The house was amazing and large enough that everyone could be apart but also together if that makes sense. The house was wonderful and the pictures are very accurate. We came to see fall foliage and it did not disappoint

Located close to hiking, canoeing, downtown West Jefferson and just a short trip to Boone, The Forge sits in the perfect spot. Thanks for an awesome stay!

This is in a beautiful neighborhood with large lots (so it felt very private)! The beds were super comfortable (most important to me, Lol!), the kitchen was truly a fully stocked kitchen! It has every single spice you could need. We loved the Keurig coffee maker, and they do have hair dryers in the bathrooms. The front porch glider was so nice and comfortable. We enjoyed hiking up and down the streets in between rains when we couldn't go to favorite hiking destinations (Grayson Highlands, Doughton Park,etc).
