Hose was fantastic and exactly as advertised! It was amazingly clean and set up wonderfully for dogs! We enjoyed our stay and we booked it again already! The owner communicates proactively and responds instantaneously! You won’t find a better home to rent in Maggie Valley!
This rental was the BEST place we have ever stayed…between the cleanliness, details, comforts from home to the hot tub and view….we will be back for sure!!!! The owner and communication was TOP NOTCH! Thank you!
This was a great stay for Spring Break. Right in the middle of so much - especially if you are an outdoor enthusiast. Our host really thought of everything at her cabin - from the popcorn machine to the logs for the fire pit. The only thing I would warn people about is that it is a one lane road up to the house which sometimes results in a bit of a stand off. Otherwise, wonderful trip!
Great experience and beautiful location. The host was easy to talk to and very pleasant. Enjoyed everything that was provided and the hot tub was a huge hit. Can’t wait for our next trip to Maggie Valley.
Absolutely perfect! Great location, awesome views, privacy, fenced in area for our furbaby and also roll-away gates at entry/exit of the porch to contain our furbaby. Very comfortable accommodations with a fully equipped kitchen with anything you may need. Loved the sunroom with its own fireplace to ward off the chill as you enjoy morning coffee while taking in the beautiful view. A very nice and unique accessory was a towel warmer. So indulgent wrapping up in a warm towel after a shower. We loved it so much, we reserved an entire week for next year.
As soon as we arrive we love the cozy place well maintain with great little touch to make the costumers content. Thank you for a great place. We would love to come back. Oh by the way your re commendation about restaurants were excellent. Thank you again.
We had a great time staying at this property.It is cozy and clean and all the amenity is there.Hot tub was definitely a plus!! We would definitely rent this property again if we decide to visit!!
We had a blast at halfback ridge. The hot tub and view were the perfect addition to a wonderful girls trip to the mountains. Jacquie was fantastic and super responsive with any questions. Would absolutely recommend and will return!
This property exceeded our expectations. The host was amazing and so was the property. The property has everything that you would need for a comfortable stay!

Thank you Mark! We look forward to hosting you next stay in Maggie Valley
The house was beautiful. The beds were comfortable. We are right across from the fair grounds so at night we could listen to music for free. The driveway to get to the house is a bit scary, but most driveways in North Carolina and Tennessee take some getting used too. Once we drove up it once we knew what to expect and it was fine. The host has a lot of great tips on places to hike and eat. We would stay again.

I'm glad you had a good time! Stop in next time you're in the area!
We went skiing at Chatalooche, which was a short 10 min-ish drive from the cabin. The cabin was near some really yummy, authentic Mexican food, not to be missed. The views of the mountain range and the quietness of the area made for a lovely family vacay. Would def recommend and would love
to return!
Halfback Ridge is in the heart of Maggie Valley and is easy to get to. Property is flat with plenty of parking. The cabin is one of the nicest in M.V. that we have rented in 15 yrs.. The weather was excellent for early April and we enjoyed the wrap around porch. Cabin is very clean and well stocked. Popcorn machine was a treat. Comfy beds were nice. We won't hesitate to rent again as we visit M.V several times throughout the year. Book it and enjoy it.
Awesome place to relax, cook, enjoy beautiful scenery and want for nothing! Wonderful host! Would not change anything about this property. Will definitely be booking another stay here in the future.
