Lovely setting
This beautiful property had all the amenities that one would need in a peaceful, serene setting. The nightly elk visits were beyond belief! The house was clean, well stocked and in a great (easy to access) location- especially for those hauling a trailer. The owner was responsive and friendly. Would highly recommend this property and will look to book again in the future.

Great stay
We’re leaving tomorrow and it’s been a great trip. The cabin/house was clean and was stocked with everything we’ve needed (extra towels and charging ports for electronics etc..). The owners thought of everything. It appears they’ve even trained a few elk to prance past the house a couple times each day to impress the kids. - Nice touch ;)

Our time at this cabin was amazing!
Beautiful cabin and location! Amazing view of the mountains and Elk, the Elk came right up to the cabin, it was so peaceful just watching them! Fire pit outside is perfect for some afternoon relaxation. Great local restaurants near the cabin to enjoy. I would give this place a 10 star rating if i could. We will be back to enjoy this little peace of heaven on earth.

Surrounded by Mountains
The cabin was clean, well equipped and the property was perfect. The wrap around porch was a big plus. The cabin is in a great area. Close to the Blue Ridge Pkwy, Asheville and things to do like whitewater rafting, mountain biking, hiking, restaurants and sight seeing. Another big plus was the well kept yard and field around it, allowing our boys to play games out there and catch fire flies at night and cannot forget the nightly Elk visits. We will be back! We also made sure to leave the beautiful cabin as we found it.

We enjoyed our stayed at Elk Haven Lodge. Everything we needed was available to us, the cabin is equipped with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The cabin is beautiful and the location is great! We saw the Elk heard everyday of our vacation. We are already talking about booking another vacation and staying at this cabin again.

Winter Break Short Ski Trip
Elk Have Lodge was amazing! We only had time to stay for two nights but those two nights were wonderful. The cabin is very comfortable and has everything that you need. The tiny details and extras in the cabin that Bruce has included set this rental apart from the others we have stayed at previously! The location was perfect for us with Joeys Pancake House and the road to the slopes minutes away. We will definitely be back when we can stay longer!

Great place for a weekend getaway!
The cabin was perfect and every detail was covered with all the things you will need. The furnishings were nice and beds were comfortable. Great outdoor area and fire pit. The local Elk herd visits every evening to graze in the field next door. We counted over 20 of them right outside the property. They are not aggressive and keep to themselves. Great time and great views. Close to all the shops and restaurants in Maggie Valley.

Fantastic stay
Stayed May 23-29. 2 couples. First of all Bruce has been excellent. He went above and beyond to guide us how to get to the cabin. I used Apple Maps to navigate but it took us to a different neighborhood. The cabin is spotless, complete amenities and the view was amazing! It has a carport, we had an SUV and two Harley bikes. It rained for couple of days, so the carport was a big plus! We love the wrap around porch! King bed was great and TV in each room. We cook breakfast, and cook steaks on the grill on our second night, complete utensils and cookware. Keurig coffee maker and coffee pods were provided. We stayed in the living room and watch some movies and favorite shows. There were several Elk showed up almost everyday at our yard! We were so excited to see them in the morning and evening. We rode our Harley motorcycles to the mountains. This is our second time in Maggie Valley, but first time staying in this cabin. We loved the place! 5 star review for this place! Definitely recommended! Can’t wait to come back!

Better than expected!
I booked this cabin for a weekend ski getaway for my wife’s birthday. The weather coming in for a little interesting but they were ready for it with salted roads and snow plows! One personal touch that I have never had was from Bruce, the property owner. First he was very flexible with our check in time as we didn’t know what to expect coming in with the weather. Second, he made it a point to call and check in just to make sure we made it in safely. The cabin was gorgeous! Mountain View’s from any direction on the wrap around porch! The inside was immaculate, clean top to bottom, looked like a show room floor. The very first night, we had elk walk right up to the cabin only feet away! We were centralized to food and fun never having to go far for anything. There is nothing that I would have changed about our trip, it was perfect!

Wonderful Experience
We really enjoyed our stay! It was just as described. Everything was clean and well maintained. There is construction going on around, as this is a new development. It didn’t bother us though, as it was a short stay and we were gone during the day. My family really enjoyed playing pool and the fireplace in the evenings. It was too cold this stay, but the fire pit outside would be perfect in another season. We saw elk upon arrival; just as we entered the development. This was a blessing!! The views of the mountains are wonderful. The location is great; central to many things in Maggie Valley and other surrounding towns. Very easy access to the cabin; flat, maintained, hard surface roads. The kitchen is well stocked with all kinds of cookware and small appliances, from toaster, coffee pot, blender, mixer, roaster pan, crockpot, waffle maker, pots/pans, colander, etc. We didn’t use much, but everything is there to cook essentially any kind of meal. Bring whatever food, spices and condiments you want. We didn’t see any firewood for the pit, so bring that. Indoor fireplace is gas. Basic essentials are provided as starters (like TP, soaps, paper towels), but you may want to bring extras if staying for a longer time. There are several Dollar General stores close by if you need to get something, also a liquor store (ABC), but I believe the closest grocery stores are in Waynesville. Owner communication was fantastic. We look forward to returning in another season!!

Elk Haven Lodge is surrounded by beautiful mountains and lovely scenery yet is located in the middle of Maggie Valley and all the conveniences that it offers. The porch is perfect for wildlife viewing or socializing with family or friends. The interior of the cabin is tastefully and comfortably furnished, and suited the needs of our family of 6 well. The kitchen was very well stocked, and the entire property was impeccably clean inside and out. We highly recommend Elk Haven Lodge when staying in the Maggie Valley area.
