Great location for a wedding we attended. Property was very clean , beds comfortable , decor updated, deck and view were great ! Highly recommend this property . We will definitely rent again .
The cabin is truly beautiful and is definitely one of the best places we've stayed in the NC mountains over many years. Would rent it again. The layout was perfect for us three old ladies in our 70's! Host was attentive and quick to respond to our needs.
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay. The Cabin was as described and very clean. We visit West Jefferson and enjoyed the small mountain town. The Cheese Factory was awesome. Couldn't find the creek until we took a wrong turn. LOL thanks from all four of us.

Had minor problem with sink disposal leak, host had it fixed within an hour or so. Will definitely use this property again.

Very clean, comfortable and a nice big deck with outdoor fireplace. The hosts were very professional and helpful. The setting was a little to close to the neighbors and the gravel roads leading to the cabin were very rough.
What a beautiful home, so easy to get to, amazing view, the outdoor space is absolutely perfect for relaxing. The property manager was so awesome as well thinking of details about our dogs to insure the remained safe.
Had an amazing time with my family, the house is incredibly beautiful with breath taking views, plenty of room for everyone, awesome hiking nearby, will definitely come back in the future. Ty so much for this amazing rental.

Reviewer Comments:
The location was very nice - quiet. There are houses around but thanks to the terrain, only one is somewhat visible. The view from the deck is very nice. Property management firm was VERY responsive - we were impressed.Pros:- Location- Quiet- Dishwasher!!- Garbage Disposal!- Excellent Wi-Fi- Good TV access (via Dish Network)- Washer - Dryer but...- Tankless hot water- Very comfortable king sized bed- Good AC and heat- Comfortable sofaIssues:- Linens have long needed refresh. Owner would benefit - from replacing bed linens and towels every six months.- Two pots - one skillet - lot of lids???- Mismatched silverware- Junky outside and "thrown together" inside- Very small shower heads- Nice to have a "welcome" basket of amenities for guests such as K Cups, some snacks etc.- Very very cheap toilet tissue, paper towels and trash bags - bring your own- No toaster (but a fully functional toaster oven)- No Keurig coffee maker- Refrigerator was - believe it or not - too cold. Kept freezing everything in the refrigerator section.- Firewood caddy should be stored under the porch so firewood doesn't get wet in the rain- Sprayer on kitchen sink was broken- Washing machine needs the mechanical dial replaced (it's not electronic so it is a fairly simple repair job to replace the mechanical dial).

House was very clean and very well furnished. Would definitely stay there again. Enjoyed seeing wildlife in back yard too!
We loved the property and had an amazing time. Our Thanksgiving day was really special because we spent it in this beautiful house. The outdoor fireplace was great to sit around on a cool November night.
The cabin was lovely and well maintained. The porch was gorgeous. The personnel at the rental off were friendly and accommodating. We would rent this property again.
