About this property

Your Smoky Mountain Cabin suite…In the heart of the Smokies. Dog friendly!

Take it easy and unwind at this tranquil, dog friendly, and truly beautiful getaway located in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Maggie Valley, Cataloochee Ski area, Harrah’s Casino Resort in Cherokee, and the picturesque town of Waynesville. Asheville and it’s regional airport is just 45 minutes away. Every modern convenience is available at the cabin’s rental suite, but with palpable rustic “mountain” charm. Included in this tastefully appointed first floor suite with it’s own private entrance is an open concept living room with cozy wood stove, kitchenette, bedroom with walk-in closet and a full, renovated bath. Guests access the cabin’s rental suite through french doors from a spacious, covered deck with comfortable seating, a gas grill, and amazing views of the property grounds and surrounding mountain vistas and pristine old growth forests. The living room sofa doubles as a sleeper bed, which along with the full bedroom allows for 4 guests to sleep comfortably. Other amenities include a well equipped kithenette with microwave, large air fryer oven, compact refrigerator, cook top, toaster, and Keurig coffee maker; a cozy wood stove with firewood provided by owners is available during the fall and winter months for supplemental heat. A well maintained hot tub, fire pit, recently upgraded free high-speed Wi-Fi, and large screen smartTV are also available to guests. The property surrounding the cabin is truly impressive, with old growth maples, hemlocks, oaks, Rhododendrons, with impressive mountain views. For fishermen, a beautiful trout stream is a quarter of a mile away. Interstate 40 is just three miles away and allows for quick and easy access to and from the cabin. Parking is free on the property and there is no cleaning fee. Dogs stay free of charge, and you can bring up to two dogs with no restrictions on weight or size! Owners/operators of the property are present at the cabin’s second floor residence and are available to guests to provide assistance as needed at the cabin, and as a helpful resource to better understand and appreciate the more desirable eating establishments in the area, points of interest, hiking trails, and must-see sites in and around the National Park, Blue Ridge Parkway, and surrounding area. You’ll want for nothing in this well appointed, spotlessly clean space in one of America’s most sought out vacation destinations!

This rental is lovely, spacious and the host is very welcoming! Our Yorkie was made very welcomed here, and no extra chatges for hom was a plus. Additionally, no odor or evidence of other pets at all. Oh, and make sure you have breakfast at Haywood Cafe 209 while in the area! Wonderful patio dining area, a plus!

This property was very quiet and surrounded by woods. The hot tub was a nice perk. The people who own live on site in a separate part. You get the entire first floor suite to yourself and Denise is very helpful with any questions you may have. It really was like a little home away from home. The bed and pull out are comfy.

Tucked away in the mountains

A great place to get away from it all. The winding road to the cabin would not be for those who are looking to get in and out quickly. Beautiful area.

Mountain trip

We had a nice stay and enjoyed how close it was to Maggie Valley nearby hiking and skiing. It was quiet and cozy and had what everything we needed. The only downside was a couple things not being clean and having nothing to clean with. It wasn’t anything drastic but a small set back after a long journey of driving.Host was welcoming and very friendly!

Perfect!

We went snowboarding for the weekend at Cataloochee and our stay was perfect! Denise was so kind and accommodating, and her cabin was beautiful! It even snowed overnight which was an awesome surprise to wake up to. She had everything we needed, it was very clean, at the hot tub was super nice. We will definitely be staying again when we come back to town!
