About this property

Looking to get away to the mountains with your family? Timber Hollow is the perfect choice for large families, or groups, traveling together!

Our custom log cabin sits on a private 65 acre buffalo ranch. Enjoy viewing our buffalo when you drive in or stop by in the morning at feeding time! This cabin is nestled in the woods & has plenty of space for families traveling together.
So, whether you are looking to hit the slopes at Cataloochee Ski Resort in Maggie Valley (only 12 miles away) or visit the Biltmore Estate in Asheville (only 30 minutes), there is plenty for everyone to do in The Great Smoky Mountains!

Timber Hollow is ideal for large families vacationing together because we have 2 master suites as well as a 2nd kitchen downstairs! You can store extra food in the downstairs fridge!

Also, rest assured the children will be well entertained downstairs in the game room where we have a pool table & ping pong. There is a foosball table in the loft. Also enjoy an evening in our 6-8 person hot tub out back!

Children will love the hike through the woods to the play area, The BC Corral! This custom designed area has everything from swings, zip line, slides, teeter totter, cargo nets, rock wall & even a horse shoe pit for the adults! The kids will love it here!

If you are looking for a quiet 'get away from it all' retreat, this is it! Enjoy long hikes on the property, fishing on the Pigeon River (within walking distance from the log cabin) or take a trip into town to do some shopping or antiquing.

We are pet friendly, size doesn't matter!

50th birthday celebration

We had a group of 8 and 2 dogs. The cabin was spacious with privacy for multiple couples. Beds were comfortable. Property was beautiful. We enjoyed visiting the animals and watching the bison feeding. Hiking around the property was a great workout. The pool table and hot tub was our favorite. Cheryl and her family were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely visit again.

Buffalo and Goats

Our family enjoyed our stay at Timber Hollow. The little ones enjoyed the Buffalo and feeding the goats. The playground was a bit challenging to get to, but we found it.

Great Time

Pretty far drive from Asheville. It’s more convenient to travel to Waynesville, which is still a 16 to 18 minute drive. It is certainly remote. All that to say, if you are looking for remote, this is it! Nice family owned business. Cool activities for kids 13 and under.

Girlfriend annual trip

Enjoyed the proximity to Asheville and really enjoyed Waynesville. House was clean and amenities were appreciated such as spices, s’more ingredients (need to bring sticks) towels including extras for the hot tub. (need to bring bar soap). Enjoyed watching the bison feeding. Good communication, nice, large rooms. Great experience for our annual girls trip!

Amazing stay at Timber Hollow, Buffalo Creek!

The Timber Hollow cabin was perfect for family of 8. Kids loved the animals, hot tub, and having a pool table in the cabin. Easy walk to river for kids to wade and skip rocks. Very clean and furnished cabin. Was convenient to golf, hiking and white water rafting. Grilled burgers and made s’mores by the fire pit. The driveway is a challenge the first time without AWD but after the first time, it was no problem! Highly recommend!!

Just What We Needed!

Timber Hallow at Buffalo Creek Vacations was absolutely the perfect getaway for our family! From the bison viewing/feeding to the friendly llamas and hungry goats, to a beautifully cozy cabin with a pool table, foosball, and hot tub - this listing had it all! Highly recommended if you are looking for a secluded vacation spot with onsite activities.

Absolutely Awesome

Our kids and grandkids stayed on the property for 3 nights and never left except to go to the grocery store. Petted and feed animals, hiked, went exploring, spent a couple of hours at a cool playground, and went to game room a couple of time. At the cabin we shot pool, played Foosball, enjoyed the hot tub, charcoal grilled some of our food, built a campfire, and made smores. Staff was super friendly and went out of their way for our family. To top it off, it snowed for about 24 hours while we were there. Imagine enjoying a campfire and a hot tub while it's snowing. Honestly an absolute awesome stay.

Family Getaway

This weekend getaway was just what we needed as a family, all 4 generations of us! It was private and secluded, yet offered some unique experiences such as seeing bison, several farm animals, and tons of llamas. There was a custom built playground the kids loved too. We enjoyed fun with the games and the hot tub at night. Communication was great with staff and the cabin was just what we thought it would be, meaning the description and what we needed to bring was accurate. And to top it off, we even got snow while there! Highly recommend!

Family Friendly Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Buffalo Creek. We had 3 kids and 6 adults and we all had a great time. My son had a blast riding the miniature horse and feeding the goats. We also all loved getting to watch the Bison feeding. Everything was organized and communicated well. We would recommend 4 wheel drive to get to the property; however, the staff went above and beyond and drove our parents' Camry up the hill. Thank you so much for a great vacation!

2 family spring break

Overall we had a great time despite a lot of nearby attractions closing due to some virus. Plenty of room for 2 families with 9 total people. Everyone loved the animals on the property. The only “issues” we had were our fwd Pilot couldn’t make it up the driveway due to loose soft gravel and there wasn’t a ping pong table that was pictured. Would definitely recommend.

Timber Hollow

Beautiful location and accommodations are great! Quaint log house is well outfitted with furnishings and kitchen utensils. Bring your own bathroom and shower supplies. Only real negative is no trash dumpster on site. You have to take your own trash to the "dump" on your way to town or live with it in the unit. Overall, a great choice. Be sure to watch the Bison feeding! Educational and entertaining. P.S. They are BIG!

A great place to stay for a family retreat for kids of all ages!

The cabin that sleeps 8-10 was spacious, warm and very functional for our retreat with friends and family. The Bison herd and other animals added to the fun. The caboose and fabulous train layout also added to the experience. Close to hiking and wonderful views and cute town of Waynesville. Would recommend especially with kids or if you have an interest in trains and the American Bison. The lane to our cabin needed a little grading after Florence came through NC.

Four Generations Together at Timber Hollow

Our four generations - from 7 months to 73 years old - had a wonderful time in Timber Hollow! Every day was special, beginning with the daily bison feeding at the end of our driveway, followed by visits to the goats, donkey, horses, llamas, and alpacas. Then back up to our beautiful home that had everything we needed for our two weeks' getaway. We so enjoyed everything - the hot tub, the large bedrooms, the fully stocked kitchen, grilling out - the firepit - it was all perfect. And it was in the best location - close to Maggie Valley and Waynesville. We hope to return soon!

Beautiful cabin, fully equipped in a nice area

The cabin was great. Master on top level, two bedrooms on common level and full mini suite in bottom level. Perfect for couples traveling together with or without kids. Also works well for adult children which was our case. Everyone had their own space. Plenty to do, close to Waynesville and Maggie Valley. If you want to just stay around the cabin. It’s on a Bison farm and it’s a nice walk around the property to see lamas, mini horses, goats, etc. Everyone was very nice

About the host

Hosted by Cheryl Hillis

My brothers & my husband had shared a vision of expanding my fathers buffalo ranch when additional property became available to purchase. With all our knowledge & experiences combine we have built 4 log homes & have been renting them out since 2004. All the furniture in this cabin has been handmade by the wood on the property! Even the covered wagon bed, that was custom built my my father. Once my husband retires from the US Army in about 8 yrs our dream will be to build our log cabin on the property & be more hands on. God has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams. We hope you love the mountains like we have all come to love being transplants from a very flat NY!

What makes this property unique

While staying at Timber Hollow we feel you will really enjoy the peace & tranquility of being secluded on 65 acres. So many of our previous guest have wrote back & told us they had all these plans to sight see but then just loved hanging out in the cabin together enjoying the big game room & the children all love the uniquely designed playground as well as seeing the miniature horse, buffalo, goats & llamas.
