Beautiful VRBO, fantastic location. This home is exceptionally clean and well-stocked. We loved being within walking distance to downtown stores, coffee shops, restaurants, a park, etc. We also loved spending time at the property enjoying the pool table, games, coffee bar, balcony, and other amenities. In full disclosure, there was some noise from traffic (which is expected on a downtown street), but that minor issue paled in comparison with the great qualities of this wonderful property. We can't wait to go back!

Beautiful space and well stocked to meet all of your needs. We were disappointed with the mattress in the master bedroom. It was very uncomfortable due to wear and probably time to replace it. My husband moved to one of the spare bedrooms and that mattress worked well for him.

The home is very unique and comfortable for families or couples. The location in downtown West Jefferson is charming with lots of restaurants and shopping you can walk to. We enjoyed the Saturday Farmers Market and pumpkin weighing contest as well. The owner was very responsive and professional. Would definitely recommend!

Lovely home

This loft has everything you need. Supplied just like your own home. Beautifully kept and in the center of town. A cute little town with some amazing shops. All walkable from the loft. The only negative was the mattress on the sofa sleeper is very uncomfortable and there is a lot of very loud traffic, although some of the big trucks are probably due to the clean-up from the hurricane. Even with that, we would still highly recommend this place.

Great time in West Jefferson

Family had a great time at this property. Location does make a great difference in a trip, close to everything to include shops, restaurants, and farmers market. Host kept us informed and answered questions quickly. Home was nice, entertaining and there was even a drive through car show that we watched from the front porch. Recommend for sure, enjoyed our visit to West Jefferson!

The perfect location to stay in West Jefferson

The loft is very clean and spacious. The location is ideal for visiting West Jefferson. Many restaurants and shops are within walking distance. The large open area for kitchen and living were one of our favorite features. Sitting out on the balcony and playing pool were also popular with our group. We enjoyed our stay and I’ll look forward to another visit.

Wedding stay

What a wonderful place. Stay there as a family for a family wedding. We were so surprised and pleased when we open the doors and saw the game room and then the beautiful kitchen open into the living room. The kitchen and bathrooms were totally Updated and stocked. Everything to make you feel totally at home in the very quaint town of West Jefferson. Walk right downtown or the farmers market. A real gem. You won't be disappointed !!

Flawless to Say the Least

We took a girls trip to West Jefferson with intent to relax. This loft was perfect, roomy, very clean and exceptionally decorated. We loved the swing in the bedroom, pool table and big bathrooms. Although we didn't cook, we loved the kitchen. We drank loads of coffee and enjoyed our leftovers from the local restaurants. The layout of the whole loft was roomy for our group of 7 adults. The location downtown was perfect for shopping and dining out all in walking distance. I highly recommend this property and the host was prompt in communicating our needs. We all can't wait to go back and stay here. West Jefferson is a very friendly mountain town.

Wonderful place to stay in West Jefferson

We stayed over the Christmas Holiday and so brought a few of our own decorations, but we were pleasantly surprised and delighted to see the property was already so tastefully and wonderfully decorated for Christmas! We were actually blown away with all the decorations! It is clear the owners spared no expense on this property and paid attention to details. The entire decor of the property is well done and furnished with care and thought. The furniture is top notch. The property has all modern applicances and bathroom and kitchen fixtures. We loved the pool table! There is a massive amount of kitchen counter space and cabinets. We also fell in love with the coffee center, again, another well thought out and nicely decorated area. The place was very clean and the property owners were extremely cordial and responsive. Overall a 10 out of 10.
