Turning point cabin was the perfect setting for a little weekend getaway! Debbie and Jeff had a lot of helpful information on the area and were super responsive with any questions or concerns we had. The cabin itself was beautiful and offered panoramic views! The kitchen was stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need. My group took advantage of the board game collection. It was the perfect way to end the night after a day of skiing at Cataloochee, which is just a quick drive away. All in all, we were very happy with our stay and would come back in a heartbeat!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this cozy cabin in Maggie Valley, and it was an unforgettable fall retreat. The views were absolutely stunning, with vibrant autumn foliage all around, making every glance outside a real treat. The cabin was well-maintained and thoughtfully decorated, capturing that rustic charm while providing all the modern comforts.The kitchen was a standout feature — fully equipped with everything you’d need for a home-cooked meal. From high-quality cookware to all the necessary utensils, it felt like cooking at home, but with a view of the mountains! It was great for cozy breakfasts, with plenty of space to prepare meals if you wanted to stay in.The cabin’s location was perfect, nestled in a quiet area but still close to nearby trails and attractions in Maggie Valley. Whether you’re looking to explore the Great Smoky Mountains, enjoy local restaurants, or just relax by the fireplace, this cabin offers the best of both relaxation and adventure. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking a peaceful mountain escape, especially in the beautiful fall season!

Best cabin ever. Hosts are kind, engaged, and very welcoming. Accommodations are very comfortable and pristine. There is no better view off the deck or out the bedroom window. If you can't find what you need here, you don't need it.

From the moment we walked in the door seeing the whimsical mud room and an amazing country kitchen around the bend, we were in love with Turning Point! The views are breathtaking. Morning coffee on the covered porch. Wine and cheese on the lower deck spilling over to the fire pit area. Games and puzzles on the massive great room table. Comfy beds and incredible bathrooms - one with a window IN the shower! Details, details, delightful details. The Maggie Valley area near Waynesville has such terrific eateries, breweries, hikes, waterfalls, shops andddd many great locations to enjoy sunsets! The Blue Ridge Parkway is very accessible. The sunrises were spectacular from the loft and the covered porch of Turning Point. We will be back!
