Gorgeous cabin, gorgeous location.

We had the pleasure to spend a month at this beautiful cabin. It was very comfortable and is located in a heavily wooded, gated mountain community. Temps were typically 5 to 8 degrees cooler than Maggie Valley- a nice break from summer heat! The kitchen was awesome for those who like to cook. Outdoor gas grill was basically brand new. Upper and lower deck porches provide great views of the mountains. Close to Asheville, Waynesville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The host was very friendly and responded quickly to inquiries. There are two neighbors nearby, but both were quiet and also very friendly. We hope to return next year!

The Mountain Top

What a wonderful week we had on the mountain top!! The house was beautiful; the kitchen well stocked with pots, pans and dishes; and the views were breathtaking. We had lots of laughs, and many great memories were made inside those four walls. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Third time here!

Third time renting this property as it does not disappoint. Beautiful cabin with spectacular views and conveniently located. Easy drive to many locations including the Smoky Mountain Nat’l Park and Asheville. The charming town of Waynesville is only 10 to 15 mins away. After a day out exploring, this cabin with mountain theme decor is a pleasure to come back to - comfortably furnished, beautiful stone fireplace, well-stocked kitchen made for cooking, and porches with long range mountain views…. loved spending time on the swing in the mornings and evenings. Gated community has paved roads though be aware that you are near the top of the mountain so fog or inclement weather can make driving a little trickier, especially after dark. Just plan accordingly….worth it for the views!

Beautiful home

Evergreen Escape was everything as presented. The home is beautifully decorated and the moment you walk in you feel a warm cozy feeling of home. The king size bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. My husband and I were the only ones there so we only used the main floor. The fall leaves put on a spectacular show for us. The owner of the home was very responsive and we would highly recommend this beautiful property for a short or extended stay.

Beautiful getaway

Property was amazing ! Views from porch were so peaceful. House was well stocked and cleaned. Property owners were responsive to any questions. Loved the mountain location. Great paved roads, steep, but paved and easy for a mini-van. Loved the garage to load/unload. Thanks for sharing your home!

About the host

Hosted by The Duke Family

My family and extended family have always enjoyed escaping from the Florida heat to the mountains of North Carolina. We have enjoyed the Smoky Mtn Retreat for over 11 years and have fun skiing and tubing in the winter in Maggie Valley, shopping in Waynesville, visiting the Biltmore house, restaurants in Asheville, and enjoying the Blue Ridge parkway in the summer. This property is easily accessible from the Asheville Airport (~30min. drive). We like the privacy of the gated community that clears the roads in the winter and the ease of driving on a paved and maintained road all the way to high elevation of the cabin.

Why they chose this property

This property was specifically chosen due to its beautiful long range views and elevation within the Smoky Mountains. We love the privacy and quietness of this specific lot within the community.
