    Absolutely perfect! This cozy cabin was the serene escape we needed. Waking up to the sound of birds and the view was magical. Everything was spotless, well-stocked (loved the Popcorn!), and the fireplace made for cozy evenings. Hosts were incredibly helpful, and the location offered privacy. Highly recommend for a true mountain recharge!

    Everything was great except we couldn’t get the dishwasher to work or lock the door when we checked out. And we had trouble with the internet. Still, great time and comfortable accommodations.

    We enjoyed a wonderful trip to Maggie Valley over the New Years. We had family traveling from Illinois, Florida and NC. It was a great place for us all to meet. The house was a wonderful size, plenty of room for people to spread out our gather together. Everything at the house worked just as it should, including the hot tub. Plus there are beautiful views from the whole house. It was just what we needed.

    We had a mini family (siblings) reunion with enough space for each family to be on their own floor. Plenty of amenities to cook for large groups, spread out to play games and relax. With great dining and sights to see within a reasonable driving distance. We’re definitely considering coming back to this property again in the future.

    I will bear is an absolutely lovely property, prettier than the pictures! The appointments and furniture are all high-quality. Ditto for the sheets and towels. There are plenty of cleaning supplies, extra toilet paper, towels, and laundry detergent. Things I usually bring to every VRBO, but now we’re in this instance!). We really enjoyed our stay
