This well-appointed lower level 800 ft.ÂČ unit at Qualla Cabin is located in a secluded mountain area with awesome long range views (4500ft) Just west of the town of Maggie Valley, on the border of the Cherokee Reservation. The entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway is minutes away, for unlimited mountain cruising and hiking in the Great Smoky National Park. Maggie Valley offers Cataloochee Ski Lodge, Wheels Through Time motorcycle museum, snow tubing, a variety of restaurants and pubs, and shopping. Visit the casino in Cherokee, or head to Asheville for the day. Enjoy long-range mountain vistas from the comfort of the full-length, ground-level deck while sipping your favorite beverage. Watch and listen to abundant bird life. It's not uncommon to catch a glimpse of elk or black bears that share the mountain with us. Hummingbirds flit from feeder to feeder, as do Gold finches, Nuthatches, Cardinals, Bluebirds and the Tufted Titmouse . You won't want to miss the spectacular sunsets on display nightly, or watch storms roll in through the valley. There is a lot to do if you choose, but it's also the perfect place to slow down and just breathe!
My husband and I had a really great time staying in this mountain cabin over the Labor Day weekend. The cabin is cozy, comfortable, beautiful, stylish, very clean, well-equipped with modern amenities, we had everything we needed during our stay. The view from the porch is spectacular, especially during sunset! The property is situated in a convenient location, close to all local amenities and facilities while peaceful and quiet. The owners are very kind and welcoming, provided lots of helpful information about the surrounding area, such as river walks, numerous waterfalls, hikes to awe-inspiring mountain and valley views, historic sites, local restaurants and more. We were lucky to observe some animals in their natural habitats, including elks, black bears (make sure to keep a distance)), chipmunks, rabbits, groundhogs, hummingbirds and many other kinds of birds. We will consider this place for our future mountain retreats!
My husband and I love this little cabin. The mountain views are perfect from all areas inside the cabin, but my favorite view was from the front porch. Capt Tony and Mrs. Nancy were the sweetest hosts and ensured we were ok and comfortable throughout our stay. Capt Tony gave us suggestions of things to do and places to eat while in the areaâŠ.. his suggestions did not disappoint, all were amazing!! The hospitality given to us by Capt Tony and Mrs. Nancy was phenomenal!! 5 stars all the way!!! We will certainly book this cabin again! Thank you Capt Tony and Mrs. Nancy!!
It was amazing. The weather was great and Tony and Nancy were awesome. It was perfect. You couldnât have asked for a better place to stay. It was extremely clean and the view was awesome. All the bears that we had the chance to see. It was the best vacation that we have had in a good while.
We loved the view and being able to sit outside on the porch, soaking in Godâs beauty while drinking coffee and listening to nature! Tony and Nancy had wonderful recommendations of things to do (and eat!!!). Easy access to the parkway, and can easily get to Cherokee and Waynesville! They were very accommodating and personable! Highly recommend!
Breathtaking Stay at Qualla Cabin â A Smoky Mountains Gem!
We had such a great time staying at Qualla Cabin in the Smoky Mountains. The view from the porch was absolutely incredible, you could see for miles, and watching the sunset with a drink in hand was something weâll never forget.The cabin was super clean, the bed was really comfortable, and it had everything we needed. You can tell itâs well taken care of.Captain Tony and his wife Nancy were the best hosts weâve ever had. They were so friendly and helpfulâgave us great tips on where to hike, where to spot elk and bears, and even recommended some awesome places to eat and shop nearby.The location was perfect. Itâs only a few minutes from the entrance to the national park, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is just down the road. We ended up driving that way a lot because the views, waterfalls, and winding mountain roads were way more fun than the main highway.There were plenty of great places to eat, especially some nearby brewpubs with good food and outdoor seating. And we canât forget Joeyâs in Maggie Valley, one of the best breakfasts weâve had in a long time.If youâre looking for a peaceful getaway with amazing views and great hosts, this is the spot. Weâre already talking about coming back!
Had a great time. Place was very clean and well stocked. Views were awesome. Spent lots of time on the porch enjoying the mountains. Hosts Capt. Tony and his wife Nancy are very friendly and great hosts.
Our anniversary getaway at Captain Tony and Nancy's beautiful mountain home was everything we could have hoped for and more.Their place was spotless, cozy, and so thoughtfully prepared-it instantly felt like a home away from home. We loved every moment, from peaceful walks along the Oconaluftee River and relaxing time at Lake Junaluska, to exploring the charm of downtown Waynesville with its great food and local shops.It was the perfect mix of nature, comfort, and small-town magic. We're already looking forward to our next trip back to this wonderful state filled with kind-hearted people
The cabin was great as were the hosts. Everything was clean, private, and well maintained. The hosts went above and beyond for us. We had to find a place quickly because my husbandâs brother took a turn for the worse and we got there just in time to say goodbye. Capt. Tony bought a sympathy card and treats for my pups. The special little touches like fresh flowers in the kitchen, bathroom, and front porch made it welcoming and homey. He was very helpful with restaurant advice and things to do that I hope to one day be able to do. The reason for the visit was the only downside.
This place was the cleanest and nicest place weâve stayed at. Capt Tony and Nancy are two of the nicest people youâll meet. The view from the cabin and property was absolutely stunning. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was all we had hoped for and more. We will definitely be back!
They were very friendly and inviting people. They did their best to accomodate all of our needs. We will tell all of our friends to check this place out. Secluded and quiet. Just what we were looking for. You cant ask for better hosts.
We had a great overall experience, âdandyâ in the words of my wife! The property was clean and the hosts were friendly and very communicative. There are excellent views and it is in a good location relative to places like Asheville, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Cherokee, Waynesville, and more! The only real downside to the property is the road up to the house. The last mile and a half or so is unpaved and fairly loose. If you have an SUV or truck it will not be an issue. Anyone with a smaller two wheel drive car May struggle on the road, especially in bad weather. Overall great stay!
Qualla Cabin was a cozy stay central to several Smokey Mountain towns. Each day we were able to drive s somewhere new. We enjoyed hiking, shopping, local festivals and great food.
Captain Tony and Nancy are exceptional and highly attentive hosts. This is our second visit as we enjoyed our stay from last year so much. The property is very comfortable, has all the amenities, and the mountain views are magnificent. Captain Tony is extremely helpful, offering great recommendations for both dining out and sightseeing. We brought our dog, Sophie, and Tony gave us good recommendations for hikes and restaurants that allowed us to include her. Tony and his wife, Nancy, are incredibly gracious, and words canât fully capture just how wonderful they are.
The sunset is amazing i think my wife took 300 pictures everything was just perfect to the bedroom to kitchen to the bathroom everything extra clean and tidy Capt Tony made sure we felt right at home quiet and peaceful will be retuning soon !!
My husband and I decided to take a last minute trip to our favorite place Maggie Valley this past week. Captain Tony and Nancy made it happen at the last minute and are wonderful host! The place has the most amazing views, was very clean and had everything we needed. I did not want to go home! We will definitely be back!
What an amazing place to stay! Can't recommend it enough, both for the location as well as the wonderful hosts. This was the best VRBO I have ever had and will certainly be back when in the Smokies.
We had a wonderful stay at Captain Tony and Nancy's place! What an absolutely wonderful place ! If you are going to visit the Smoky Moutains and are looking for a place remote, but not too much, with a homy feeling, this place is for you. t
Tony and Nancy were amazing. Their cabin came with such an unexpected spectacular view. They were both so hospitable. The cabin itself was beautiful clean and equipped with anything you could need. and an extra thanks to them for accommodating my two senior dogs. They made our trip perfection we did not need or want for anything, and I cannot say enough about their hospitality. there was even a birthday card waiting for me when I arrived, if you want a peaceful beautiful, stay in the mountains with spectacular views donât pass this one by this place was simply heaven to me and my husband and we will definitely be back đ thank you Tony and Nancy for an amazing stayâ„ïž
On the back side of Paradise and the foot of Heaven, you will find QUALLA CABIN! This was our second stay at Qualla and it was even better than the first, which was absolutely perfect! Capt. Tony and Nancy are incredible hosts and even better people who will make sure you want or need for nothing during your visit! The Cabin is perfectly secluded up in the mountains and travel to and from town is very easy. Without question, we will be back for a third time ASAP! If youâre looking for an amazing place to stay and enjoy yourself while in the mountains, THIS IS THE ONE!!

Qualla Cabin is a hidden gem with a million dollar view. You can sit on the back patio and watch the sun rise and the sunset. Tony & Nancy are great hosts and make you feel very welcome. Qualla sits on the side of a mountain over looking the Blue Ridge Parkway. The cabin is perfect for your next vacation in the mountains.

We were in for a long weekend getaway. The cabin was beautiful! It was clean and beautifully decorated. New appliances in the kitchen; a beautiful live edge countertop in the bathroom and a great gas heater in the living space. The cabin was well stocked. Books and games are available when you return back in from your sight seeing adventures. A warm shower with strong water pressure is a great end to a fun-filled day! Nice, comfortable bed and plenty of pillows gets you ready for a new adventure the next day. I would highly recommend a stay at Qualla Cabin.
This is a very quiet, friendly "community". We are located at 4,500 ft. elevation where the views are outstanding. Our cabin faces the west, so the sunsets are spectacular! A variety of bird life lends itself to endless birdwatching. Our rental unit is newly constructed downstairs, private apartment that is equipped with all new furnishings and amenities. We've thought of everything to help make your stay comfortable and convenient. With a variety of games, dvd, and books you don't even have to leave the location! Because we are centrally located you'll have easy access to Asheville, Cherokee, Bryson City, and even Pigeon Forge (Dollywood) for day trips.
We are centrally located between Cherokee and Maggie Valley, with Waynesville a short drive for more shopping and dining. With the entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway only 1/4 mile down the road, your only minutes away from cruising, hiking, and enjoying the countless views.
