About this property

Mountain Magic-Peaceful, Cozy, Pet-Friendly Escape

Welcome to Mountain Magic! This cozy cottage is the perfect location for your Great Smoky Mountain escape. Tucked on a creek with stunning views, this newly renovated and charming cottage will take your breath away.

Set on 8 acres and surrounded by forest, you can relax on the covered porch and watch wildlife, or roast marshmallows at the creekside fire pit.

Designed with the comfort of our guests and their pets in mind, Mountain Magic has everything you need for a fantastic mountain retreat.

Mountain Magic offers high speed WiFi, king size beds, a fire pit, and a fully stocked kitchen so you will have everything you need for a relaxing stay.

Set on just over 8 acres, Mountain Magic is one of two sister cottages on this stunning property. The views are breathtaking and the sound of the bold creek that runs through the property will lull you to sleep at night.

Located on the western edge of beautiful Maggie Valley, this spot is perfect for those wanting to experience all the area has to offer. Just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, Cataloochee Ski Resort and Soco Falls, and an easy drive to Cherokee, Harrah’s Casino, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

When you first arrive at Mountain Magic Cottage, you’ll find parking for 2-3 vehicles. Travel up a small flight of stone stairs to the covered front porch. Relax in a rocking chair and soak in the breathtaking, year round views, enjoy a cup of coffee, or barbecue on the new gas grill.

As you walk in the front door, you’ll be delighted to find a wide open floor plan, wood-burning stone fireplace, and original tongue and groove walls and hardwood floors. Fully renovated with new furniture throughout, you will settle right into this cozy cottage with both its modern comforts and original charm.

The living room has a brand new queen sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress and Roku tv so our guests can stream their favorite shows. The living room opens into a fully stocked kitchen and dining area with large picture windows to enjoy the beautiful forest views.

When you travel down the hallway you will find a spacious suite with a king size bed, Roku tv, and attached full bath with a tub and shower, all recently remodeled. There is also a brand new washer dryer in the closet of this room.

The second bedroom is equally spacious with another comfortable king size bed, Roku tv and an adjacent full hall bath with a tub and shower.

Outside, our guests are welcomed to a creekside fire pit, large back yard, a fenced in dog area, and plenty of forest to explore if you desire.

We offer discounts to veterans, active military, and first responders. Please message for details.

There is a private road to access the cottage. It is paved and maintained year round. The last part on the way to Mountain Magic cottage is straight but steep. There is plenty of room to turn around in the driveway so guests don’t have to back down the hill. During the winter months guests should have all wheel/four wheel drive in case of snow or ice.

We are available to our guests by phone, text, or message any time. Our property manager lives nearby and can help if needed as well.

Mountain Magic Cottage sits on over 8 acres at the western edge of Maggie Valley. There is a private, paved, road to access the house. There is one sister cottage on the property, and the rest of the area around the cottage is protected forest land.

Nice getaway for WCU graduation

We were staying here for a graduation and mothers day trip combined. The house is setup with everything needed to cook and wonderful starters provided for everything. The pup loved the creek area and we enjoyed it as well. Only thing that could make it even better were if the paving was pat hed or redone on road leading up. But wouldnt stop us from coming back!!

Snowy retreat

Great cabin and secluded back yard. We brought the dogs and they had the best time. It snowed 2 days and it was beautiful. Warm cabin and kitchen well appointed. Had small issue with fireplace downdraft. The beds are firm. Great for husband, but not me. Ran to Walmart and bought single egg crate foam and it was perfect. Problem solved! FYI. It's really got beautiful views and a steep driveway. Note in winter it can get difficult. You need 4WD...Loriel had it salted and cleared for us. Even the 4WD had chains, so fair warning in the snow season. Loriel took care of everything and was amazing. They have multiple homes to rent as well.

5 Stars

We had a lovely time at the cottage. It was immaculately cleaned, beds and pillows were super comfortable, and the views were beautiful. The location is very convenient and there are many things to do/places to eat close by. Loriel was a fantastic hostess. She was very communicative; letting us know the cabin was ready early for check in, checking on us to make sure we had everything we need, and even left a card welcoming us when we arrived. We had a short stay as we just came to the area to take our kids to the Polar Express, but we plan to return in the summer for a longer stay!

Mountain Get Away

This rental deserves 10 stars! We have rented other cabins in the area before. None were as clean as this one! Spotless! It has everything we needed! The beds were so comfy that we slept like babies. It was central to everything like Maggie Valley, Downtown Waynesville,. Cherokee and the beautiful waterfalls of the Blue Ridge The driveway to the cottage was very easy to navigate. There is a mini waterfall / creek and a fire pit in the backyard for everyone to enjoy. The cottage was very tastefully decorated. It was top notch. We will return! Adam and Loriel are perfect hoasts, very attentive and responsive
