I wanted to thank Greg and Gina for allowing our family to share in the Glory of their rental cabin. My family loved it so much they wanted to stay longer. The cabin was clean homey, roomy and all around lacked for nothing.
Highly recommend rentng from these wonderful people. |

We had a wonderful time on our little vacation getaway. The cabin is great. It has all the comforts of home, plus a great view of Maggie Valley. The local restaurants were great and there was plenty of good shopping in the area.
We would definitely do it again! |

| We knew when we pulled up the drive and saw this beautiful cabin we knew it was going to be a great week. My two boys just loved the cabin and there is more then enought to do in the local area as well as short drives to neighboring areas. However my wife and I really enjoyed the mornings and evening time of sitting on the back deck looking at the mountains and listening to the creek. We have been to many places and even lived in the Rockies but Maggie Valley and especially this cabin is a must see for fun with the family or a place of rest and relaxation. By the way did I mention the 40 lbs of trout I brought back with me. A mountain stream or lake is a short drive in any direction but if you want a fun place where you are guarenteed to land a big trout check out the Soco Trout Ponds just up the road. I could go on but I will close with this. "One of the best family vacations we have had!" Thank you to the owners for making it possible. |

| Absolutely love this house! I have spent a weekend three years in a row and plan to go back again & again. Feels like home the moment you arrive. The porch has a terrific view and the quiet makes it the perfect place for a hot cup a coffee, a blanket and a book. Also, its amazing to drive short way and see the beautiful Elk. |

| AWESOME!!! This cabin was absolutely perfect! We enjoyed the close proximity to Ghost Town and all the major attractions in Maggie Valley. My kids cannot wait until we come back again. The cabin was extremely clean and had everything you needed. I just cannot say enough about how great the place was. I will be recommending this place a lot to my friends here at home. |

| This was an amazing place to stay. Excellent location, not too close to the Smoky National Park and not too far away. The cabin is located up a bending road up the mountain with spectacular views and privacy. My wife and I had a very romantic getaway. |

| My husband and I spent Memorial Day weekend in the "Heart of Maggie" this year and came away with a wonderful experience and can't wait to go back. Serenity is the best word I can use to describe the cabin and the magnificent setting. I am an early morning person and the view off the front porch is absolutely gorgeous. The cabin is conveniently located yet is very private. We visited Fontana Lake while we were there and it was wonderful. The cabin is comfortable and the warm country decor immediately makes the stress start to melt away. This was a five star experience! There is a local pancake house with fresh mountain blueberry pancakes five minutes from the cabin. The cost of the cabin in minimal for the quality offered. |

My wife and I had spent a week at this cabin in June 2006. Home would be a more appropriate term than cabin, as it is quite spacious and comfortable. It is a fine example of a well appointed, modern log home. The kitchen allowed us to prepare full meals and compose lunches for the field. The location is secluded and alpine in nature yet it is only short ride into the town of Maggie Valley. We found neighboring Waynesville to be refreshingly eclectic and spent one evening attending a performance at their community theater. The home is a perfect base for excursions across the region. We had brought our bicycles and spent two days cycling at both the Smoky Mountain N.P. and in Asheville at the Biltmore Estate. If we could have, we would have stayed for a longer time. Nonetheless, we even found the drive from/to Chicago to be easily done in a day. We look forward to returning to this home. |

| We loved this cabin! It's located up a beautiful winding road from town, with fabulous views of the valley through the trees. All the comforts of home, very well-equipped, tastefully decorated, and well maintained. It's a cozy little nest. The only problem is that you won't want to leave and go do anything, because you'll want to settle in and put your feet up! |

What a beautiful cabin!! We loved it! The view was incredible. The area was perfect. The cabin inside and out was beautiful. It felt like home. It was very clean like new. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to another stay very soon. This weekend was unforgetable and we were so sad to leave. Thanks again. The Echevarria Family |

| WOW...this is a beautiful cabin with a fantastic view of the mountains! We were plesantly surprised when we drove up and actually entered the cabin. It is extremely warm and cozy, very clean and well cared for. Lots of room and beautifully designed and constructed. We didn't know what to expect, but were tickled to death. The owners, Gina and Greg were very friendly and helpful. We plan to go back again very soon. |

| My family stayed in this cabin last year around Christmas time. Our daughter is a Christmas baby so we decided to find a place to take a traditional trip to ski/snow tube. We ran across this cabin on the internet and like anyone else, we only hoped that it was as good as it sounded. There is one reason that I hesitate to tell you how good it really is - we will never be able to book year after year if the news gets out!!!! It is really that good. It is so cozy and clean. I would never stay at a hotel (or anywhere else) after staying here. Noone would be disappointed in this cabin. It feels like home, only better! We took my parents who are "clean freaks" ( I mean that kindly) and we were worried that the weekend could be disappointing for them if things weren't up to par. They immediately focused on how clean the cabin was when we arrived. They talked about how comfortable it made them while we were there. We have just booked our second trip but it will not be our last! We love this place. Please try it but don't take our December spot!! |

We had a wonderful and relaxing four days at the "Heart of Maggie Valley." We arrived at dusk, and we could see the mountains in a distant haze. When we awoke the next morning and opened the front door, we were astounded by the view. The mountains were breath-takingly beautiful. We sat on the porch every morning to drink our coffee / tea and just absorb the view. The "Heart of Maggie" was the perfect retreat--comfortable beds, impeccably clean kitchen, and beautiful view. |

We had such a relaxing and romantic week at Heart of Maggie. The cabin immediatlety makes you feel at home with it's wonderful decor,cleanliness and the serene setting on the porch. There is so much to do here and the people in Maggie Valley are so friendly. We drove the Parkway, toured the Smokies, hiked the Appalachian Trail, saw beautiful waterfalls and wildflowers, shopped, golfed, and visited the Biltmore Estate. There are great restaurants, but all the amemnities to cook and grill out at the cabin. Thanks Greg and Gina for a very memorable week. Connie and Bill.

| I found this little gem on the Internet by doing a google search for rentals in Maggie Valley. We always have "angst" as we get nearer to our rental when we've only seen it on the internet and believed comments from people like us. Wow, were we so very surprised at the location and cleanliness and decor of Heart of Maggie cabin. I walked in and said, "Draw up the papers, I'm home!" This "cabin" has been well maintained. The roads provide year round access (if you've never been to the Great Smokies, this is a BIG deal!)without a 4 wheel drive. It's quiet. The view from the "back porch" is wonderful. The air is fresh and clean. There is a VCR, but no DVD, with westerns and other movies, and a grill and 2 great rockers and 2 great gliders on the porch. Bring your bottle of wine, a light jacket(even in the summer) and rock and watch the chippies run across the property. Eat at Butts on the Creek for some great barbecue and don't be afraid to try the fried corn on the cob. There is much to do in this area. You will thoroughly enjoy your stay at Heart of Maggie cabin! |

We had an AWESOME time at Heart of Maggie cabin! Thursday night we had some great N.C. barbecue at "Butts on the Creek". Friday we hiked the Deep Creek Trails and saw gorgeous waterfalls. Saturday we drove to Cherokee then hiked up Water Rock Knob Trail on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The oak and Maple trees were beautiful shades of red and gold. That night we ate at Salty Dogs were we had the most honest, hysterically funny waiter EVER!!!(Food was O.K.) Then we went to watch the National Clogging Competition - AMAZING! Sunday, we had a pumpkin carving contest on the porch with our great frineds J & T. How fun is THAT??

The weekend here at Heart of Maggie was wonderful. We regret that we didn't get to spend more time at the cabin. But, the view was inspiring and the stars aplently. It was great to have the family together. We hope to make this trip a yearly adventure!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at the "Heart of Maggie". Our family always has a girls' weekend away and this was it. Mostly we've been on the go and haven't spent much time at the cabin, but the cabin time has been great. This cabin is just beautiful, more than we expected! It feels like home. I enjoy the open feel of the living area. And although rustic, the home is very beautifully decorated. Life in the woods, but contemporary. It's been our best trip to Maggie Valley yet! We plan to be at the "Heart if Maggie" a couple times each year if you'll have us.

Hi, my name is Jessica and I am 14 years old. I live in Virginia. I am here on vacation with my family. We have had a blast here. We have been to Cherokee lots of times but this is our first time at the cabin. We really like it. It's so clean and it make me feel at home. I'm glad my Dad picked this place to stay because I like it better then hotels. We intend on staying here next time we come to Cherokee. We grilled out and watched movies. We went to a few shops, played putt-putt, and my parents went to the casino. Well, thanks for renting us the nice cabin and we will come back soon.

We received this lovely comment just the other day from some nice folks out of Columbia, SC. We wanted to enter it into the guestbook:
Dear Greg and Gina, Sorry it has been a week since I have had a chance to thank you for our lovely weekend at your cabin. We had a wonderful time and really loved the cabin. I have told a great deal of people about you but have managed to lose your web site address could you email it back to me? Once again thanks again!! Darlene

We brought our husbands to your beautiful cabin as a get-away for their birthdays. On Friday night we had dinner at Granny's Chicken Palace. The chicken was out of this world- family-style veggies were a nice touch. On Saturday, we rode through town and then took a horse-back ride to the top of the ridge (Queen Stables). We are not experienced riders - the one hour trip would have been sufficient! It was a great adventure, though. We spent a few hours Sat. night at Harrahs. We are not going home any richer! We did not realize that all of Cherokee was "dry". We had supper at Grandma's Pancake and Steak - the fresh trout was delicious. Locals seemed to enjoy the Indian Inco. THE VIEW FROM THE CABIN IS BREATH-TAKING. The guys built a fire in the pit to unwind. The ladies stayed close to the cabin- saddle sores! We look forward to another getaway and will definitely remember Heart of Maggie Cabin!
