Th cabin was very nice just as it was listed. The host answered questions in a timely manner. Cabin was located in a good location to where we wanted to go. Stocked with everything you needed. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
Great cabin in the mountains outside Maggie Valley. Close to Cataloochee Great Smokey Mountains National Park, Maggie, Cherokee and Asheville. Nice and quite just like we wanted. Great get away.
We went to SquareDance for a week in Maggie Valley. The house was just 7 minutes awayIt was extremely peaceful and relaxingThe beds were comfortable and the views magnificent
We were looking for a cozy mountain cabin to celebrate our anniversary and we found the perfect place. This lovely cabin is close enough to town, so we could go out to dinner and then come back for a relaxing evening on the back porch or a glass of wine by the firepit.
Absolutely loved the place. It was homey, cozy, clean, roomy, well appointed, quiet, secluded but near neighbors. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. Waynesville is close enough and a cute town to explore. Lots of attractions close by. Especially loved the waterfalls!

Best cabin I ever stayed in
Spent a week in the cabin with my 3 best friend's. We LOVED it. I can't wait to come back with my husband.
The cabin was lovely and well equipped. We had one concern which our host responded to immediately. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet retreat.
The cabin was immaculate. We were gone most of the time but was so delightful to back to at the end of the day turn on the fireplace and relax. So cozy and peaceful. Everything was so thought out for guests as well and very well stocked kitchen. Beds so comfortable and wonderful to wake up in the morning grab some coffee and sit on cozy porch swing to take in the beautiful day.

This cabin is tucked away in the perfect spot and just close enough to town to do things. The cabin was immaculately cleaned, property in tip top shape, and all amenities were provided! We cannot wait to come back to this cabin annually. What a blessing! If you’re looking for a beautiful place to reset your batteries, this is it! Thank you!

2nd stay as good as the first
This is our second stay at this cabin. Noted some updated furnishings. Good to see an owner keep their rental in good condition. We love this cabin and the quiet location. It is well maintained and has a well equipped kitchen. We will be back again. Thank you.
We are trying to travel throughout the country on our motorcycle. Our plan was to not repeat a location until we checked out most of the country. This house, location, and the variety of touring beautiful areas was SO wonderful, we broke our own rule and came back our very next vacation! We love this house, its amenities, the cleanliness, serenity, and affordability. We couldn't ask for more - thank you!!!
Well appointed property. Enjoyed all the details such as wooden hangers in a large closet, many streaming apps, beautiful outdoor furniture /swing. Appreciated the quality hand soap, febreeze, and big soft towels.
Shower could use updated head with more pressure but enjoyed the shower size and plenty of room for toiletries.

Perfect Retreat!
The first attempt to navigate the driveway was a challenge but after that first entry, it was smooth sailing. Upon entering the cabin, we were so pleased with the cozy, lovely interior. The owner had thought of every possible need.
My favorite part of our week was early mornings bundled up with a cup of tea on the comfy porch swing.
We would highly recommend this beautiful cabin which was conveniently located near Asheville, Cherokee and Gatlinburg.
Very nice property that was well maintained. Loved the back deck and fire pit area. Everything we needed was provided in the way of cooking and entertainment. The cabin was clean and cozy. The linens were great (from Costco.) Not sure how old the king-sized bed was in the master bedroom, but it wasn’t overly comfortable. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay in the country and would book this property again. Please note that this rental is on a mountain and about 15 to 20 minutes away from any restaurants and shopping.
My family did not want to leave after spending five nights! The beds were very comfortable, the cabin was clean and comfy, and we loved the location. We wanted a bit of privacy and a whole lot of nature and this cabin had it! If you want to stay within walking distance to a town, this is not your place. If you want to be within driving distance to lots of beauty, the Blue Ridge Parkway and SMNP, you will love this location. Each afternoon we sat on the porch swing and listened to the summer rain showers. We cooked breakfast and dinner in our cabin and had everything we needed.
This was the perfect property in every way.
Clean...easy to get too but far enough away...with a gorgeous mountain setting
The perfect launch point for taking in all the sights...locally in Maggie Valley and Waynesville...and additionally within easy distance to every major location in western North Carolina and the Gatlinburg area of Tennessee.
Cabin itself was meticulously appointed and very clean. the drive to the location was charming, and easy to navigate, as the entire approach was pave up to the driveway into the property
I have taken a fall trip to western North Carolina/North Georgia ever year for the past 6years and this property with all things taken into consideration has been my favorite...
I highly recommend this property and dont forget when you decide to come, be sure to visit the Bigfoot Statue...Smokey Mountain Mangalista's in addition to all the named attractions...the fun in exploring an area is discovering the secret adventures and this locale is overflowing with them!
