54 Meandering Way

Meticulously maintained and lightly used, this authentic log cabin is located in a thriving short-term rental–friendly development in Maggie Valley, yet has been primarily enjoyed as a personal second residence. The result is a home that offers rental flexibility while reflecting pride of ownership, consistent care, and limited wear.

This true log cabin features warm wood interiors throughout, hardwood flooring on the main level and pine floors upstairs, and a layout that lives comfortably for full-time use, second-home enjoyment, or vacation rental guests. A wide covered deck wrapping three sides of the home creates exceptional outdoor living—perfect for enjoying mountain air at any time of day—while seamlessly extending the living space outdoors. Mountain views and frequent elk sightings complete the classic Western North Carolina mountain experience, with wildlife often strolling through the neighborhood.

Recent updates and proactive maintenance provide peace of mind and long-term value. A new metal roof was installed in 2019, along with a custom heavy-timber framed carport and covered side deck, enhancing both durability and architectural appeal. A whole-house backup generator with a 350-gallon underground propane tank was also installed in 2019, capable of powering the entire home during outages. The log exterior and decks were professionally stained and treated, with the full cabin stained in 2017, decks and railings refreshed in 2019, and additional exterior areas re-stained in 2022, helping preserve the integrity and beauty of the log construction. The home’s central heating and air conditioning system was replaced in 2022, further reinforcing reliability and comfort. LeafFilter® gutter guards installed in 2024 ensure proper drainage and low-maintenance ownership.
