We hope you create bountiful memories at our cabin.

PEACEFUL mountain views from the front porch. The cabin offers guests a gas fireplace, a covered pavilion with a propane grill and outdoor kitchen with picnic tables, washer & dryer w/complimentary detergent, WIFI, and a SmartTV in the living room.

Cozy cabin

We loved the cabin. It was clean, decorated very cozy and well stocked. The attention to detail the owner has provided is wonderful. The cul-de-sac the cabin is located in is just precious, very peaceful. Stephanie is a great host and very easy to communicate with. Very responsive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the area is quaint with great restaurants and beautiful scenery.

Quick Trip

We wanted to get away for a couple of days and ride and look at the mountains and the rhododendrons… It was such a pleasant trip! Even though it was rainy and overcast, we still enjoyed everything and there being coolness in the air. We enjoyed being out during the day, visiting on the porches in the afternoon, and watching good movies on a good TV at night! Will keep this on our list for when we return!

Cozy cabin

The location and accommodation was great. The cabin was cute, clean and stocked with all necessary items (pots, pans, etc) . The communication with the owner was prompt, pleasant and easy. The unit sits on a hill back against SoCO Rd. so you may experience some traffic noise but ONLY IF when the sliding glass door/windows are open during high traffic times.

Great

Very nice and very clean. If I had a suggestion it would be the television Needs cable. If you’re not familiar with streaming and that sort of situation. The only thing I could get on there were old movies. I had a friend come over and try to get something on that was not successful. Other than that a perfect place to stay!

All the comforts of home in a picturesque setting

This cabin home is located on a lovely circle of similar syle homes. The entire area is beautifully landscaped and well maintained. Relaxing on either the front porch or back deck are both great ways to begin or end the day. Comfortable seating in the living area to watch TV or take a nap. The kitchen has all of the dishes you will need for meal prep and a dishwasher for clean-up! Beds are very comfortable and we appreciated having plenty of empty drawer and closet space. Two bathrooms is a bonus! Rooms at night are quiet, with good window coverings that block outside light. Night lights are in the bathroom and hall for those mid-night trips. We enjoyed watching a chick-a-dee in the tree just off the back deck. Near the end of our stay, we discovered a nest was in the decorative bird house that adorns the patio table on the deck. We made breakfast and prepared a lunch before heading out for a day of hiking or sightseeing. We cooked at the cabin a couple of nights, but also took advantage of the great variety of options for eating out; both in Maggie Valley and in nearby Waynesville. All in all, we were very pleased with our stay at Maggie Valley.

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Hoogerwerf

Host profile image
We grew up in Clearwater, Florida and used this family cabin for respite from the Florida heat. 25 years ago, our family moved to Houston TX and quit visiting visiting Maggie because of family and job responsibilities at home. We retired 4 years ago and have spent several weeks each summer since then revisiting the area, enjoying the area and updating the cabin. We are devoted to our granddaughter and church in Texas but someday we might make the leap and relocate full-time.

Why they chose this property

The cabin is comfortable, clean, and recently updated. The location is accessible in all kinds of weather and in a friendly quiet and safe community. We love it there and think you will too.
