Thanksgiving is just around the corner which means the Holidays are already starting.

From all of us here in the historic town of Jefferson, we wish you and yours a wonderful Holiday Season however you choose to celebrate!

If you are looking for a little "get away", we invite you to come share a step back in time and experience an old fashion Christmas with us...

drink hot chocolate on the porch of a cozy bed and breakfast, eat homemade fudge and ice cream, stroll our decked out streets, visit the "Enchanted Forest" and enjoy the holiday lights, take a trolley tour or jump right in and experience one of the many Special Events happening this month.

Wishes for Peace, Prosperity, Laughter and Love to all in the

New Year!
