About this property

Cabin on the Creek at Maggie's Farm/ Free WIFI


Our cabin is very very clean, immaculate. The beds are super comfy with memory foam for a good night sleep.
We have excellent internet service and wifi for calling anywhere in the world once you set your smart phone to wifi calling in settings. If you do not have that feature to turn on wifi calling in settings you may have to contact your provider to switch it on for you prior to your stay. This way you can stay connected to your family and friends while you are on vacation. We also have Roku tv with hundreds of channels.
If you are looking for a comfortable mountain getaway on a cold water creek, (over 1000 feet of cold water creek) come and enjoy the cabin on the creek at Maggie's Farm. Everything you want to see in Western North Carolina is close by. We are just 8 miles to the Blue Ridge Pkwy, 26 miles from Asheville and 12 miles to the quaint little college town of Brevard. This is our second CABIN ON THE CREEK the other cabin sleeps 4 and is listing # 7071666 please check it out and read the reviews. Enjoy sitting on the huge wrap around deck viewing and listening to the soothing sound of a rushing cold water creek and BBQing on the gas grill. Try your hand at fishing for native brown trout in Tucker creek for a tasty NC mountain supper or fish in the stocked rainbow trout pond on site. We are pet friendly and allow for max 2 dogs with a pet fee, restrictions apply. Please contact us.
This location is also great for a small elopement wedding by the rushing creek.

The cabin is very comfortable with everything you need, the kitchen is well appointed and has a door to the deck and BBQ. There is a firepit outside near the creek to enjoy the evening stars and smores.
It has three bedrooms and 2 baths split plan with a huge open eat in kitchen and living room, large master bedroom and bath with double sinks. Great for family fun. Enjoy playing in the creek out back and BBQ'ing on the huge Creekside deck. Search for semi precious stones in the creek and it has been said there is gold coming down the mountains in the creeks. The cabin sits on its own private acre of land on Tucker Creek. This is our second and our newest cabin at Maggie's Farm. We now can accommodate parties of 10 with 2 cabins, both on Tucker Creek, see our other cabin at #7071666 to combine 2 cabin rentals.
During the harvest season, you can pick blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries on the property. You can eat an entire meal from Maggie's Farm during harvest.
There is a master bedroom with a queen size bed and full bath with double sinks, shower and garden tub. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and has the hall bath with tub and shower, the third bedroom has 2 twin beds and uses the hall bathroom. The Blue Ridge Parkway is just 8 miles away where wild blueberries are growing in abundance. You can take the Parkway to Cherokee or Asheville and north to Blowing Rock. Transylvania County is known as "The Land of Waterfalls" there are over 250 waterfalls to hike and photograph. The Living Waters is just up the road with 5 beautiful waterfalls. It's also known for its pure white squirrels. Much of Transylvania is National Forest. Great for hiking, biking, and fishing. There are 3 lakes nearby Wolf Lake, Tanasee Creek Lake and Bear Lake. Tubes, kayaks, canoes can be rented locally at nearby The Headwaters Outfitters. You can book a fly fishing excursion through them as well.

Beautiful Place to Unplug and Fish
We had a great stay at Maggie's Farm. Mark, the owner, went above and beyond to make sure that we enjoyed our stay. My son picked the house because he wanted to catch trout, and it did not disappoint! He caught fish on the pond and on the stream that runs on the property, as well as on the Davidson River which is 30 min. away. You have cell service in the house while on wi-fi, but there is no cell service outside of the house, which was nice for a change. We had a great meal in Brevard one night and grilled at the house on the second night. Grill works great. The road to get there is very curvy, so the 12 miles to get there from Brevard takes 30 minutes, so you want to prepare before you go. It is remote, and a wonderful place to unplug. Beautiful setting, well-stocked house, and a great host!

Wonderful getaway!
Our family spent 3 nights here in July and my only regret is not staying longer! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and spacious - perfect for our family of 5 (3 kids ages 9, 11, 14). Our kids loved the creek (tip: bring water shoes) and we had a great time exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway and many nearby waterfalls. During our down time we enjoyed some of the games they had at the cabin. The hosts were lovely and even gave us delicious fresh veggies from their garden! We would absolutely recommend this cabin and would love to return here ourselves!

Lovely stay on the farm
We enjoyed eating outside on the deck listening the relaxing sounds of the creek. Our daughter caught fireflies at dusk and played in the creek every day. The cabin is comfortable and clean in a great location for exploring nearby waterfalls and Pisgah national forest.
Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023

About the host

Hosted by Jaqueline Pray Hatch

Host profile image
Mark is originally from southern England and Jacquie Boston Massachusetts. We met in Central Florida while working in our careers there. We decided when it was time to retire we would move to our property in North Carolina and enjoy growing vegetables and gardening which we both enjoy. We call it Maggie's Farm after one of our cats. We have 3 friendly dogs, Wolfgang, Zeva and Violet, a cat named Mindy. We are growing an amazing variety of fruits and vegetables in the rich soil here.

Why they chose this property

Maggie's Farm is not just a place to stay, it is an amazing small farm with over 1000 feet of cold water creek on the property. You can fish in the creek for natural brown trout or fish in our stocked pond where we raise Rainbow Trout, Channel catfish and Blue Gill. You can put the patio chairs in the cold water creek and relax on a hot summer day. There are many quartz rocks in the creek too.
The location of Maggie's Farm is fantastic and centrally located for most of anything you want to see or do in Western North Carolina and come home to a nice comfortable, clean home away from home. We are known for our comfortable beds and cleanliness.

What makes this property unique

The location is fantastic, a great base for anywhere you want to go or see in Western North Carolina. Maggie's Farm has onsite trout fishing and a cold water creek to play in. In season you can eat a meal fresh from the farm. Blackberries, blueberries, rhubarb, strawberries, squash, potatoes, zucchini, asparagus, apples, pears, etc. The farm house is all the way to the back of the property so you have all the privacy you want but if you need any help with anything, we are here. If you have an emergency, we are here to help if you need us. We are also very knowledgeable about the area and can give you recommendations.
