Perfect cabin
We've been coming to Maggie Valley for several years and usually stay in local motels. We opted to stay in a cabin this time and Camelle offered the perfect choice. So clean and the bed was extremely comfortable Loved the location! Beautiful views and even got to see elk grazing in the pasture across the street. We will definitely use Camelle for our next trip!
It was a great place and will be staying again. We been coming to Maggie valley for 10years and will be staying here for now on.

This home is amazing!
My family and I wanted to take a long weekend and get away from life's chaos. Not only was this home in a great location, it was beautiful, CLEAN and perfect for us. We drove to Cherokee one day and to Pigeon Forge the next day. The location of the cabin allowed us to enjoy other places, not just Maggie Valley. The cabin was more than I was expecting. You can tell the owner takes pride in their cabin all the way down to small things such as the fluffy pillows, providing extra towels, wash clothes and giving your family a welcome basket. They really care about their guest and it shows. I highly recommend this cabin. My family will definitely be back.

Loved out stay at Chestnut Lodge!
We’ve traveled to the Smokies for many years and only recently tried the Maggie Valley area. Chestnut Lodge is probably one of the best cabin rentals we’ve stayed at. All the furniture was updated and comfy. Since it was a little chilly we really liked using the gas fireplace. Fall colors were still beautiful and we watched the elk grazing in a nearby field. We can’t wait to return.

Chestnut Lodge is extraordinary in comfort, decor, quality, in every way
This was our third stay at Chestnut Lodge. It is a beautiful, comfortable, relaxing home away from home. Everything is furnished, including snacks and Keurig pods. The house is immaculate and has all the necessary electronics. There's even an obliging herd of elk--10 that wander the area. We need and find peace and tranquility each time we visit; I hope we can keep returning.

About the host
Hosted by Camelle Reid-Blake
Willow Tree Cabins is a company I started because I wanted to manage my cabins myself so I could give PERSONAL SERVICE to my great guests. I own all five of may cabins so I want to make sure that all are maintained to the highest standards. I am from North Carolina and have lived in the mountains all my life. I bought this cabin in Maggie Valley because of the easy access to so many things to do. It is close my home in North Carolina so it's a great little weekend getaway. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It's cozy and unique in every way you can imagine...BEST OF ALL ~~ IT IS VERY CLEAN!!!
What makes this property unique
The thing I love most about staying at my cabin is that the feeling cozy comfort is all around. You never even have to leave the cabin if you just want to sit and relax. A desk table at one of the windows is the perfect spot to put my laptop when I need to do a little of my work. The back covered deck has rocking chairs to sit and rock the evening away. The early morning sunrise will take your breath away, as well as the smell of the cool morning dew.
