This property was amazing, and Mark and Jackie were wonderful hosts! Our kids had a blast fishing in the pond and wading in the creek. The cabin was just the right size for our family of four. It got down into the low 30’s during our visit and the cabin stayed nice and warm. We visited Brevard during our stay and really enjoyed the area. There were plenty of restaurants and interesting shops to visit. My son and I also got to do some fly fishing in the French Broad River. We can’t wait for our next trip to the cabin at Maggie’s Farm.

Tranquil Escape with Scenic Views & Wonderful Hosts Dog Friendly!If you're looking for the perfect blend of country charm, scenic beauty, tranquility and nature Maggie's Farm is an absolute gem! A gorgeous property that embodied everything I love about vacation rentals—serene surroundings, breathtaking views, and the most gracious and thoughtful hosts who make you feel at home. Stunning Views & Peaceful LocationMaggies Farm offeres the most beautiful country views - whether sipping coffee in the morning on the deck or winding down in the evening. And the STARS at night - Wow! The property very close to many WATERFALLS and hiking TRAILS. Our dogs had such a great time exploring! If you enjoy nature activities, the creek and fishing pond on the property are fantastic. THE MOST Charming Hosts:The highlight of our stay had to be the incredible kindness of the Mark & Jacquie. I LOVE dog people. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting with them. We had delays getting in due to car trouble & they went above and beyond to help accommodate us. So amazing! They made sure we had everything we needed, from providing tips about area, stocking firewood, offering fishing tips as well as sharing home grown vegetables! They were so kind to our dogs, bringing treats and even offered a ride on the golf cart! Cleanliness It was clear Mark & Jacquie take immense pride in and work very hard to maintain the property. The cabin was spotless, VERY comfortable. We can't wait to visit again!

Perfect Cabin Perfect Hosts

Maggie's Farm was perfect for our anniversary getaway. The cabin has everything you would need and then some. Mark & Jacquie are wonderful hosts. The best we have ever encountered in all of our travels. The farm is a quaint & peaceful place to rest especially on the deck listening to the creek....my favorite spot. Mark & Jacquie have made their farm a beautiful & tranquil place to rest one's soul. The farm is close to many lakes, hiking spots, & the Blue Ridge Parkway. Close to Brevard which has some very good restaurants. If you ever have an emergency I can personally vouch for the Transylvania Regional Hospital. I got really good care in the ER there. Doctors & nurses were wonderful. If you are considering visiting Maggie's Farm just do it. You won't be disappointed!

A little slice of paradise

This cabin is just a few miles from our house and was rented for family members as we did not have enough room at our home. We all ended up spending some time there relaxing or fishing with grandkids. House was cozy and clean, Mountain View’s were great, Host Mark made sure everyone had what was needed.

We had a wonderful time at Mark and Jacqueline’s cabin. They were so helpful and kind. The cabin was perfect for a laid back, relaxing week. It was well stocked with essentials and a great location with stream, trout pond, and other fun things that entertained our 3 year old son. It was also close to Brevard and the Pisgah National Forest so it gave us plenty of opportunity to go out and explore. We would definitely stay there again!

We stayed a week and absolutely loved our stay. If you’re looking for serenity and beauty that surrounds you like a hug, you’ll want to stay at Maggie’s. We’ll be back with and without family since you can’t absorb all all there is in just 1 visit. Strongly suggest grabbing breakfast items and any grocery type before you get to the cabin(s). You’ll be happy you did because you just want to stay on the farm.

We stayed at Maggie’s Farm this August and I can’t say enough good things about the location and the hosts! Desperately needed a peaceful and restful getaway after the loss of my Mom. The accommodations were excellent, cozy and inviting. Everything you could possibly need was provided by the hosts. We brought our mini Pomeranian with us and she loves the creek. The vegetable and flower gardens were beautiful and we enjoyed fishing and and the local waterfalls. Jacquie and Mark incredibly warm and kind and really made our visit even more special. They made us feel welcome and are truly the heart of this amazing place. We will definitely be back and hope to bring our kids in the future.
