We enjoyed a wonderful stay at this mountain home in Maggie Valley! The home is clean and wonderfully appointed - everything that you need as a family to enjoy a home away from home. The beds are very comfortable and all of the different areas to hang and enjoy time together made for an incredible stay. The location is incredible - perched high atop a mountain side yet convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Great Smoky Mountains NP. We ventured into Asheville for a day, which was also an easy drive. We would definitely stay here again!

Memorable stay

Our family of 5 (all adults) celebrated a special occasion at this special place. The patio and balconies were amazing and we enjoyed the quiet and secluded environment. We made good use of the hot tub and shuffleboard table at nights. The evenings were chilly, so the firepit and fireplace also came in very handy! This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay... all a short drive to the Smoky Mountains. The owner was also very responsive with our questions and needs, so top notch in our book. Would love the opportunity to stay here again.
