"This cabin was exactly what we were looking for in a mountain stay. The listing description was spot-on, and the pictures did a great job capturing the feel of the space. It was clean, cozy, and well-maintained. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like complimentary toiletries and essentials such as shampoo, soap, dishwashing liquid, paper towels, and even laundry detergent!

Maggie Valley Cabin off the Blue Ridge Pkwy.
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (31)
"If you looked up “cozy” in the dictionary, you’d see a picture of this cabin. It’s perfect for one or two people looking to run away from the world for a couple of days. What you miss in the amenities of a hotel, you make up for in privacy and natural beauty. There are cabins on either side of you but your front yard and back yard are wooded mountainsides. We were there in July while the trees were green and I bet it’s even more beautiful in the fall. The cabin was spotless and well-maintained....
