We loved the spacious and comfortable accommodations at Barn Gate. The quiet surroundings, mountain-top views, and nearby trout streams provided perfect entertainment. We can’t wait for a return trip! Jerry & Cynthia Anthony Greensboro, NC Summer 2006

My family and I vacationed at this lovely cabin for 5 days during July. The cabin was clean, roomy and well furnished. The owner, Carole, was very friendly and made herself accessible by phone at all times should we have any questions or problems. The very best thing about the cabin, though, is the view. It is truly incredible! The quiet solitude was so relaxing. We saw only 3 cars in our first 3 days there. This is the perfect place to get away from it all but yet have the town of West Jefferson located only a short drive away. The Hardin Family North Carolina
