Little Gem in Jefferson
Thank you for a great experience. We stayed here with our toddler and we were very pleased with the accommodations this little house provided. The kitchen was clean and fully stocked with anything you’d need to prepare a meal, plenty of room to eat at the table as a family and the beds were comfortable with extra blankets if needed. Thank you, we would love to stay again on our next visit!

Hometown
Very comfortable. Owners are to one side and Vincent the other. Kinda a busy road for residential, but it is a connector road. Easy walk to and or around town. Good local Grinds at the Junkyard Cafe. In close proximity to the Lucky Pig in Ogden. Have stayed there twice and have booked a week in 2023. Aloha. Dave

Perfect location within an 7 minute walk to my parents’ house. We even listened to the end of the Homecoming game from the upstairs balcony! Wonderful house and the owner was very good with communicating with me. We’ll be back!

What a great place!
We couldn't have asked for a friendlier community or better host to end our 2020 State-Cation. The Little Green House fit the needs of our family of 4 perfectly! Check-in and check-out were a breeze. Ashley was quick to respond to any questions I had, whether it was about the house or the community. She was very easy to work with and provided us with recommendations of places to eat and things to do in the area. The house was quaint, clean, and beautifully decorated. The upstairs was a perfect area for our two teenagers, giving them each their own bed and their own space to hang out in. There was ample kitchenware for a multiple day stay. The bath and laundry areas were also well stocked. Our stay in Jefferson was pleasant and enjoyable because of our host Ashley, a kind gentlemen at the golf course who gave us dining recommendations, and the owner of the Chinese restaurant downtown, who chatted with us while we were picking up dinner one night. I would highly recommend The Little Green House to anyone who is planning to stay in Jefferson!

Cozy home away from home
We had a short but very nice stay at the Little Greene House in Jefferson. The house is larger in living area than the pictures would suggest, and was very clean and well-kept. It provided for a great home away from home while we were in the area for an event and visiting our daughter and her family. The house was easy to locate and there is room in the driveway for two full-size vehicles, and there is street parking as well. We only needed it for one night, but wouldn't hesitate to stay again for a longer period of time. Thanks for being a great host!

For a weekend retreat for three ladies, this sweet tiny place was spacious and comfortable. It was immaculately clean and well appointed and we found plenty of places to shop on Saturday. I would definitely recommend this home for a stay.

Pleasantly surprised with the size and overall amenities available.
This totally renovated property was well worth the money...our family had a very comfortable, enjoyable 3 night stay. The kitchen, bathroom and even laundry room are fully stocked...nothing overlooked. Tasteful decor throughout. Amenities over and above included iced mugs in the freezer; even a DVD player and a variety of DVDs to keep the children entertained. The only suggestion would be the addition of central air. The house is located in town and close to stores and restaurants, some even within walking distance. We will definitely book our stay at this home again when visiting Jefferson.
