Family Gathering

We were in town for a family wedding. This property housed 15 adults comfortably. The beds were comfortable, the heating/air conditioning system worked well, the large deck with rocking chairs as well as tables and chairs were lovey for morning coffee and afternoon socializing. Beautiful views and close enough to town.

Beautiful area. House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Management needs to do a surprise inspection following cleaning service. Baseboard dusty with spiderwebs. Towels had to be washed due to sour musty smell. Had to vacuum dead (most of them)large black ants. Yellowjacket nest right at basket ball goal and carport area.

Mountain Vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is the right size for our adult family of 16, providing sufficient beds and comfortable seating areas. The house was likely built in the 1950’s and has no obvious upgrades. It is clean, although has had a musty smell on the first floor. Broken & unusable full length blinds to deck and unusable broken ironing board. Even with these issues, our group continues to rent (3years now) because of the eight bedrooms.

Last of Summer Tour

The property is clean and comfortable. The well-stocked kitchen and large dining tables set the stage for memorable gatherings. The tucked away location is quiet, safe and private.

A fabulous time in a fabulous place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the area of West Jefferson and there is no better place for gathering our family (kids and grandkids) for several days than the Grapevine Retreat! The Grapevine itself is spacious - with lots of room to spread out and enjoy one another's company - including a nice deck area. Our grandkids loved playing on the ping-pong table downstairs. And the really great thing is the proximity to West Jefferson and other local attractions such as the Old Barn Winery & Vineyards. The WJ Farmer's Market is a can't-miss affair. And the O's Thai Express is a hidden gem offering delicious (and healthy!) vegan options. We loved our stay. Can't wait to return :-)

Great place for the family to gather.

We were looking for something last minute for a funeral in the area. This place suited our needs perfectly. We were able to have most of the out of towner's stay together and had a perfect space to have a gathering after the funeral. The views were beautiful, the house was so nice, and it was well equiped with games and outdoor space.

Family wedding

We stayed at the Grapevine while in town for a family wedding, and also around Mother’s Day. The house is spacious, comfortable in every aspect, fully equipped, and came with easy check in/out processes. Our favorite parts were the view and the porch. We had a wonderful time with family and would absolutely stay here again!!!!
