Welcome to Awesome View Cabin, managed by Carolina Mountain Vacation Homes, a trusted, family-owned business proudly serving Maggie Valley and Waynesville travelers since the early 1990s.
The name “Awesome View” says it all—from the front deck, you can see for 30 miles across the rolling ridges of the Smoky Mountains. Perched high above Maggie Valley, this cozy log cabin combines breathtaking long-range views with privacy, comfort, and authentic mountain charm.

The loft area also includes foosball and a regulation-size ping-pong table, letting guests enjoy some fun while admiring the panoramic mountain scenery.
RELAXATION & OUTDOOR LIVING
Step out onto the expansive deck and take in sweeping, year-round views of the Smoky Mountains. Relax in the large hot tub, savor the mountain air, or cook dinner on the gas grill as the sun sets.
Inside, cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace or watch the fog roll over the ridges from the comfort of the living room. There’s parking for two vehicles in the driveway and one in the garage.
At 4,700 feet above sea level, you’ll love the cool, crisp mountain air and peaceful surroundings—a true Smoky Mountain escape.

HOST MESSAGE
Our team at Carolina Mountain Vacation Homes looks forward to welcoming you to Awesome View Cabin, where every sunrise paints the mountains in color, every evening brings peace, and every stay reminds you why the Smoky Mountains are truly magical.
This was our second time staying here, and we love it just as much as the first. The views are absolutely breathtaking and truly live up to the name. The cabin is comfortable, well cared for, and the perfect place to relax. We will definitely be back again!
Great cabin, had so much fun! Definitely listen and take into consideration if you don’t have four wheel drive then to get snow chains if recommended. We got tons of son but the kids had a blast! Highly recommend
The views are worth the stay alone, but the property and cabin were even better than the listing. My boyfriend and I loved this stay, and we will definitely book again if in the area. Very short drive to see wild elk. The hot tub at night with the view of the valley and sitting by the fire are memories we will cherish for a long time.
The cabin is absolutely beautiful and very clean. The owners were extremely nice and any time I had a question they answered within minutes. And what a view!!!! We sat in the hot tub and watched for shooting starts at night, and woke up early to watch the sunrise. The location is sooo peaceful and quiet. I felt like we were the only people on the planet. From the deck you feel like you can see forever.
The house was exactly as pictured, and the owner was extremely prompt and helpful with communication. The only challenge we experienced was keeping the house warm during the snowstorm. Also, be aware that you’ll need a 4-wheel-drive vehicle—the road conditions were very rough and made getting in and out difficult. It took us nine minutes to go just one mile, but crews were actively working on repairs as we were leaving. We absolutely loved the views, and it was our first time renting a cabin with such large windows. However, we realized that a cabin with big windows isn’t the best fit for us—the glare and brightness from the sun were a bit too strong. I would recommend this cabin!!
Had a great time. Beautiful property with an incredible view. Our only complaint was both bathrooms were almost out of toilet paper with only 1 backup roll.
Thank you for staying with Carolina Mountain Vacation Homes, Kent! We will make sure the cleaner knows to leave out more toilet paper. Also, as a notice to all future guests: Please reach out to us immediately upon check-in if you need anything such as extra toilet paper or soap.
This place is beautiful! It’s a little rough getting up the mountain to it, but very doable. The cabin was very clean and equipped with any supplies one might need to cook with. My family had a wonderful relaxing time.
The cabin was amazing. The view truly was awesome. Everything was very clean and in good working order. I would highly recommend this cabin. You can get to it in 2 Wheel Dr., but four-wheel-drive is easier.
We stayed in Maggie Valley so we could go to the Pow Wow on the Cherokee reservation, not far from there. It is a perfect, secluded get away with amazing views! The hot tub was an added bonus! We went in July, and I would still recommend an all wheel drive vehicle! Thank you for letting us stay!
Great getaway location located less than an hour drive between other sightseeing destinations. Loved the quiet and beauty, and the cabin had everything we needed. When they say you must have a 4x4 or AWD they are not kidding! Was great that they allowed pets so my dog could get away with us and enjoy the time away. Would definitely recommend this cabin!
Beautiful location, best price and well stocked with just about anything you could need
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The accommodation is in such a stunning location. The interior is warm and cozy but so spacious. We had forgotten some kitchen items and were so glad to find the kitchen stocked with spices, cooking oil, aluminum foil, scissors even duct tape! There was an abundance of nice thick towels of various sizes which was really nice.
It was perfect for a retreat for 3 pastors. Equipped with all the necessities.
The view is amazing. Mornings are breathe-taking. It’s private and cozy—Nights in the hot tub and mornings enjoying the view while sipping coffee.
That's what makes this home so special and I'm glad you and your guests were able to enjoy all of it :) Thank you for staying with us and have a happy holidays!
Weather was breezy and in the 70s. Lots of hummingbirds around the deck. They were fun to watch. Road is steep and treacherous so 4WD is necessary as the listing states. Great sized cabin. Had a pleasant stay.
The road leading up to the cabin is treacherous! (But well worth it) I would most definitely stay here again! The views from the deck are so beautiful! The cabin is stocked with all of the necessary amenities, you wouldn't even need to leave (other than for food) if you didn't want to!
We have been staying in the Smokies for many years and this is the best view we have ever had! The cabin is very nice and comfortable. It was spotless clean and well maintained. The property management were very friendly and addressed our every need quickly and promptly. The road getting to the cabin is exactly as advertised, what an adventure and a memory we will never forget. It was a great week!
Thank you for staying with Carolina Mountain Vacation Homes, Eric! It was a pleasure speaking with you during your stay :)
