An office area can be setup for a $50 fee that includes dual monitors, keyboard, mouse, mouse pad, office chair and full use of the stand up desk. The living room has a wood burning fireplace and a wall of windows to view the mountains. Enjoy the large gourmet kitchen with plenty of seating at the breakfast bar and dining table. The outdoor living space has a large wrap around porch with hot tub, gas grill, dinning table and rockers.

AREA: Hootie Owl House is centrally located in Maggie Valley, with spectacular year round views. Less than ten minutes up Forest Dr offers easy access to area attractions.
We are just minutes off of the Scenic Blue Ridge Parkway and 30 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Enjoy popular attractions like the Biltmore House and Gardens, Blue Ridge Parkway, Harrahs casino, numerous championship golf courses, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, trout fishing...and much more. Antique lovers will be able to shop to your heart's content! Take a ride on the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad and visit the National Park. View the elk at Cataloochee Valley or ski there during the winter. We have excellent dining and breweries in Maggie Valley, Waynesville, and nearby Asheville. You will not be disappointed in the cuisine. Enjoy a day in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area. Dollywood is an hour and a half from our Maggie Valley cabin.

PLEASE NOTE: Our cabin is located in the Maggie Overlook neighborhood which consists of a mile of gravel/dirt roads on a mountain ridge. The roads have lots of switch backs and a few steep drop offs in the sides. Big mountain views = mountain
roads so please be prepared! We highly recommend AWD for stays May-October.
4WD is REQUIRED for stays November-April due to the potential for snowy/icy roads. It is the guests responsibility to monitor the weather and have a vehicle capable of accessing the cabin. No refunds will be issued due to having the improper vehicle type for accessing the cabin during your stay.
Snow removal is not included but can be added.

SECURITY: We have a security camera that overlooks the driveway and the valley only.

PETS: Two dogs under 20 pounds. $100 fee for each dog. You must send pictures for pet approval. Pets are not to be left unattended.

HOT TUB: The hot tub has to withstand freezing and melting temperatures in the mountain climate and when something breaks it may take several days to get parts or technicians. Because of this our liability is limited to 10% of your nightly rate should anything fail with the hot tub equipment and we're unable to repair it within 24 hours. Our hot tub is cleaned and serviced between guests. Anything can happen in between. So let us know if you need an extra service.

Please take trash to the drop off throughout your stay:
Haywood County Solid Waste Convenience Center
30 Mauney Cove Rd, Waynesville, NC 28786
Only two bags may be left at the cabin on check out day.
A $5.00 fee will be charged for each additional bag.

This is the cabin you want

If you’re scrolling through VRBO Maggie Valley cabins trying find the perfect one, STOP. This the cabin you want to rent! The cabin was very well appointed, decorated beautifully, and the views were spectacular. The photos and disciplining in the listing is 100% spot on. My wife and I have stayed at several Maggie Valley cabins over the years. Hottie Owl cabin is the only one that we’ll consider when we return next year and the years to come.

Mountain Retreat

We enjoyed our week in Maggy Valley in the Hootie Owl House. The cabin was clean and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed to buy groceries and make meals at home. The drive up was scary the first time, but after that we just took it slow and had no issues. My son and husband enjoyed the hot tub and making fires. We went tubing at Tube World down in town and ate pizza and Italian at Frankie’s on NYE.

Wonderful

What a pretty "cabin"! It had everything we could possibly need and thoughtful touches we really appreciated. Loved the location of 40 minutes to Biltmore, middle of Smokies, 10 minites to Blue Ridge Parkway and Great Smokey Mountains National Park, and drive to Dollywood etc. Perfect!

Relaxing mountain getaway with amazing views

We had a wonderful stay at the hootie owl. The property was clean, comfortable, and had the most amazing views. We really enjoyed relaxing on the porch in the rockers and hot tub. There was ample firewood for the cool evenings and everything we needed to cook a nice quiet meal at home. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

Private Retreat

The cabin is beautiful and true to what is pictured. It was private and quiet, and the view did not disappoint. Gail was easily accessible and quick to respond. It's a terrific location, too. There are lots of options for hiking and scenic drives. It's also close to a variety of places to shop and eat. Would absolutely stay again!

Restful getaway

The cabin is beautifully situated and just as described. Well appointed with very little left to chance! The homeowner was available for any and all questions. We truly enjoyed our stay. As with other reviews, the drive up to the cabin is not for the faint of heart, but once we did it a couple of times we were fine! Very restful and peaceful with stunning views.

Fireworks in the Valley

Hootie Owl House is a beautiful home that was immaculate. The view of Maggie Valley is beautiful, especially looking down on the fireworks on 4th of July. Our family enjoyed the grill, outside dining table, rocking chairs and hot tub on the porch over looking the mountains. Communincation with Gail, the owner, was easy, clear and immediate. We would love to stay again.

Dog Friendly, Cozy Cabin, Breathtaking Views with Gorgeous Sunsets!

We really enjoyed our stay at Hootie Owl House! We spent a week hiking around, exploring the area with our dogs and kids. The cabin had everything we needed. There is a great fireplace, and the reclining couches in the great room are very comfy. We enjoyed rocking on the porch watching the sun set over the mountains. The drive to the cabin was not difficult in summer. We had a AWD minivan that had no trouble getting there. All in all, we had a wonderful stay! Hope to be back!

Cozy perfection

This was such an amazing place to hide away and spend some quality time with each other for our 18th anniversary. This cabin was so cozy, provided comfortable furnishings, and was in the most beautiful location. There wasn't anything more we could have asked for and we will definitely return again on another trip up to the mountains. We got a little turned around on our way up the first day getting there. The hosts answered our call right away and walked us through our mistaken turn. This place definitely deserves its 5 star rating!

Top 5 private cabin

We rent a cabin in the Maggie Valley area 2 or 3 times a year and I can say this cabin was amazing! In fact, we rated it in our top 5 overall favorite cabins since we started coming up in 2015! There are so many great things about this cabin. We really enjoyed the privacy and view. We really found it relaxing without all the noise and distractions. We also really appreciated that they emptied and cleaned the hot tub right before we got there. Really the entire cabin was extremely clean. I’d really like to comment on whether the host was helpful but I don’t know because everything was so well set up that I never contacted them! We will definitely be booking this cabin again!

Epic views and a beautiful cabin

My family and I stayed for a week at Hootie Owl and loved every minute. The cabin was clean and had every amenity that we needed. The beds were cozy and the internet fast. Teens were happy, dad was happy and me too! Kitchen and grill were great for cooking up whatever meal we needed. The hot tub was a great way to end the day after hiking the mountains. You can even see the valley from the hot tub! The view is beyond gorgeous. Best we've ever seen in the mountains. Maggie Valley is very close to many places and so it was easy to get to the grocery store, eating out, shopping, whatever we wanted to do. Definitely recommend staying here. The owners are quick to respond and answer any questions you might have.

Host profile image
We purchased this log cabin in the fall of 2021. We hope to use it for our retirement some day.

Why they chose this property

This is a newer log cabin in excellent shape. We walked in and were wowed by it. The view is amazing and the porch is 60 by 10 feet offering a great outdoor living space. It also has an out building that we plan to turn into a guest house.

What makes this property unique

The builder and previous owner used top of the line materials and fixtures throughout the house.
