Christmas Vacation

The cabin was very comfortable and had everything to make you feel right at home. We went snow tubing and our son and family went skiing for the first time. Enjoyed how quite the community was. We loved seeing all the elk just roaming around. Finished are vacation off by going to Joey's pancake house. Everything we had was delicious. This was our first time visiting this area and would love to return.

Girl's weekend

Group of ladies I graduated HS with 20+ years ago take an annual trip together. House/location was perfect. We enjoyed having the use of the kitchen for meals, big comfy couch for sitting around catching up on life and watching TV together, and the use of the hot tub and sunrise views. Conveniently located to visit Cherokee Casino and Bryson City, both day trips we made. Definitely a favorite to save for future visits.

Stayed in town for a truck show

We’ve stayed in this neighborhood for Southeast Mini Nationals and its prime location. This was our first time staying at this property and it was great. Very good communications with the property manager, they even called to check if some illegally parked vehicles were ours(they weren’t) because they didn’t want us to get towed. I would definitely stay here again

This was one of the beautiful and cozy places we have ever stayed. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and the owners actually had flowers waiting for me on the counter when we arrived. The property is very clean and comfortable (beds were great). The location is very close to great restaurants and shopping. We were anxious to see the elk. They actually were in front of the cabins and we were able to get lots of pictures. I cannot recommend this property high enough! I would definitely book it again!!!!

Fun Weekend Away

We had a great little stay at this house. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfy, they had a pack and play, which was awesome and meant we didn't have to pack our own. Kitchen is well stocked, house was very clean, hot tub was fun, great location close to the main road and to Tubing World, which was our main destination for our trip.

Lovely cabin in quiet neighborhood

My sons and I stayed at the cabin and had a lovely time. We were able to use the hot tub and took a trip over to Cataloochee Valley to see the elk and take a nice hike. It was very short trip relaxing. This cabin had enough room for all of us to spread out.

Maggie Valley Cabin

We chose this area and house because it was close to Tube World and restaurants. It was set up perfectly for our family - me, my husband and daughter had the main bedroom downstairs and then My brother, his wife and son had the upstairs rooms. The kids loved the hot tub! We snow tubed one day and then went sight seeing the next - a short drive to Waterrock Knob lookout, at the top of that mountain it started snowing and kids loved it. I suggest eating at Frankie’s for a nice dinner but we cooked most of the time. We enjoyed the near by shops and kids also liked the rock shop and activities. The house was very clean and we loved the Christmas decorations because we stayed right after Christmas. We really enjoyed seeing the Elk family in that neighborhood in our last day! Highly recommend!
