My cabin offers everything that you will need; private Hot Tub, 40" Smart TVS with Roku devices, central air and heat, unique setting, privacy, and peace. The Johnson Branch cabin is 1 mile from the Valley, restaurants, gift shops and bars at an altitude of 3200 feet. The cabin is tastefully decorated with antiques.

Hurricane getaway

Nice cabin in a great location. Great place to relax. Sit on the porch or in the hot tub with the relaxing sound of the nearby creek.Hurricane Heleene hit Maggie Valley. Heleene and Milton both hit my house. Madeline the host was awesome keeping me informed on the conditions in Maggie Valley. When we saw the business asking for people to return we kept our reservation and had a great stay. Everyone in Maggie Valley were incredibly nice.

Peace and quiet a minute from Maggie Valley.

If you're looking for peace and quiet and a clean comfortable cabin just a minute from Maggie Valley ; this is the place for you! We enjoyed a peaceful week ; ending each day with a soak in the hot tub. We started each day out on the balcony porch drinking coffee and watching the hummingbirds and listening to the baby birds cheap in their nest.

The property was exactly as depicted in the pictures. The cabin was very clean and well kept. Our dog was allowed to come and she enjoyed running around in the yard all day. Very close to Cataloochee Ski Resort and only 30-45 min away from Harrahs and Asheville. Loved this place.

A nice, snug, cabin with a quiet beautiful setting. Just what my wife and I and son were looking for as a get away place. Could have used a king bed, but I quibble! All was as advertised. Very pleasant although the Maggie Valley dining options were somewhat limited. But it was a getaway after all!

Week end Getaway

We arrived at 9:00 pm with the lights on for us, and fresh poppy seed cake waiting for us. Such a cozy cabin. We didn’t get to use the fire pit like I was hoping for as it just wasn’t convenient for us, time wise. The hot tub was great on the deck, and even got to watch some baby birds in their nest. The whole experience felt like home. We will definitely do it again.

About the host

Hosted by Madeleine Kenowski

Host profile image
Hello there and welcome to my cabins. I was born in Lausanne Switzerland and after spending a few years in Wisconsin and Florida, I realized how much I missed the Alps. My husband and I bought this beautiful piece of property a few years back, built our home and three cabins. This is not a rental complex all cabins are very private.

Why they chose this property

The setting of my cabins is unlike many others. Not only will you be closed to town but you will also have the privacy you are looking for. I am always around to take care of what ever needs you might have and you will not have to rely on a property manager.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, sound of the Johnson Branch Creek. Cabins well taken care of. So peaceful, you will get the rest you are looking for.
