Great house. The house is far up the mountain which we loved because we had uninterrupted views and no bright lights at night. We’ll definitely stay here again if back in MV. Fit 6 adults 5 kids well with bonus room.

We had the most wonderful time with our family of children age 1 through 13. The description of the house was very accurate. The home was so beautiful and the view was to die for. The home was easy to get to and close to town but the views were EPIC. Home was super clean and we LOVED our stay so much. We will definitely be back as soon as we can!

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.

Lovely place with spectacular views!

Absolutely beautiful place with amazing views! The temperature was so comfortable compared to Louisiana in June, a great respite from the heat at home. The creek down the road was a huge hit with our kids and dogs. The house was big enough for us to spread out in with all 11 members of our family. Thanks so much for a wonderful vacation!

This property was amazing! We had 11 women staying for a week and this house had everything we needed! The kitchen was very well stocked. The view is spectacular! The host is very responsive (and I had many questions!) and answered all my questions quickly. He even went back to the property after we left to look for an item we thought was left behind. Very conveniently located and is only about 5 mins up the mountain from Hwy 19 that runs through Maggie Valley. Lots of room to park (we had 6 vehicles)! There is an entire coffee area on the lower level complete with its own mini fridge so those guests didn’t have to go upstairs to fix their morning coffee. The house is perfect for a big family gathering or 3-4 couples spending time sightseeing or just relaxing!
