About this property

MOUNTAIN JOY COTTAGES #5 - STARS AND STRIPES

Mountain Joy Cottage #5, Stars and Stripes, is named for the rich Southern heritage that is has experienced in its years. Another of our historic cottages, this four bedroom was built in the early 1800's and was used as a Confederate Army Hospital while in Atlanta, GA. It was moved to Mountain Joy Cottages sometime around 1984. The original logs are exposed in the living room as well as the two downstairs bedrooms giving this cottage a real log cabin feel.

Originally the homestead of Maggie Setzer, for whom Maggie Valley was named, the land that Mountain Joy sits is a special place. You will become enchanted with it’s mountain charm, family atmosphere and character. We offer all the modern conveniences you would expect with the year-round access and seclusion that very few can offer.

Enjoy the peaceful country setting of our cottages. We have one, two and four bedroom cottages all equipped with wood burning fireplaces, cable TV, internet and kitchens ready to cook a home made meal. Outside the porches have rocking chairs so you can enjoy your morning coffee or enjoy the sunset on the mountains in the evening. Our glass enclosed outdoor pool (seasonal) offers a delightful place to relax.

Mountain Joy Cottages are centrally located in the heart of Maggie Valley just one block up Setzer Cove Road with easy access to all of the area attractions. We are just minutes off of the Scenic Blue Ridge Parkway and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The area is loaded with craft, antique and gift shops. The great outdoors offers horseback riding, golf on area mountain courses, trout fishing in streams, white water rafting and scenic drives. Snow skiing and tubing is available for the entire family at Cataloochee Ski Area. Nightlife includes everything from Jazz to Bluegrass, clogging or dinner entertainment. Our cottages are just a short drive to the Great Smoky Mountain Railway, Asheville and The Biltmore Estate, Cherokee and the Indian Reservation and Harrah’s Casino and historic downtown Waynesville.

Whatever the season, Mountain Joy Cottages and the Great Smokies have something very special to offer. From the wildflowers of spring, to the blaze of colors in the fall or the serenity of winter, come visit and make lasting memories at Mountain Joy Cottages.

Stayed in cabin 5

My group and I enjoyed our stay in Maggie Valley. The cabin was very welcoming and comfortable. The only think I would have liked to see, is dish soap and maybe some other kitchen staples. Other than that, it was fantastic

Loved this property. Easy to access, comfy beds and up close view of elk in our front yard was really exciting. The only thing I would recommend is electrical outlets and fans in the bathrooms and shower caddy in the downstairs bathroom.

Not for Me

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I do realize that this is a very old house, however, it is very close quarters. The floors were dirty when we arrived. Some of the towels looked used. We had to call the property owner for someone to come clean, which she did, but nothing more than sweep the floors. They were no better when she left than when she arrived. The staircase in this cabin is very steep and narrow. There were no pictures of the staircase in the listing. The downstairs bathroom floor was very soft, which made of have to use the upstairs shower. This house made me feel claustrophobic. This house definitely needs some upgrades.
