Christmas stay

My husband, son, and myself stayed at the property for our annual Christmas getaway and not only was the house perfect and very accommodating, the checkin process was very smooth! The beds were very comfortable and loved chilling in the jacuzzi or playing a few games of pool. I would 100% recommend this place to stay at!

Fabulous stay!

This was a beautiful home complete with everything you'd ever need for a wonderful family vacation. The kitchen had every gadget needed to cook at home, including an outside grill. Plenty of space in all the rooms to spread out or gather together for meals. Recommendations for activities were much appreciated!

Awesome experience!

Now that I have been to the mountains I can tell it is quite an experience to live and everyone should at least try it once. In fact, one of the things that make your experience such a good one is the place you stay, and this cabin does an excellent job in welcoming you. It has everything you need and it perfectly furnished for comfort!

Memories made

We loved the area because the neighbors weren't too close and the house felt private but it was a close drive to lots of activities. We enjoyed this vacation so much because we were able to spend it outdoors with the kids and they had so much fun. No one was on devices or electronics except down time at night ;) We made a lot of great memories on this trip!!!! We'd love to come back!

Fantastic Getaway!

This home was perfect for our family of 4, and we would definitely come back and stay here again. The sauna and hot tub were wonderful to come home to after spending the day exploring the area. The location is stunning, but believe them when they say to plan your first arrival before dark. The dirt road is winding and a bit bumpy, and the driveway is daunting the first time. The house was clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving stay. It was nice to have a wood fire on the main floor, and also charming to have the basement gas fire while we played pool and hung out. We highly recommend this home for anyone's vacation!

Very nice family getaway in the mountain

Our family of 6 stayed at this well-maintained mountain cabin for 4 nights. House was well-equipped with everything and the kitchen was well-updated with nice appliances as well. Kids enjoyed the hot tubs, but we only wish the hot tub was hotter as we could not control the temperature and was getting cold at night times. Everything else was fantastic!

Wonderful place!

The property was beautiful! Well maintained, gorgeous views, beautiful kitchen, plenty of space, and a nespresso machine! I would consider staying at this exact same home. My only concern was the cameras on the porch near the hot tub. It felt a little uncomfortable and invasive! Other than that, I give this place a 5star!

Perfect Mountain Getaway

This home was perfect for our family of 6 with kids ranging from 4-14. Everyone had their own space and the views were fantastic off the porch at every time of day whether we were drinking coffee or relaxing in the hot tub after hiking in the Pisgah. It was far enough away from town to feel secluded and there are lots of towns to visit with hiking, swimming, museums, breweries, etc. The property managers were very responsive to our needs when I had questions. The kitchen has plenty of dishes, pots and pans, etc so you don’t have to eat our every night. The downstairs area with the pool table was great at night so we could hand as a family buy the bigger kids could stay awake and watch tv, listen to music and shoot pool while the little ones went to bed. We will be back here for sure!

Amazing Mountain Views

Mountain Dayz was just as described. Very well stocked. Had everything we needed. We stayed in and used the grill a few nights. Beds were very comfortable. Amazing view from inside and out. We loved the adorable Donkey near the entrance to the neighborhood. We stopped everyday to spend a few minutes with him. He is so friendly and a wonderful greeter. The area was so nice. The house is in a great location Maggie Valley has some fun things to do . We enjoyed walking around Waynesville and eating at the restaurants. Haywood Smokehouse is a must! We enjoyed our stay at Mountain Dayz
