cannot comment on those. The kitchen could also use a few more essentials - a cutting board and glass drinking glasses (rather than only plastic cups and heavy beer mugs). Numerous matching coffee mugs - which was appreciated - but no sensible drinking glasses. Odd. The cabin also needs a very thorough cleaning to remove layers of dust from the kitchen backsplash and thick webs from the artificial flowers and all nightlights. Most of these are simply/easy fixes (except the beds)….. they were mostly minor annoyances and certainly not worth asking to have them corrected during our 2 day stay, though the host did reach out during to ask if everything was ok.
