Perfect Family Retreat

We loved our stay! It worked perfectly for our family of 4 to be upstairs and then grandparents to be downstairs. We loved the porch and the view. Home was very clean and well stocked with supplies. Would definitely stay again.

Family time

A pleasurable stay. Plenty of space for a family of 10. Thermostats were a pain to work, but no other complaints. Looking forward to another trip this year.

Standing Elk Lodge

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the cabin was lovely. The view was good and the beds were very comfortable. I do think that the owners could do a better job of stocking their kitchen and supplying some basic supplies. I am aware it was stated in the description that a starter supply would be provided, however, as a STR owner myself, I also know the importance of stocking so that my guests don't have to make a run on the night of their arrival. We didn't have basic cleaning supplies to wipe down the kitchen after we cooked/ate. For 3K for a week, I don't think it's much to expect a full supply of items such as trash bags (that also makes my cleaner's job easier so they don't have to clean out a trash can if a guest runs out of bags). There wasn't a strainer for draining pasta water, the knives needed sharpening, the pots and pans have seen better days and many of the kitchen and living room lights were flickering. There are many other options at that price point that provide more basic amenities.

Lovely home/ views. Needs some issues addressed

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful spacious home with nice views, very small kitchen for large home. We had to purchase baby gates immediately for 3 steep, open slat staircases that are in the middle of house. Pet hair everywhere even though pets aren't allowed with new owners. Downstairs area rug smelled of pet urine so strong we couldn't hang out downstairs. It was too large to roll up and put into garage. Upstairs area rug also filthy. Both area rugs need replaced and house needs a deep cleaning! Spider webs in rafters that stretched down to the point that my daughter had a spider on her still attached to the ceiling web. Expected more considering the price. Have rented and owned vacation homes in previous years and were were very disappointed in this house. We did love the neighborhood and the gas fireplace.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin was wonderful! Great location and beautiful views. Over the past 13 years we've stayed in lots of wonderful cabins with Smoky Mountain Retreat and Standing Elk was the cleanest one yet. All have been clean but this one was extremely clean! My teenagers loved the pool table, billiards and Peloton. We had a relaxing stay!

Standing Elk

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Breathtaking views overlooking valley and Lake and surrounding mountains. Comfortably furnished executive style log cabin. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our large extended family. Kitchen a tight fit for large group but well equipped but we brought our own Kuerig. First trip up from Soco Rd daunting for Floridians; but easily driven after that. 8 minute trip from main hwy to house. driveway more challenging for 3 cars but doable by using the garages. Close to everything - waynesville, golf courses, fishing, National park, restaurants, etc. we had a great experience with the cooler temps we hoped for.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had some really bad cold weather so wasn't able to get down the mountain for a couple of days. The Standing Elk Lodge is a great place to stay, it's plenty big and comfortable. The only issues we were disappointed in was the bedrooms were freezing cold and we couldn't get them warm. The other issue, minor items of maintenance and repair were totally ignored. All in all it was a good visit.

Always a Pleasure at Standing Elk

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoy this magnificent home every fall and sometime summer with our family. We drive from Florida and others drive down from Pennsylvania for a reunion that fuels our hearts & soul. The morning g sunrise is spectacular from all the rooms and porch. The spacious and comfortable bedrooms for 8-10 are more than adequate. Lots of fun with pool table, fooseball, games and books! Look forward to it every year!

Great stay for a family reunion

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I booked two houses with Smoky Mountain Retreat for our family reunion in June 2022. We had a great experience with both houses. The houses were large enough for people to spread out and not always be on top of each other - the games in the houses also helped with this! The bedrooms were large and comfortable. There were plenty of bathrooms which were well equipped. The jacuzzi bubble bath with mountain views in the Standing Elk Lodge was a huge hit! We had an amazing stay and will for sure book again when in the area!

A Summer in The Smokies

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our 5th yr of renting at SMR. Management group does an excellent job and is responsive to any issues. The property is tired and needs to be repaired and updated. Lots of deferred maintenance. We have not experienced this with past rentals at SMR.Management group is limited in addressing some of the issues due to reluctance from owner. View and location are very nice. Would not rent this property again.

Fantastic Home!

Our family has rented a home in Waynesville/Maggie at least 1/year for over 10 years. Everyone agreed, this was the best yet. We had 6 adults staying at the house and 4 more were with us mid-afternoon until early evening. Having things spread out across the 3 floors meant it never felt crowded. Beautiful view, secluded and quiet.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing home and views. had a great visit. a few minor issues you should know about... fireplace remote for the main room was no where to be found. The downstairs fireplace did not have the pilot light lit. Needed help getting them working the morning after arrival. Also, different documents indicated different procedures for handling trash. One indicated we should carry all trash to the dumpster at the base, other indicated just needed to carry overflow trash that did not fit in the trash cans. Recommend making sure arrival docs match up with information left in the house.

Wonderful Getaway in the mountains

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: For the past 25 years my husband and I, and 2 of his Army buddies and their wives, get together for a long weekend in the mountains. We love the Maggie Valley area. We stayed at Standing Elk this time and loved the mountain home! Unfortunately, we did not get to experience the fantastic views since it was very foggy and rainy. We would definitely come back again!

Snow for South Carolina Gals

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time in our rental home. Tons of room, beautiful views, and we got snow. We made great memories and thorough enjoy our time in the mountains. We've rented from Smoky Mountain Retreat before and continue to be happy with their services. They were very helpful with regard to the snow and making SC girls who are that accustomed to snow feel safe. The staff is always courteous and accommodating. We enjoyed a great breakfast at Joey's (one of our favorites). They have the best hashbrown casserole EVER! Butts on the Creek is always a stop for us for brisket. Yummy!

Peaceful views

Plenty of room for our whole family. The furnishings were comfortable. The view was fabulous over the valley. The kitchen was well stocked to support most needs. Baby gates did not seem to fit. Very convenient to town, but you could not tell from the lofty location!
