We were looking for a nice, quiet cabin on a creek that we could just relax at for the week.....and that's just what Creekside Cabin is. We really enjoyed sitting by the firepit while our dog enjoyed the creek. Great place! We will definitely be back.

If you don't have everything you need at this cabin, then you might need to rethink your needs. It was cozy, clean and there was even firewood for the large firepit. Sitting by the creek is the best way to start your day! The large porch facing the creek was a wonderful gathering area for us and our grown children. My family loved every minute! The host welcomed us and made sure we had everything we needed. We will return!

Absolutely lovely few days in the mountains. Property was well stocked, comfortable, adorable and peaceful. We spent many hours by the creek and our daughter loved the loft. Hosts were responsive and check in was easy. We look forward to staying here again.

My husband and I stayed four days at the cabin. We had an amazing time. The cabin was clean, the master bed was very comfortable, and the porch looking over looking the creek was so peaceful. We would definitely recommend this cabin for a quite, cozy stay.

This was our second summer spending a week at this wonderful property. We enjoyed spending every afternoon in the creek and dining on the back porch. The cabin is cozy and beautifully decorated with comfortable beds. The sound of the creek is perfect any time of day whether enjoying your coffee in a rocking chair, eating dinner on the porch, playing board games, or watching fireflies before bed. Highly recommend!

Fishing Trip

We loved being in the woods and in the mountains. My boyfriend absolutely loves the country out there he loves the mom and pop restaurants we loved everything about it had a wonderful time while we were there to visit and site see all the waterfalls. So beautiful if you love the country, mountains, site seeing/hiking, country cooking, mom and pop shops and somewhere with no service this is the perfect place!!!

It was a beautiful cabin in a beautiful area. It was difficult for our vehicle to make the driveway though and it absolutely would have been impossible in ice or snow. We had one problem while we were there and it was immediately taken care of.
