Fantastic property
All I can say is wow, this is one of the best places we stayed at using VRBO. Communication from the owner was incredible and the cabin had everything we could possibly need.Our kids are older now, but it was great to see how the property was stocked with all kinds of accommodations from high chairs to toys for very young kids. Our dog loved the wraparound porch and just did laps around it constantly

Loved our stay!!
I can’t say enough good things about our stay here. The cabin is in a great location to downtown West Jefferson (and even closer to the winery). The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking. It’s very kid and pet friendly and everything was very clean. We would absolutely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Spicer

Host profile image
My wife and I live I the Chapel Hill/Durham area with our three young children. We both grew up visiting the NC Mountains for vacations and fell in love with idea of having a place of our own! The West Jefferson area provides rest and relaxation along with many places to visit. The quaint downtown offers all you could imagine in a small town; including a cheese factory. The Boone/Blowing Rock area is just a short 30 minute drive. Our family enjoys visits to Mast General Store, mining for gems, picnicking on the Parkway and tubing the New River. The river also provides kayaking, fishing and rafting.

Why they chose this property

RUSTIC RETREAT combines the privacy of a mountain cabin away from others while only a short 15 minute drive from grocery, restaurants, hiking.

What makes this property unique

The small town of West Jefferson, with it's quaint storefronts and friendly people, make this country town a great place to relax!
