Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently returned from our stay at Soaring Eagle cabin which we rented through Smoky Mountain Retreat. The cabin is located so that its porches reveal the valley below providing a beautiful view from this mountain overlook. The cabin was clean, well appointed and ready for our move-in as promised. Staff at Smokey Mountain Retreat were friendly and fun. We will definitely be back.

One of the best!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Every summer we rent a cabin in the Waynesville/Maggie Valley area. Sometimes the cabin falls short of expectations. This cabin - Soaring Eagle - was awesome! The views were breathtaking and the huge covered porch is the perfect way to enjoy it. There's plenty of space for 5 guests but more than that might be a little cramped if they're all adults. The furniture is comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen very well stocked! The upstairs king bed was super comfortable but the other 2 beds were not. All the appliances worked well. The hot tub is a nice touch as well. There's a fire pit and corn hole, which we had a lot of fun playing. There was a ton of dust that kept accumulating in the main floor bedroom for some reason so beware if you have allergies. The A/C doesn't cool evenly. The downstairs is freezing, the middle floor (main) is comfortable but the upstairs is warm. However, with a window open at night with the table fan on, it was very comfortable. This is not a deal breaker for this lovely cabin. Its one of few cabins we would return to (in hopes they upgrade the mattresses or we'll bring a an extra pad). The rental company was very responsive and polite. Its obvious they care, unlike other local rental companies. The gated community is gorgeous and the roads are very well maintained. Its close to everything so even though you're up high, it doesn't take long to get anywhere. We absolutely loved our stay!

A great cabin, but some issues with hottub, fees, & pest control

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Soaring Eagle is a great cabin, fairly high on the mountain, with a great view. The interior is quite nice, with comfortable beds, TVs with satellite in every room, great internet, and mostly very clean. There were a number of dead insects, including roaches, on the floors, though. It seems they may have recently sprayed pesticides but didn’t clean up after. Not a big deal, but it’s something you’d think would be taken care of, especially considering most everything else in the cabin is so well done. The exterior decks are great, with multiple levels, and a number of seating options. The fire pit is a very nice thing to have. And there is a corn hole set and another outside game available for guest use in the garage. However the hot tub, for which a considerable fee is included in the rental price, was luke warm, seemed to have been over chlorinated, and had a cover that we could only partially remove—just one person could barely fit in—despite taking considerable time, and using tools found on the property. Add to that the other administrative fees that are charged, and the overall experience ends up less good than it could or should be. Overall I suppose I would recommend Soaring Eagle. But the hot tub issues/fees, pest management, and other fees are things to consider.

Soaring Eagle Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: After a very challenging journey to Maggie Valley we were involved in a traffic accident and our vehicle was towed undriveable. We had to Uber from Asheville to the cabin and got there late. Having no food we called the non-emergency phone number for Smokey Mountain Realty. This was for information on the restaurant that may deliver and approval to give gate code number. The gentleman that answered said that Papa Johns Pizza was the only delivery in our area and gave the offer to bring food if they would not. We did get a pizza delivered. But the next day being Sunday the car rental company did not open until 1:00pm and only one enterprise was open on Sunday. Once again had to get uber from Asheville and might I note very expensive. Maggie Valley and Waynesville does not offer Uber service at this time. After getting a vehicle back to the cabin and picking up my wife who just had foot surgery. We were able to get some food for our stay. The cabin was very beautiful and sadly it was distracting with no vehicle being over 600 miles from home. Everything at the cabin was very nicely decorated and we enjoyed the cabin. Wonderful place to enjoy a family or group vacation. Each floor allows you to have privacy with bedroom and bathroom. As it looked like things were settling down we had decided that it was best to leave early and start our journey back home. We decided to load the rental car inside the garage because of it raining. After loading this very small vehicle with things I had in my full size wreaked vehicle from the body shop. When we came out to leave the driveway was now blocked by a white car right in the center and we are now unable to leave. Unable to drive around because only enough room for one vehicle. I blew the horn and no one answered for approximately 15-30 minutes. I called the non-emergency number and gentleman said he was five minutes out on property and on his way. After a timely wait exceeding five minutes, I called again!

Tommy, we are sorry about your accident and we hope no one was injured. This is something we definitely do not want our tenants to experience when coming up on vacation. Overall we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the property and accommodations it provided. We also apologize for the inconvenience that car caused, we had never had an issue with anybody parking in one of our rental properties unless they are tenants but we are glad our staff handled it. We look forward to having you as our guest again and thank you for visiting Smoky Mountain Retreat.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As a regular visitor to Eagles Nest properties, I give this one a thumbs down. It is cluttered and needs a good deep cleaning. Two of the three beds are very uncomfortable. Better value for the price is available in the development but wouldn't stay in this one again.

Mountain View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful neighborhood with mountain views and paved roads. The vacation home location offered convenience to Waynesville (Downtown area) and Engle's Grocery store. Nice home with gas fireplace, well appointed kitchen, very clean, and lots of outside patio area to relax, cook, and enjoy the changing views. Home offers 3 levels with space for multiple family members; including access to outside patio from each level. Main level is reached by stairs both inside and outside.
