Quiet Getaway

We were looking for quiet tranquility with a view. Even though you have neighbors everyone is friendly and respects your privacy. Cabin is very well appointed and exceptionally clean. However the killer is the outside deck. Even when it rains you have plenty of cover to sit it out. We did not try out the fire pit because we were too lazy. Definitely a cabin I would return too many times.

Beautiful Cabin

We came during an arctic blast….lows in the single digits. This cabin was the absolute perfect place to settle in and take in the mountains feels. The fire pit was so relaxing while watching the elk play and eat around us.

Relaxing Stay

My husband and I decided to stay a few days in Maggie Valley. The location of this home is perfect. It’s easy to find and convenient to everything we wanted to do. The home was spotless and comfortable. We saw elk each day and that was definitely one of the reasons we chose this home. We would definitely stay again.
