Family stay
The property is beautiful setting for my siblings for my daughters wedding in West Jefferson. Few setbacks however The lights in mudroom did not work. We had to buy 2 string lights to have light for buffet setting. No plunger on the property had us go to store to buy one. Need more garbage pails and large bags. We had too buy and store trash in mud room. Lack of an essentials but very pretty setting. Garbage was left when we arrived

Perfect Friends Getaway in West Jefferson, NC – Cozy and Scenic Retreat!”
We had an amazing stay at this VRBO in West Jefferson, NC! The home is beautifully decorated with a cozy, rustic charm that instantly made us comfortable. The attention to detail in the decor really set a welcoming atmosphere, and we loved how it blended modern comfort with mountain vibes. The beds were incredibly comfortable! The location is perfect, offering a peaceful retreat yet close to all the local attractions. It’s spacious, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax. Whether you’re enjoying the nearby nature or just lounging inside, this place is a true gem. Highly recommend!

Thanksgiving in the Mountains
Absolutely perfect. Plenty of room for the grown kids and spouses. Guest house was perfect for the family with a small baby. Well equipped, a little bit of snow, West Jefferson was fantastic as always! A very relaxed and fun Thanksgiving.

Absolutely perfect for a large family! The kids are grown and could go and do all the things. We’d meet back up for supper and have game. It. Was. Perfect. And I don’t know who the brainchild was behind the renovation and decoration but we loved it. Clever use of space and great colors made it feel so homey. I didn’t want to leave. We WILL be back!!!

Oasis at the Heart of West Jefferson
Spent three nights and wished it had been longer in both of this property’s buildings. A terrific retreat walking distance to downtown West Jefferson. Multiple decks, gathering areas, quiet reading spots, fire pits and well stocked as well.

Perfect location for downtown events
We stayed here for my son's wedding about 10 miles east of West Jefferson. Rehersal dinner was at Craft Bistro in town. Friends an family from around the country were in and we thoroughly enjoyed the ability to walk to breweries and restaurants in town while still enjoying an isolated setting. The driveway entrance is not very intuitive coming off the street as you actually turn into and pass through a used car lot to get to it. Once you figure yhat out, it is very easy.
Super clean and well appointed home. We could live there year-round! The garage apartment was a huge benefit with separste bath and kitchen. Firepits were great though the one nearest the house was enveloped in tree limbs less than 8 ft avove the flames. These should be trimmed to prevent setting them alight.
We really enjoyed our stay here and will be back.

Wedding Week
My daughter's wedding was in West Jefferson at The Barn On The New River. This property was absolutely wonderful and perfect for us as we enjoyed wedding festivities and came back to relax at beautiful Walnut Hill. I fell in love with this home. It is so charming, decorated beautifully, and gorgeous views all within minutes of tge center of town. It feels private and secluded with convenience to shopping and resturants. We will be back!
