The house is comfortable and beautifully furnished. It is in a wooded, quiet, peaceful location. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware etc. There are some basic things that I’ve come to expect in vacation rentals which are not provided here, so you will want to bring them from home so as to avoid the 40 minute round trip drive to a grocery store. Not provided: soap or body wash for bathing; coffee (k-cups) for the Keurig; laundry detergent. A minimal supply of toilet paper and paper towels are provided, but depending on the length of your length of stay or number of people in your party, you may need more. There is a dog bed in the living room which my dog enjoyed. Overall, a good stay.

Hello Pat,
Thank you for the wonderful review! I'm so glad you enjoyed the cabin.
As noted in our listing description, we do not provide items such as soap, shampoo, laundry detergent or K-cups. This is how we keep expenses low and are able to rent the cabin at a great rate! We also include this information in the welcome packet sent prior to arrival so guests can plan accordingly and bring any personal items they may need.
We always encourage guests to review the listing details and welcome information carefully before their stay.
Thanks so much and please visit again soon!

Beautiful cabin and great location! Kitchen had everything we needed ! Cabin could use a deep cleaning and hot tub alittle cleaner ! But would definitely stay there again !!
Everything was exactly as described. Very clean. Lots of dishes and cooking equipment. Quiet and secluded. Close to west Jefferson but far enough away to enjoy the tranquility. Enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub.
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin! The cabin was clean and secluded. The location gives a private, peaceful feel, but close enough to town for groceries and activities. The cabin was as advertised and communication with the host excellent. Can’t wait to come back for another visit!

The cabin was impeccable and smelled brand new! The attention to every little detail was incredible. We felt at home during our stay. Karen was wonderful and answered my questions immediately.My husband and I stayed for 2 nights, but wish we could have stayed longer. We celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary here, and will definitely be back again next year!! This is the perfect cabin for a nice getaway to read, relax and reconnect with your spouse!!
Host was extremely responsive, kind, and helpful!! This cabin was extremely clean, well stocked with dishes, plenty of ice in the freezer (important to me). Beds are comfortable. Hot tub is clean and in great working order. Fire pit? Yes! Back porch overlooking the landscape? Yes! Gas fireplace kept us plenty warm. Wifi was a necessity since T mobile cell service is spotty here. Host even decorated for Christmas which was perfect, since we had our Christmas here. Dog friendly. I also found a secret walking trail (can you find it?). This is probably my favorite stay yet.

We absolutely loved this cozy, secluded cabin for our annual girls’ weekend. It feels tucked away, yet it’s only about a 20-minute drive to West Jefferson. Which was perfect for a day of shopping, great local spots, and delicious restaurants.The cabin itself fit our group perfectly. The four queen beds upstairs made it feel like an upscale adult summer camp, in the best way. The hot tub and spacious decks were ideal for relaxing, soaking, and long conversations.A short walk down the drive leads to the river, with picturesque views of the Christmas tree farm. It truly felt like stepping into a Hallmark movie for the weekend.Everyone agreed: this is our new annual spot!

About the host
Hosted by Karen Johnson
Hi There:) My name is Karen Johnson and I grew up in Cary, NC right outside of Raleigh, NC. I am married to my wonderful husband Jack and I have two beautiful boys, 25 and 28. I began purchasing and managing long term rental homes in my 20's and in my 30's progressed to short term vacation homes. I currently own one long term rental home, a log cabin in the NC mountains, a lodge in the NC mountains (Sugar Tree) a condo in North Myrtle Beach and I manage several other properties also. In my spare time, I enjoy interior design, custom building and traveling. My husband and I actually designed, built and decorated Sugar Tree Lodge all by ourselves! It took us a little over a year, but we enjoyed every minute of it! We are happy to be able to share our beautiful home with you and hope you love it as much as we do. We look forward to hosting you! Safe Travels! Karen
Why they chose this property
The lodge is unique because my husband and I actually built the entire cabin ourselves! It took us a total of 9 months and I designed it, he built it and I did all of the staining and painting. Everything is custom made, even the furniture, shelving, bathroom vanities and doors. This is a very unique property!
What makes this property unique
You are secluded and feel a million miles away from everything, but you are actually only 15 minutes from downtown West Jefferson, 10 minutes to Mt. Jefferson State Park, 25 minutes from Boone and Blowing Rock. You can walk to the New River also!
