This was our 2nd stay here and like before, we had a wonderful weekend! It's a beautiful and peaceful place. We enjoyed a fire on the covered patio each night. The bed was clean and comfy, the bathroom with heater is awesome! I always cook breakfast (at least), and the kitchen is very well stocked and items are clean. Highly recommend this place.

To Start, This Was One of Our Favorite Vacation Rentals to Date!! From the First Contact with the Owners, to the Day We Checked Out, Everything Was Wonderful and Smooth!! Our Family Truly Enjoyed Everything This Cabin Had to Offer as Well as the Area/Location Around It. One of My Favorite Parts of Our Stay This Year was the Mountain and River Views as Well as the Sounds of Nature. Thank You So Much for Such a Wonderful Place to Spend 7 Days of Vacation in the Mountains. It Was Truly a Welcoming Home…. We Didn’t Want to Leave!! We’d Love to Stay Again Sometime!!

Fantastic Restful Stay

This is always such a magical and restful place to stay. It has all the basic amenities you need, and once we settle in on the covered porch and look out on the majestic vista before us, a sense of peace settles in that remains for the entire stay. Such restful sleep and good times - we can't wait to visit again!

Beautiful Property

We enjoyed our stay on this beautiful property. The owners were so helpful and made our stay very pleasant by telling us about area parks where we could hike and other things in the area to take advantage of. We absolutely loved the porch and the fireplace.

Wonderful, restful stay

This cabin is always a wonderful place to stay - such a restful, peaceful place. Between the mountain vista and the babbling creek, the scenery can't be beat, and the cabin itself is so cozy and feels like home. If you're looking to get away and unwind, this is the place to do it. Absolutely enchanting - thank you so much for everything!

A great getaway!

This is our 4th time at this cabin and we enjoy it every time. The stillness, the trickling of the river and the birds flitting by the feeders just makes it such a nice place to be. The kitchen is very well equipped. The proximity to downtown West Jefferson and the state park, and a stop at Ingles makes it location most desirable. Would highly recommend.

Perfect Little Getaway!

Owl's Nest is the perfect little getaway if you are looking for some quiet time with the family. The river that runs in front of the cabin is gorgeous! The property owners are extremely helpful and offered great advice on things to do near by. We had snow during our stay and sitting in the kitchen of the cozy cabin while watching the snow really topped off a great weekend. We hope to be back in the spring or summer!

Stunning Property

We absolutely loved Owl’s Nest. The cabin was beautifully decorated and cozy. The outdoor fireplace and the stunning views of mountains and the river made our stay unforgettable. Our girls loved the hammock, exploring all the outdoors, and watching the deer walk through the woods each evening. My husband said this was his favorite cabin we have ever stayed in. Can’t wait to return.

Serenity

The cabin is wonderful. We loved the porch with the fireplace. We spent mostly all our time sitting in front of the fire, relaxing, talking and listening to the river and the birds. The provided baby gates for the porch is a great touch to help keep our fur baby on the porch. The cabin is in an absolutely peaceful location. We hope to return again.

Charming and Relaxing

Our family usually rents a few cabins a year to unwind over a long weekend. This cabin has been our favorite rental in years. Home is well appointed, clean, comfortable beds, strong wifi. The property is breathtaking and gave our young son and frenchies plenty of space to roam. The next door neighbors were so welcoming and felt like old friends. The porch… we lived on the porch! It rained off and on during our stay but being able to enjoy the views during a storm or two was just lovely. Have already booked a return trip!

Perfect place

This is our second stay here. It surely won't be our last. This is the most quiet, peaceful place we have ever stayed. My wife and I love waking up to bird song and river sounds instead of traffic noises. Everything you need is provided and we love the outdoor fireplace. I love being able to walk out and fish and have already spent hours in the river. We have land close by but until we can build this will be our home away from home.

Great stay

The property was just what we needed for a short stay before Christmas. The home was a perfect cozy size for my 2 sons, husband, and large dog. The river next to the house is beautiful and my sons were able to fish. We went into West Jefferson and enjoy a day in town. The highlights of the property are the fireplace, scenery and coziness of the home. You will have everything you need. It felt like visiting your grandmother’s home (and I mean that as a complete compliment). You immediately feel at home. I would love to come back in the fall to see the beautiful trees covered in leaves. Also, communication with the host was perfect. She was quick to respond and always gave us what we needed. She even stopped by while we were outside to provide recommendations. You won’t be disappointed if you book this home!
