Great from start to finish. Check-in/out, and communication with the host was immediate. Loved the whole house, but the view, fireplace, privacy, and hot tub set it apart from others. Maggie Valley is a beautiful little town. You can’t go wrong with this VRBO.

House is cute and comfortable. View is amazing and our host was terrific. Initial ride up to house was a challenge for Florida people, but afterwards not a problem. We spent a month watching the ever changing views and did not want to leave.

Beautiful view of valley

The pictures perfectly represented the property. The view of the valley was breathtaking, we would love to come back and see the fall colors. The house was great for the three of us. We loved the hot tub and using the fireplace each evening. It was very relaxing, it felt like we were by ourselves on the mountainside.

Sweet Time in Maggie Valley

Cabin was as shown in pictures. Everything you need is there, just bring your food. Beautiful view of Maggie Valley. Road up to cabin definitely requires your attention. The wet leaves also were a bit of a driving challenge. Aside from that, a great stay.

Perfect,Cozy, Peaceful Cabin Getaway

Perfect, peaceful location with great views! I was concerned about not having AC being menopausal, however it was surpsingly cool especially for it being June! The hot tub was great with fantastic views! All in all very relaxing! Even with following all of the directions for the coffeemaker it still did not work well for me. Also had some issues with the remotes for the TV and DVD player. But I would definitely choose to stay here again!

Wonderfully peaceful mountain hideaway

The Hawk's Nest's amazing 5-star view of Maggie Valley is only the beginning of the story. Very comfortable living spaces, a well-appointed kitchen, a cozy fireplace, and a hot tub (with a view!) that was perfect after a long day of hiking in the National Park. Joel was a gracious and very responsive host. The only challenge was driving the steep, winding, sometime gravel road up to the cabin. While our regular car did just fine once we got the hang of it, an all-wheel drive vehicle would have been preferable. All-in-all, a fabulous stay!

We stayed four weeks at Hawk's Nest!! We've been missing the beautiful view ever since leaving! This was a really great place to stay if you like privacy, cool weather, great views and a cozy place to stay. The kitchen and appliances were very nice. The drive in and out is pretty steep and included a gravel driveway. This is normal for this area and actually the road in was not as bad as some we have stayed at. Still all wheel drive is nice to have even in the summer. Despite being up high in elevation and remote, you can be in town in just a few minutes. Lots of great family owned restaurants in Maggie Valley and Waynesville to visit. We went to the Wheels Through Time museum and it is amazing.The property manager was really great! We had an issue with the internet and they immediately called the provider to get it fixed. They had the speed doubled at the same time. Keep in mind this is a mountain home so internet is not screaming fast, but it worked well for us with only two users.One final note is there are bears around - which is really cool. We had a little bear roaming through one day. He was not a nuisance and ran off as soon as we yelled at him! Still it was great to actually see a bear!

AMAZING VIEW

The property was very nice. It is a very comfortable, clean home with a view to truly die for. Kitchen should be reorganize between renters and good luck figuring out the coffee pot. Hot tub was nice but found it low on water and chemicals. The worst issue is the driveway, beware! It was fine for most of the week but once another group came to stay at another property the road got very torn up. I feel if you are going to run a business the road should be paved to make it safer for renters. Definitely need a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Overall had a great time!

Christmas vacation

All in all it was a great home. Just a few issues at the beginning. The water was turned off outside, so we had no water. I called Hunter and he gave us instructions on how to turn it on. We weren’t given the WiFi password either so we had to make another call. The house was cozy, and we loved the outdoor fire pit. The hot tub worked fine but it was a little old and worn. The view was amazing, it was a great week!

Newly renovated and awesome views

I stay in Maggie Valley every Fall. So, I have experienced several different homes and areas to stay in. This home was the combination of the best of all the properties I've stayed at. It's less than 5 minutes to the main highway, yet still secluded with an amazing view. It's smaller than most of the homes with this type of view, but still has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The gas fireplace was nice for an instant fire and heat worked great. The only two things that I would note is that both bedrooms and bathrooms are upstairs and one of the days I was there it was in the 70's and starting to get warm inside and I didn't see that the home has air conditioning just in case you are considering a summer trip. Maybe I overlooked that, but I couldn't find it. Hunter was the property manager and was very helpful.

This place is a gem hidden on a side of the mountain! The place is very nice and confortable. It was clean with the beautiful mountain view. You must follow the directions that they give you as GPS will get you lost. Owners make you feel welcome with small details like a complementary wine and coffee. We'll come back soon!

Nice Cabin with gorgeous views

Very nice cabin, clean and has a beautiful views; it is located in a quiet area. We enjoyed the breakfast every morning watching the town and the mountains and also enjoyed the hot tub at the end of the day. When we arrived, we couldn’t find the place because we followed the gps, my advice is to put as a final destination “Soco Rd and Dogwood Rd” from there follow carefully the directions you will get from Joel, the owner, he was very kind, helpful and answered all my phone calls. We had a very good time.

About the host

Hosted by Joel S. Wallace

Host profile image
I am a native of Laurel, MS and have lived in Santa Rosa beach, FL since 1983 where I met my lovely wife. My wife and I found this private hideaway while on a business trip and fell in love with this area. We are both blessed and honored to be able to share this slice of paradise with you all.

Why they chose this property

We live in a tourist town in Florida and it always seemed like we were on a treadmill. When we first visited Maggie Valley we felt as though time stood still and the world moved by at a slower pace. It was just the medicine we were looking for to escape the rat race and re discover God's creations and the simple life.

What makes this property unique

I grew up on a large farm and always enjoyed being in the woods surrounded by nature. This was the perfect spot away from it all. Nature is everywhere around this cabin and if you have an adventurous spirit you will always find a path less traveled here.
