its was easy to drive and had everything we needed.

This home is great and has just what you need. The only problem with the home is working through Vacasa. This definitely made VRBO look bad. Problems were reported on Saturday with the shower door on the main floor. A quick response was given that someone would be to fix it and even asked if they could enter the property when they arrived. Unfortunately no one ever came to look at that issue. On Tuesday at 9:09 AM, I reported that there was a shower leak coming from the upstairs bathroom into the main floor bathroom and main floor master bedroom. I received the following response, "That won't do. Thanks for letting us know and I'll look into this right away. Do you need more towels to replace any used to clean the leak?" I did request more towels. The response to refrain from using the bathroom upstairs and that the local team was alerted and asked for the best contact number. At 7:45 PM Tuesday, I reached out again as we had a party of 8 and having one bathroom was an issue. For the rest of the trip the response I received every day was, "We are still waiting to hear from the local team." No one ever came to look at the leak, the shower door, or replace towels. I sent a video on Wednesday of the lack of water pressure that became and issue throughout the home. Again, no response except the local team would be notified. I asked for the local number to call and was told "It is against company policy to provide that number. I have yet to hear from them.

The drive way has some areas with deep loose stone. It’s not motorcycle friendly if you have a heavy bike.

The house was absolutely beautiful, our teens loved having their own space! Beds were super comfy, and even tho we didn't really use the kitchen, it still had everything we could have needed. We were running late on checkout, (kids waited until last minute to get packed haha) but it worked out because there was a herd of 5 elk at the end of the drive when we walked out the door! It was awesome!! We would love to stay again next time we travel to the area! Thank you for such an amazing time ❤

Cabin is extremely cozy, clean & well maintained. We were a family of 6. Great spaces, fun game room, deck was wonderful for playing corn hole. Cabin is 10 min to ski resort & 15 to large grocery stores. Definitely would stay again!

Our family Loved the cabin’s location. It was a short drive to the Catalochee ski area. The cabin was clean and the space was well laid out, allowing our family to enjoy the time spent there.

Loved this sweet cabin. The porches are wonderful and there was a room for everyone in the family. Kitchen was lovely. In a great spot nice and quiet nestled in the mountains. We’d definitely come back.
4.8
The cabin was beautiful and very comfortable. The location is great- close to lots of restaurants, grocery stores, water falls, tubing, you can even take a drive to Gatlinburg, Asheville, Sugar Mountain as they are all relatively close.
You can hear a nearby creek or stream from the deck- so peaceful and the cabin is surrounded by mountains. The drive to the cabin is easy and does not involve any steep or dangerous roads.
The cabin came accommodated with everything you need. The only inconvenience we came across is that there is no BBQ on the premises, but no big deal. We had a great time and definitely recommend staying here!
4.8
The cabin is very private, yet near enough to other cabins that it's not totally isolated. Beautiful interior and exterior with amazing views from the cabin and from the porches. We would have preferred an additional half bath for our group. And there was very little toilet paper. Had we known we would have brought more. We had 1 roll plus the small amount that they had. We washed all utensils and cookware because some were not fully clean
4.8
Beautiful home, beautiful weather.
A few concerns, screen doors were hard to open and close/ scared we were going to break them.
Poor water pressure. Need a 3rd bathroom on bottom level of home. Red line that run thru the screen on the TV on main floor. Would be nice if there were TVs in the bedroom. Furniture all thru the house definitely needs to be updated. I know it may sound as if I’m complaining, just giving some constructive criticism.
All in all we had a good stay, it was great to have my family together.
I would definitely recommend the home, and would probably stay there again!!

Great location and home! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A grill would have been nice but we managed!

We stayed at this property June 2022. This house was really nice, but would have been perfect if it had a grill and an extra bathroom downstairs. Bonus would have been if it had a hot tub! It’s a perfect, easy location, with beautiful scenery. We saw two elk on the property during our stay! You can hear the stream down the road when sitting on the porch, which made it so relaxing! The kids LOVED the game room! We had 4 adults and 5 kids on this trip, so the extra bathroom would have been nice, but, overall, we all had a wonderful time here!

Beautiful setting, quiet neighborhood, enjoyed elk visiting, comfortable cabin, close to the GSMNP and BRP. Very accurate description and great support from owner.

The home was inviting upon arrival and the kitchen well stocked. Perfect for relaxing during a busy wedding weekend! Liked the circular driveway, it helped with all the coming and going. An extra bathroom would have made it absolutely perfect!
4.8
This home was everything I did not know that we needed. The owner has thought of everything that you could possibly need. There is plenty of space to be together as a big group. The home was in a nice neighborhood with plenty of distance between homes for privacy. We could not believe how comfortable all of the beds were or how well we all slept on vacation. We will definitely be back.
4.8
This is our 2nd stay here and both times were very nice. All the accoutrements (would love an outdoor grill) A/C and Fireplace; Nice area for walks or just hanging out on any of the 3 decks, close by to driving to tons of shops and restaurants. Great Motorcycle area and place to park the bike. Like all homes, some things might not be exactly what your used to, but it always is worth the stay
Come see for more of your own experience.

The home was beautiful inside and out. Plenty room and easy to get to. Easy to find and to get to.

The cabin in Maggie Valley was in a beautiful location surrounded by forest…it almost felt like being in a treehouse. The thing we loved best was it’s proximity to Waynesville, Asheville, Cherokee, Sylva, Franklin, and Bryson City. The cabin had a rustic, but modern feel, and it was very clean. There was sleeping room for 9 on 3 levels with lots of outdoor porches. The basement had a pool table and soccer game, perfect for older children. We will definitely be staying here again…none of us wanted to leave! :-)

The cabin is very nice with wonderful wooded views. We saw elk at the next door property. I don’t understand why there is no grill. Also not sure the bed sheets were actually washed but I removed them and washed them myself. Could use more linens and pans. Very minor things. I would stay there again!!! The neighborhood is beautiful!

We spent a wonderful week at your beautiful home in Maggie Valley. This home had everything we could ask for and was located in one of our favorite places. Our last night there we even had 3 elk walk right down the street in front of the house.
The only thing I wanted to bring to your attention is that the football table handles would not stay on so we couldn't play, and the only board game we could play was scrabble, as the rest did not have all the pieces. Those in no way tarnished our vacation, we just wanted to let you know so you would be aware for future guests.
Your house is so lovely and comfortable. We will be back for future visits, for sure!!

The house was everything I wanted! Nice neighborhood, easy to find with paved roads, very clean and maintained, beds were very comfortable, and the game room was definitely a plus!! The only suggestion I have is to add a grill. My family loved this house, and we will definitely stay again when in Maggie Valley!!

Loved the location of this cabin. Not too high up the mountain and in a peaceful neighborhood. The property is beautiful. We didn't have elk stop by to visit but we saw them one night not far from the cabin. The cabin itself was lovely. The downstairs game room was very enjoyable. We loved the firepit and cornhole game. We would highly reccommend this property. Wonderful vacation! Great response from rental team when needed.

The layout of this house was amazing as was the lighting. Every room had dimmable lights that created such amazing effects throughout. Every accent piece was also thoughtful picked out to reflect the history and culture of the area. The game room was also a huge hit with all the family. Definitely worth every penny...

This was our 2nd time staying in this cabin. The cabin is clean and well stocked with anything you’ll need. Close to the ski resort and great dining. We were welcomed our first day by 14 elk! It was truly magical. I have fallen in love with Maggie Valley and this cabin had a lot to do with it.

Incredibly clean and everything seems pretty new and in working order. The decorations were Christmas/winter themed and was a nice extra touch. Host was responsive - the fireplace didn`t work but they were able to assist. Location was great for the ski area, about 15 minutes away.
