Grapevine Retreat

Nice family weekend get away!

Kids, Grandkids, Grandparents all had plenty of space together and room to get quiet time! Not for those wanting "luxury", but perfect for us. It was like visiting Grandma and Papa in the 70's with updates. Beautiful mountain pasture views. Convenient to downtown West Jefferson and grocery store. Kayaking close by also. All it's missing is a river view!

Wonderful wonderful!

Other than the hurricane, our stay was wonderful. House very spacious and accommodating to our large group.
Other than frustrating encounters with the smart appliances that are smarter than me, all well. Did have to request additional pots/pans as we had very few of them to cook for our family. We did receive them on our second day there.
Property well maintained and furnished!

Another great vacation at Grapevine!

Our family just had another wonderful stay at Grapevine Retreat! It felt like our home away from home when we returned after such a great vacation last year. The large spaces with plenty of seating, comfortable beds, and well-stocked kitchen made it work well for our family of 3 generations. The double ovens and two refrigerators are so helpful. We love the large deck and carport/driveway for the kids (and adults!) to play, and appreciate the closet filled with balls, spike ball, corn hole, etc, and the ping pong table downstairs! The large supply of games, puzzles, and books is a nice addition. We enjoyed the new landscaping, and find the rolling hills and the pastoral setting so peaceful, yet it was great to be less than a mile from a large grocery store! We visited the town of West Jefferson and 2 great parks nearby, but this property provided a great vacation for our family in itself. The Grapevine home truly is a retreat and we hope to return!

Great place!

Great House for Groups of Friends

This house is an incredible place to meet up with a large group, the bedrooms were all accommodating and very clean, plus the large common areas allow you to enjoy meals with friends. The house is very kid-friendly.

Spacious Mountain Home

Stayed 2 days ending March 2024

My large group enjoyed our weekend at The Grapevine Retreat. There was more than enough room for everyone to have their own space or come together. We had to go out to get things like hand soap and the trash policy was a little difficult with the large group, but thankfully there was a store nearby. We did have an incident of someone not a part of our group coming onto the property the last night so I would recommend making sure all doors are locked when in the house. Otherwise, we had a great time and would book again.

Beautiful Views in.a Family-Friendly Country Neighborhood

Stayed 10 days ending October 2023

As soon as we checked in, we knew we were in good hands. Just a few issues were noted, and remedied the same evening by a friendly handyman. The bottom floor Ping Pong Table, board games, and book selection kept the kids happy. There was a high chair for any extra little visitors. Tons of cabinet space, a lot of kitchen supplies, double ovens, and 2 refrigerators kept the cooks happy! There is one bathtub in the common bathtub upstairs, which was great to have with kiddos. The colorful trees and mountain views were gorgeous! Gas fireplaces on both floors were a hit, too. Also, King sized beds in all rooms except the twin bedrooms were lovely!
There were a couple relevant downfalls we wish we knew about beforehand. There is no trash pickup - you must bring your own trash to the dump site about 8 minutes away (not a deal-breaker for us, but would've been nice to know). Also, only a couple rooms had dressers. When staying at a place, I love to unpack amd make myself at home. There were plenty of luggage racks, but dressers or drawers in each room would be great!
Thank you for everything!

Great family friendly vacation rental!

This house was perfect for our extended family trip. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils. The spaces were large enough for us to gather together but also offered space for people to do different things downstairs, on the huge deck, outside, etc. The location is so convenient but the setting makes it seem like you have gotten away. We want to book this place for 2024!

Highly Recommended

Overall very accommodating. PLENTY of space for the 7 of us. Everything we needed was available. Please note the underdeck driveway had a substantial oil spill which unfortunately a few of us stepped in.

Awesome for a weekend gathering

Matthew V. from Durham, NC, US
Stayed 4 days ending October 2023

This property is awesome for any large gathering of folks. We were part of a group of songwriters looking to spend a weekend of songwriting and sharing music. Having a total of 6 bedrooms with queen or king beds and 2 rooms with twin beds was perfect to accommodate all 10 of us and a dog. The huge deck was perfect for gathering and jam sessions (as was the living/dining area on the main floor and the great room on the ground floor) and plenty of parking for all. We truly loved our stay and we will be coming back for sure!

Great place with lots of room!

My family, all 14 of us stayed here and it was great! Lots of space indoors and out, the kitchen had brand new appliances that were awesome, although the kitchen itself could use updating, but lots of cookware, bakeware, dishes and utensils. We had a wonderful stay at Christmas!

Nice and Large Rental

Lisa R. from Emerald Isle, North Carolina
Stayed 6 days ending January 2024

Our large family has been coming to the mountains the week between Christmas and New Year’s for 29 years. This house was great for our family. Lots of space, good beds and a well-stocked kitchen were definitely a huge plus. Being close to everything was also very nice!

Incredble house. Excellent Location. Wonderful layout.

James S. from Durham, NC
Stayed 3 days ending February 2024

We loved this house. it has 2 areas for hanging out as well as bedrooms for days. The beds were comfortable and the showers were amply hot. The price was also excellent! Highly recommend.

The only complaint we had was the grime on the floor. Walking around in socks resulted in the bottoms turning black.

Finally, the management company was professional, kind and a real person. It was extremely easy to get in contact with them.

This was a great house for our large, multi-generational family. We had plenty of room to spread out while enjoying games, outdoor activities and ping-pong tournaments. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with every appliance we could need, as well as enough dishes to supply our entire family. The property mgmt co was very prompt in answering any questions we had. We would definitely return here for another stay!

Very nice except the pots and pans were not as clean as I’ve experienced in other similar locations.

Best family vacation ever

Marilyn T. from Burlington, NC
Stayed 3 days ending May 2023

I've been renting a place for our expanding family every year since 2009. Grapevine Retreat was acclaimed by all as the best place yet. It's located in a beautiful rural setting, yet only minutes from a supermarket and a town and a mountain to climb. We stayed for three nights, and as we stood around our cars waiting to leave on the fourth morning, we all felt genuine regret that we had to leave--and that hasn't always happened on our annual trips. The house is wonderfully spacious and inviting; though it's been fairly thoroughly renovated, its fifty years of history gives it a special feeling of warmth and comfort that we've found lacking in newer homes. This is a home, and while we there it felt as if it were OUR home. We plan to return next year.

Christmas for 10!

We had a great time at Grapevine!
The kitchen was better stocked than most rentals. We were able to ok for Christmas, which is saying a lot!
The drive in to DT Boone is easy. And the grocery store is less than 5 minutes away. I’m overall very happy with our stay.

Wonderful vacay for large families!

From the moment we drove up, we could tell this lovely property would exceed our expectations from the profile and pictures that we were already excited about! The easy access from the highway, the close proximity to a good grocery store, and the quaint downtown of West Jefferson, as well as the peaceful pastoral setting, made our arrival a very positive experience. The house and property itself, however, provided our family with a very special vacation this year! The house was very clean on arrival, and a perfect balance of homey atmosphere with modern conveniences for a large family. There is not only plenty of space for sleeping, but also plenty of bathrooms, separate and large living areas with plenty of seating, and a well-stocked kitchen for a crowd, with ample eating areas upstairs, downstairs, and outside on the large deck. Hard to find all of the above in one house! Favorite extras are the king-sized beds, large sofas, 2 refrigerators and 2 ovens, the oversized bean bags, the well-supplied game cabinet, lots of books and DVD’s, sports closet, and ping pong table, which helped make the rainy days more fun for the kids. We enjoyed rocking on the deck, walks in the neighborhood, and soccer, basketball, and corn hole in the driveway/yard. Ashe County Park nearby was an added plus with disc golf, pickle ball, play grounds and a greenway. We were all sad to leave but grateful for this week in this sweet home away from home, and all voted to come back next year! A big thank you to the hosts, and the rental agency, for all the attention to detail that made Grapevine Retreat such an excellent place to stay.

Awesome for a weekend gathering

Stayed 3 days ending April 2023

We were part of a group of singer/songwriters who came to town for a writing workshop over the weekend. There were 11 of us total with some couples and some singles. The house had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, so all of us could stay in comfort. The recreation area in the basement was awesome for gathering as was the huge deck over the carport. We will definitely be coming back!

Our family had a wonderful time during our stay at the Grapevine Retreat. The house is set up great for a multi-family reunion - plenty of comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms and lots of space for enjoying family time together. The walk up the road to the top of the hill is very nice and great exercise for the group.

Great for our big group

Plenty of space for our big group of 4 families. Only annoying thing was that they only allow two trashbags of trash to be left behind, and we had a lot more than that by the end of the 3 day stay.

Family Reunion

Joshua B. from Blacksburg, Virginia
Stayed 3 days ending June 2023

A good experience with a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of space, and a beautiful deck. We did note that the requirement to have only 2 bags of trash left behind makes Sunday departures challenging, but otherwise it was a great experience in a beautiful place. For playing in the river, we recommend Elk Shoals which is nearby. Our kids all had fun on this little sandy bend.

Creeper Trail & River Tubing Adventure

A group of friends and families meet for a few days to take a bike ride on the Creeper Trail. We also spent a day floating down the New River on tubs. In the mornings, we enjoyed having coffee while siting on the deck and looking out at the view. It was a great trip and I would love to do it again.

Great Long Weekend

From the moment we arrived our group felt at home in the Grapevine retreat. The hosts have thought of everything- a comfortable family room with beautiful views, a large deck for relaxing outdoors, a well appointed kitchen, and comfortable bedrooms with clean updated baths. We didn’t have to do anything but relax and enjoy!
