The living room features a two story prow of windows, so you can snuggle up in front of the stone fireplace and still enjoy the stunning 180 degree views unhindered. In fact the front of the home is full of windows on all levels, so you can enjoy the beautiful views while eating dinner, relaxing in bed, playing pool, or even doing dishes in the kitchen.

Upstairs on the second floor you will find a second master bedroom with a log California king bed and direct access to the bathroom. The spacious bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub and large shower stall. The upstairs also has a second bedroom with a queen bed.
There is plenty to do in the surrounding area with easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, lots of great hikes, horseback riding, zip lining, fishing, kayaking, and tubing all within a short drive.

Paddy's Peak offers the best of both worlds, a completely secluded mountain retreat to get away from it all, with the convenience of town less than 2 miles from the bottom of the mountain. Escape from the world and let the mountain air refresh you!
During winter months if it snows, you will need 4WD/AWD to get to the house as it is at the top of the mountain. If weather is of concern, please purchase trip insurance. We do not refund due to bad weather or difficulty getting up the road to the house.
Note there is an exterior security camera under the deck pointed at the road leading up to the house. This helps us know if the road needs to be plowed in winter, monitor bear activity, and if unauthorized vehicles are at the house when it is not rented. We do not monitor it while the house is rented.

We had a great stay at Paddy’s Peak! May be our favorite place we ever rented. The views were breathtaking. The kitchen was fully stocked with any utensil you’d need. Rooms and beds were comfortable. The game room was perfect for adults to play pool and enjoy themselves while the kids played.
Absolutely stunning views in a beautiful, well-appointed home! Great hiking nearby, ample shopping in the cute town of West Jefferson, and delicious food & shopping at Third Day Market nearby. The owners are a joy to work with and quick to communicate. We have stayed here many times.

Thank you for the lovely review! Always a pleasure to host you. Great pictures, thanks so much for sharing!
The house was everything we could have asked for. The view was stunning and the hot tub and game room kept the kids entertained. Plenty of room for 3 families of 4. Communication with the owner was excellent.
The property is incredible and the view is spectacular. Would highly recommend for any size outing. If you want a nice workout, try the Paddy Mountain Trail, a new facility in West Jefferson. The host was very responsive.
This was a beautiful location, clean cabin, and great amenities. Everything we needed me more. We had a women’s retreat with 10 women, and there was plenty of room! Thank you for a great experience! We also enjoyed going into the town of West Jefferson to explore!
The house is perfect for a family gathering.
Main floor is very open with an amazing view of the mountains.
Lower floor is great for children and adults to play games.
We all enjoyed our time at the home.
Very clean, organized, and fully stocked with everything we needed. The downstairs room was great for the kids. We loved the house and really enjoyed our stay!
What a beautiful home in a private setting! The views were breathtaking and the house itself had everything we needed. Would love to come back again some day!
House was just as described. Lots of room to spread out. We loved the view and the game room! Will be returning to this property and will recommend to friends. Owner was very responsive to all of our questions!
This was a beautiful home with am amazing view. We stayed a weekend with family and we had a wonderful time. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, appliances, dishes, and utensils, which made preparing meals so much easier. We look forward to staying again!

Our family loved everything about this beautiful home. It is very clean and worth every penny spent.
For the first time on a vacation we actually loved staying in, there was so much to do with the children in the downstairs arcade. The children enjoyed Smores by the fire overlooking the beautiful view. The house was very clean and sanitary we will for sure be visiting again soon!

Thanks for the lovely review and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
We had the most incredible weekend at Paddy's Peak. The house and location are absolutely stunning! The host was very responsive and helpful, as well. You will most definitely need 4WD if there's any chance of inclement weather. We can not say enough great things about our experience. Look forward to staying at Paddy's Peak in the future!

Thank you so much for the lovely review! We look forward to hosting you again soon:)
Spent our second Thanksgiving week at this property and once again had an awesome time. The house is perfect for our crew from 3 years old to 65.
The kids (little and big) once again loved the game room, while everyone enjoyed the views.
Thanks for sharing.
This is wonderful cabin, excellent views and plenty of space. There seem to be a lot of storage locations that are reserved to the owner, which is their right but that did impinge a little on responsibly storing some of the gear we brought; not a big deal but if your group is large factor it in your planning. House was clean, well stocked and everything seemed to work fine. Host was great, pleasant to work with and all went well.Small negatives to be aware of; there was an absence of shower/bath soap or body wash. Plenty of hand and dish washing soap but it's a good thing my suitcase always has a couple of small hotel sized bars somewhere in it. We were there in August and the deck/hot tub can be very sunny and thus hot. View is great, and I would love to be in it in October but since the balcony faces south in the summer months you'll need sunscreen out there. Spring and Fall will be wonderful here.
Great House, amazing 180 degree view of the mountains, amenities above and beyond expectation. We will certainly be back. Although we had a lot of rain over the weekend, a fantastic time was had by all. Best rainbow ever when the sun came out. Cheers.

This is a wonderful home that must be experienced to be fully appreciated. Beyond the mountain views that go on forever, my family appreciated the multi-level and expansive separate living spaces. The basement with its games was a great place for the kids to escape. It was especially appreciated given that we stayed during a period of inclement weather. The property manager was especially attentive and helped us with all questions/concerns in real time. 10/10 in every way.

About the host
Hosted by Ginny Mahaney
We are a family of 4, all of whom love the outdoors. We fell in love with West Jefferson 20 years ago when we first visited for our 5 year anniversary, and have visited several times a year ever since. Over the years we've rented a large number of homes in the area, and always found them wanting in some way. We bought this land in 2005 and were thrilled to finally finish building the home that is our idea of the perfect getaway in 2014. The home is on 4 acres so is completely secluded and private, but is on the backside of the mountain next to West Jefferson so its just an 8 minute drive to the store if you need a last minute item for dinner. We've also made sure that the home has everything on the inside that we've missed in other properties such as sharp knives, a spice rack, electric can opener, lots of baking, cooking, and serving dishes, all the cooking tools you have at home, a roaster, a crock pot, a pantry to store enough food for 12 people, a table and eating area that can accommodate 10-12 people, spacious shower stalls with shower systems that include removable hand showers in all bathrooms, as many windows as we could squeeze in, great natural lighting throughout, and lots of stuff to do onsite. We hope you enjoy the home as much as we do and if there is something you'd like us to add, please let us know!
Why they chose this property
The views are amazing, and you can enjoy them equally from the inside or outside of the home. After dark or if it rains, there is plenty of indoor entertainment to enjoy bonding time with friends and family.
What makes this property unique
You will never be bored at Paddy's Peak.
