    This cabin really exceeded my expectations! It was very clean, the beds and leather furniture were so comfy. The kitchen was fully stocked and great attention given to detail throughout the whole cabin. Driving up the gravel driveway was a little tricky but i would still give this property a 10 rating. I would love to stay here again! 😊

    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.

    Very nice cabin. Well equipped for cooking and dining in. Easy driving access to West Jefferson, grocery, golf course, and the river but secluded from traffic. Clean upon arrival, easy wi-fi access and strong signal.

    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!

    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. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

    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
