It's Leaf-Peeper season in the high country!


Post Hurricane Helene, West Jefferson is dried out and reopened, humming with activity in the crisp fall air. Some services are spotty and there is still much to do but we are welcoming visitors to the gorgeous fall color display.

After traveling for 4 years, we settled in the charming town of West Jefferson, North Carolina, in an established neighborhood, a 5 minute walk to downtown shops, cafes and art galleries. We were thrilled our home included an artist's studio atop the garage, just behind our home, but decided we would prefer to use the studio for friends and family; close enough for socializing but far enough for everyone to have their own space. In between family and friends we are opening our guest studio, Vogelsang (German for birdsong) Cottage, to you, and whether you are a couple or solo traveler, we are committed to making you as comfortable as family.

There is ample off street parking, 15 stair steps to the studio and a small deck for enjoying views of Little and Big Phoenix Mountains. Inside is a queen bed with soft sheets, plenty of pillows (you can never have too many pillows), comforter and extra blankets for those cool nights in the mountains. The bath has a shower, toilet, small sink, towels and ample hooks. A dorm frig, microwave, coffee maker and coffee, is in the nook. No kitchen is available but, honestly, who wants to cook when you have amazing restaurants 5 minutes away?

If you or your companion are super tall, you may find the 6'9" ceilings confining. The entry door is 5'8" and everyone instinctively ducks, even if they are only 5'2". But once inside, you will find everything you need for a cozy, comfortable stay. Wi-fi, TV, air conditioning, heat, peace and quiet!

When you are ready to explore downtown, a quick walk, or drive, through the Town park, past basketball, pickle ball and tennis courts, playground, the Ashe County Library, to all the activity and excitement of shops, cafes and galleries. Grab a coffee and sweet at Hatchet Coffee, lunch at an English Tea Room, a movie, or beer in the evening at one of two craft breweries. The trolley to the Old Barn Winery departs and returns downtown on the weekends on a regular schedule. Hop on and leave the driving to them. You can even choose your Christmas Tree while there.

If you are seeking a quiet, restful stay in a cozy cottage overlooking beautiful, landscaped grounds, stay with us. We'll be waiting for you, just like family!

Wonderful, very convenient
I came for my Uncle's Celebration of Life Ceremony, so I was by myself. This was a perfect place. Very easy to find and I could walk to the main street quite easily. Al and Devon provided very helpful information at the apartment. Apartment was as described and parking was easy.

This is a great place for a couple to explore downtown West Jefferson. The cottage was immaculate and so cute. The owners are wonderful and we had the pleasure of meeting them. They went above and beyond to make our stay special.
