What's nearby

  • An incredible motorcycle museum! I found out about the place after seeing it on various tv shows, American Pickers, Chasing Classic Cars, and Jay Leno's Garage, included. Once you get inside, you really don't know how you are going to take it all in. It is huge! All of the motorcycles run and during our visit, the curator was starting and taking random bikes out for a spin. A must see!

A real nice cabin along the creek side. The creek sounds are very relaxing sitting out on the back porch. The fall colors make it even more beautiful driving the BR Parkway

Thank you for a wonderful stay. The cabin is beautiful, and the kids loved the space and the outdoor firepit. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, and the house was very clean. I very much appreciated how good the hosts were at communication before our trip. Thank you for including the kid toys and games, it was fun during the rainy days! Would stay again!

What an amazing place to stay. This is the Cleanest VRBO that we’ve ever stayed in. Also the best stock kitchen and the best towels. The location is so convenient to everything but really secluded. Also Great communication with the owner. I can’t come up with a negative. We can’t wait to stay again.

Great Winter Getaway

Loved the cabin. Great location close to the ski resort but far enough away from the main busy roads. The driveway had been shoveled and was perfectly dry when we showed up even though there was a lot of snow on the ground.I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home

Very nice, clean home and area. We really enjoyed our stay. If I would offer any type of improvement ideas I’d recommend a leaf blower or at least a broom to be accessible during the fall season to remove the substantial amount of leaves on the driveway and on the porches around the home.

Beautiful and clean cabin. Sitting creek side to enjoy nature was one of the best features. Of note: although the listing states this rental has three bedrooms, there are only 2 bedrooms and a sleeper sofa which may be an issue for some.

Beautiful weekend with the fam in Maggie Valley

We absolutely loved this house and our stay here! The host is very responsive and helpful. Lots of games for my nephew to play. Me and him had a blast playing in the creek behind the house. We had dinner at the beautiful table downstairs one night while listening to the creek and it was amazing. Also did s’mores in the fire pit our last night. House is so cozy and welcoming and with all the activities to do, you won’t get bored!

Enjoyed our stay! Lovely creek in back of property that’s easily accessible for kids to play in. Conveniently located off of the main road inside of a neighborhood. Wonderfully clean and great communication with property managers when there were snafus. Tip: key codes to enter confused us. Open the screen door to get to the one you need.
