About this property
Just Built New Cabin In the Valley Year Round Access, The Barn Owl
The Barn Owl Cabin that is truly in the valley of Maggie Valley. Owl-Valley Properties cabins are nestled in the quiet community of Crocket's Meadow. The 1,500 square foot Barn Owl Cabin features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and can sleep up to 6 adults with two king sized beds (1 is electric) and 2 adult twin beds. Each room has large windows and natural light thru out. You can sleep looking out to the snow or rain falling and wake up to the sunrise; Or just close the blackout curtains and sleep in.
Our kitchen is fully equipped with a Keurig coffee maker and a drip coffee maker and all the essentials to cook your breakfast; Or you can go to local favorite Joey's Pancake House minutes from the cabin. We have a dinning table that can comfortably sit 6. Also, a convenient large island for food prep or shopping bags drop off with bar stools for two for extra sitting.
There is so much to do here in the Smoky Mountains and we are next to the Smoky Mountain National Park and Cherokee Reservation and Casino. You have skiing, golfing, hiking, horseback riding, shopping and craft shows. The annual Folk Moot Festival with multiple international artists is a great cultural experience that is performed next door in Waynesville. Maggie Valley has many year-round festivals now including the Elk Fest in the Fall. Within an hour and half or shorter driving distance there is Asheville, Biltmore Estate, Lake Fontana for kayaking and boat rentals, Nantahala River for rafting/tubing and fishing. You can still be home by dinner for that nice slow cooked meal you started in the morning.
If you just want to relax and stay in the cozy Barn Owl Cabin, you may want to sit out on the rocking chair on the deck and watch the colorful leaves drift in the fall. You may even see an elk herd walking by. Inside, we have a loft with a desk, chair and a recliner chair for those who need to get away for a moment and read, write or work. Our living room has a couch with 2 recliners and 2 swivel chairs where you can watch your favorite shows on cable TV including a premium channel, Starz. Here, we don't have the rain or snow satellite worries. We like the cabin, but without the cabin fever.
We want to have our guests have easy access to the Smoky Mountain view without the worry. Can your car make it or will you get stuck or trapped because of the scary drive? No stuck cars here, our roads are plowed in the winter by the city and we are a biker friendly community.
For the friends and family, right next door Owl-Valley Properties has another brand new cabin, The Red Fox with all the same amenities.
Come and see from your cabin window, the beautiful elevated views of the mountains surrounding you and have the true valley experience.

The cabin was super cozy, with lots of natural light flowing in. We really appreciated all of the amenities from the welcome snacks to the laundry pods. The cabin was exactly as described, it was clean and comfortable. We were able to unplug and enjoy family time on the rainy days inside with puzzles and cards. Thank you.
The cabin was nice and is in a beautiful area. We had elk right behind the cabin one morning!! The host, Sven, was very responsive to a couple of minor concerns that we had.

The cabin was beautiful, well-appointed, very clean with all the amenities, including very comfortable beds. The neighborhood was quiet with nice couples for neighbors on both sides. The hosts were responsive & caring and went above and beyond to make things right when we experienced a relatively minor issue with the front door. We enjoyed our visit so much that we plan to book this same cabin for next year's event.

About the host
Hosted by Sven and Jennifer Uellendahl
Sven was born and raised in Dusseldorf, Germany. He moved to the US in 1990 where he met his wife Jennifer. Jennifer was born in New Mexico and was raised in Florida. We married in 2009 and moved from Florida to North Carolina in 2011. Sven retired as an Airline Captain and Jennifer still works as an Tax Expert for a Multi-National Tax and Software Company.
Why they chose this property
We were looking for an investment property close to our home in Waynesville, NC. The Crokett's Medow neighborhood seemed to be ideal. Its quiet, well maintained and easy to get to. The roads are kept free of snow by the town of Maggie Valley. There is city water and sewer. The lawns are well kept by HOA and the views are great. When two brand new cabins, still under construction, were offered to us, we jumped at the opportunity and bought both of them.
What makes this property unique
The cabin is brand new. Jennifer furnished and decorated the cabin in a modern mountain look. All furniture is high quality and new.
