This is the second time we’ve rented this cabin because we love it! Perfect location between Maggie Valley/Waynesville and elk watching in Cataloochee. The hosts are very helpful, and there’s a beautiful creek right in the front yard.

The property was amazing! The home was clean and well equipped. We were there for over a week and were never in need of anything. The owners were very quick to answer questions. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer stay.

This cabin was amazing! It was the perfect space for our family vacation. The hot tub and fireplace were great, but the front yard creek was the golden ticket! Our whole family, especially our golden retriever, absolutely loved the great. The proximity to Maggie Valley and downtown Waynesville was perfect. We will definitely stay again.

Perfect family getaway in the woods

Gorgeous setting, beautiful cabin, clean and well maintained. Great location - close to highway, but very private and peaceful. It was a perfect getaway for our two families (4 adults, 4 kids). Everyone loved the beautiful creek on the property, as well as the hot tub. Can't wait to be back :-)

Wonderful property near Cataloochee Valley

We loved the cabin! Kitchen was well-equipped. House was clean. It was pleasantly cool to sit outside on the porch or by the creek even though it was hot summer at lower elevation. The dogs loved running around the yard. Gardens were beautiful. The home is a very relaxing place to stay.
