Great Family Weekend at App State Students
We had a wonderful stay this weekend with our two girls who attend App State. Only 30 minutes to Boone and away from all the traffic! The cabin is beautiful and very relaxing. A great time spent with our girls where we could make them a home cooked meal and relax on the porch with the fire pit.

Great cabin close to everything!
Hubby and I needed to get away…booked this cabin last minute. Devon was immediately responsive!! Easy to get to. Bed was comfy, kitchen was the best stocked kitchen of any cabin we have stayed in. Only a mile from the Mount Jefferson Natural Park which was amazing ! Highly recommend!

Ladies weekend
We were a party of four ladies ranging in age of 47-70. The house was very comfortable during our stay and we felt very safe in the community & is close to shopping & downtown. One evening we saw deer crossing through the property after a light rain began to fall. It was a great weekend with family & friends and I would highly recommend this property to others. Check in was easy. Driveway is paved & the entrance to the home is level with easy access for those that may have some physical limitations. Check this one out!

Comfortable Cabin Retreat
My family and I decided to take a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives and travel up to the mountains. We loved everything about our stay. The cabin was well decorated, comfortable and had everything we needed while we were there. The owners were super responsive, kind and helpful. The cabin was conveniently located to grocery stores as well as restaurants and cute shops. Although the cabin is not in the middle of the woods we did not even notice the neighbors (we never heard them or saw them). We brought our pup and she loved the gated deck, the stream behind the house, the neighborhood loop and the state park up the road. I highly recommend staying here on your next visit to West Jefferson.
