Great house, great location! We have been staying in Maggie for years. This is one of top rentals. Love that it has a gas fireplace, rooms were clean, not dated, and comfortable. Many times the lower level can feel tight and enclosed … this home’s lower level and lower rooms were open and bright. Great view from the balcony, and well appointed kitchen. Will be back.

We LOVE this cabin and this location. We have stayed here 3 times and it is always wonderful. Cabin is well stocked with kitchen items and has alot of space and beautiful view. We stayed for two weeks and would definitely rent this cabin again if they don't keep raising the prices. We skipped last year because of price and rented elsewhere and returned this year when the price came back down.

Lovely home for a relaxing getaway

Home was perfect location for a relaxing getaway. Elevation was high enough for privacy and nice long range views, and we found the short drive up the mountain was very manageable. Home was nicely decorated with a well stocked kitchen. Living room was well furnished with clean and very comfortable seating (something we greatly appreciate whether we're watching tv or just enjoying the fireplace). Easy drive to the quaint town of Waynesville and not too far from the interstate when we wanted to go to AVL. Overall, a great stay!

The Best!

This cabin has a great layout and great location! It was clean and the check in was easy! The downstairs works so well for the kids. The porch was a perfect place for us to hangout. The open floor plan is comfortable and allows for everyone to be together whether watching tv or in the kitchen or working on puzzles. We have stayed here twice and would definitely book again!

Spacious and quiet place for families

This home was described accurately and was very well appointed. There was very little we found ourselves looking for during our stay. The proerty management team was very responsive. We left feedback for the owners that was very minimal and would recommend this properly for anyone looking to be tucked away from the bustle of the towns and a quiet place to relax. Plenty of towels, linens, and homey amenities. Hot tub was a huge plus with the cold weather during our stay. Drive up and down to the property was not terribly challenging. We had ladybug visitors that did not bother us, but as this is a mountain side property it’s expected to have little visitors from time to time.

Perfect for a family getaway! The house met our expectations! Especially, the location.

We mostly explored. The Blue Ridge Parkway was amazing. We chased waterfalls and enjoyed hiking. We got to enjoy both winter and spring with 70 degrees weather to snow flurries. The house was totally equipped with all our needs.

Great Fall getaway

We were blessed to stay right at the start of the Fall color season. We really enjoyed the stunning morning mountain view with a good cup of coffee on the large deck. This cabin was a convenient drive to Maggie Valley and Waynesville with never more than 10 minutes or so to restaurants or attractions, while still feelin secluded on the mountain. This is definitely on our list of places we want to stay again!

Beautiful Views

The house was gorgeous and well furnished, and the views are amazing. The road to the house was steep and narrow but overall pretty manageable. The only downside of our stay was the extensive amount of cleaning expected when we already paid a substantial cleaning fee (laundry, dishes, hauling trash to the dump or paying an additional fee).

So Comfy for a Group

We arrived to find the property just as we expected. Everything was ready and inviting. (Note that the bed in the room with bunk beds is a full and didn’t sleep 2 adults but we made it work.) We did have a short term problem with the refrigerator and we’re very impressed that the property manager, Melissa, took care of it very efficiently. Thank you! Our stay was so much fun!

Excellent location- Private but close to everything

Property was very clean and plenty of space and amenities. all in good working order. This was our second time staying at this cabin because we .liked it so much the first time., which we had never done before. The only thing that had changed was that they got rid of Direct TV in favor of streaming and I did not like not having local news and weather channels, but a minor issue as we did not spend a lot of time watching TV. Great location to most highways to get to most of the things we wanted to do which were all in reasonable proximity to the cabin. Would stay here again except the price has gone up significantly making it cost-prohibitive for our small group. Would be good cabin for more family to share.

Even better than the listing & pictures!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this home and would strongly recommend the property. First, it was very CLEAN, which is a must for us. The property is much nicer than the pictures and we felt immediately at home. The hot tub worked perfectly, and the porch was large, in great shape, and had lots of seating.. The gas grill and games (ping pong and foosball) were fun! We used the fire pit and enjoyed sledding down the hill when it snowed the first day. Location is very good. Easy access to downtown Waynesville and Maggie Valley, and also made day trips to Asheville, Sylva, Dillsboro, Cherokee, Smoky Mountain National Park, Max Patch, and Blue Ridge Parkway. All of these places in less than a week proves the location is very strong. Cabin had everything we needed and was so comfortable. Great wifi and streaming tv offerings. Fire wood provided for the fire pit for an extra fee. Peaceful and private. View was also good considering how close you are to downtown, shopping, grocery stores, etc. Would definitely recommend and return again. Enjoy!
