Quiet cabin retreat
We very much enjoyed the cabin and outside fire pit. The host was very helpful with helping us with early check in and when we had vehicle troubles. He had neighbors come help us. The driveway was a challenge for our full dress touring bikes but we made it work. The amenities in the cabin were great! Overall we loved our experience and the rides around the Smoky Mountains was awesome!

Formidable ubicación
Una cabaña muy acogedora con todos los servicios, lo desagradable fueron los vecinos que no dejaron dormir por andar paseando en sus motos

About the host

Hosted by Pat & Jeri Kennedy

Host profile image
We live in Tampa Florida with our teenage daughter. We also have two adult kids in college. In 2004, our family rented a cabin in Waynesville and we all fell in love with the North Carolina mountains! In 2014, we bought the property and began designing the cabin. In March of 2016, we broke ground and opened for business in December of 2016.

The cabin was Pat's childhood dream. Ironically, years ago, Pat's sister bought them "The Kennedy Hideaway" sign, which hangs next to the front door of the cabin. We had no idea that would eventually become the name of our business.

Jeri teaches special needs kids in high school and is the volleyball coach. Pat retired from a career in law enforcement and now coaches high school golf and boy's basketball.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for numerous reasons. The views are spectacular and the rushing water from the stream provides such a soothing experience while you enjoy the rockers on the porch by day and amazing white noise while you sleep at night. Whether you're looking to hike, enjoy beautiful waterfalls, explore the Smokey Mountain National Park, drive the Blue Ridge Parkway, ski or go tubing, white water rafting, ziplining, gambling in Cherokee, the Biltmore in Asheville, enjoying great restaurants, or shoping in Waynesville or Maggie Valley, you're never far from the cabin.
