Map & Owner's Profile
Bella Vista - Clean Cabin with Hot Tub & Wonderful View
Year Purchased: 1999
Why the Owner Chose Maggie Valley
For about 15 years, we have been frequent visitors to Maggie Valley, North Carolina. We were so impressed with the area and it's beauty we decided to buy a home, not only for our few visits a year but to have a retirement home in the future. In December 1999, we became the proud owners of Bella Vista which means “beautiful view” in Italian.
We fell in love with the view and that fact that there is easy paved access to the cabin was such a bonus, especially in the mountains where the gravel roads can be a challenge.
Because our primary residence is near Tampa, Florida and we cannot enjoy Bella Vista all year long, the next best thing to do was to open our home to you. We hope the name is fitting and that you enjoy the view as much as we do! We are both avid golfers and find rest and relaxation by visiting the links. We usually travel to Maggie Valley with 8 or more fellow golfers and have had great times playing Springdale CC, Laurel Ridge CC (Lisa’s favorite for the view) and Maggie Valley CC.
The Unique Benefits at this Private Mountain Cabin
We hope the name, Bella Vista, is fitting and that you enjoy the view as much as we do! We are both avid golfers and find rest and relaxation by visiting the links. We usually travel to Maggie Valley with 8 or more fellow golf couples and have had great times playing Springdale CC, Laurel Ridge CC (Lisa’s favorite for the view) and Maggie Valley CC.
While not on the course, we enjoy watching the birds, chipmunks and other small creatures that visit us. The wild turkeys often come for a visit. The peacefulness and serinity is wonderful. We love having dinner outside on the deck and watching the day slowly turn to darkness while sitting in the rockers on the deck.

We are so glad you enjoyed your Thanksgiving week stay and the cabin was equipped with everything you needed.
