Amazing Stay in Maggie Valley

We loved our stay. The house was exactly as described. The location was perfect. Great view with a secluded mountain feeling but close to everything. Totally recommended.

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!

Maggie Valley, Smoky Mountain, Log Cabin

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.

Perfect mountain stay

This is a truly stunning cabin, with expansive mountain views, and a beautiful, stylish interior. The kitchen is perfectly equipped for serious cooking, and the location (with Asheville, the BRP, and the Great Smokies all within 40 minutes) is ideal. Shelley is a great, responsive host. Will be coming back soon.

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!

Nice House

Very nice, clean and well maintained house in Maggie Valley/Waynesville area. Long range views from front porch. We've rented a lot of houses in the Waynesville area, cleaning fee on this one was the highest we've paid.

The Mountain Top

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.

Beautiful home

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.

Gorgeous cabin, gorgeous location.

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!

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.

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!

Winter Paradise

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

Feedback

Hopefully this isn't posted to the app and is just seen by host and property owner as I am not the type of person to publicly share negative feedback. 1. We got in late and the sheets in master bedroom were not cleaned. We had to stay up for several hours laundering the sheets. Were dirty and had hair in them. Same with upstairs bunk bed. 2. Mops were left out on stairs. 3. Not enough supplies were provided such as trash bags, paper towels, etc. 4. There was a mouse or rat in the property that was getting into the trash and shredding paper with signs of nesting. 5. There was rodent or insect droppings inside of drawers with silverware, etc. that required cleaning everything prior to utilizing. 6. Closing directions requested that trash be brought down to the end of the road, but traveling families are loaded down with children and suitcases making transporting trash impossible. 7. Pillows extremely uncomfortable and should be replaced if older than 1 year. 8. Beautiful property and location; but lacking in cleanliness and hospitality.

Third time here!

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!
