The Carolina Place, walking distance to downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This was a lovely, cozy and comfortable home. Close to town, restaurants and shops. We enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again in the future."

Modern Log Cabin TH Retreat | Peaceful | Mountain Views | Steps to Downtown WJ

10/10 Excellent

"This was probably one of the cleanest VRBO we’ve stayed in. I needed to stay an extra day, and the host was very nice and accommodating. I would definitely stay with them again if going to West Jefferson."

2BR/2BA Cabin Near Downtown West Jefferson Fireplace + Workspace

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay for MerleFest. The cabin is about a 45-minute drive to the festival, but it gave us a quiet, cozy place to relax and play music in the mornings.Access was easy with the key-coded lock. The cabin was very clean and exactly as pictured—tucked in the woods with a true log cabin feel, but with modern conveniences and thoughtful, homey decor. Beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped, including a single-serve pod coffee maker with a basket of pods provided.Nice extra touches like a welcome snack basket made it feel inviting. Despite the private, mountain setting, it’s very convenient—just minutes from stores like Walmart and Lowe’s, and a short drive to the charming downtown of West Jefferson.Would stay here again and highly recommend to others."

The Great Escape

10/10 Excellent

"This cabin was one of my favorite places we have stayed! It was very clean and comfortable. We loved it and can’t wait to come back. The location is very convenient to the city but you still feel like you are secluded. Also, we were able to get Door Dash delivery on the night of our arrival so we didn’t have to run back out to get food. We are looking forward to coming back here again."

Walnut Hill - 4BR/2BA Farmhouse Walk to West Jefferson, Fire Pit, Gas F/P

10/10 Excellent

"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: Everything about Walnut Hill Estate was delightful! The house was exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The spaces were perfect for my family of seven- cozy without sacrificing privacy. Being so close to West Jefferson downtown was a plus, also. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for us to gather as a family!"

Blueridge Mountain A Frame with XL Hot Tub and mountain views

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful property! Front start to finish, our stay was comfortable, enjoyable, and relaxing. Check - In: Property was easy to locate and close to town as stated. Easy parking. Check in process was seamless and all info was communicated promptly ahead of our stay. There was even a cute welcome gift which was a great added touch!Stay: We LOVE this A-Frame. It was well thought out in layout which creates for a cozy, and comfortable space. It was just my husband and I and we felt we could’ve stayed a month! The property was clean and there was not a single thing we wish the unit would have had. From small details (tooth flossers, makeup wipes, and laundry supplies) to the best parts (awesome shower, great hot tub, and comfortable bed) no detail was forgotten. The finishes and decor were done very well with mountain charm. The location was close to the very walkable downtown and there is so much to do in the surrounding area. We didn’t NEED to contact the host, but had a couple curiosity questions and the host was extremely prompt in responding. We ended up using the grill each night instead of eating out because it was so nice to be at the property. Check out: Easy peasy with a reminder message and a minimal “tidy up” checkout process. Overall this was a well thought out property and seems to be very well run. We look forward to returning in the future. Until next time!"
