Elk Cabin

Description:

Cozy, convenient, and creek side – potentially the three best words in a vacation rental description you can hear and that’s exactly what you will find at Elk Cabin.  This little bit of heaven on Jonathan Creek is the perfect spot for just two.  Sitting directly off US 19 and only steps away from Maggie Valley, this small but mighty cabin is great for any type of vacation travel.

Amenities:

Enjoy taking in the view from the covered deck looking directly out onto beautiful Jonathan Creek. A picnic table and camp style charcoal grill will allow you to eat under the stars or rock your night away in the glider swing overlooking the creek. Although there is another home adjacent to this property, a privacy fence separates the two areas.

A common kitchen, dining room and living space opens to the covered deck, convenient for going from kitchen to outdoor living. Enjoy the overstuffed reclining couch with its own USB port, perfect for gaming or watching TV.  A separate firepit with chairs, high speed internet and Wi-Fi, community firepit, and private “She-Shed” containing a washer / dryer laundry area round out this home away from home.

Sleeping:

This home has one queen bedroom and bath with tub/shower combination as well as flat screen cable TV’s in both the living area and bedroom.

Driving to Property:

Approach to this home is right off of US 19 and is perfect for those traveling by motorcycle or pulling a trailer as it has ample parking for truck and trailer.   Plus, there’s perfect ingress, hard to come by in these mountain homes.    The turnoff for the home is a flat fully paved state road and is the main road leading into Maggie Valley.  Four-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and/or chains may be required during any type of snow or ice event on the roads surrounding the area.

This is a dog friendly property for one dog 30 pounds or less.  It is the guest’s responsibility to contact the property manager at Maggie Mountain Vacations as there is an additional non-refundable per pet fee, not included in the base rent.  Unauthorized pets on property will incur a $300 per pet penalty.
