We loved the cabin!

The cabin is set in a very serene community that Elk visit on a regular basis which is awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin and the setting. There is an awesome firepit that you can enjoy in the evening after a day of shopping or hiking. Lake Junaluska is close by and a definite must as well as a hike to the Soco Falls. They are both gorgeous and worth going to see. The cabin is very new and absolutely one of the best we have ever stayed in.

We enjoyed the peaceful valley.

The property is clean and very well managed by the owner. The views from the porch is spectacular in itself watching the elk everyday is an added bonus. Camelle knows how to make her visitors feel right at home, checking to make sure we made it okay. HOSPITALITY AT ITS BEST!!

Mother's day weekend with my son and sister in law.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful inside and out. Great location no steep roads to travel on. I liked it because it was in the valley with the mountains all around. Porches on three sides with rocking chairs on all three sides as well. All the bedrooms have king beds. We were talking about the cabin and we could not think of one thing we didn't like about it. Hopefully we'll get to stay here again one day.

Not a better place to stay!

Staying at Blackberry Lodge with its breathtaking views is so peaceful and relaxing. We rocked on the porch most of the days. We saw elk, chipmunks, prairie dogs, rabbits and other critters. We didn’t want to leave to do anything else! The cabin was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and well equipped. We stay at Blackberry Lodge twice a year for a week. Wish we could do it more often. Camelle is a sweetheart and very easy to work with. You can’t find a better vacation spot than Willow Tree Cabins! You will not be disappointed!

About the host

Host profile image
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.
