We had the pleasure to spend a month at this beautiful cabin. It was very comfortable and is located in a heavily wooded, gated mountain community. Temps were typically 5 to 8 degrees cooler than Maggie Valley- a nice break from summer heat! The kitchen was awesome for those who like to cook. Outdoor gas grill was basically brand new. Upper and lower deck porches provide great views of the mountains. Close to Asheville, Waynesville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The host was very friendly and responded quickly to inquiries. There are two neighbors nearby, but both were quiet and also very friendly. We hope to return next year!

What a wonderful week we had on the mountain top!! The house was beautiful; the kitchen well stocked with pots, pans and dishes; and the views were breathtaking. We had lots of laughs, and many great memories were made inside those four walls. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Third time renting this property as it does not disappoint. Beautiful cabin with spectacular views and conveniently located. Easy drive to many locations including the Smoky Mountain Nat’l Park and Asheville. The charming town of Waynesville is only 10 to 15 mins away. After a day out exploring, this cabin with mountain theme decor is a pleasure to come back to - comfortably furnished, beautiful stone fireplace, well-stocked kitchen made for cooking, and porches with long range mountain views…. loved spending time on the swing in the mornings and evenings. Gated community has paved roads though be aware that you are near the top of the mountain so fog or inclement weather can make driving a little trickier, especially after dark. Just plan accordingly….worth it for the views!

Evergreen Escape was everything as presented. The home is beautifully decorated and the moment you walk in you feel a warm cozy feeling of home. The king size bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. My husband and I were the only ones there so we only used the main floor. The fall leaves put on a spectacular show for us. The owner of the home was very responsive and we would highly recommend this beautiful property for a short or extended stay.

Beautiful getaway
Property was amazing ! Views from porch were so peaceful. House was well stocked and cleaned. Property owners were responsive to any questions. Loved the mountain location. Great paved roads, steep, but paved and easy for a mini-van. Loved the garage to load/unload. Thanks for sharing your home!

Perfect location for NC side of Smoky Mountains
This property is outstanding and the house layout was perfect. The ability to have a garage to bring in from long days of hiking before you get into the house was a big plus for us. We traveled with 4 adults and 2 teens. Plenty of space in the house for everyone to spread out and enjoy. Definitely plan a day for just the cabin as it is great. The Dining table is big enough for 6 people to comfortably sit and have a meal together, and the kitchen gets a lot praise for having enough space for multiple people to use at the same time.
The property manager is very prompt in communications and attentive to questions. I will keep this place bookmarked for future plans too.
Location is great as it is in Maggie Valley, but not in the city. 10 minutes to a Publix was amazing and the views are of the mountains! We were eager to explore the NC side of the Smokies so this was perfect, but it wasn't much more than an hour for the day we drove to Sugarland.
5 stars across the board.

The house was very nice, clean and had everything you could possibly need (box fans, extension cords, fire roasting sticks, etc.). Due to the large snowstorm heading to the area and pretty steep drive to the cabin, we were not able to stay the whole time, but the property was great. The hosts were great at answering any questions we had.

Evergreen Soothes one’s soul
The cabin was beautiful inside and out and we had a great time at Evergreen cabin. We loved every minute of our stay thanks to the fireplace, balconies, quietness, Privacy, and the beautiful views from the cabins balconies. Being a gated community and feeling Safe was an Added benefit Especially with all of the hiking opportunities in Eagles nest.
The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to cook, Plus a Jen Air which was a real plus.
While I loved our stay at Evergreen, there was one issue I felt necessary to mention. While I had no problem sleeping because I was sleeping alone, my husband slept in three different bedrooms before finding a comfortable mattress. On day four, he finally found the leather couch in the loft to be the most comfortable, and he slept there for the remainder of Our vacation at Evergreen.
This was the reason for my rating of four rather than five.
Would we come back to Evergreen at Eagles nest? Absolutely, if the mattresses are replaced And the trees trimmed back to improve the spectacular view.

Beautiful views and great location. Views from the back porch are killer, if you love the pictures of the view you will be in heaven. Great location, a good starting point for whatever you decide to do. Shelly was friendly and accommodating throughout the process.

Beautiful Cabin in the Perfect Location!
This was our second visit to this beautiful property, and hopefully not our last! The cabin is gorgeous - beautifully furnished and fully stocked. The owner has anticipated every need, especially in the beautiful gourmet kitchen. With a loft and lower level game area, there is plenty of space to spread out making it perfect for families....although we spent much of our time in the family room with the large vaulted ceiling and stone fireplace. While the cabin is in a neighborhood with a couple of homes nearby, there is a definite feeling of privacy and solitude. The views of the mountains from the porches is breathtaking! Even the drive (paved) up to the property is lovely.... the stream that flows along the way, the vegetation and trees in the woods, and all the sounds of nature. The location is perfect -- far enough away for the beautiful mountain views and that sense of "being away from it all" but close enough (and an easy drive) to Asheville, Cherokee and the Smoky Mountain Nat'l Park, and a multitude of other attractions. We also love the charming town of Waynesville that is about 15 mins. away. We're already looking forward to coming back!

Vacation Retreat
We have spent time in Maggie Valley before, but never "on the mountain" . We loved it! The view was tremendous. The facility was perfect. Very clean and comfortable. After a minor problem with the key box, which Shelly corrected immediately, all went well. Wished we had stayed longer.

Great to drive in the mountains on paved roads right to the garage door! Must be at least a 10 mile view from the porch. Home is exactly as described on VRBO. Close to everything! Would definitely return in the fall for outstanding views of the mountains.

Great location, great views, great cabin and wonderful hosts! The cabin was exactly as advertised if not better! It was clean, beds were comfortable, furniture was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything needed in addition to a wonderful view to enjoy while cooking. The kitchen faced the family living area so you could cook and talk while preparing meals while the family was enjoying the fireplace and TV. This cabin is great for a family gathering or a romantic getaway for a couple. Shelly responded quickly to my questions and she was so nice and courteous which really added to a hassle free experience. I would rate it higher than 5 stars if I could. I've been renting in the area for over 25 years and this was one of our most enjoyable trips. Close proximity to the ski resort, where my Granddaughter saw snow for the first time. It's also close to town for groceries and restaurants. Frankies Italian in Maggie Valley has such great food and so does Joey's Pancakes for a breakfast of banana Pancakes a two year old rated very highly. Thanks Shelly for sharing your beautiful cabin with our family, we will definitely return.Sincerely,Aaron Reddish

Wonderful time
Owners were especially communicative when we had questions or concerns. Enjoyed 4 inches or so of snow. Were snowed in 1 day but plow trucks came soon and cleared the roads. We really enjoyed the white scenery.

Fabulous Mountain Home
Our family arrived the day after Christmas and there was a tree with lights inside and snow on the ground outside so we were thrilled! (We live in Florida.) The views from the house are spectacular and it is located close to the ski resort as well as Waynesville. Asheville is only a short drive away so there is plenty to do. Everything was fantastic and we will definitely be staying here again!

Wonderful Evergreen Stay
Really enjoyed our stay at the Evergreen home in mid October 2020. Spacious and clean home with magnificent long range views off the porch including mountains to the north and the east (beautiful sunrises) with valley below in between. Good timing to see leaf changing. Very responsive owner. Property description is accurate. Fun driveway with room for turn-around. Highly recommend this property.

Great cabin!!
We loved staying here! It’s a beautiful cabin and had almost everything we needed. The cabin itself is beautiful on the inside and the views outside are gorgeous. The only thing we couldn’t find was a way to watch Netflix. Other than that, it was perfect!
