The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
We self-manage the property and take great pride in providing that personal touch for our guests. We like to surprise them with a little "southern hospitality" - fresh breakfast goodies, a canopy for your motorcycle or a unique memento for a special occasion.

Dave, Debbie & Garrett. We always enjoyed coming to the mountains when we lived in Florida, needing our "mountain fix" at least once a year. Now we live here year-round enjoying the change of seasons, unlimited outdoor activities, breathtaking nature and small-town friendliness. Maggie Valley is a great place for our family.. how about yours?

Elk Ridge is the Ideal Cabin Rental

We speak from years of experience, renting from coast to coast since B4I (before Internet). You won't find a prettier spot or nicer folks from whom to rent. We could have pitched a tent and been perfectly satisfied given the views and beauty of the property. This welcoming cabin adds the dimension of comfort that makes for the perfect R & R. The hosts are exceptional and could write the book on how to ensure that guests enjoy their stay. Creature comforts, bedding and linen, and attention to detail are of uncommon quality. Although difficult to leave the cabin, when we did, we found ourselves an easy 30 minutes or less to all the mountain activites - from in-town shopping and eats to isolated hiking trails. We had a great vacation and formed wonderful memories of our time in the Smokies thanks in great part to Elk Ridge Cabin.
Owner response:We strive to continually improve our guests experience at the cabin & knowing we have provided a memorable stay gives us reassurance that we are acheiving our goals. We enjoy knowing our friends (guests) are happy and will hopefully think of Elk Ridge Cabin when they return to the area.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, pet owners, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+.
Thank You Dave and Debbie!

My wife and I just returned from a wonderful, restful stay at Elk Ridge Cabin. The cabin exceeded our expectations. Dave and Debbie's care and hard work can be seen everywhere in the well furnished, comfortable cabin which was secluded enough for our honeymoon, but also close to places like the Biltmore, Historic Waynesville, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. We highly recommend this cabin. It is very unlikely that you will be disappointed with your stay.

(from guest comment log) This was the best cabin we ever stayed in on our many trips to Maggie Valley. It was right out of a wonderful Christmas story book! Spotless, beautifuful, cozy, and by far the nicest, most concientious owners! We are returning! Thank you so much!

What a wonderful cabin!! What a magnificient view!!! The description, while well written, simply cannot completely convey the wonderful vacation in store for anyone staying at this property. It exceeded my family's expectations in every way. The owners are lovely hosts that have become new friends by the end of your trip! The peace and tranquility of this very special place cannot adequately even be expressed by mere words; you must simply experience it for yourselves. Sufficient it to say, we are already making plans to return in 2011; not for just one week, but for TWO WEEKS this time.
Owner response:Our goal is to create a welcoming place for guests to relax, feel comfortable, and truly experience the essence of the mountains. When we have guests (new friends) enjoy their time at the cabin and then return for another stay--- that is our greatest compliment.

(from guest comment log) There are a few places occasionally that exceed expectations. This was one. It is obvious that a lot of your personalities went into landscaping, and decorating, and selecting appliances, and art. This comes through in the soulfulness of the atmosphere- not just a place to sleep. Host and hostess are warm, friendly and helpful. Delightful week! Best Vacation in a long time!!!

(from guest comment log) You really have thought of everything to make your guests comfortable. We love all the attention to detail including all the fall decorations, pumpkins, scarecrows, etc. Loved the fresh cut dahlias too! I hope we can return again.

(from guest comment log) What a wonderful place. The view is great. The cabin is very comfortable and nicely furnished. The decks and porch are hard to leave. The owners are very nice & thoughtful. The cabin is very clean. We enjoyed our visit so much that we can't wait to come again. Thank you for sharing and your kindness. Favorite feature: the deck & privacy -- the view was wonderful!

(from guest comment email) We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Elk Ridge Cabin. The cabin is exceptionally clean, comfortable, cozy, and inviting. Debbie & Dave went out of their way to ensure that we had everything we needed. The view of the mountains and valley is spectacular (even better in person than what photos can portray), and the multi-level deck is awesome. Although the cabin is within close proximity to many local attractions, it is private and peaceful. We highly recommend Elk Ridge Cabin to anyone looking to get away for some rest and relaxation in the mountains.

(from guest comment log) Debbie, Dave and Garrett were so hospitable and generous: we felt welcome and at home here. In addition, while we saw many incredible mountain views on this trip, the spectacular view from the cabin will remain one of our favorites. Thank you so much for making our vacation home so comfortable.
