Super peaceful and quaint tiny home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Super peaceful. Close to a river access, hiking trails, downtown, and a really cool winery. Only 25-30 min from Boone. If you want somewhere to go to disconnect and be in nature, this tiny home is perfect. But you could also work from there if needed (Wi-fi worked well, decent cell service, Smart TV, etc)

Peaceful Tiny House stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay in the tiny house outside of West Jefferson. It was mostly quiet (occasional road noise), very comfortable and peaceful. We wish the outside fire had been a wood burning firepit, but with the burn ban in effect- that would have been a bummer. For aesthetics, it also would be nice to have a head producing electric fireplace inside vs just the heater. The towels were clean but none of them were particularly absorbent. Bed was comfy and shower was nice. Entire place was well appointed. The neighboring properties were much closer than anticipated but everyone was friendly and gave us privacy and space. Sunset view was great and the stores and town of West Jefferson close by.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Nov 2023
Thank you for leaving a review of your recent stay at Petite Retreat. The owner has tried to think of everything you would need in a vacation rental while optimizing the space. The home does offer a mini split for heat and air. The neighbors may be close, but all are respectful and give you your privacy. We are happy you enjoyed your stay, and you will stay with us again.
