This property is very clean and well taken care of. It has a beautiful view and is in a good location to quickly get anywhere in Maggie Valley and Waynesillve. Some cabins can feel a little outdated, but not this property. This property has all the modern feel and comforts, while still feeling nice and cozy!

About the host

Hosted by Scott and Heather Williamson

Host profile image
Dustin, Allison, and their son Carson, live and work in Key West, Florida. Dustin is and an Attorney, Allison is a teacher, and Carson is an on-the-go two year old! In their spare time, they enjoy all manner of outdoor activities. It is that love of the outdoors that led them to begin vacationing in the Waynesville/Asheville area a few years ago. After hiking together as a family to waterfalls in the Pisgah National Forest, hiking throughout the Great Smokey Mountains National Park, and just relaxing on the deck taking in the mountain views, they realized what a special spot this was and decided to put down root in the area.
