Grill out on the charcoal grill just steps from the kitchen, then gather around the firepit under a sky full of stars—perfect for s’mores and unforgettable evenings.

Wildlife & Surroundings

True to its name, elk are frequent visitors to the area. You may spot them grazing in the meadow or wandering nearby—an incredible experience right from the property. Please remember to observe wildlife from a safe distance.

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. The home is beautiful, and all bathrooms have been wonderfully remodeled since our last visit. The road up is still not for the faint of heart, but once there....the views compensate for it. I set the clock each day just to see the sunrise from the deck I miss the hummingbird feeders that used to be on the deck. We hit the fall foliage perfectly. Owners were responsive and easy to deal with.

Awesome stay!

we had a fantastic time. The house was absolutely spotless and very well appointed. We enjoyed the quiet location and huge decks with plenty of furniture. Never had a chance to use the grill or fire pit as we ran out of time on our short 2 night stay. A top notch host, rental and experience. We would absolutely stay again. Be sure to have 4 wheel drive, or at least a good front wheel drive suv or crossover as stated. Thank You from the Bydal family..

The house was the prettiest house we have stayed in. We have been going to the mountains for 45 years and it was the best! You really do need 4 wheel drive like you advertised. Just wanted you to know the dishwasher leaks on the right hand side bottom. Also the bottom deck needs a good cleaning. These things didn’t bother us, we had a blast. You supplied everything we could possibly need. Thanks for a good time.

Elks Crossing at Whiskey Ridge had beautiful views. During our stay we experienced a rainbow three different days. We also had the experience of seeing a set of 3 elk visiting the property. I was very concerned about the transition process of the house, Julia said it would be seamless and true to her word it was. The house had amazing amenities, everything you needed was there. Enjoyed our time at Elks Crossing.

Fabulous cabin

We loved how roomy the cabin was for our group of 11. Lots of games to play if you just want to hang out at “home” but close enough to towns to enjoy all they have to offer and stay close. Only about 1 1/2 hours to Gatlinburg, TN and you have a very scenic route to get there. The road up is long but even after rain it was accessible. Absolutely loved the fire pit grill, will be purchasing one for our home!! Would definitely consider staying there again if we have a large group going again.

Central to many activities, restaurants, breweries, dollywood, hiking, etc.. The access to the ATV trails from the house was also great and fun to ride/hike those trails.

Hummingbird Heaven

We had an amazing time at the well appointed and very comfy Elks lodge. The layout was terrific, views stunning, kitchen and home had everything we needed and more. Elk were a plenty as well as chipmunks, ground hogs, and oh my my so many hummingbirds. Its a long road up the mountain, super bumpy at the start, I personally wouldn’t recommend driving up in a low vehicle and be careful at night. Certainly worth every bump, twist and turn! Maggie Valley and surrounding areas are amazing and you can do everything within an hour’s drive.

Could not be happier with our stay at Elk's Crossing at Whiskey Ridge

I am a person that never takes the time to do reviews but for this vacation rental I must. Our family of 5 just returned from our stay last night. This lodge has everything you could ask for and more. The owners are so very helpful and accommodating. The lodge is in a perfect location to have your own privacy. We brought our side by side to ride the many trails around the lodge. The lodge itself is absolutely gorgeous and well maintained. You can tell the owners really care about wanting to make your stay special. The cleanliness, the decor, and the amenities are so much more than we anticipated. Thank you Josh and Julia for a family vacation we will cherish forever.

All the comforts of home

We had an amazing family vacation! We have stayed in several homes in various locations and must say this is the most well stocked home we’ve stayed in! The beds were very comfortable, the home was extremely clean, and the decorations were on point! The extra touches of providing hand soaps, toiletries, spices, kitchen needs, extra blankets, dog treats, etc. were an added bonus that makes this house stand out above the rest. We also really enjoyed the pool table and the amazing sunrises. Our first time up the mountain was a little scary as it was during a torrential downpour. After coming and going a few days you get use to it… just make sure you have 4 wheel drive on and ensure you have what you need when you leave/return. We wanted the full mountain experience and this house doesn’t disappoint. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Elk's Crossing, what a place!

The house was so well equipped and set up. No corners cut and everything you could ever need for a vacation home. Updated appliances, clean, spacious, well maintained, you could see maintenance was ongoing and the owner of the property did not cut any corners. Roads well maintained, outdoor grill, fire pit, spacious outdoor balcony seating, expensive qualitly pool table and que sticks. Linens were so fresh and clean, home had dehumidifier which was awesome drying things indoor. The view was spectacular and home was so pet friendly, when we checked in you would have never known pets were allowed it was so clean. There were some wonderful touches, such as treats for dogs with doggy bags and spare leashes, toels for cleaning wet pooches after walks, and bowls incase you forgot your own, some starter supplies were there for laundry and kitchen, couldnt be better. House directory had great information available and Maggy Valley was perfectly situated for all the surrounding attractions and destinations. Our 4th trip to Blue Ridge and by far best home to stay.

Drive is worth it

This place is fully stocked with anything you could think of! Master bed is the most comfortable I've ever been on! It was wonderful to feel so well taken care of. It did rain most of our trip so the views were not exactly what we were wanting, but luckily we ended up with one night and one morning of absolutely gorgeous views. The drive up- okay- this is where it gets tricky. The hosts do their absolute best to prepare you for this drive- but if you don't have any mountain experience, I'm not sure you can be fully prepared. That being said, they suggested we arrive during the day, which we did- and I'm so thankful we did. After the first Drive up, it was much easier and not a big deal- but the first time was definitely something to remember. Overall, it was a great stay. The hosts have great communication. There Was a tree down on the power line when we Got there (no power disruption) and they had someone there to fix it within a couple of hours. I highly recommend this place.

Fall Break Family Vacay

The house was as pictured, very nice, clean and well equipped as compared to some other rentals in the area. We have stayed in Maggie Valley area several times a year for many years. Our family vacay this time consisted of 8 people:3 generations- grandparents in their 70's to grade schoolers and 2 dogs. The road up was the first adventure- a front wheel drive mini van loaded made it up the mountain in lower gears without trouble, even in rain and sleet. All wheel drive a lot easier. We saw no wildlife from house but made up for it in Maggie Valley and Cherokee. We hiked, UTV'ed, horse backed, viewed elk and turkeys and enjoyed the rain and sleet from the covered deck. The sunrise on the one or two sunny days was amazing. The only things we would add to the house is handrail in one bath and a HOTTUB on one of the decks. We were wishing for a glass of wine and to sit in a hot tub and enjoy the view. The only negative was the girls didn't want to come home!! We are already trying to get schedules worked out for another trip. Thank you for letting us use your warm welcoming spacious home to make family memories.

Perfect Getaway

Elks Crossing is everything listed and more. This beautiful lodge boasts breathtaking mountain views and the sunrises were amazing to watch. The lodge is beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen has everything available you need and more. Just bring the food. We cooked breakfast and dinner every day and there wasn’t anything in the kitchen we needed that we didn’t find for our use. There were so many little extras available that we were in disbelief that a rental property would offer so much for your every day needs. We enjoyed the game room with the pool table, many kids games available to use, movies, outdoor ring toss, even a hammock to enjoy. All the furniture was comfortable including the outdoor furniture. Sitting on the deck enjoying the view, fresh air, listening to nature was so relaxing. We even saw a huge male elk which was awesome. Privacy is terrific. This lodge was by far heads and shoulders above any rental we have used over the years. We vacation in a cabin setting at least one a year. There’s plenty to do and see within a reasonable driving distance. We have already decided to use this lodge in the future. For our family, it was absolutely wonderful.

Need a 4 wheel drive and a steady heart

The house itself is gorgeous. The road to get to the house on the other hand was heart stopping, and not in a good way. It is a one way gravel road up the side of the mountain, that other people live on. That means some one will have to back down or up into someone's gravel driveway that is also a hairpin turn. The only space there is for two cars is about a mile from the top/bottom and it is only the size of maybe two cars. We took two trucks and my father, who is in his 70s drove one, while my husband drove the other. Not a fun 25 minute drive. We stayed one night and decided that since we had planned on going places and not staying in the house the whole time it would be better if we just left. My son, who is autistic, couldn't handle the drive up and down each day for the week. I might add that if you are used to mountain roads this is an amazing house and you should check it out, it is just not for the faint of heart or city slickers.

Great Place, Great views, Loved it!

This was a last minute booking that went smooth. The lodge had plenty of room for our party of 6.. They really thought of everything, we even found a pair of binoculars which was nice as the moon was nice and full when we were there..You will see a beautiful sunrise every morning from the 2nd floor wrap around balcony/porch which there is also french doors in master BR that open to this balcony. The views were AMAZING !!! ..Humming birds in the morning flying around as well. Kitchen stocked with everything you will need to cook, just bring your food. Fire pit, bbq grill there as well. Pool table down stairs with additional flat screen, fireplace,bathroom and bedrooms which is great if you have young adults that want to get away from the older adults or vice versa.....The drive up to the lodge was not a problem at all for us in a huge suburban. They did send us some maps to help us find the place however we just used our cell phones gps as it seemed easier and had no issues, gps drove us straight there. You will have to take your trash to the waste mgmt place in town when you are done with your stay which proved a little challenging since we did not have a truck bed and had 6 people and luggage etc, to also load up..so just double bag all your trash.(they provided plenty of bags)The waste mgmt place was very easy to deal with and VERY quick.. There were some neighbors around however you don't even know they are there, and besides 1, you cant even see them from the lodge, very quiet. This place is also close to Cherokee,Bryson City, and we even took a day trip to Gatlinburg.. So if you are looking for beautiful mountain views, beautiful sunrise, peace and quiet, plenty of space, no one to bother you, this is it..We would definitely stay here again without question .

About the host

Hosted by Josh & Julia Langei

Host profile image
We’re thrilled to share our mountain home with you. Owning a place in the mountains has been a long-time dream of ours, and we’re so grateful to see it come to life. Over the years, we’ve stayed in many cabins and used those experiences to thoughtfully create a comfortable, memorable retreat for both our family and yours.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property the moment we arrived. Within minutes, we were greeted by an elk—and instantly knew this was the perfect place for us. The lodge offers plenty of room for our family of six, with ample space to comfortably host grandparents and friends as well.

What makes this property unique

What truly sets our property apart is the combination of breathtaking high-elevation views, abundant wildlife, and thoughtfully designed spaces for both relaxation and connection. Sitting at nearly 5,000 feet, the lodge offers sweeping mountain vistas you can enjoy from nearly every room or while relaxing on the expansive wrap-around deck.

One of the most unforgettable features is the frequent elk sightings—guests often see them grazing nearby or wandering through the property, creating a one-of-a-kind mountain experience you won’t find just anywhere.

Inside, the lodge was designed with real guest experiences in mind. With spacious living areas, a fully equipped kitchen, a large game room, and sleeping arrangements that comfortably host families and groups, there’s room for everyone to unwind and have fun. From cozy nights by the fireplace to game nights, outdoor grilling, and gathering around the firepit under a sky full of stars, every detail is meant to create lasting memories.

It’s the perfect blend of peaceful seclusion, natural beauty, and easy access to some of the Smoky Mountains’ most popular destinations—making it both a relaxing retreat and an ideal home base for adventure.
