Get Away From It All

Mountain vacations are all about letting the wonders of nature melt away our stress and give us a fresh perspective. Happinest gives you the stress-free environment you're looking for, enabling you to relax in comfort, surrounded by lush vegetation.

Happinest's spacious, deck lets you soak in the beauty all around you – OR soak your sore muscles in a sparkling hot tub under the sky. Gorgeous both day and night! The open upper deck includes the hot tub, rocking chairs, a gas grill and outdoor dining set.

The home's upper level provides the main living space, with an open floorplan, cathedral ceilings and lots of windows, so you can appreciate the home's natural setting from both inside and out. The kitchen is sunny and airy, with plenty of space to move around and all the tools and accessories you need for convenient home-cooked family meals or lively entertaining with friends. The roomy living area includes a beautiful stone fireplace with gas logs, brand new sofas and a large flatscreen TV with a Roku.

On the main level you'll find the master bedroom with a king-sized bed and private bath with a walk-in shower. The two additional bedrooms feature a queen-sized bed and two twins, respectively. These bedrooms share a full bath with a tub/shower combo.

When you're ready to get out and explore, you'll love Happinest's convenient location, with easy access to 221, which is the main road into West Jefferson, one of the most charming, old-fashioned small towns you've ever visited, only 15 minutes away. From 221 you can also get directly to 421, which takes you into Boone, Blowing Rock or the Blue Ridge Parkway. Here you really get the best of both worlds – a home convenient to all the sights and amenities you're looking forward to experiencing, and still secluded enough to provide the peace and privacy you need.

Location, Location, Location

Happinest is easily accessible to and from 221, which takes you to West Jefferson to the north, or Boone, Blowing Rock or the Blue Ridge Parkway to the south. In 10 minutes you can be at West Jefferson's gorgeous, challenging and beautifully manicured golf course, Mountain Aire. Drive another 5 minutes and you're in West Jefferson's quaint downtown. Stroll down the main street to browse through shops, antique stores and art galleries.

Boone and Blowing Rock offer additional dining, shopping and event options, as well as the campus of Appalachian State, and the lovely Bass Lake, near the Moses Cone manor home.

Two natural attractions you don't want to miss here in the NC High Country are the New River and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Parkway is one of the most scenic drives in America, offering some of the country's most awe-inspiring photo opps, as well as wonderful hiking and biking trails. When you're ready for invigorating water adventures, spend the day enjoying the New River by kayak, canoe or inner tube.

For the bicycle enthusiast in the family, Happinest is only a couple minutes from the scenic Railroad Grade Road – a popular, picturesque bike route meandering along the river from Fleetwood to Todd.

If you're visiting in the summer, your activity options are endless, from golf, zip-lines, horseback riding, hiking, biking, hiking, mining for gems, or assortment of water/river adventures. Fall foliage is indescribably gorgeous. Come in the winter, too, for just the snow, or sledding, snowboarding, skating and skiing at area resorts.

Dogs Welcome! Must be well behaved, leash/crate trained, 2 years or older and 45lbs or less. $50 / per pet. 2 dog limit.

StayBlueRidge, located in downtown West Jefferson, offers over 80+ quality vacation rentals in West Jefferson, Boone and surrounding areas.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Overall, a great stay. Lot's of coffee pods, tissue, towels and wash clothes, bedding and cookware. Many extras! Only issue we found was a need for dusting inside and pollen washed from porch. Yes, we would book it again! Enjoyed the isolation and very quiet surroundings.

Enjoyed our stay

We really enjoyed the "off the beaten path" feel of this place. It was a quick drive over to the various ski mountains and over to Boone for shopping and restaurants. Our favorite part of the house was the large basement with ping pong table, card tables and an extremely comfortable couch. We brought our own board games but there were also a lot of games available to use. We truly felt at home the entire stay and cooked our own meals in the well stocked kitchen. The hot tub was also a nice reprieve after snowboarding all day! Our only complaint (and a very small one at that) is we thought we would have more privacy here but there is one house directly behind the rental property that also shares an access road to the firepit area. We would still return in the future knowing this but would not bring along our stranger-reactive pet as she was easily agitated seeing the neighbors outside most of the day. Thanks again for hosting us! We had a blast.

Fall Girls Break

First I must say the pictures do not do justice for this beautiful home!! It is nestled in the trees with a wrap around deck to enjoy all the beauty that surrounds you. There are other homes close by but the tress provided much privacy. We came to enjoy the Halloween Ghost Train at Tweetsie and it was amazing!!! This was my sisters first trip to the mountains and she fell in love. The home is about 20 minutes from West Jefferson, Boone and a little farther down is Blowing Rock. My only complaint is we couldn’t stay longer!! The home is stocked with all you need to enjoy a night in including ping pong!! We hope to make this an annual trip and hope to stay here again!!!!!

Great cottage!

We loved staying in this house with our son and his family. It was so cool & comfortable after the heat and humidity of Alabama & DC. There was plenty of room for sleeping, cooking, & eating for our group of six. My son & his wife had to work some while here, and the internet was very good for doing that, We especially enjoyed the rocking chairs on the deck and the beautiful scenery. Our grandchildren loved the ping pong table and the other games. Thank you for making this home available for a wonderful week of vacation.

a weekend getaway

We enjoyed our stay but there were a few things that need improving. As soon as we walked into the cabin, it smelled as if it had been smoked in and shut up, the house had cobwebs in the master bathroom and dirt on the dressers. It could have been cleaned better in my opinion. The day we checked out the fire detector in the bedroom on the left kept going off. I would suggest a door stopper behind the front door as well. It was sufficient for the amount of time we stayed and it was cozy feeling.

Loved this house!

My family had a great time over theThanksgiving holiday. The house was fully socked to support our entire Thanksgiving meal. The board games and ping pong table were a huge hit with the kids. The hot tub was perfect and the property manager responded promptly to my call the night before Thanksgiving. You are about 15 minutes away from Mount Jefferson, it was a beautiful little hike. 30 minute from Boone, and an hour from grandfather mountain( which is incredible. The beds at the house could have been more comfortable for my liking. It was very firm and there were no tvs in the bedrooms. Those are my only complaints.

Great for a getaway with friends

This house was perfect for six friends on a weekend getaway. The hot tub was great, and the kitchen made it easy to cook meals together. The downstairs space was a hit, with the ping pong table and a corner for puzzles and games. The rooms were cozy and the bathrooms were clean. Property managers were nice to work with and their clear directions made it easy to find the house.

This property was everything we needed for a wedding weekend in NC! The hot tub was especially great. Some of the rooms were not even pictured on the listing, so we were pleasantly surprised with another bedroom and a garage full of space/games! Honestly, the photos did not do this cabin justice. It was much cleaner and updated than the photos made it seem. Would definitely stay here again!

Unclean with mold/mildew everywhere

To start, we were not given any information on how to access the property (Ie, key box access, or door codes). Cell service is very poor near the house, which makes it difficult to contact the host. Host was emailed three times prior to arrival, with no response. Once in the house, there is a pungent odor of mildew/mold in the lower level. It is overwhelming. All of the air conditioner vents are coated with mold. There is mold in the corners on the ceiling in the TV room upstairs. A friend on mine staying here, who has Asthma, has actually been complaining of worsening symptoms after being here for 2 days. To top it off, neither of the bathrooms where cleaned. There was hair and dirt on the floors when we got in. Overall, I would recommend strongly against staying in this home. Especially, with any sensitivity to mold/mildew. This house is actually a health hazard.
