Had a great time at this location. Short drive to casino amd short drive to snow skiing. Definitely recommend 4 wheel drive in case of adverse weather conditions. Had no issues

The location was very nice and the space certainly accommodated our party of 12. I liked the ability for all of us to be in the living room together. However, there were several items that should be addressed: There were 5 forks for the entire group. The property was dusty and and the widows were not cleaned well. The WiFi was not adequate for today's needs. We essentially had no or very little service during our stay. There were several items laying around the outside of the cabin that would have been dangerous to younger guests. The view from the front porch is beautiful! However, there was not enough furniture for the porch and the rocking chairs were loose. This property could be returned to top condition with a little TLC.

Overall we had a great time at this cabin. The pictures don't do it justice, it is HUGE. There was plenty of room for all 19 of us and the basement was amazing for all the kids. The house was clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more! The porches were amazing, the hot tub was great and you could hear a stream somewhere off in the woods! So relaxing! We went on the Polar Express while we were there. It was about 40 min drive but it was an easy to navigate to Bryson City from the cabins location. We also had a Christmas Vacation movie night and the living room couches easily fits us all!
My only complaints were that the paper products (TP, paper towels, hand soap, etc) were not included or guarunteed to be there. These items wound up being there (I'm assuming from past guest), but it would have been nice not to have to worry about bringing those types of items with us. I would not expect paper plates or cups to be provided but the others listed above should just be part of the rental in my opinion. Additionally, a few of the beds were squeaky and a bit uncomfortable. They could use an upgrade.
Other than those minor things, we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again! The cabin was absolutely beautiful and the house allowed for our whole family to enjoy spending time together to kick of the holiday season!

This is a beautiful property. The pictures don't do it justice.
Well maintained, with a fully stocked kitchen. Large rooms and clean from top to bottom. Our family vacation was a huge success!
All the outdoor decks provided peaceful outdoor seating.
The only down thing was the long gravel driveway, but that wasn't much of a problem.
The resident woodchuck that lives behind the waterfall was very entertaining!
We would all recommend this property.

The pictures shown with the listing are not recent. The house was/is in major need of attention. Lots of things are worn out: towels, coffee cups, comforters, etc- we replaced light bulbs- worked on wiring- fixed the stove….The internet, Dish, nor landline worked the length of our stay.
The air conditioning controls (all 4 of them) were in lock boxes and we had no key or way to access. We used coat hangers to change the temp (they were all set on 80 upon arrival). Only one room in the house had air that worked. We were told the air was working when it was set on 67 and the inside temp was 80. We contacted the property management numerous times and it was not until on our way home we felt our concerns were truly addressed. I texted the PM one last time on the way home and she did offer a partial refund. The house has wonderful potential. We loved the location- end of town, not too far from Joey’s. We loved the layout with all the space. The wrap around porch is great - porch swing and all!! The house is just not in condition to be rented. The PM did say she was going to address the issues.
Before you rent- ask lots of questions- Make sure you are actually getting what you see.

We brought 22 people with us and this placed never seemed small. We were able to all gather in the living area and hang out. Eat together and play together. A Beautiful house inside and very spacious. The only negative I have is not with the home but with the rental company. We had to drive into town to pick up our packet to get into the house. The only thing in the packet was the code to the door and instructions for leaving. Those things could have been emailed to us. We were 2am getting into town and so it was just an inconvenience to have to go get the packet instead of going straight to the cabin.

The lodge was bigger then expected with more then enough room for 16 adults to spread out and do their own thing. We held our wedding on Thanksgiving and the lodge made the event even more intimate and special. The beds were very comfortable, linens were stocked, kitchen had what we needed (may need to be clean out some broken items). We did have an issue with the stove but a repair man was sent immediately and they are k care of what he could and then sent the gas company to fix the pilot light. Very responsive. Overall it was a fantastic time and all said they would go back again.

Great property for a family reunion! We ranged in age from 18 months to 80 years, and everyone loved the house. It is very remote, but that adds to the charm. Just be prepared for a bit of a drive if you need to make a grocery store run. We went in October , and the leaves were beautiful!

While spacious, the internet was terrible and no mobile signal. The kitchen was poorly stocked in terms of basic utensils. Would not recommend.

This is an amazing property! Spacious and inviting, the house worked well for a large family group. The ONLY complaint we have is regarding technology. We had absolutely no cell service and the internet was totally insufficient. We were all there for a wedding, and coordinating activities, restaurant reservations, transportation, meeting times, etc. was difficult. In addition a few in the group had to check in with work and send a couple of emails. Those folks had to go in to Maggie Valley and find decent connections to complete a few work tasks.

The set up of the home is wonderful! It is huge and there is plenty of space to spread out- even with our party of 24. You are in the middle of the mountains so don’t expect lightening speed wifi and your cellular service most likely will be non-existent. This isn’t to any fault of the owners, but just a bonus of being secluded by trees on top of a mountain. The home itself is beautiful with all the logs and woodwork. The lighting could be better- just switching to LED white light throughout the home would help significantly. The driveway is rather small. We were able to fit 4 cars in with some maneuvering, but it is tight. You will need front wheel drive, at minimum, to get into and out of driveway. In the winter months I would suspect 4 wheel drive or AWD only. The owner and property manager were both very responsive and attended to the questions we had during our stay. We enjoyed our week long getaway and would return again.

We had a great experience from booking through the end of our stay. Responses to our chat messages were very quick and helpful. The size of the home and all the space on each floor really surprised us. There were 24 of us and it really was perfect in so many ways. There aren’t as many options for large groups to stay under one roof and we were thankful for this one as it had so much space everyone was very happy. We would recommend and would definitely stay here again. Thank you to the owner and management company!

Reviewer Comments:
The home was clean and spacious with plenty of room for everyone and, overall, our stay was enjoyable. However, more attention needs to be paid preparing the home for renters. For instance, the TV remote for the TV in the family room wasn't found until the fourth day, up until that time the TV was almost unusable. The TV down in the lower level was unusable because the HDMI cable for the cable box to the TV was missing and the TV had no remote to turn it off and on. The furniture around the fire pit was too flimsy to support any weight; someone could have been injured trying to sit in them. And most importantly, the heat in the master bedroom was almost unbearable, generally hovering above 80 degrees. The home itself, and the location, made our stay enjoyable. I would recommend this property to a friend provided the heat in the master bedroom be corrected, and more attention to detail be paid. For the price of the rental, inconveniences, however slight, should be kept to a minimum.

Great place for family vacation
We were 23 total ranging from grandparents to 2 years old. The multiple floors, the game room, and the hot tub were the highlights. The a/c went out while we were there and the owner came right over to help resolve the issue.
One mouse was spotted by the fireplace on the main floor one night about mid stay.
The driveway proved very tricky to get in and out of for us flat landers. The 15 passenger 2-wheel drive nearly got stuck a few times. The listing says a 4x4 access but 2-wheel drives can get out with low gear but the gravel makes it very tricky. Really hope the owner considers paving the steep grade and putting traction lines down. Great place to get away from it all for large groups. Wifi and cell service was minimal for both AT&T and Verizon phones which was perfect for us to keep the teenager off their phones.
Other than the few downsides, this was a perfect place for out family getaway. Highly recommended.

Ending was easy. Host was quick to respond until the day the rental was supposed to start. No one was at the office and host did not answer text until around 4 pm. We just happened to check the Red Box to find instructions. Which we thought was for after hours check in. We thought we would also find a key. There is no key. Only a code to a lock. Which was fine but would have been. Ice to know in advance. Check out instructions say to turn in a key. No key so we sent a message to host to say we were out.

We saw this house and were instantly attracted to size and layout. Photos of the house show it in its hay day. But when we arrived immediately noticed the wear and tear on this house. It’s definitely seen better days. Putting aside the esthetics, it doesn’t matter how worn out a property is the cleanliness should never be compromised, but this house is very poorly kept. I’m not sure who they use for a cleaning company but they shouldn’t use them anymore. We found a lot of dirty areas around the big house, I found piles of dirt that looked like someone swept but failed to pick up. There were noticeable stains and mildew in master bath and other areas were just really run down and dirty, it did not instill confidence that your sleeping and staying in a clean house.. Scuff walls and broken furniture, carpet stains etc,. Kitchen and common areas were not maintained properly. Also wifi was very slow and inconsistent and since there was no cell reception on the mountain, makes it very inconvenient to stay connected, The house has such amazing potential, but the experience was ruined by poor maintenance. I wouldn’t recommend staying here until they renovate and change cleaning standards.

Overall excellent , with some minor maintenance / repairs and proper 2020 internet it could be perfect . Melissa is very responsive and quick with answers.
Driveway and Access road are fine but SUV is a must , FWD vehicles did fine getting in and out .
Ton of space , comfort, stunning mountain valley location with steep mountains around and above giving it great feel .
Internet is a joke, huge letdown, basic cellphone apps do not work , speeds are like 1990s and it can barely open emails.
We paid 5000usd per week and could pay extra fee for Starlink and it's speed of internet. No cell signal so poor internet is even bigger issue .....Amazing home, lacking few easy fixes for perfection .... Overall highly recommended!

This was a very poor experience for my friends and I. We had no heat fir our entire 4 day stay. The guys who came out didn’t help and were very late arriving every time. On the 3rd day the sewer started backing up in the toilets and bathrooms downstairs. Took an entire day to get someone out there. We could not shower or use water. They said the septic would need replaced but they emptied enough for the remainder of our stay. As soon as someone showered (upstairs) it did the same thing. It was a very frustrating trip to say the least. The neighbors were very helpful in trying to get help out there but the help took forever. There was NO cell service so communication was tough. There was a home phone that contacted some management company. But then they had to contact the owners who then had to contact others. The whole process was just not handled well. It should not be that hard to reach people. The house is beautiful but not well maintained. Many things were broken and I’m not sure the last time someone was there to clean. Until things are fixed and there’s any easier way of getting help to the cabin, I would not suggest renting this home.

Our family of 13 enjoyed our Christmas celebrations in this spacious lodge. It had plenty of room which was so nice! The location was great…secluded enough but a short 10 minute drive to town.
The lights really should be updated in the home, especially in the living/kitchen areas. The kitchen was very dim making it difficult to see while cooking. Some light bulbs were out. The landscaping does not exactly match the pictures, as it has not been kept up and cleaned up with the seasons, it appears. But this was nothing that affected our stay. Great rental overall, and we would consider renting again for a future Christmas trip!

We loved our stay at the Blue Ridge Elk Lodge. There was plenty of space for our four families to hang out. The house is gorgeous and pretty well stocked for a big group. Overall it was very clean and in good shape - pretty much what I expected for a large rental home. It snowed and it was beautiful but we did have to shovel the driveway to get out. We loved our stay here!

This house is a huge grand house. We enjoyed our stay but there are many many upgrades and maintenance issues with this house. I would never rent it again because the lighting is HORRIBLE. It has lot of natural light but that’s not helpful when the sun goes down or it’s raining..
The kitchen is just ok. Very very unorganized and no real reasoning to what is in there. There was nowhere to store food. For all the people this house held. A house this size that sleeps 28 people needs a second fridge. Especially since it’s such a long trek down the mountain to get to the store. The outside of this place is not very well maintained. The hot tub is nice. Once again for a house that can sleep 28 people there are no outside chairs (there are 4 at the fire ring and one was broken) the kitchen only seats 12 people for meals. Many places in the house the trim was coming off the walls. The upstairs fire place has a sign that says do not use. There are pretty big stains on the carpet in the basement by the pool table. None of these things kept us from having a good vacation, I guess they are just details that I would expect to be better in a house that we paid this much money for.
The internet is almost non-existant . The cable tv is ok when it works we had an issue that the owner did take care of. But downstairs basement tv never worked and mater bedroom tv had a big line going through the screen. So you have to be creative on ways to entertain everyone to stay here.
Showers had mold in them. Laundry room still had trash left from the last person that stayed there we had to take to the trash. All the towels for the whole house were left in the dryer that we didn’t find for a few days. And my last issue with the house is that houses of this size and cost a week before Christmas I would normally expect would be decorated with at least a Christmas tree. I know that’s not required but. Would be nice. Overall the house is amazing and we had a great week there.
