5 star hospitality
This rental was so cute!!! Everything was exactly as described. It was clean and had easy access to everything you might want to do in Jefferson or the surrounding areas. I could not believe the amount of supplies the owners had stocked! I’ve never had a fridge full of milk, eggs, sodas, teas and frozen goodies just waiting for us. They also had snacks and a blueberry loaf too:-) It was very much appreciated, cause we had spent all day in Linden working in the heat trying to rehab an old cabin on my sister’s land. We were wiped out coming in and Bessie’s Landing was truly a blessing and cool refuge for us. The front porch was so inviting, and the big screen TV was perfect for movie nights. The beds were comfy enough…I think the master bed could use a mattress topper, but other than that, I think we were all able to get some rest. All in all, We had a great time exploring the area and learning more about Jefferson and plan on coming back for sure! Thank you Elaine for your hospitality!!

My mom and I have stayed here 2 times now. We just love everything about Bessie's Landing! Elaine goes above and beyond as the host. The place is super clean, lovely, cozy, charming, and so much more! There are yummy things in the refrigerator and freezer, as well as extra snacks provided. We love to sit on the porch and listen to the water feature with a Koi pond. It is so inviting! We look forward to returning soon!

Beautiful, Relaxing, Peaceful!
We enjoyed out visit immensely! We relaxed sitting on the front porch in such a peaceful setting. The cottage was cozy and wonderfully stocked with snacks, drinks and healthy breakfast choices. We felt very welcome and comfortable. Great dining and shopping in the Jefferson area which is all very close with very pleasant atmosphere.
