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!

We had the most wonderful time with our family of children age 1 through 13. The description of the house was very accurate. The home was so beautiful and the view was to die for. The home was easy to get to and close to town but the views were EPIC. Home was super clean and we LOVED our stay so much. We will definitely be back as soon as we can!

This property was amazing! We had 11 women staying for a week and this house had everything we needed! The kitchen was very well stocked. The view is spectacular! The host is very responsive (and I had many questions!) and answered all my questions quickly. He even went back to the property after we left to look for an item we thought was left behind. Very conveniently located and is only about 5 mins up the mountain from Hwy 19 that runs through Maggie Valley. Lots of room to park (we had 6 vehicles)! There is an entire coffee area on the lower level complete with its own mini fridge so those guests didn’t have to go upstairs to fix their morning coffee. The house is perfect for a big family gathering or 3-4 couples spending time sightseeing or just relaxing!

Perfect Family Getaway!

The Wren's Nest was absolutely beautiful!! The view from the back deck was picturesque, the house was immaculate and there was plenty of room for the 11 of us. It was very well stocked with all your basic needs plus some! I definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for that relaxing vacation they've been yearning for.

Lovely place with spectacular views!

Absolutely beautiful place with amazing views! The temperature was so comfortable compared to Louisiana in June, a great respite from the heat at home. The creek down the road was a huge hit with our kids and dogs. The house was big enough for us to spread out in with all 11 members of our family. Thanks so much for a wonderful vacation!

This place has the most spectacular views in autumn!!! My husband and I came here for a much needed fall respite and boy did it deliver and then some!!! This home is absolutely welcoming, comfortable and beautiful in every way… we enjoyed every second we were here, as well as the tapestry of fall colors amongst the mountains… felt like a King and Queen on top the mountain. Would love to bring our family back next time.

Perfect house! Breathtaking view!

This house was perfect for our ski trip to Maggie Valley. The lay out worked extremely well for 2 families. The kitchen is well stocked and the pots and pans were updated and clean. The ski slope is literally only a 5 min drive which made our commutes very smooth. The house truly had everything we needed. The bonus room was a pleasant surprise as well. Thank you for a wonderful trip and precious memories. And the managing company was fabulous as well.

Beautiful home, stunning views

The pictures are accurate. This home is beautiful, and the views really are unbelievable. We spent most of our time on the top floor enjoying the view from there. All of the seating is cozy and the beds were comfortable. One note to future guests - when they tell you to arrive during daylight, you really should. Our schedule did not allow for that, and it was terrifying trying to drive through the dark and fog up the steep, winding road to this house. The house was not lit at all and we struggled with getting parked and into the home. It was much easier the next day, and we did not have that same intense fog again during our stay.

Ski Trip Getaway

The house was a great layout for our family as it had plenty of bedrooms and space to accommodate us, our three children, and my in-laws. However, the heating of the house was off. The living spaces were extremely cold and the bedrooms would get very hot or very cold if you closed the doors. The location of the house was great as we were there to ski at Cattaloochee. One thing that should be considered when renting this is that it comes with a long list of checkout procedures and they will charge you if you leave any trash at the home. There are no large trash cans to put trash bags into so you have to drive it directly to the dump. Unfortunately, the dump was not open on the day we checked out so we ended up having to eat the cost of 5 per bag left.

Great house. The house is far up the mountain which we loved because we had uninterrupted views and no bright lights at night. We’ll definitely stay here again if back in MV. Fit 6 adults 5 kids well with bonus room.

Memorable stay

Our family of 5 (all adults) celebrated a special occasion at this special place. The patio and balconies were amazing and we enjoyed the quiet and secluded environment. We made good use of the hot tub and shuffleboard table at nights. The evenings were chilly, so the firepit and fireplace also came in very handy! This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay... all a short drive to the Smoky Mountains. The owner was also very responsive with our questions and needs, so top notch in our book. Would love the opportunity to stay here again.
