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: We had a fantastic time at Mountain Jewel! It was the perfect weekend getaway. The house is positively charming and relaxing. The cabin has just enough amenities to give its guests the modern comfort without losing its rustic charm. It was also very convenient to downtown, grocery stores, restaurants, and parks. Whether you are looking to relax on the porch and listen to the creek with a cup of coffee, or be a social butterfly downtown, you will enjoy your stay here. There is also a fire pit and camping chairs if you wish to sit outside and make s'mores!The rental company was also very efficient; they even called telling us that we could check in early!

I really have no complaints other than the Air Conditioning not working throughout the stay. Lucky there was a Dollar General down the road and a few fans later we were able to sleep through the night.

Quante place to stay in Ashe County

Over all it is a nice place to stay we were there for 15 days, has a little old with a little new flair. Like many places to stay in the area it has what you need could use some better cooking utensils we had to pick-up a few things to make it work for us. The small creek that ran along the backside of the property was nice to seat next too and listen to the water run by and see all the life that live there. Parking for more than one vehicle could be a challenge, has just one long driveway. We made it work. Has a nice firepit across the creek we were able to have some nice family time around the fire telling tall tales and making s’mores each night.

Enjoyed visiting the churches of the frescos and the Asche Cheese Factory & store. Gathering was at the old Methodist church camp on the river.

Didn't like the way the steps to the 2nd floor bedroom came into my room but all was well. Coffee Keurig was a challenge but it was all good. Family was a pain in the butt big time. Was so glad to leave them

Only complaint I have is the size of the master bath. As a 6 foot 4 guy the shower was tight since the whole bathroom was only 8x8. I was surprised to be a house that sleeps 7 only 3 people could watch TV together without moving chairs from other rooms but it worked for us.

Quick weekend - Perfect location

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: We have relatives that line in Jefferson Landing, but wanted our own spot to relax and unwind when not at their house. This was perfect. We have a small family(3 + dog), so this cabin was ideal. We could have invited 4 others and their would have been room. Cozy cabin that has been updated, but still retains an aesthetic from many years ago. Well equipped kitchen was big enough for us, but we eat out a lot. Single couch in the "living room", but space dictates that you couldn't have more. Full size, shared bathroom and then small bathroom(stand up shower) connected to master. Good Wifi, updated TVs, coffee maker that supports basket or pod style. Yard well maintained with a running creek out back. With the windows open, it will put you right to sleep.

cute cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Mountain Jewel; however, the description of the property should disclose that much of the home includes some close to original structures as to not take visitors off guard. Slanting floors were a surprise, although we got used to the charm of them. Cutlery was minimal and kitchen could use a better variety of pots and pans. Window treatments need to provide more privacy. No coffee table...Overall, we had a wonderful time, as we always do in Jefferson/West Jefferson, just some suggestions for future tenants.

Mt Jewel- July 2023

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Worked great for our family. Property was very clean, linens were in excellent condition. Kitchen was stocked with what we required. We were in town for a family reunion that was being held at Jefferson Landing and this location was ideal. Getting to the upstairs was awkward as you have to go thru a bedroom. Only issue was the A/C went up the 2nd day and never came back on. The property mgr was helpful with trying to resolve, but we were unable to be there when the repair person might have been able to come so we persevered without.

We would suggest the addition of a back deck so you could enjoy the yard and stream. Rain had kept the yard from mowing, but we thought that would be nice.

NC Trip 2021

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 were blessed with 70 degree days and no rain for our entire 3 day stay. That was unexpected. We had a great time and the farmhouse accommodated the 6 of us just fine. Mind you we have 4 boys, 3 of which are 6'2" and above. The sleeping situation worked out perfect. The House was delightful, and it served its purpose of providing a place to come back to after exploring the trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The property was clean and well maintained. The only issue we had was that there were not many restaurants available during our stay. Boone is 40 min away but they have a mask mandate which we didn't want to deal with. We cooked our meals at the house and got to know the people at the Food Lion pretty well. Southern hospitality is a real thing. I would recommend this property for sure.
