Easy access! Mountain Views,Watch the Elk, Fire Pit,Close to Skiing,Tubing, Golf

Experience sweeping long-range mountain views and modern rustic comfort at Linger Longer Elk Lodge, a beautifully crafted log cabin built in 2020 and ideally located in the heart of Maggie Valley. With easy year-round access (no steep roads) and VRBO Premier Partner status, you can book with complete confidence.

Nestled in the peaceful community of Crockett’s Meadow, this cabin delivers unforgettable scenery in every season. Watch elk graze at twilight, enjoy fireflies on warm summer evenings, and soak in panoramic mountain views from the expansive 16-foot porch. Rock your cares away in a porch rocker, gather around the firepit, or simply relax on the spacious wrap-around deck while breathing in the crisp mountain air.

Inside, the 1,450 sq. ft. living space blends upscale finishes with cozy mountain charm. Highlights include a striking stone gas fireplace, granite countertops, a live log beam, and a handcrafted rustic staircase—creating a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both elegant and comfortable.

The cabin features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, making it ideal for families, couples, or small groups. Two bedrooms offer plush king beds, while the third includes a comfortable queen. The primary bath features a walk-in shower, and the upstairs bath includes a shower/tub combination.

Located at the end of a quiet paved road, you’ll enjoy peace and quiet without sacrificing convenience:

Less than 10 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway

15 minutes to Cataloochee Ski Resort

5 minutes to snow tubing

15 minutes to Golf at the Maggie Valley Country Club

30 minutes to Asheville

26 Minutes to The Cherokee Casino

Amazing! The cabin was extremely clean, comfortable for 6 adults and had a beautiful view. Norma was very helpful and quick to respond to my messages. We all loved seeing the elks, ground-hogs, chipmunks, hummingbirds and even one skunk. We truly didn't want to leave. We definitely will come back again.

Cabin was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Location was close to Cherokee, Waynsville and Asheville.There are a lot of new cabins being built so not many open fields and the Elk did not come close to cabin but there was a farm next to neighborhood where they would come every evening to graze and we would drive over there to watch them.Norma was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had about the property or area. Cabin is very spacious and perfect for a family vacation!

Could not have been better. Property was even better than expected. I spent time talking to and getting to know the neighbors, all very nice people. Spectacular views yet close to everything we needed, even saw an elk walking across the street. Communication with the owner was second to none. She replied promptly to every question, supplied area information, no detail left undone.

We had the most amazing weekend in this perfect little cabin! It’s so cozy and relaxing! The elk were only a few yards away every morning and evening! They are so beautiful grazing in the fields around the cabin! Great local restaurants and real close to Cherokee! Can’t wait to go again!!
