Perfect location, creekside, close to skiing, easy paved access, Game Pavilion!
Paradise Found is ideally located at Maggie Valley’s west end, very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and The Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Sitting on a year round roaring creek amidst towering trees, it is the perfect base for getting away from it all, enjoying the creek, and visiting the many nearby local attractions and activities. Skiing, golf, fishing, hiking and fall foliage are close at hand, as are lots of cute mountain towns and the fabulous city of Asheville. Waynesville is only fifteen minutes away for shopping and groceries, and The Biltmore Estate is just 35 minutes away. Our cabin has two bedrooms and two bathrooms (split bedroom plan) with the master opening up to the deck and creek. We also have a queen sofa bed in the living room. There is a one car garage in the basement for winter shelter, and a huge detached garage that we have converted to a game pavilion with a pool table, foosball, ping-pong, card table and a huge flat screen TV and couch. Just outside the master bedroom is a wonderful brand new hot tub on the deck looking out to the creek, along with a propane grill, rocking chairs and a nice outdoor table. The game pavilion literally doubles the square footage of the cabin and provides plenty of additional activities that you can enjoy without ever leaving the property! Skiers take note, this is THE PERFECT LOCATION FOR YOU!! Easy year round access and right next to the road going up to skiing. You can’t beat Paradise Found for your winter headquarters too! Our guests are provided with all paper goods, such as toilet paper and paper towels as well as basic soaps. We also provide firewood. There are no additional fees for approved pets. Garbage pickup is provided at no additional cost. Trailers or large RV’s are NOT permitted due to the lack of maneuvering space on the community roads.

My family and I loved this cabin! We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation to Maggie Valley and this cabin was perfect for our first time trip to the mountains. The cabin was very clean, the flowing creek just beyond the back deck gave a very peaceful vibe when hanging out on the deck and the game room was perfect for my 12 and 16 year old teenagers. I highly recommend this place to stay! We will be staying here again!
Perfect clean home for a nice week with the family. The kids enjoyed the hot tub , s’mores by the fire and the game room. Not far from cabin we were able to go tubing in Cherokee, we played putt putt in Maggie, went to lake junaluska to kayak and paddle board and we also went to the fun park in waynesville. The cabin is conveniently close to all of this. We also had Elk come thru the yard a few times
We had a enjoyable stay with 2 adults and 3 children . We loved the stream and game room. Home was cozy and clean. A few suggestions could be more silverware , better instructions on DVD player and having streaming service on TV would have been nice. Front screen door stuck every time and back screens not smooth either. Overall we loved it and would definitely return. Thank you so much
Perfect stay for a family w kids! A comfortable home with separate game pavilion where we could spend time together and also have the little one entertained by TV. Access to creek, large yard, fire pit, grill and deck w hot tub and porch swing/seating! We were treated by elk in the yard one morning while cooking breakfast in the kitchen (which included everything needed to make anything).We appreciated the washer/dryer and provided laundry materials! Hope to come stay again!

Thank you for your kind review. Please come back and stay with us!
This was exactly what we were expecting and what we needed. Relaxing, comfortable, perfect for my sister, husband, me, and my dog. Best features for us: 1 - next to a wonderful, noisy creek which provided excellent sleeping each night; 2 - the back deck had a gate so my dog could have the run of the deck without worries; 3 - the subdivision was small, private, and a great place to walk; 4 - we saw elk and geese each morning; 5 - the back deck was in the shade each afternoon. This was so perfect for us, we have already booked a week in 2027.

Thank you for your review and for booking with us again!
Our family had a nice stay at this cozy little cabin! The hot tub with the sound of the creek in the background was relaxing. Good location to places in Maggie Valley and near the Blue Ridge Pkwy for driving and hiking.

Thanks for the nice review. Hope to see you back again.
Carlos is a fantastic host. Very responsive to questions and always happy to provide solution that goes above and beyond.The property is wonderful with the waterfall/creek right off the deck and the game room loaded with pool table, darts, fooseball, ping pong and video game unit. Price is very fair for the area.The Elk that come through in the morning and evenings most days was the icing on the cake. We have come 2 years in a row and plan on returning again next year.

Always a joy to have you over! Thank you again for your patronage. See you soon!
The hosts are great and helpful. The place is fantastic and has a mountain vibe unlike any other place. The sound of the creek directly behind the house is relaxing. I can imagine how great it must be in the summer. I highly recommend this place. Oh, and the game room is awesome.
