Mount Jefferson State Natural Area is a 1,188-acre North Carolina state park in Ashe County, North Carolina in the United States. Located near Jefferson, North Carolina, it includes the peak of Mount Jefferson, named for Thomas Jefferson and his father Peter, who owned land nearby and surveyed the North Carolina-Virginia border in 1749. In 1974, Mount Jefferson State Natural Area was designated as a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service.

Located in Ashe County 25 miles northeast of Boone, Mount Jefferson State Natural Area surrounds a natural landmark that offers vistas as far as Tennessee from its overlooks and Luther Rock. The mountain, first spotted from the Blue Ridge Parkway, rises abruptly from the surrounding landscape. Over 700 plants call the park home, including the Dutchman’s pipevine, which is visited by the beautiful swallowtail butterfly and its distinct black-and-orange-spiked caterpillar. The park’s winding road to the summit hosts an annual downhill skateboarding event.

We are The Greenwoods: Kevin, Briggs & Lawson. While we are your hosts and your haven away from home is our home, we are happy to have as much or as little interaction with you as you’d like. We are delighted to provide you with ideas for outings, answer questions about the area, even shop for your groceries before you arrive, or chat with you around a bonfire, but if you prefer solitude it’s not necessary to interact with us at all during your stay. Of course, we are always available via phone, text or email.

Haven at Greenwood Glen is a dream come true for our family. We have long dreamt and casually talked about living in the North Carolina mountains, but it always seemed like something in the future: after our nest was empty, after retirement, after grandkids — just AFTER.  In the fall of 2021, our after became NOW.  We are indescribably excited to host you on our lovely Blue Ridge Parkway property.
