July 4th Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Longhorn Lodge. The house is located in a neighborhood surrounded by mountains conveniently located to the main road. We enjoyed the mountain views, elk visits, and the quiet. The deck is very nice with a ground level hot tub. House is cozy and comfortable.

This was our second time at the Longhorn Lodge cabin in Crocketts Meadow. Our first time in June 2021 was great…and this time was even BETTER!! There is no better cabin for having bull elk within yards of your front porch several times a day this time! All the amenities of this cabin were wonderful to include the hot tub, outdoor kitchen/grill and fire pit area and especially the rockers on the front porch!

Fantastic place to stay. The accommodations were comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook. We also grilled out while elk grazed 30 feet away. So awesome to see these beautiful creatures so close up. The hot tub was clean and very hot! We had a nice relaxing evening in it after playing golf at Sequoyah National. We will choose Longhorn Lodge again when we come to Maggie Valley.
