Experience North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains from a cozy cabin rental in West Jefferson.
Cabin campers can bask in West Jefferson’s picturesque Blue Ridge Mountain scenery from the comfort of a porch. Vacation rentals in the area offer easy access to outdoor attractions like the 20 miles of trails in Stone Mountain State Park. Not only can campers experience beautiful waterfalls and terrific rock climbing, but the 14,000-acre park is also great for horseback riding and trout fishing. As snow starts to fall in winter, chalets with heating, hot tubs, and wood-burning stoves offer a cozy mountain experience. For fall and spring campers, visit Mount Jefferson State Natural Area to spot the eastern tiger swallowtail—the state butterfly. The state park also hosts an annual downhill skateboarding race for thrillseekers. Rent a nearby cabin with a kitchenette and private deck to see the changing leaves and blooming flowers that mark each season. Then, take a trip into history and visit the Brinegar Cabin in the Doughton Recreation Area for a glimpse of early mountain life before modern conveniences.
