Me and my brothers (all in our 70s) shared a wonderful long weekend at the Alta Vista and enjoyed every minute of it! The beauty of the lodging and the wonderful setting high in the mountain made everything more relaxing and fun.

We started in another cabin that had foreseeable issues. The property management moved us very quickly and handled it professionally. Lien’s Lodge was fortunately available Monday - Friday. It was a perfect, beautiful cabin with an amazing view. We are so thankful and will stay there again.

We have stayed at Alta Vista several times when visiting Maggie Valley. The cabin is perfect for our family, it is very clean and in excellent condition. The location is very convenient to the entrance and so close to many activities in Maggie Valley and Waynesville. Smoky Mountain Retreat is a beautiful neighborhood and we enjoyed our stay!

Elegant Cabin with Beautiful Fall Views
Stayed 4 days ending October 2016
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
This cabin has the wow factor due to the location, cleanliness and high end construction and decor. The reason I rated it a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the treacherous driveway and the miserly policy regarding a "starter kit" for items such as garbage bags, soap, toilet paper etc. The driveway is extremely difficult to maneuver one vehicle and more than one is a major problem. Be forewarned. Ask about it!

Relaxing
Stayed 7 days ending November 2016
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
We had a very relaxing week away from the hurried life of everyday living. The view with the changing leaves was wonderful. We still found some attractions (tower) open late in the season. We only ate out a couple times since the property had everything we needed to just stay there and relax.
