About this property

Easy access! Mountain Views,Watch the Elk, Fire Pit,Close to Skiing,Tubing, Golf

Experience sweeping long-range mountain views and modern rustic comfort at Linger Longer Elk Lodge, a beautifully crafted log cabin built in 2020 and ideally located in the heart of Maggie Valley. With easy year-round access (no steep roads) and VRBO Premier Partner status, you can book with complete confidence.

Nestled in the peaceful community of Crockett’s Meadow, this cabin delivers unforgettable scenery in every season. Watch elk graze at twilight, enjoy fireflies on warm summer evenings, and soak in panoramic mountain views from the expansive 16-foot porch. Rock your cares away in a porch rocker, gather around the firepit, or simply relax on the spacious wrap-around deck while breathing in the crisp mountain air.

Inside, the 1,450 sq. ft. living space blends upscale finishes with cozy mountain charm. Highlights include a striking stone gas fireplace, granite countertops, a live log beam, and a handcrafted rustic staircase—creating a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both elegant and comfortable.

The cabin features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, making it ideal for families, couples, or small groups. Two bedrooms offer plush king beds, while the third includes a comfortable queen. The primary bath features a walk-in shower, and the upstairs bath includes a shower/tub combination.

Location was easy access to Maggie Valley. Neighborhood was quiet with elk, rabbits, and birds visiting. Porch was lovely to sit on and enjoy the peace and beauty of the mountains. The host provided all the details for an easy stay. Kitchen had all the needed things if you wanted to eat in. Cozy living room area. There was a fireplace and firepit but we didn't use since it was summer.

We rented for 3 weeks this year. Maggie experienced at least 13 days of rain the cabin never left us with no outdoor time. The decks are so covered we had no problem rocking on the porch or reading. Most of the rain was light but it had the air breath. If you are looking for a quiet area with piece this is the property to visit. Looking forward to do this again.

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin! Norma was amazing to work with, so helpful, friendly, and responsive, which made the entire experience seamless. The location could not be better: super close to Cataloochee Ski Area, making ski days incredibly easy.The neighborhood was charming, quiet, and peaceful, and the cabin itself was spotless, beautifully appointed, and so welcoming. It truly felt like a home away from home. We loved that it was dog-friendly, and the setting was perfect for relaxing after a day on the slopes.This cabin is an ideal choice for anyone wanting a cozy, clean, and convenient place near Cataloochee. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend it!
