Really great experience!
Thank you for your hospitality and sharing your cabin with us. Really great time and easy to use appliances/hottub etc. Dog friendly. Not cat friendly. Close to town, and more privacy then expected.

Hurricane getaway
Nice cabin in a great location. Great place to relax. Sit on the porch or in the hot tub with the relaxing sound of the nearby creek.Hurricane Heleene hit Maggie Valley. Heleene and Milton both hit my house. Madeline the host was awesome keeping me informed on the conditions in Maggie Valley. When we saw the business asking for people to return we kept our reservation and had a great stay. Everyone in Maggie Valley were incredibly nice.

Peace and quiet a minute from Maggie Valley.
If you're looking for peace and quiet and a clean comfortable cabin just a minute from Maggie Valley ; this is the place for you! We enjoyed a peaceful week ; ending each day with a soak in the hot tub. We started each day out on the balcony porch drinking coffee and watching the hummingbirds and listening to the baby birds cheap in their nest.

NO PRIVACY
The cabin was beautiful however the owner will come by every single day to “check” the hot tub and while there peep in the blinds etc. There is never any privacy as she is always around or at the other two cabins, OR her own home that is right above this one -stalking everything you do. We never got to enjoy the hot tub due to the privacy issue. There are also notes and instructions all over the cabin threatening you of your deposit if you dont do every little thing her way. There is also a binder with instructions this would have been sufficient. The texting and privacy issues started on our 2nd day there, I hate to inform I’ve been home for 4 days and the issues with this owner still hasn’t stopped!! I have now been charged $100 possibly more for things I’m being blamed for that are NOT true. She says our dog scratched a door when our dog was in a crate the entire time! I wouldn’t be surprised if she didn’t have cameras. Loved the cabin and Maggie valley area- just not happy with our our trip was ruined by the host/owner. We did have two extra people which I admitted to but she has also come up with a whole list of none sense. When will the harrassment end?! She even sent me pictures of our dogs poop 😳 and was upset that we didn’t pick up after her when it was never stated we should pick up poop out of the gravel or grass. I could go on and on..just beware!

Thanksgiving Visit
Clean, quiet, and restful. Good sleeping. The kitchen was not equipped for cooking easily. Prior rentals have had more equipment. Wish there were a way "non-tubbers" did not have to pay for something we do not use at all--maybe a keyed lock that only users pay for?? The place was nice and comfortable, and the hostess very accessible.

A nice, snug, cabin with a quiet beautiful setting. Just what my wife and I and son were looking for as a get away place. Could have used a king bed, but I quibble! All was as advertised. Very pleasant although the Maggie Valley dining options were somewhat limited. But it was a getaway after all!

Clean, Cozy, Convienent
The cabin was very clean with beautiful surroundings. The creek and fire pit area is pretty enough to be on a post card. I was worried it would be a little small for my family of four with our children being 13 and 15, but it was perfect! I woke up early every morning to sit on the deck and watch the two hummingbirds battle for the feeder. We fell asleep every night listening to the creek. We will miss the tranquility of the property for a long time! Communication with owner was easy, beds were comfy, and both bedrooms have an attached bath (I didn't realize that from the pictures). We look forward to coming back here again!

Clean and very well maintained
10/10 would love to stay again. This is not a luxury cabin but was very cozy, super clean and well maintained. Everything was labeled with how to use instructions. The appliances were all in great condition and the kitchen was very well stocked. You can hear the creek when in the porch and it so soothing. Only complaint is that to avoid a 100 charge we had to bring our last bag of trash all the way back home with us. We could find a place between NC and GA to dump it.

About the host

Hosted by Madeleine Kenowski

Host profile image
Hello there and welcome to my cabins. I was born in Lausanne Switzerland and after spending a few years in Wisconsin and Florida, I realized how much I missed the Alps. My husband and I bought this beautiful piece of property a few years back, built our home and three cabins. This is not a rental complex all cabins are very private.

Why they chose this property

The setting of my cabins is unlike many others. Not only will you be closed to town but you will also have the privacy you are looking for. I am always around to take care of what ever needs you might have and you will not have to rely on a property manager.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, sound of the Johnson Branch Creek. Cabins well taken care of. So peaceful, you will get the rest you are looking for.
