This is one of our favorite mountain rentals ever! Easy process, great communication, clean rental, stunning views. We will definitely stay here again and love using High Mountain !!
Amazing views. The cabin was homily and everything was clean and well maintained. Highly recommend staying here for anyone who wants peace and quiet yet within easy distance of many activities and places to visit and enjoy. And it’s pet friendly!!
Beautiful views and a beautiful cabin! I wish it had some small blankets for sitting on the couch, but otherwise it had everything else you needed.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019

The views were absolutely gorgeous. Great location just a short drive to downtown West Jefferson. House was very nice and had a well equipped kitchen. Front and back porches were covered and perfect for sitting and enjoying the views and wildlife. Would certainly stay here again.
The house was perfect. Decorated for Fall. Beautifully clean. Location amazing.
Just unfortunate it was that particular weekend.we did our best to keep everything outside secure. There were a few leaks which we managed to keep off the wooden floors. In spite of no power or water for a while we managed to enjoy our short stay. We were the fortunate ones!
The online pictures do not give this cabin justice! The views are absolutely incredible and were a welcome surprise for this Florida family. The cabin was perfect for our group of 2 adults and 3 teens (12, 17 & 17). The older teens loved the downstairs TV room and us parents loved the view from the primary bedroom. The kitchen was adequately stocked and the washer and dryer was a bonus for laundering bath towels during our week long stay. The neighbors were friendly and the neighborhood quiet and full of wildlife. We saw plenty of deer and several foxes during our stay. The hot tub was perfect on chilly nights and lazy afternoons. There was a little snow leftover from the Christmas Weekend snowfall and the kids enjoyed mini snowball fights in the yard. I can definitely recommend 4 wheel drive or chains if there is a snow storm during your stay. While the paved roads to the cabin are beautiful and well maintained, the cabin is located on the crest of a mountain and would be perilous to leave or reach without 4x4 or chains. Our family fell in love with the little town of West Jefferson; visiting Main Street for shopping, Ashe County Cheese factory and store, The Log House for breakfast and Black Jack's Pub for dinner. Whole Lotta Doughnuts is a must visit also. An Ingles Grocery Store and a Wal-Mart are maybe 10 minutes from the cabin. We took afternoon trips to New River State Park, Grayson Highlands State Park and Grandfather Mountain via the Blue Ridge Parkway. Blowing Rock and Boone are about 40 minutes from the cabin. Our family enjoyed Tweetsie RR Christmas and SnowTubing at Hawksnest. Just driving the country roads and enjoying the scenery and small towns was probably our favorite time. If you are thinking about booking this home...do not hesitate! I hope your family will enjoy it as much as we did!
The property view is gorgeous. You will enjoy breathtaking sunsets with a western view from the back porch. The cabin is charming with two large rooms for entertaining up and downstairs.
This cabin was cozy and plenty spacious for 3 of us on a girls weekend trip to celebrate a wedding. The views are just stunning! We only stayed two nights and wedding events kept us busy, but we soaked in the views on our first night on the back deck. Really nice porch furniture! We were pleasantly surprised at the ease of location - paved roads and easy to access. Also close to an Ingles. It worked out very nicely to each have a bathroom to ourselves for getting ready.
Again though, the views… just spectacular! Thank you for sharing your cabin!
There was no shortage of views-absolutely stunning. Our family of 6 and 2 small dogs enjoyed waking up to deer each morning, spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and an all around relaxing trip.
The view was our favorite feature of this property and the sunsets were really gorgeous. The cabin met our needs just fine and being able to bring our dog was extremely important to us. We also enjoyed seeing all of the deer around the cabin. We would definitely book this cabin again.
The week we stayed in this West Jefferson stay for New Years was one to not forget. The views are amazing from the cabin and surrounding neighborhood, and the cabin itself was well kept and more than big enough for my family of 4 to stay. There were several activities within 30-60 minute driving distance including hiking, wineries, breweries, shopping and restaurants. I highly recommend this cabin for a group wanting to experience the mountains for an extended time.
We absolutely loved our stay in this home!! The views were amazing from the back porch and spa. I could have sat there all day. A very quiet neighborhood and very convenient to town. Loved walking downtown West Jefferson. Had great hikes near by in West Jefferson State Park , Cascade Falls and Elk Knob. We were able to take a beautiful 1 hour drive to do a bike ride on the Virginia Creeper Trail which was amazing. The home had everything we needed to stay there and cook and relax and take in the views. Very clean. Our only issue is that the sheets on one bed are worn and scratchy so we used the sheets from the other bed. Loved watching the deer, birds, bunnies , butterflies and hummingbirds as we sat enjoyed the views. We will definetly come back to stay here.
We enjoyed a relaxing stay with gorgeous sunsets on the back porch. We love seeing the hummingbirds zip by and the deer graze down below. One evening a black bear was snacking just outside the fence which was a real treat!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The views were awe inspiring and the cabin is excellent! The cabin layout and the attention to detail were exceedingly inclusive and complete and helped punctuate our wonderful time here. Will definitely return!
The cabin was beautiful, cozy and had breathtaking views of the mountains. We enjoyed sitting out on the balconies watching the sunset, and the hot tub was wonderful!
Everything was pretty clean, except the beds (sheets, linens) felt dirty. That was the only small issue we had. We would consider renting this property in the future.
We absolutely loved this cabin! The views were amazing, the location was perfect, and it was clean and very comfortable. Will definitely stay here again!
The house is exactly as it's described on the website. Before arriving, we received all the information that we needed for the trip. We had a wonderful time. The house was very clean and comfortable. Very quiet and relaxing. The view is SPECTACULAR. Will definitely come back.
The property was just as described. The views were absolutely amazing. We spent a lot of time on the back porch just gazing at the mountains. Saw plenty of deer everyday we were there. The beds were very comfortable. The hot tub was the perfect size for a family of 4. My only complaint was that the property was not as clean as expected.
The views are nothing sort of spatular. The valleys and range off the back deck are not overly developed and you can enjoy quiet nights. The deck faces East so the sun can be a bit intense when setting. However, one can then sit on the front porch.
Easy drive to West Jefferson and ~ 35 minute drive to Boone and Blowing Rock. Definity plan on coming back.
