MOUNTAIN JOY COTTAGES #5 - STARS AND STRIPES

The cottage was very nice but had cobwebs and spider webs throughout. The floors were dirty as well.

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.

Kitchen supplies minimal. Non functioning coffee maker. Visiting Elk was fantastic experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family has been vacationing in Maggie Valley for 11 years no- every August for my Dads birthday. Cabin 5 was the first cabin we every rented. Our travel group has grown since that first trip, so we have had to rent larger cabins and multiple cabins for our growing family and friends that have joined us. Mountain Joy, under the rental management of Carolina Vacation rentals is the best example of top notch customer service EVER. We actually rented with another company when Mr. Sid and his amazing crew were no longer covering Mountain Joy. So glad that Carolina Vacations are back covering this property.

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

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.

The big kitchen table was perfect for board games and playing cards. The TV was a little disappointing there was hardly any channels to watch. Loved the rocking chairs on the front porch. Good stay we will come again.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 6 adults in the cabin. The living area was spacious with a great fireplace and large tv. Downstairs bedrooms were very small with no closets. Upstairs bedrooms were more spacious but the shower in the bathroom was a challenge for the tall ones in our group. Grounds and porch were very nice. We had Elk pass through the cabin area right in front of us. The cleanliness left a lot to be desired. When we entered for the first time a dirty rag was on the table. Dirty socks were found in one of the beds. The return vent and fans blades hadn’t been dusted in months. We found a dog leash and diaper in the couch cushions when we were checking to make sure nothing was left behind. Location was great and we enjoyed our time together. Our two favorite places to eat were Joey’s Pancakes right down the hill and Haywood BBQ in Waynesville.

Can’t wait to come back over the summer.
