Amazing Cabin!

We had the best stay in this lovely cabin! It was comfortable, clean, and provided the perfect place to relax and connect as a family. We enjoyed cooking s’mores at the outside fire pit and watching the rabbits and an elk that were just outside the cabin. This is simply the best rental I have ever stayed at!

Weekend Getaway

This little cabin was beautiful! My children fell in love, both with location and decorations within. It was very well stocked with everything from pots, pans and dishes to plenty of towels and toiletries. Great location as well, the Soco Falls, Tube world and everything else we wanted to do was all very close. I took my kids for a birthday surprise getaway and we will definitely be back again, they had so much fun tbey were sad to meave.

Very cute and quiet, perfect little neighborhood. Loved sitting outside and hearing the near by stream and the surrounding views. Only downside we would notice the neighbor sitting and watching every move we made, was starting to wonder if he was the property owner.

Great little cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It’s so quaint and cozy. Everything was clean and had nice decorations (we were there right after Christmas/New Years). The beds were comfy and we had everything we needed. It’s very close to tubing and to the road that takes you to the ski resort, which is very convenient. . The owner was responsive and flexible.

Cozy cabin in close proximity to area attractions

We enjoyed the cabin ambiance (wood interior, gas fireplace, outdoor fire pit, giant loft bedroom) without having to make a long drive up and down narrow mountain roads to a more remote location. This cabin is cozy and conveniently located in Maggie Valley. It looks just like the pictures. Note, there is no dishwasher or garbage disposal which was a slight adjustment for us. I had a couple of questions, and the owner quickly responded every time. In my opinion, I think it is an ideal space for a group of four people or less, although it can accommodate more. I definitely recommend this cabin, and would like to visit it again.

Enjoyable but some issues

We loved the cabin but had difficulty w/Wifi, despite specific directions in email. Calls and messages sent through VRBO app went unanswered. We never got a response or help w/Wifi. The heater upstairs seemed to not work but we used extra blanket.
