About this property

Belvedere-Amazing Views

Prepare to be enchanted when you step onto the deck of this 1100 square foot 2 bedroom/2bath cabin with million dollar views. The master bedroom is located upstairs with the second bedroom on the main level. You will feel like you are on top of the world but will still be close enough to enjoy all the area has to offer.

Dine, shop, raft, take a train ride, play golf, horseback ride, take in a show, take scenic drives-whatever you decide you will find it just minutes away.

Belvedere is 25 minutes from Harrah's Casino and The Cherokee Indian Reservation, 25 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and 30 minutes from Asheville and The Biltmore Estate. Historic downtown Waynesville, The Blue Ridge Parkway and Cataloochee Ski Resort are also just minutes away.

Whatever the season, Belvedere and Great Smoky Mountains have something very special to offer. So back and enjoy the view and make some memories!

Gorgeous views

Wonderful cabin in a great location with gorgeous views. Nice and cool in the summer as it is at 4500ft. 10 minutes to drive up a pretty step narrow road, but worth it. Could have been a bit cleaner upon arrival. A little work would turn this into a true gem.

Outstanding experience

We booked this at the very last minute, looking for a long father/son weekend. Everything went more smoothly than I’d imagined it could be. No more hotels in the Smokies for us. The place itself was remarkable. Very secluded, even though civilization wasn’t too far away. The only thing that would have made it better was if there had been no cell signal.

Needs a deep clean but has a beautiful view and quiet

We enjoyed our stay but things could have been better. The cabin is in desperate need of a deep clean! Dust, cobwebs, dirty floors and bird poop all over the deck when we arrived. Carolina Vacations needs to take better care of the property. There has been no Spring cleaning on the outside either. Leaves and branches everywhere. Despite the cleanliness, the cabin is great! Secluded in a neighborhood WAY up on a steep mountain side. You'll get used to the drive after a few times. Be aware that you need to press ## before the gate code numbers.The instructions from Carolina Vacations only said to press # once. That will not let you in. The other things to be aware of is the ignition switch for the outdoor gas fire pit doesn't work. We left a long lighter for others to use so you can light it. Also there is a constant chirping sound in the downstairs bedroom. This was the most annoying noise and should be taken care of as it prohibits restful sleep. The upstairs bedroom is great! This cabin is a Maggie Valley gem. They just need to fix the minor problems and clean it up, so it will shine like it's supposed to!

Disappointing Carolina Vacations experience

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great views. Cobwebs in windows, dead flies in kitchen, dirty cabinets with coffee grounds, etc., hair on bathroom floor. Outdoor gas fire pit did not work. When contacted Carolina Vacations, the company overseeing the property, cheerfully acknowledged, but did nothing to correct.

Private

Great location on side of mountain in gated community. Nice two bedroom house with good long range view. Not a lot of level ground to walk your pet but it works.small things could be fixed but nothing major. We would definitely stay there again. We were there in the early fall winter might be a challenge to get up there but a lot of homes there so I guess it must be possible but four wheel drive would be a must.

REPEAT CUSTOMER

We stayed at this cabin this past Christmas and what an adventure. [Read my previous review Dec 2020] We booked Belevedere, in advance for another week July 5th - 12th, because we enjoyed it so much. If you want a cabin that is secluded and quiet during the day and night this is the one. No noise from neighbors, cars, trucks or any barking dogs. The cabin's elevation is 5003 ft above sea level so it was cool, cold in the clouds at times. Actually it is one of weather station locations that gives the real time weather stats: Belvedere - KNCMAGGI40. The drive up and down the mountain seems long at first but became routine after a few trips. Two times we drove up the mountain at night and it was easy. We enjoyed barbequing and watching the humming birds fighting for their place on the feeder. A little Chipmonk was a daily visitor that gourged on the bird seeds we put out. The deck is wrap around with plenty of space. Inside, the cabin is cozy with comfortable chairs and cough facing the "wood" burning fireplace. Who goes to a mountain cabin without a real wood burning fireplace? The beds are comfortable and had clean linens. I think the water softener is responsible for the very white towels and linens. The water softener kicks on during the night which sounds like the chipmonk is trying to get into the cabin. The kitchen has everything you need even a coffee grinder. I brought one just in case. My grandson enjoyed taking a hike up the driveway onto the gravel road to the paved quail ridge road. Grandpa had to stop every few 100 yards to catch my breath. We consider this a safe cabin for our 6 year old grandson. It was another great week at Belevedere but, unfortunately, had to return to sunny hot humid Florida...

We had a fantastic week here staring down into Maggie Valley some days the clouds were above us some days the clouds were below us some days we were in the clouds. It was great to get away and be really away from everything. We can’t wait to go back

WINTER WONDERLAND CHRISTMAS!

It starting snowing at 5:30pm on Christmas eve and when we woke up it was a Winter Wonderland. Everything had a blanket of snow. This cabin was warm, nice and very cozy. We had a crackling fire every night and drank hot chocolate like in the Hallmark movies. We were able to venture out everyday, before the snow storm, to explore and return without any problems. The drive up to the cabin is a bit long but the paved roads make it an easy drive. There is a short gravel road to the cabin that wasn't bad either. It is really worth the drive up and down because of the private location and beautiful view from 5,000 ft. The snow storm presented a challenge for us upon check out when leaving. However, we were prepared with bags of salt and snow chains. We shoveled snow from the paved cabin driveway and salted it which gave our front wheel drive minivan enough traction to get to the snow covered gravel road. In order to navigate the ice and snow gravel road we put snow chains on and made it to the main paved Quail Ridge road. We removed the snow chains and were on our way down the mountain, "very carefully"! For Floridians, this was a Christmas vacation to remember!! Looking forward to our next visit..in the spring or summer...
