Cozy, comfortable and clean cabin!

Cabin was beautiful and the elk were a bonus. We saw one in the field as soon as we walked through the door. Cabin is very clean and well stocked with everything you need. Camelle went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect. Thanks for everything.

Great cabin.

Chestnut Lodge was truly wonderful. The majestic views are breathtaking. The Lodge is beautifully furnished and equipped with every amenity. We especially enjoyed rocking our cares away on the porch. We even had a visit from an elk munching on a pear tree across the road. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to come back. Deborah Soncha Nancy Beverly from Greenville, SC

Love this Cabin.

We really enjoyed Maggie Valley and the cabin. It was absolutely beautiful. Camelle the owner was wonderful. She followed up with us the next day asking if anything was needed which we really appreciated. The cabin included extra toiletries, dish soap, etc. Overall, everything was great. We will definitely be back!

Awesome 👌- Chestnut Lodge is fantastic

Hello Camelle, May we say, this is the 4th time we've stayed in one of your cabins, the 1st in Maggie Valley. What a pleasure it was for us to stay in Chestnut Lodge. We've come a long way from Ireland (the Emerald Isle), but everytime we come to this part of the United States, Deirdre, Anne and I are blown away. We've had restful evenings under the Southern Skies, such a great part of your country. We now move onto our next leg of our US journey, I.E. Nasville, but Chestnut Lodge and your hospitality will not be forgotten. Be under no illusion, we will be back. Hopefully soon. Thank you again. Best wishes to you and your family and all the folks of North Carolina. Cheers, Brendan, Deirdre and Anne, Dublin, Ireland.

We loved this place!

Chestnut Lodge is a beautiful place to stay! The outside is just as charming as the inside. We loved sitting out on the porch looking for the elk and we saw the beautiful creatures throughout the neighborhood! Really enjoyed the rocker gliders. Everything inside was so cozy and very clean and comfortable! One of the very best places we have ever stayed in. We will absolutely be coming back!

About the host

Hosted by Camelle Reid-Blake

Host profile image
Willow Tree Cabins is a company I started because I wanted to manage my cabins myself so I could give PERSONAL SERVICE to my great guests. I own all five of may cabins so I want to make sure that all are maintained to the highest standards. I am from North Carolina and have lived in the mountains all my life. I bought this cabin in Maggie Valley because of the easy access to so many things to do. It is close my home in North Carolina so it's a great little weekend getaway. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It's cozy and unique in every way you can imagine...BEST OF ALL ~~ IT IS VERY CLEAN!!!

What makes this property unique

The thing I love most about staying at my cabin is that the feeling cozy comfort is all around. You never even have to leave the cabin if you just want to sit and relax. A desk table at one of the windows is the perfect spot to put my laptop when I need to do a little of my work. The back covered deck has rocking chairs to sit and rock the evening away. The early morning sunrise will take your breath away, as well as the smell of the cool morning dew.
