The house is beautiful and the location was very convenient. Needs a heavier shower lining to prevent moisture on the floor. We removed the rugs in the kitchen and butlers pantry due to people slipping and tripping. The padding underneath kept bunching up causing the slippage.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for choosing Walnut Hill. We're so glad you enjoyed the home and found the location convenient for your stay. We also appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback about the shower curtain liner and the kitchen and butler's pantry rugs. Guest safety and comfort are very important to us, and we'll be looking into both of these concerns to see what improvements can be made. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

Everything about Walnut Hill Estate was delightful! The house was exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The spaces were perfect for my family of seven- cozy without sacrificing privacy. Being so close to West Jefferson downtown was a plus, also. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for us to gather as a family!

Us Floridians, a family of five, plus a couple grandparents, had a great time during a winter storm in January 2022! 10 inches of snow, in a beautiful (and luxurious) 1926 farmhouse, with more room than we needed. we enjoyed every minute of our stay!! We hope to stay again next blockbuster snowstorm as well :).
House is well stocked; appliances look to be brand new...we can't find fault with this property honestly! as a bonus, Jennifer was very nice at the management company too...allowing us late check out for our safety- due to 45-55 mph wind gusts blowing and drifting the snow around on the AM we were to leave. A++++
