Very cozy cottage, the structure reminded me of my great grandmothers house with all its charm. Furniture was very comfortable and beautiful views.Host was wonderful.
Hadn’t been up to Laurel Springs in a few years but finally made it up for a weekend fishing trip. Fish weren’t biting but we always have a good time at the Ramblers Rest!
The property lived up to the description and Bob was the perfect host! I love that it's a family home he's sharing with visitors to the area. It was convenient to the wedding we attended at the Summit on Cross Mountain. The parkway was nearby and W Jefferson was a 30 minutes drive away. It was cozy and have us a place to wind down before and after the festivities. I love that it's surrounded by Christmas tree farms a well.

It was very quiet and relaxing, something much needed for my wife and I and our family
Perfect place to rest your head while exploring the surrounding state parks. The host was very nice and have great recommendations for food and things to do.
This was our second stay at this cottage and we love it! Perfect for our family of 5. The hosts are excellent and make sure your comfortable. Close to the New River State Park, Outfitters, and not far from Jefferson/West Jefferson.
The property was as described; very clean and well appointed. Bob was very welcoming and responsive. It was perfect for our family stay. Highly recommend!
I stayed in the northern part of North Carolina for the month of August, and it was everything I could have hoped for.
The accommodations were excellent, and the surrounding area was great.
The hosts (Bob and Lynn) were very welcoming and friendly. In fact, when my stay was concluded, I felt as if I had made new friends.
I highly recommend the "Rambler's Rest" and intend to return for the month of August next year.
The host was the most caring and helpful I have ever had! The place was the perfect little spot for my family and I. If you are ever hearing to the mountains for a stay and need a small space for an amazing price, this is it!
Lovely cabin to enjoy a quiet, peaceful get-a-way. Comfy beds, couches, well equipped kitchen and bathroom shower. The owner is pleasant and does live in his house next door which is most convenient unless you want to be in the woods and not wish to visit with other people.
We really enjoyed our stay! It was exactly as shown online. Very clean cozy and the internet worked well! 2 parking spaces if you need them. Beautiful view from porch. Nice location for all the good hiking in the area. We will stay here again!

There really wasn't much of anything not to like. Reasonably priced, quiet, clean, very friendly owners who were prompt and helpful on the one occasion we need them for anything.
Me. Bob was the nicest host ever! He had atleast 7 bird feeders in a tree and the song birds were beautiful singing. The yard was a joy for the kids to get out and run and play. We will definitely visit him again!
The is the cutest cottage located in the NC mountains. Comfy and cozy, with a wonderful view. Bob was amazing and made us feel right at home. The cottage is located within a close driving range of several quaint NC towns, Boone, West Jefferson and Sparta. We had a great time exploring these little treasures and getting to meet and talk with the locals. Some awesome places to dine in these areas. Some of our favorites are The Local in Boone, Boondocks in West Jefferson, and The Pines in Sparta. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway then this is the place for you. We left feeling rested and energized ready to get back to normal life.
Many memories made at this site. From the suspended tree swing to the river under the bridge. Perfect location close to the New River, Boone and West Jefferson. The host was great and made us feel like family. The place was clean with PLENTY of linens/towels, updated shower and so many more nice gestures- extra ice, filtered water pitcher, night lights, 2 coffee makers, etc. Lets just say my 8 year old did not want to leave!
