I can’t speak highly enough of this experience. The hosts attention to detail alone made it a wonderful stay. She provided everything you could possibly need! All you really need to bring Is your toothbrush and clothes! The home is very conveniently located. The view was beautiful as well. You will not be disappointed in the 5 star treatment from Kelly and her family!
This was our second time staying here and had a great experience both times. Most recently hosted family in town for a wedding and received multiple compliments on the house. Clean, accommodating, and walking distance to the heart of West Jefferson. We will stay here again!
Excellent location & super easy to work with owner. We loved the decor, comfort touches, everything! It was so great to be able to walk to pubs & restaurants!
We always go to the Stomp and Brew Festival each year. Wanted to stay somewhere that the family could be together. Very nice cabin and close to town that we could walk. Had a great time.
We had a great time with family and rented both townhomes. They were beautiful, clean, and very well stocked! Also, Kelly was an awesome host with excellent communications!! Great trip to WJ.
Our large family stayed in both sides of the cabin for a long weekend. The cabin was exactly as described and very clean on check in. The bedrooms worked out perfectly for each couple and our children loved the arcade games on the lower level which was great for them to stay in. Conveniently located for a walk to the park or downtown to shop/eat in West Jefferson.Kelly was very accommodating with a last-minute request and communicated throughout our stay. We look forward to staying here again!
Rented this place for a family Thanksgiving. It’s two townhouse style cabins under one roof. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and room to gather. It’s walking distance to the park and downtown West Jefferson. Great for a large family but still has privacy.
We enjoyed our weekend stay with a family of 10 in these awesome townhouses. We walked across the street to the park & playgrounds, enjoyed time on the porches and the kids loved the basement with all of the games. The townhouses were nicely decorated and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and the popcorn and smores were a nice touch. We plan to be back!
Amazing stay in a beautiful cabin! Excellent location!
My family rented both sides of this duplex for Labor Day Weekend and it was absolutely perfect. The cabin was extremely clean, the beds were comfortable and it was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The location was right down the road within walking distance from downtown West Jefferson, which offers great little restaurants, bars, and shops. Also a great park for the kids was within walking distance. We appreciated the kid-friendly plates/cups, a pack-n-play and high hair so we didn’t have to bring all of that. Kelly was wonderful and very responsive!!! We will definitely be back!
My family and I stayed at the Drowsy Owl so we could have a winter get together in the mountains. We stayed in both sides of the cabin. It was great having all the room to spread out across both sides, but also good to have areas where we could spend family time together too. The cabin was super clean upon arrival and the check in process is really easy. Kelly is a great host and super quick in her response time. Everyone loved the beds as the mattresses were very comfortable.The two arcade games were a hit with the young ones and us older folks too. Check out process is a breeze. We look forward to coming back and staying here again soon.
Nice accommodations, kitchen ware, bedrooms, bathrooms. Good location to so many things including restaurants. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a really nice place to stay.
Ideally situated to enjoy the charm of the main street in West Jefferson. Well appointed kitchen, supremely comfortable beds and luxury linens. We will definitely be back.
The Garnet and Ruby properties worked great for our friend group. By renting both sides we had 6 ladies, 6 BR and 6 baths. Perfect. West Jefferson is a lovely town. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Property was perfect accomodations for our group of 10 adults. Plenty of sleeping space for everyone and great porches to sit and relax. Property was within walking distance to downtown as long as you don't mind a slight uphill walk on your return journey. All bath and bed lines were provided by host, as well as all other neccessary household items. I would definetly stay at this property again if I return to West Jefferson!
