Great location within walking distance of town. Super cute home. The only issue was the bathroom downstairs in the master bedroom. The shower curtain was very mildewed so it made the bathroom smell bad. Some of the towels even smelled like it. Easy issue to remedy though so we would rent again.

The house is quite convenient for walking to downtown West Jefferson or the park. It is also close to Mount Jefferson for hiking/picnic/scenic overlook and not far from the Blue Ridge Parkway for a relaxing drive. Located in a quiet neighborhood, it was clean and everything worked well for us. We'd come back here again if we ever have opportunity to vacation in West Jefferson again.

It was a beautiful property quite lovely and we enjoyed our stay. The only criticism we had was the mildew smell in the master bathroom, which could have come from the shower curtain that was more of a cloth than a plastic liner.

Could use improvement with landscaping, house is old, quaint, clean. Downstairs bathroom could use updating, hard to see in bathroom mirror. Lacking basic necessities like toilet paper, tissue and bath towels. Loved the location and had an overall fun weekend.

Thank you for the review! We will get with the owner and see what we can do about updating the landscaping! We also provide a starter pack of toilet paper, paper towels, and soaps. If you are staying for longer than a few days, you may need to bring extras of these! We also provide two towels per guests in most situations, although there are always extras. If you ever have any questions, or need any extras, just give us a call!

Clean, convenient - high host fees

Clean, bright, nicely redone old house just a couple of short blocks from "Main Street" (Jefferson Ave). No dishwasher or washing machine - which was no problem for us. Nicely outfitted kitchen with all the basics, plus a french press. Lots of old house character. Very nice to have a bedroom and daybed (in the sunroom) on the first floor. Upstairs bedrooms don't allow closet access and there's not really anywhere to hang clothing (fold-down hanger in one room would hold a few light items). Plenty of linens for kitchen and baths. Perfect for a girls' getaway weekend. However, the host and service fees add up to more than 300 - which was more than the weekend rental total. Rather misleading, but probably wouldn't be such a big deal if you're staying longer. Of course, we knew this before we booked, but if you're searching by price this looks much cheaper than it actually ends up being.

Much needed getaway

Nice quite neighborhood. House was beautifully restored, lawn and landscaping was perfect. I absolutely loved the kitchen, took me back to memories of my grandmothers house. Towels were very nice and plentiful. Bedding was quite comfortable, we couldn’t find a blanket though. The only complaint is you have to take your trash with you. In all of our years renting through VRBO that was a first. We had no contact whatsoever with the property manager but was required to mark a star.

Great spot near West Jefferson downtown

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house has been tastefully redone and is very comfortable. It is conveniently close to the downtown area, and we used it as a place to stay to when doing the creeper trail. Just lovely!
