We had a great family time together. The area hiking is top tier. Your home was very comfortable. The beds are comfy as can be. We loved loved the view porch. Everything was easy. It was a true respite away from home. Thank you.

The views from this VRBO are great. The deck is nice. Maggie Valley is a lovely part of America. The drive up the driveway is fine, we have a large SUV and it fit. Don’t worry about that. The property managers are responsive and helpful. However, this is an old home that has not been updated in decades. The couch and beds and chairs are uncomfortable and it is not as clean as it could be. The floors need refinishing, the kitchen is tiny and only one setting on the washing machine can be used. The beds, which are at least 20 years old, have added pillow tops to make them more comfortable but they are not comfortable. All pillows should be replaced. It’s also a small house. You have to pack out your trash, strip the beds, and start a load of towels before you leave. I’m not sure why the cleaning fee is 200. The house is maybe 1800 sq. ft. There is also another 60 cleaning fee for the hot tub and another 56 fee (I don’t know what that is for). We didn’t have password protected WiFi for the first four days of our stay because the owner was in Europe and the property management company could not get in touch with them to password protect it. I realize some people do not care about that. But you should. No one should connect to public WiFi. I realize this is not a great review. And possibly this rental house is not geared toward me. The whole experience fell flat.
