We had the most wonderful time with our family of children age 1 through 13. The description of the house was very accurate. The home was so beautiful and the view was to die for. The home was easy to get to and close to town but the views were EPIC. Home was super clean and we LOVED our stay so much. We will definitely be back as soon as we can!

This property was amazing! We had 11 women staying for a week and this house had everything we needed! The kitchen was very well stocked. The view is spectacular! The host is very responsive (and I had many questions!) and answered all my questions quickly. He even went back to the property after we left to look for an item we thought was left behind. Very conveniently located and is only about 5 mins up the mountain from Hwy 19 that runs through Maggie Valley. Lots of room to park (we had 6 vehicles)! There is an entire coffee area on the lower level complete with its own mini fridge so those guests didn’t have to go upstairs to fix their morning coffee. The house is perfect for a big family gathering or 3-4 couples spending time sightseeing or just relaxing!

Memorable stay

Our family of 5 (all adults) celebrated a special occasion at this special place. The patio and balconies were amazing and we enjoyed the quiet and secluded environment. We made good use of the hot tub and shuffleboard table at nights. The evenings were chilly, so the firepit and fireplace also came in very handy! This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay... all a short drive to the Smoky Mountains. The owner was also very responsive with our questions and needs, so top notch in our book. Would love the opportunity to stay here again.

It was great. Definitely need to look up the off season dates if you plan to do certain activities. Lots of places closed due to off season. Overall the cabin was great, very peaceful retreat.

Ski Trip Getaway

The house was a great layout for our family as it had plenty of bedrooms and space to accommodate us, our three children, and my in-laws. However, the heating of the house was off. The living spaces were extremely cold and the bedrooms would get very hot or very cold if you closed the doors. The location of the house was great as we were there to ski at Cattaloochee. One thing that should be considered when renting this is that it comes with a long list of checkout procedures and they will charge you if you leave any trash at the home. There are no large trash cans to put trash bags into so you have to drive it directly to the dump. Unfortunately, the dump was not open on the day we checked out so we ended up having to eat the cost of 5 per bag left.

Lovely place with spectacular views!

Absolutely beautiful place with amazing views! The temperature was so comfortable compared to Louisiana in June, a great respite from the heat at home. The creek down the road was a huge hit with our kids and dogs. The house was big enough for us to spread out in with all 11 members of our family. Thanks so much for a wonderful vacation!

Perfect house! Breathtaking view!

This house was perfect for our ski trip to Maggie Valley. The lay out worked extremely well for 2 families. The kitchen is well stocked and the pots and pans were updated and clean. The ski slope is literally only a 5 min drive which made our commutes very smooth. The house truly had everything we needed. The bonus room was a pleasant surprise as well. Thank you for a wonderful trip and precious memories. And the managing company was fabulous as well.

Beautiful home, stunning views

The pictures are accurate. This home is beautiful, and the views really are unbelievable. We spent most of our time on the top floor enjoying the view from there. All of the seating is cozy and the beds were comfortable. One note to future guests - when they tell you to arrive during daylight, you really should. Our schedule did not allow for that, and it was terrifying trying to drive through the dark and fog up the steep, winding road to this house. The house was not lit at all and we struggled with getting parked and into the home. It was much easier the next day, and we did not have that same intense fog again during our stay.

This place has the most spectacular views in autumn!!! My husband and I came here for a much needed fall respite and boy did it deliver and then some!!! This home is absolutely welcoming, comfortable and beautiful in every way… we enjoyed every second we were here, as well as the tapestry of fall colors amongst the mountains… felt like a King and Queen on top the mountain. Would love to bring our family back next time.

COUSIN WEEKEND

The property and house was beautiful. Very well stocked. I think the fees was to much for what is expected of you when you leave. I have been renting houses & condos for over 40 years. I have never had to wash & put away the dishes, I have only had to load the dish washer & start it. I have only had to strip the bed, never put them into the machine & start washing them. We loved the home, just think the fees are to much.

Stunning house!

This house and the surrounding views are gorgeous. Pictures don’t do them justice! The house is spacious, clean, and very welcoming. The hosts truly have included all the little touches - we had everything we needed. The master bedroom suite is on the main floor, and there are three bedrooms and a comfortable den on the lower level. Both the main and lower levels have beautiful views of Maggie Valley. The drive up is steep and we had snow in mid-April, but with AWD we made it up fine. This house is perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature! Our hosts made everything easy, too - it was a wonderful stay!

Not what we expected

There was a forest fire on the mountain a mile from the property which burned all day and night and made it impossible to be on the deck or enjoy the 2 man hot tub for the first couple days. The last day of our 5 day stay on April 8, snow flurries came in and we had decided to leave a day early so we did not get snowed in as there was another group coming in and the steep hills, curves, and switchback are a little nerve-wracking, especially if there is weather. Understand that the 4wd requirement is until April 30th not April 1. No refund for the day we had to leave, so be sure to check what you are signing. Nice home but not what we expected.
