A large TV and custom bar make this space perfect for both relaxation and fun. For additional sleeping, the couch pulls out to a queen sleeper sofa, with a half bath for conveniently located nearby.

Outdoor Living:
Step outside and immerse yourself in nature from the private balcony on the top level, the large wrap around deck on the main level, or the patio opening out to the back yard. Each of these overlook the lawn and the beautiful New River. The spacious, flat yard is perfect for outdoor games, while the beautifully designed firepit area offers a cozy spot to gather under the stars.

We had a nice quiet stay. Make sure to explore downtown West Jefferson. There's also green mining at Emerald Hollow Gem Mine.

Overall, we were happy with the property. Some suggestions/feedback: the TV was hard to navigate. The men could not figure out how to get the football games on. Instructions would be helpful. For the best of our knowledge, the downstairs TV isn’t hooked up to anything. The basement has a spider problem. Many were stepped on. I didn’t find a broom to sweep them up, but also wanted them to be evident so proper action can be taken. Bedrooms are all a great size- upstairs bedrooms could use a comfortable chair to sit on.
